RENTS. o much bas been gaid about the number of anoccupied 5tores in Chicago that it is worth Whilo to give the facts. As has been beforo pxplained in these columns, when the businees gistrics was Tebuilt it wos greatly extended. {re are taunted with single, occasional unoccu- piedstores. W can point to blocks of occapied Hores where before stood shabby rows of ghanties. The stores on ‘Wabash avenue that are sscant are thoso which were built hastily and rougbly for occupation while the business dis- trict was being rebuilt. If they were still in use, and the business dietrict was completely §lled, it would be the most marvelons growth of aucient or modern times. The fact is, that when the men of Chicago built after the fire, they built not only for their present use, but for the growth of years to como. ‘This was but an- cther instance of the foresight snd business “gbiliry that bas made this term what it ia. There sre numbers of ofiices and businoss lofts vacant, but the men for whom they were built are on {he'road, nnd will arrive within two yesrs. In- torviews with men like Potter Palmer, J.C. Dere, William M. Derby, Perkins Bass, and others, inextricably interested in the prosperity of Chicago, show that they agree in the expecta-~ tion that in two yeasall the store and ofiice- room will be in demand. If their expectationis realized, 28 it doubtlesa will be, neitber New York uor any other city in the country wiil have £ach a record of growth to display. To give an 1dea of tho real proportion of un- reated stores, two streets were selected by THE TRIBUNE reporter, representing tho best and the poorest business property in the city,—adison street, which now lLss ‘more stores than Ran- delph’ and Madison formerly had, and Wabash avence, from Van Baren street to the river. .~ On badison s:reet, out of 255 stores, 11are for rent, aud those aro at the cast and west ex- tremities of tue street, the stores in the centre teing ol rented. Oa Wabash avenue, out of 180 storce, 16 aro vacant and for reat. T other streets, as in Laie, there are some un- occupied stores. The Dickey Dlock, corner of Dearborn and Lake, is vacant. Stul, to show {he coutiaenco 1n the fatare which exiets, thero are stores Lulding in different parts of tho busi- ness quarier. Mr. E. H. Hadduck is bulding 1w0 siores on the coruer of Wabash avenue and Monroe sireet, to cost £80,000. Mr. Scoville is buiiding & store on Madison street, east of Fiankin, to cost £37,000. On South Water Fireet thero is not an empty store. "T'he present aspect of tho’ Tenting business is culiar to this Tear. As a usual thung, the first sy of May sees evcry ono on the way 1o tieir new premiser, Lut, contrary to all former cus- tom, tho demand still holds on to the present time, somewhat abszed, perhaps, but atill strong enoash to dizclose tie fact that the practice of fixiug on the 1st of May a3 a necessary,period for the completion of leases Lins been, 103 large measate, sbandoned. There 18 also apparent on {he part of inqairera for honses a firm deter- minaton toges o redaction in ratos. This, Lowever, is generally accorded without disputs by landlords. Tho carcity of houses was for the past two yeus 3 suflicient reason for high rates, cod tho fact that the city is rebuilt in 2ll periculars is eutiicient reason why thcy ebould retura ¢o toe former tariff of prices. Among the Jeases signed during the week was thatof the Bands House stuated on Fifth avenue. This Hotel has beca taken by E. A. Gay, who former- Iy keot the Stanwix Hall, at Albany, and latterly Gav's Hotel of Roctester. It will be keptasa hotel for tranrient gaests. Ono of tho heaviest house sgents on the Noith Side reports all the dwelling houses on Lis list 1ented. The demand for stores has not been &8 good, and & namoer on Clark streot ate Bl withous tenanis. Rents bave followed very much the same conrse in New York as in Chicago. Tho New York Tirmes soys thas tho season has,if soy- thing, been a depressing one to owners, and in Dot cities there are to-day on the agents’ cata- logues, a larger number of bouses unoccupied thaa has been the case for years. In numerous cases the reporter saw and read agents' lists of from fifty to 100 houses which are standing ten- autess. In cne instance, that of a well-known « Brooilyn real estate agent, a_pecaliar fact was devcioped, for, whils ho had sctually let more bouses {his season taan st any previous period sizce he bad been in the business, be bad also oo bend 3 fist of three times as mauy housesstill wtenanted as he had ever before bad remaining 2t tlus season. Tne logic of this was cersaiuly thet s very large number of peoplo were giving up bouseseeping and removing; first, from the fact that the agent bad been intrusted with:a Lirger number of rents to megotiate, and next beczuze he had had many remairng for which bowasunable to find customers. The geueral experience of Brooklyn agents has been that a 7o proportion of families have either given Up honsekeeping altogether or have taken flats andapartment accommodation. Quite a consid- enbie number of the bouses rented this season Eavo been taken for boarding-honse putposes. Anothser featuze of the Brooklyn season has been tiat 2 large share of the leases effected have been takea by New York families, and in this Farall the circumstances powt clearly to the fazt that domestic reirenchment is tha order of theday. New Yorkers never go to Brooklyn to live unless it is with the idea of obtaining cheaper fentals, and the facts show that the removals from Broollyn to New York this season have been inconsiderable.

There isa great demand, houseagents ssy, for tlats, or houses built in apartments for sep- arate families. People who cannot atford to pay £80 to $100 per mouth rent -would be very glad to take 2 suite of rooms, if such were to be had. Several apartment houses are now building on the North Side and West Side, and the rooms have all been taken, even though mot yet fin- ished. Thoreare many renl advantages in this eystem of apartments for peoplo secking either to economize or to escape the unavoidable care of keeping up a large house. Tne cheap build- ing we bavo formerly had gives us great waste of space, and very inconvenient and badly-bwilt Louses. In thc apartment house we have good ventilation, well regulated heat, suflicient ligat. and thoroughly excellent and enlightened meth- ods of bumilding, at & mmimum of cost which cannot be reached in siogle bwldings. The supply of this kind of homes is not at al! equal to_the demsnd, The demand is greatest on the North Side, and comes mainly from people who lLived in cottages beforo the firs. Theso have been burned, and on Ac- connt of the firo ordinance canpot be replaced. Thoir former occupants seek for flats iu prefer- ence to boarding. MODERATE LOUSES FOR. MODERATE MEAXS. Last week we presested Jr. Josizh Quiucy’s lan for moderate houscs for moderate meaus, r. Quincy’s idea was that workingman might provide themselves with pleasant and permanent homes by co-operating both in the purchase of Jand and in the erection on it of small houses. The St. Louis Globe has_recentlr published an article w hich shows that the capitalistsof thatcity understand tho demand for good but small dwellings, and aro meeting 1t in & manner which might welt be imitated by thoze of Chicago. The Globe publishes these statistics of the new buildings begun in the first four months of 1873 and 1874 10 St. Louis. In the first four months of 1673 and 1874 there were under contract : The buildiogs of 1874 are thus clussified, with their cost: . wemerismissarnsne Ol SHEBAT In Chicago there have been certainly not less than fifty five-story buildings since January. In St. Louis, one. Thete have been 2t least fifty four-story buldings erected during the samo tume in Chicago, but only six in St. Louis. Houses in Chicago averago thrce-sturios and basement, ata costof $6.200. St. Louis bas built 575 bwo-Btorv houses io these four months ata cost of £2,308 apiece. There is no use in eaying, ss some will, that Chicago puts up five-story_houses aud no_one-story honses, because sbe is 3 greater city than St. Lonis, an that she has no need of such humble siructures. Thero is need of them. There ismore ueed of them than of the five-story houses. House- sgents have ugreed on 2t least one thing, that the demand this vear is for small houses and low rents. Large numbers of householders have given up their houses, and gone to boarding to escaps Ligh -repis: There ore hundreds of euch families ;. and there 18 lenty of land and plonty of capital that could Do pok to no better use than tho crection of 1,000 or 2,000 of smali brick dwellings for fami- 1ies of moderate means, who cau pay from $400 to 2600 & year rental. NEW YORE. " The New York Lerald reports that the build- ing trades have not for a long time shown such dullness. With the zeneral volume of business thronghout tho country largely reduced, s falling off, of course, was to bo expecied boro as else- whers ; bus the present ontlook is most discour- aging beyond tEn.z legitimate expectation, snd with_ the uncertainty arising from the fre- | Quency of strikes, tho beavy tax im- Mosed. upon _capital secking _emplos- ment 1o this direction, by the operation of the Eizht-Hour law, as well as the Impossi- bility of formiog contracts for future perform- ance during the recent protracted uncertninty a8 to what was or was likely to be the measute of our carrency valaes, all [hese things have com- bined to check operations in this direction. Prices of building materials have gooe down without any corresponding consumption, being marked down rather with su efiort to excite trade than becanse of any demand to warrsot the foregoing of the largest profit. There is yet time,, however, for o revival in this direction, and with the scttlement of the financial question by the President’s veto against the chance of in- flation, builders’ loans being more readily ad- justable. if the trades-unions can only be made to understand their real interests and meet the bosees on fair terms, there is oo reason why this vear may not yet be mado memorable in the annals of this city for buildiog improyements. il e SALES OF THE WEEK.

As was shown yesterday in TaE TRIBUSE, in the elaborate article reviewing the condition of the busmess of Chicago in all departments, there is more meney offering on good real es- tate than is called for. ‘The amount of mort- gazes has been greatly overstatod, and the difi- Cuities of obtaining loans misrepresented. The amount of indebtednexs on city and suburban property is fram $60,000,000 to $80,000,000. As ono Gealer has exprensod it, there is $2 worth of property for every 81 of mortgage. There is property on which cavitalists are unwilling to advance monoy. Such is that on Wabash avenue souch of Van Buren, and such is s large part of the unimproved suburban property, but no one with improved inside property not already mort- gagcd up to the margin that londers reserve, cau ave any dificulty in getting money a: reason- able rates. 1t is the exception and not the rule that Chicago mortgagers cannot meet their lia- bitities. They owe & great deal of money, but it is not lost. 1t is in their atores or their stocks, and is earning more than tho interest. Easiern capitalists have been attracted here in the hope of taking advantage of what seemed to be s pressure, but Chicago people do not give them the advantages they seek. Our business men and land-owners bave the most perfect coatidence in tho futuro of this city, and are determined to hold their own. The best Froof of this is the fact that no property is put up for ssle at o sacrifice. If the prices wunted cannot be obtained, holders will wait till they can be. The interest on mortgnges is promptly paid, betcer paid than ninety desa ago. There are few appl:cations for loans. The sup- ply of money is ample.

Duriug the week meetings of the Directors of the Chicago, Dauville & Vincenses Railroad bave been held 1n New York, and a!l the arrangewcnts completed for the asmgnment of its interests in the ‘Thornton branch to the Chicago Southern.

A suggestion Las beea made during the past wesk regarding tho futuie use of Usion Park which seems eminootly seasible. Itis that hereaf:or the pari ehould be closed to the passage of all vehicles and given over cntirels to thousa of pedestrians. Tho absurdity of hav- ing a drivewny througa & perk of the limited eizo of Union Park is apparcnt, In fact, it must operate to its disadvantage 8S A resort in any sense, for, while it males it disagrocabls to those on foot and dangerous to children play- ing aboat, 1t is not sufiiciently attractive or am- ple to induce those out for a drive to seck it 10 any numbers. 'As the larger parks aro comlng_into use for dnivoways, it would be better if all the smaller places we:s horeafter kept eimply for play- yrounds and resorts for families Lving in the neighborhood. In this case, they would be safe and attiactivo spots where chil- dren could run about without danger. There are a number of such ParEs or squaresin New York City, and upon a summer's day they ate thronged with visito:s. It 18 undersiood that a petition will be circulated amoug the residents in the meighboghood of Union Darkk aeking tho Common Council to exclude vehicles from that Plensurs ground. NORTH SIORE DOATING BASIN. The projectod improvements along the norlh shore, which are to be uudertaken by she Lin- cola Park Commissioness, are now fairly under way. It wos aecided somo weeks ago to build a breakwater extending from Diversy street to XNorth avenue, being a mile and 2 kalt in length, and ruoning paraliel st a distance of 200 fuet from theehore line. This will auswerthe double purposs of protecting the driveway from the action of the waves, and will also furnish an area of etill water for tho use of pleasare-noats. S.nce the basin has becn fil.ed, thers has been no available place about the city where this smusement could be indalged in with safety. ‘The action of the Commissioners will no doubt meet with general approbation, and prove a benefit to thet portion of the city. Euds for ihe work, of which & numbor havo been received, vary in price from $3.50 to 13 per ranning foot. THE NEW OPERA-HOUSZ. 5 Alr. Tilisy has the plans for tue new npora- houea nearly completed. Taera bave beon a great many visitors at bis rooms daring the week, to view tue paperaspect of tho building.

Total ..y e THE LAKH FRONT-CORRESPOND- ENCE. o the Editor of The Clicazo Tribune: Sir: Among the specious schemes advanced in the Council todefeat the proposedsaleof the Lako Front to the railroads, the plan soggested of sabdividing the three blocks and solling tho same by the lot, is ono that should be carefully watched. Yhile bearing a fair face, it is really but & paltry trick, o shallow that any one who gives it an earnest look will, in common parlance, ges through it ™ at once. Tho city has 80 incompleta a title to this prop- erty that no one but the railroad companies would buy it at any pnce and take a quut-claim deed. How perfectly absurd. therefore, it wonld bo for the city. to attempt to scll under & titlo wrich it is certain at tho outset no one but sn unscrupulons speculator would teke. Sup- pose that the three blocks should be cut up and duly offered for . zale,—it might be, thst soms far-seeing Alderman, or his.friends, might be temyted to socure ons or two of the lots, s0as to retain such & control of xhapmy as might compel the railroads st some dsy to buy $367,177 them oat at & magnificent profit. To attempt to sell the property in such & manuer wonld s downright freud upon the community, and, of course, cennot be serionsly entertained. The Michizan svenuo property-holders have certain rights which must be respected. That thoy have ‘‘an eesement” in the lake frontisa fact which is beyond dispute. This gives them a voire in the settlcment of this question which should be listened to, and, if not listened to, wiil by and by make itaclf heard. Thero are no property-holders in the city who have suffered 50 much since the fire as those who are so un- fortuvate as to hold lots fronting upon the “#Lale Pari.” Their views, therefore, aro just~ 1y catitled to some consideraticn. These prop- erty-nolders sre upanimous that something sbould be done to extricate their property from the ““ Slough of Despond ™ into which, through inaction or indifference, it has been sunk. A grand depot, such ns the railroads wish to build, would infase new life into an elegant but u;fled&d thoroughtfare. It would give naim- pulss which would result in making Michigan ovenue, a8 far south as Harrison, and perhaps Twelfth street, cne of the notlest business streets in tho city. In consideration of this fact, these loug-suffering ovuers of Michigan avenme lots are’ willing to surrender to the rail- roads the legal rights in the ‘‘Lake_ Front™ which tnoy unquestionably posscss. By doing 80 they are aware that they will receive an ample equivalent. But they do not propese to smiren- der these Tights to any other party, and least of all to any eet of speculators whom tho Chicago Cizy Council may appoiat, or into whoso hands they may rlay. 1L is very well to talk about the cltr’s perfect- ing its title, but this would be extremolv diticult toaccomplish. It would take much time and monev to effect. And_afcer all was done that conld be done, the riparian rignt or * easement” of the property-holders would remain, and many o guit for damages would the city have to con- front should it dispose of this property to any F:me: whatsoever, without the conseat of the t-owners on Michizan avenue. Thesa Michi- gan avenae proverty-holders, while looking to their own interests, are by no meaus oblivious of the interests and welfare of the city at large. The railroads companies not only profose to make payment in cash, at a time when the city greatly needs the morey, but they are willing to plodga themselves to eréct upon the proverty a superb and exteneive bmld ng, which will pot only be of benefit o Michigzan avenue, bat will moieover be an immense convenienco and & pel munent sichitectural ornamont to the cit; It scoms upaccountzblo thet any hon- est and intelligent member of the City, Council should for a moment hesitate what to do. The public are clamorous for the sale. The propertv-holders deeire it. Every tax-parer and business man . favors it. The prees unanimously sunport it. There is no valid renson why the szle should not be made, and no sound reason can be advanced why it should not b consummated without further delay. The talk about what the proporty may be worth in the fature 18 mere foolishuess. What i3 it worth now, anid whatcan be got for it in monev at a time when the money is actually needed to meet the debts of the city? TLe. this property be £old without anv more idle talking ; but let there be no subdivision of it 1nto lots for the benefit of private specalators, or for the benefit of those who Wonlémruin the city, unleas thoy cav contrive some plan by which they may eurich thomuclves. i J.
