12 THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1874. _— REAL ESTATE. The Market Dull as to Transactions, but | Firm ds fo Price. Construction of Good but Cheap Houses—-Rents. The Klinois & Jlichizan Canal--- Washington Heights, The Loan - Market- _Transfers. The market for real estate continucs exceed- ingly dull in trapsactioue, but firm as to prico. Purchascs aré mainly limited to lots for improve- ment and occupancy by owners. Comparatively thero has been but a small business in this line during the past week. Thero1s still much dis- cassion a8 to whether prices have gone down to “the bed rock,” and until the impression bo- comea general that they have, purchases for in- vestmoni to any considerablo extent caanot be cxpected. Tho conviction among real estato holders seems to be well scttled that Chicago is to become coven before the contury closes tho great . central city of the contment, and hence those who can pay taxes and joterest, 1f they owe anythiog on it, hold on ¢o their property with immovablo teuacity. In an average of ten years it Las never yet failed 1o realize a handsome protit on all judicious in- vestmente. Whilo, therefore, the viows of hold- ers and purchasers are s0 far apart, sales will contiuue light. GOOD BUT CHEAP HOCSES. A pew featare in the building operations of the city is the covstruction of good but com- parative.y cheap houses by boss-mechanics. For iny'ance, a mason, carpenter, painters, and, porhaps, plumber, or any ome or two of tuem, will buy several vacant lots an some favorite recidence street. Moay widl put up a block of neat iwesne tenements with basemont, which, shen tnbed, they can sell for from 26,000 to €4,006. 1f purchasers do not immediately take suem, ‘he muson and carpeuter may eacn take two che painter and the plumber one each. In & ntla whle tuey are ull sold and the parties &re rasdy to put up anotber blocl, Tho low price of lebor and matorials enables builders to &rll at reasonublo figures, while they give em- ploymeut to their hands aud find themselves with a balance in bank at the close of the year. TLis is » clsss of houses very much ueeded for pooplo of moderate means.who misely deter:aine 10 live witkiu them. Tne system has been practiced for many years in Philadelphis, with the best of resnits both to the general welfara of thecity atid to the pecuniary advantaze of eaterpnisiug builders; many of whom Lave smassed large fortunes. Thus far at lenst we are glad to notice more taste znd varioty in the construction of theso L%ocks than one sees in the tiresume samecess of tho streets of Phulladel- bia. We learn that the demand for these Guges nearly keers pace with the supply. Let the building of thewn goan. The mora we have of them :ue better. no! ron cmcaco!! Our oldest citizens have not forgotten the quaiut but expressive mottoes they used to seo rudely painted on emigrant wagon-covers as tuo long ‘train of eettlers were moving Westward. Now, among_the wealthy men in all the cities of Hlinois, Western Michigan, lodiana, Iows, Wisconsin, Minnesota, sud the fever bus even reached Liansas aud Nebrasks, one can_see. with the mind's eve, stamped o2 their household gods! * Ho! for Chicago.” They have made fortunes, and the disposition 10 come Lere aud enjoy with us the advantages of = groat city has become wide-spread and coutrol- ling. Hereare our parks and splendid bouie- vards, soon 10 be completed for a circuit of 25 mifes} our public library ; our expositions, lec- tures, concerts, and operas; our besutiful lake with 1t8 health-giving breezes, with a score of otber attractions which wise fathers.and doting matrons wich their children to enjoy. They Imor that now, befure property and eversthing cise takes another surge upward, is just the time to invest and make for themselves a home anda future in the great social and intellectusl, as well as tho commercial and industrial, central city of America. They are coming, as we aro assured, in very sausfactory numbers, as the next ccnsus of our city will show beyond all question. RENTS. ‘We learn that places of Lusiness znd dwellings arc both 1n better request and rents cre a littio firmer. The people driven out by the July fire, and the steady increase of immigrants from all diroctions, have taken most of the heretofore unoccupied space in tho city. THE ILLINOIS & MICHIGAN CANAL. - Wo published lnst week s very intgresting commuuicatioa from the Hon. A. J. Gallowayon the importance of so improving the navigation of the Tlinois River to Jolict, and enlarging tha Tibnois & Michigan Canal as o admit the pass- age of Miseissippi steamers directly 1o this city. Tho compositor made some serious mistakes in the text, whicn Mr. Gallowsy correets in the fol- lowing note: o the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Si: In my brief communication of the 18th inst, your comyponitor makes me ssy that the widih of the Illinots & Michigau Canal, with 130 feet added, would Do 170 feet ; whereas it would be 190 feet at the bottom, the figures given in iy letter. “Tho slopies of the cinal banks are 2 feet horizontal 101 tuot vertical ; 50 that Barfaco breadth, with 8 feet depth of waterin the prism, would, with the eularge- ‘ment propozed, be 222 feat except in the rock cut bo- Iowthe * Sag,” where it would probably not exceed 200 feet, Luake this correctian, Lecsusc the Sgures published show an unwarrantable ignoranco upon my part with Tugard to the present capacity of the canal, Cuicado, Sept, 21, 1874., A.J.Garrowar. Our buriness men of the present day may wonder why this canal was originally not” mado of that capacity, and it may be well to give them hwro sowe iems in its HISTORY., At the timo the causl was projected there were two partics among the leading meu who were in favor of it. Onc conteaded thar the Illinois Ruver should be made navigablo by o meries of Jocks and dams to Jolict, snd tuonco to this city, tho canal should be made of a capacity to Ppass aoy steamer that could navigato tho Iilimois ¢ an ordinary stage of water, direct to this city. 8o firm wers they in their convictions that only such a caual could meet the wants of the North- wost that they procured a survey from the distinguished _engineer, 3Ir. " Wright, of the | Btats of New York, who proved thet the improve- ment could be made much cheaper tth) the * narrow ditch™ of hundred miles to LaSalle, aod that it wonld subserve - vastly better the commierce of tho Northwest. Most unfortn- nately. on tho other sido was an iuflucntial set of politicians, who had vieions of a fortano in tholown of LaSalle, the land of .which they owasd, at the southern terminus of the canal. Both the facts in regard to its construction and its valuo as a chanuel of commerce were greatly in favor of tho river improvement. 1ts frionds got it through the House, aud, just before an sdjenrument for dinner, it passed the Seuate by 2 mafority. That [dignor-hour 1 often big wilh évants, and in tlus caso it was charged that during that time several blocks in La- Balle _chauged Lands. When -the Sonste cama togetlier in the afternoon a motion to ro. coceider was adopted, and the bill was amended to buld the canal on the narrow gauge, and paesed by 2 majority. The .motion to recon- kider was voted down, and thus an improvement of onal importance was rendered local and tuzlly spoiled by the greed of a few scheming politicians. . Like Lhe harpios of old, they defile woatever their graspiog avarice . touches, The commearce of the. entire Northwest bas been ham, for a_genoration, and millions of money have been lost to our people through that act of shart-eighted, selish legislation. - The zansl cap never farnish adequato 1acilities to tho sommerce of the Northwest till it is enlarged to tho -generous proportions now ed - by Mr. Gallowzy, and {requently =dvocated by others. Booner or later it must Do done, and tho sooner the beizer for our city and the Northweat. WASHINGTON HEIGHTS. This suburb, extending from the sonth line of Lake Townehip sonthward to the Village of Bluo Islend, and over 1 mile in vidth, Gomprises Ppropertyas about 3,000 acres of aa fine residence. Eicre is in'the vicinity of Chicago. - 1t hoa a0 elevation Trom 60 to 90 foet above the lovel of Lako Michigan, and is skirted with Iarge forest trees.” This land has been subdivided into lota, " blocks, " and ~acro tricts, with < all tho pecessary avenues 2id stroets to make it destrakls and conveniont a8 a place 0f rasidence. ‘The owners bave formed 'themselves into an ern Railroad authoritiea by which a froo pass to the city for threo years is given to overy person owning a lot and residing thereon. “The Bluo Ialaud Land snd Building Com- paoy " have mado and are also making extensive improvements. “'ho Chicago & Southero Railroad, now com- pleted from the city to Thoruton, where it makes connection with the Chicsgo, Daoville & Vin- cenes Rrailrond, runs along the west ridge of Washington Heights, aud has located stations at evers section aud half section lino, and will run from four to eight passcuger _trains _each way daily to secommodate those who resids in tho vicinityof tho road.

Sereral negotiations Lave becu brousht to a conclusion the past week, but busioess as a whole has not boen satisfactory. In number, tho loans are neariy on a par with 1873, but the average of each 1s much smallor. It is thonghs that the flurry in insurauco matters will have an unfavorable influence. Thero is no doubt that the immediate ¢ffect of the withdrawal of the insurance compasies will be to bardon the mar- ket, notwithstanding tho amplo supply of money that is sccking investment i this city. We say ample supply, because although thore is not so much mouey offcring a8 thero was a few weeky ago,” yet good gccurity caa always com- mand ~ the funds in Chicaago, especially with the reputation we enjoy of paying interest promptly. Tho ~ fact thao capitalists are not slow to invest in city real es- t=to shows a closr confidenco in_our condition, and ought to bo suflicient to assure the National Doard of Underwritors that risks in Chicago are not so dangerous as their threatenod activi in- dicates. Foreign financial iustitutions are still losning money in this market. The Northwost- ern Mutual, Connecticut Mutual, and Charter Oak Life-Insurance Compauies hLave invested 79,000 in city property tho past week. 'Chese lonng are less than they were last year, when they amountad to $196,000, but it must be re- coliectod that the apgregate amount of loans in any month or week of 187+ geuerally falls vory far short of any month or week of 1573, The heavy actual loans of the past week have beeu as follows : $40,000 to the Plymouth Con- regational Society, five yoars, at 9 per ceni; $110,000 secured by trust deed on four lots in tho recently-burnt district, liva years, at 9 per cent ; §20,000 secured by mortgago on certain lots in Canal Trustecs, Subivision w 14 Sec. 27, 39, 14, five vears 0 percent.

Tho owners will probably try to oxchanga it for grain in atore, 80 as to save the cost of olovation and inspection. If it break down prices it will have served its purpose equally well aa 1f placed in store. 1t was suggestod to-day that the wheat is kept away from the inspectors, probably because ita owners aro afraid 1t would not pass our ngid inspection, but this is undoubtedly only * a weak invention of the enemy " The leading produce markets wero steadier to- day, without weakuess, though out receipts were large, New York dull, and the shipping move- ment vory slow. The fact of large receipts had been anticipated, and discounted in advance, hence tho peculiar feeling. The business irans- acted was very largoly in optious, and bad ref- erence to the fact that Septomber will go out in ablazo of epeculative glory next Wednesday. Four corners in one month, in spite of & new law against thom, ought certainly to satisfy the most fastidious of advocates of the kingly power, which can command the waves of the ocean'to recede at pleasure. Tho demand for dry zoods was not specially active, but a very fair aggregate of sales was ac- complished, and, all things cousiderad, tho mov ment was probably up to genoral expectations. Groceries continue active, with most Liues firmly hold. _No prico-changes wero noted, but in coffees and sugars an advance secms imminont, and some other descriptions also display a hard- eving tendency. In the butter market thero was activity both on local and interior account, and sales were quick at fully late quotations, or at 16@27c for inferior to good, and at 3'@ 3d5¢c for choice to extra.

Common lumber, 85 usual, is thoe quality mostly in demand, and many grades, among them joists, scantling, and fencing, sare firm, under light stocks for the time of vyear, and little prospect of bringing the supply up ‘to the ordinary winter ‘standard, owing to the rofusal of manufacturers to disposs of their lumber a: the current prices for cargoes. The offsrings of the wholegale market aro smaller than at this time a ear ago, when there was almost no salo for fum'ber at any price. The common grades are tending upward, owing solely to their scarcity. Tho hardware merchants report a fair business with country,deslers, who huve taken advaatage of the railroad excarsions to visit the Exposition and lay in what. goods they may need, thus' killing two birds with ono stonc, Prices for metals, iron, nails, and manufacturéd works are for the most part steadr, aad, for some articles, tending upward.
