Continuanco of a Fair Business in the Sale of Cheap Lots. The Desire to Own Homes--Changes in House-Rents, Recent Sales---The Belt Railway-=-The New Northwestern Shops. Transfers for the Weelk, Thoro is little to say about the condition of the real estato market, oxcopt to repent sub- atnntially what was enid last woak, viz.: that thero is still an active busincss in the snle of cheap lots in tho suburbs, and but little doing in tho highor-priced proporty in the central part of thocity. Tho fact is that, oxcopt s regards bueiness property, the traflle in real estalo has boen affacted by the flnancial crisis logs than al- most any othor branch of business in this city. ‘Wo hear, almost daily, of offors of monoy from partios in both Eastorn and Western towns for lots in GChicago, A largo proportion of thoso offors, however, result in nothing, because the parties who make them expect to buy at largo reductions on former prices. On tho other hand, we hoar of sevoral picces of un- improved medium and firat-class residenco proporty, in somo of tho principal residonco quarters, being sold for from 156 to 20 per cent less than was domanded for it boforo the panic. Bul in ovory such case tho considoration for the. reduction in price has boon a largo cash pay- ment. Any ono who is obliged to sell renl estate at any time, of courso, only does so to get ready cash,—an articlo which, a8 everybody knows, is 60 scarco just now that o Iorgo cash payment canonly belad by an important reduction in price. < Tho financial crisis, which hss now lasted two months, has had tho effect toturntheattention of alnrgo class of smell capitalistsand salaried men totho consideration of the fact that the best thing & man can have for his monoy, and the first thing ho ought to acquire with his savings, isa home. Intho flush timesand speculative spirit which prevmled for sovernl yoars up to two months ago, thoro was o great .temptation tospeculato or trado in somothing that fluctu-~ ated rapidly in price. The marvelous increaso of the wealth of some of the groat speculators in grain or stocke’’ or in mnew trade and monufacturing (schomes, lad imbued the whole peoplo of this country with an impationco to make money by some sort of financiering. Thonsands of men were fascinatod with the exnmplo of the stock speculators in New York or tho grain speculators of Chicago. They wsre ambitious of making in one day. by “a turn” in wheat or corn, or iock Island or Northwestorn, orsomo other one of tho hun~ dred modes of gambling, as much proflt as o yoor's ealary. ‘To oll who bad become in- fatuated with this impationt spirit of spocu- lation, tho investment of monoy in o homeo had becomo an *‘old fogy,” consorvative iden. VWives, who saw that tlio fortunes of their husbands_were daily hazarded on iho fluctua~ tions of “price of "Eomoe commodity or fancy stock, often urged tho sccuring of o homeo their own, reo from tho monthly calls of a land- ford. But tho usual anewer of tho husband to this was that he could moke more out of his capital by using it overy day in trado or specula- tion. If ho locked it up in s home Lo could got no return for it but tho enving of the rent, which, he could alwnys prove by his fino figures, was too small a profit. But now tho day of speculation i over; money is not o ensily borrowed, and the occupation of those who traded on mariz‘ina has gone, Economy in orsonnl and houschold oxpenditure is tho rule. en who despised the modost homes which they would havo bean abla. £o own aad proforted living in the moro protentious oncs for which thay could only pay rent from month to month, -find that they must chango their senlo of oxpon- diture ; honeo they must look for chenper and emallor houses. A chango of this kind {8 always humiliating, and they regret that they did notbuy tho smallor houso whon hoy wero nhf’ . Notwith- standing tho specious figures of those who at- tempt to prove that it is cheaper to board at a lotel or private boarding-houso, it is cortain that tho economy in dress, washing, and many other things, that can bo practiced at home, are imposgiblo in & public house, Thus, the atten-~ tion of many n man is now turned to tho acquisi tion of o cheap home, who would nover have listoned to it in the flush times of speculation. DWELLING IIENTS. The change in the scale of living expenscs, as oxplained ubove, nccounts for tho greatly in- crensed demnud within tho past month for hiousos to ront from €50 to $60 por month, and the falling off in tho domand for resi- dences that heve ronted for $1,200 per annum and upward, It scoms protty cortain that thero must bo o reduction of from 10 to 20 er cont in the. rentals of all residences that nve commandod a8 much ns $100 per month, whilo on the other hand cottages that havo rent- ed av 526 to 840 per month will be moro in de- mand than evor, P ‘There is considerable demand for residences rarging from £6,000 to 812,000 on tho South Si(‘lo‘ but it is diticult to find such dwellings for salo, ACRE BALES, Gustin & Wallaco gold 62 acres, being Block 8, in Dale, Gustin & Wallace's Addition to Park Ridge; cousidoration, 34,875, Also, 483 feot in “Terry & Meacheur's Subdivision of Dark Ridge ; cousidoration, £5,784, Johu Jones sold, on Friday, 10 acres located in Ruesell's Subdivision in _Hydo Park, about 13 miles from the Court-Houso; coneideration, 360 por acro.

RAILROAD NEWS Suspension of the California & Texas Construotion Company. History of the Company---The Work It Has Accomplished. A Big Transfer Boat at Cairo-Con- struction and Consolidation. Businoss on tho varions railroads in this city is oxcoedingly dull at presont. Not a road in the oity, with tho oxcoption of the Chicago & Alton and tho Chicago & Paducah, is carrying onany construction at present, and, besider making retronchmonts twhorovor possiblo, the wages of all tho employos on our roads hava hoon reduced. The suspension of the California & Toxas Consiruction Company added greatly to tho dopressod fecling already oxiating, The ahovo Company was organized for tho pur- poso of coustructing tho Toxas & Pacifio Rail- rond, from Shrevoport, L., to San Diego, Cal. Tho road is already comploted to noar Fort Worth, =a distanco of 300 miles. The Company's heavy lines of discounts, mado to prosccnto the work on tho road, in auticipation of tho nogotiation of aloan in Europo, proved too heavy for oven a combina~ tion of tho strongest financial mon in the coun- try to carry through the prosont unexampled stringency of tho money maorket. Tho notes of tho Construction Company are indorsed by Col. Thomas A, Bcott, Mathew Baird, John McNa-' mara, and other capitalists, to tho amount of sbout 84,500,000, ali of which will maturo within o fow doys. In addition, the Construction Com- pany has 600,000 of unsecured obligations in the shape of drafts, and $1,600,000 of loans on col- Interals and individusl aceurity, and 250,000 of. flonting dobt, making an nggregatoe of $7,000,000. in labilitios. Tho amount thus raised, nnd: 4,000,000 pnid in cash by tho stockholders of the Construction Company,makeaaltogother 811,000, 000 that has been exponded on the construction of the Toxns & Pacific Railroad. For this amount of money tho Construction Company has to show 300 miles of comploted, equipped, and oporated raflrond, from Shroveport to Dillas,: from DMorshall to Toxans, and from Shor- man toward Paris, and 140 miles in addition ara graded, bridged, and supplied with ties ready for the iron. Tho fact that, the Company suspended payment, and that Col. Thomas A. Scott is tho indorsor of soveral millions of tho notes , as well a8 the Prosidont of the Toxas & Pacifio, gave riso to tho rumors about the fallure of Ool. Beott. As yot Col. Scott has not failed, but whethor he will be ablo to weather the storm is o matter of groat doubt among our leading rail- way men. Should he go under, then thero is no doubt that every railroad company in tho coun- try will suffer moro or leas, and for this roason a panicky fecling vxists among railvay magnates in this ecity.

CONSTRUOTION AND CONSOLIDATION. It is roported that officors of tho Erie ang Atlantic & Great Wostorn Companies are making arrangements for tho conatruction of the Galion, Logansport & Chicago Railrond. It i proposed to build tho rond on a lino nearly parallol to the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayno & Chicago, from Galion tothis city. The Company was organized in Ohio a fow months since, The Cincinnati, Lufayetto & Chicago Railrond bas recontly mado an agrooment of consolidation with tho Indinnapolis, Cincinnati & Lafayetto Inilrond, The road s now 57 miles long, from Temploton, Ind., northwest to the Illinois Con- tralat Kunkakeo, Il It is nid that, 08 a rosult of tho consolidation, the road will at'onco Lo ex- tonded from the prosent torminus at Tomploton enstward 18 miles to Lafayetto. Its trains now use tho track of tho Lafayotte, Muncio & Bloom- inglon Road, botween Tompleton and Linfayatte. ‘I'ho Indianapolis, Cincinnati & Lafayotte Come pany will then have a rond 253 miles long, from Cincinnati to Kankakee, GOING_INTO ITON, The officers of the Louisville, Now Albany & Chiengo Iailrond are cousidering o plan for ex- tending tho business of tho Company, and also entering tho iron business. According to the plan, soveral short branches are to bo built from the main lino to conl-mines in Martin, Owen, aud Groono Countios, in Indiana, and to the iron- doposita in Martin, Monree, Putnam, and Greono Countics. In connoction with thoso, blaste furnaces will bo built at New Albany, Ind., and oxtonsivo coal dopots established in New Albany and Louisvillo, THE LARE SUTEBIOR IRON BEGIONS. The largely increased issue of mining gcrip in the Lake Superior region is croating sorions embarrasssmonts, Orders are filled by Chicago and Bastorn morchants, and paymenta mado currency that cannot casily be redeemod. Iron money i8 decidedly ata discount. Itis one of tho “incidents of tho fluancial crisis thot this region, 8o boundlesaly rich in natural resources, is suddenly impov- orished becauso itu hitherto desirable product ia o drug upon tho marlket. The Marquotte, Hough- ton & Ontonegon Railrond has, porhaps, 1n- creased tho ombarrassments by 18suing its own sight drafts, payablo in New York, whithor they will bo sent for rodomption baforo the Company bes received much penofit from tho issue. Aa- ded to tho gonoral dopression is tho inconven- ience caused by tha unuxveulefl potoring out of the iron oro business. Whon Gov. Bagley, last. summer, announced that_the Sault 8to, Mary’s Canal would bo closod on Nov. 14, there was a tarritic howl throughout the Poninaula, and loud thrents of secession from Michigan wore made. Sinco the panic and the decline of iron, their in- dignation has vanished with the businoss, and they would not now object wero tho canal to ba closed noxt weelr. Tho total shipmonts of ore and pig-jiron thue far this senson are: From Muarquotte, 630,600 tons; and from Escanabn, 476,446 tous, making a total of about onc-half tho amount the mine-ownors lnst winter con- fidontly predictod would be shippod this season.
