The Sales and Trades of the Past Week. Yalues in the Burnt District of Wabush and Michigan Avennes. The Loan Market Has Mare Funds than Borrowers. Operations in Suburban Property =--Building. THE WEEK'S BUSINESS, There havo been some NOTEWOETEY TRANSACTIONS in the real estate market this week, althongh the general featares of the situation remain un- changed. Thosalo of the corner of Peck court and Wa- bash avenue, morthwest, has excited attention as confirmstory of the values of property in tbat quarter as indiested in the ssle of 40 fcet by Mr. Alfred Cowles, in. the block just south, s few weeks ago, for 9300 a foot. The purchaser was Mr. J. K. Fisher in both cases. He paid 400 a foot for iholot at the corner of Peck court, tho differ- ence fairly reprosenting the advantage of the situation. Considering the prescnt state of af- fairs on Wabash avenus in that vicinity, THESE PRICES ARE GOOD. It i3 unceriain bhow soon, if =2t all, or under what copditions, & horse-railway will be laid on the avenune. Unlike State street, nothing has ‘been dope in that part of Wabash avenue to re- puir the dovastation of the July fire. Its im- mediate future is nocertain; the situation is an admirable one for boarding-houses, but whether # will retain its attractions depends largely upon the success with which a much less de- sirable class of tenants, that have made somo inroads thers, aro excluded. In conpection with the sale of this corner, tho wite of the Jewish Synagogue of Anshs Maario 1ili the recent fire, womay state that the congre- gation has bought the church of the Trinity Epiacopal congrogation ot tho corner of Michi- | gan avenueand Twenty-sixth strest, and will immediately prepare it for Hebrow worship. They paid 220,000 cash for the building snd lot, with the organ and church furniture. MICHIGAN AVENUE, NORTH. of Mr. Scammon’s unforiunate siructures on Congress street, has been virtually abandoned since the fire of 1871. The owners of Ter- raco Row and the other fine residence blocks that used to adorn that part of the city have not seen their cortainzy that embarrassed owners in Wabash proper:y has changed hands. In thelast three weoks there bave been several sales showing that capitalists begin to look upon investments here 88 likely to be profitable. 1r. John B. Lyon has bougbt & 40-foot lot of NMr. Horace White, 160 feet suuth of Monroe street. on the west side of Michigan avenue, for £16,000 5 Mr. J. K. Fisher bouglt recently in the Gardner House block at the same rate, £400 s foot. During the past week B, L. Honore has sold 40 feet on Michigan asenue, botween Monroe aod Adams streets, for $400 per foot. - These prices are CONSIDERADLY LELOW the values'of the period betore the fire ; and are coosidered by otber bolders adjecent to be too low even under the presest unencouraging as- pects of the situation, ‘There bave been some other notable sales of city property during the week. The Humboldt Park Residonce Association sold ninety-five_lots on Bismarck street, west of Rockwell, to Elias Greenebaum, for £65,000. i Suyder & Leoe have eold to Michael W.

W. P. Jones sold the undivided one-half of three ncres on_tho Iske-shore at Evanston for $5,850, to J. W. Keaneds. s LA THE LOAN MARKET. There is but little now to note. THE MARKET 18 DULL, with no prospect of improvoment for some weelks to come. There is abandance of money soeking investment, and ' those’who can produce thoe necossary security aro roadily accommodated at 9 por cent. 3 1In tne number of instruments filed for record thera is no great change, but the consideration is generally for small amounts, and reprogents very fow actual loans. Just now thore appears to bo too much of a feverish apxiety to do business, and we note that parties who aro refused loans in ono quarter meet with no difficnlty in anoth- er, whero security is not scanned so clogely. Thera is no complaint with regard to the prompt payment of interest. During the week ending Dec. 19, 1873, tho con- sideration of mortgngeswas mncreased by a mort- gago given by the Lake Shoro & Michigan South- ern Railway Company to the Union Trust Com- pany of New York, to secure bonds amounting to 25,000,000, psyable in thirty yoars, bearing in- terest at 7 per cent.

The business of the banks has been more ac- tive to-day. The domaud for loans increasod “uinowhat, not on account of any particular development of the trado of the city, but from miscellancous sources. Merchants aro borrow- ing in anticipation of possible ncods about tho 18t of Jaunary to meot accruing engagements. The packers znd grain men till hold aloof, find- 1ng no opportunity for profit in borrowing money. Rates of discount are quotablo at 10 per cent to regular customers, with concessions to indopend- ent borrowers ; stroet rates aro 8@18 por cent; ronl-estate loans are 8@10 per cont. The clearings for the day are $4,000,000; for the week the cleariuga are £23,593,753.44, and the balances $2,018,100.20; for the correrpond- ing week of last yoar the figures wero £18,770,~ 883,50, and $2,101,220.67, respectively. The rate of exchango was firm at 7S¢ pre- mium, botween banks, for 81,000. Tho demand was active, tho country banks ordering large amounts to New York. Shipments of currency East were made to-day. Tho receipts of currency were light, as has been tho caso all the week, The receipts, which come from various quarters, were larger, but thero is no movemont, either way, to amount to much. The Louisville & Nashville Railroad Company to-day completed tho negotiation of a loan of £1,000,000 for two years at 7 per cent, on plodgo of bonds owned by the Company. The speculation in mining stocks continnes to run high in California. The sales at tho San Francisco Stock Board for the past week foot up 2 valuo of §7,483,000. The effect on the material intorests of Now Orleans of the disorder of the politics of Louis- innn is revealed in tho following doscription by the New Orleans Times of the distress among tho unemployed in that city: “ Constant apprehonsion hsa soriously unset- tled every branch of trafic. Those possessed of means clutch with uervous energy every dollar Dot absolutely rcqbniano for daily use. For three days the city has been agog with scnsational re- ports, tho origin of wbich it is impossible to trace, but whoze dreadful purport 18 on every- body's lips. Many sober men would prefer to have tho blow fall rather than live in a constant state of uncertainty.” Gov. Hartranft has issned his proclamation, a8 required by law. declaricg that there has been cancetod of the debtot tne Commonweslth of Pennsylvania, within the year ending with the 30th of November, 1874, §1,230,186.567, as fol- lo.ss: 89,000 of 5 por cent bonds, £1,221,113.90 of 6 per cent bonds, 358 of * Reliof ' notes, and $19.67 of domestic creditor cortificates. The Contral Railroad of New Jersoy annonnces its nsual quarterly dividend of 25§ per cent, pay- able on tho 20th of January. The Illinois Central Railroad Company an- pounces a half-yearly dividend of 4 por cent, pay- able Feb. 1. The Woodruff Sleoping and Partor Coach Com- pany announces a quartorly dividond of 2}4 per cent, payable Jan. 1. ‘I'he Keadiug Ruilroad Company announces its usual quarterly dividend of 23 por cent, ar 1 per sharo, payable Jan. 25. Those who recall tho conditicn of the finan- cial market a yoar ago, after the paoic, when no i man would lend, or could borrow, must appre- ciate the vast improvement that now prevails. Money was never so abundant as now, nor ob- tainablo on good socurity on such easy terms. It is abundant in lines of business that hitherto have always bad neod of allit could command, and wo are informed by Mr. Carry, loan agent, that surplus cash heretoforo used in commercial business oxclusively is now eceking time in- vestments in first-class real estato.

Wright, who is & member of the Stock-Exchange, but apparently very little known. This morning he appeared 28 a buyer of Toledo & Wabash stock. and took ail that was offered, about 18,000 shares. The general list advanced under these purchases untll Wright was called apon to put up o margin, when be expressed Ius inability, and informed the Board that he would bo unable to meet,bis engagoments. Wabash stock, which bad been selling at 26@263¢, immedintely de- clined to 21}¢, considerablo amounts having baon sold out for Wright's account. For the time a panic ruled, and prices would have fallen more than they did except for purchases of the “bears.”” Other stocks wers also sold out in tho samo way. Abont the same timo Pacific Meil went down to 36} on the announcement of the loss of the steamer Jupan, and accident to the Colon. These disasters were followed by a general pressure to sell, under which the rest of the list declined 3 to 3{ per cent. After this Wabaeh railied to 243{ and Pa- citic Mail to 37, and the balance of the list was firmer again, The market closed heavy and un- gettlod at a decline of 3¢ to 83{ per cent from the highest point of the day. ~ Wabash closed at 297, Largo amounts of long stock wero thrown overboard. Wright's failure is calculated to unsettle confi- dence. The Post says if he failed on his own ac- count it shows a degree of desperation which is alarming, while if he failed on account of some large speculator, who withholds his name, it im- plics raucality on the patt of influential dealers. The transactions iocluded 85,000 shares of Toledo & Wabash, 62,000 Northwestern common, 59,000 Pacific Mail, 24,000 Western Union, 23,600 Lzke Shore, 15,000 Union Pacific, 12,400 Ohio, 12,200 Erie, and 12,000 St. Poul.

The exports from New York during the past week include 30,500 brls flonr, 427,725 bu wheat, and 59,000 bu corn, which is an increase in flour and a decroase in wheat and corn. Tho choico of the Board of Trade for Presi- dent, at tho coming election, will probably Lie botween N. K. Fairbauk and A. M. Wright. 1t is statod that tho charges on grain on track, ‘which wero referred to in this column a few days ago, are not made for the benefit of the ware- house men, but of the railroad company, and that such charge is a necessary measure of self- protection on the part of tho latter, to keep themselves from being swamped with grain cars standing on track, which interfero with the move- miont of other cars to the clevator. The station- agents on the lines of the Northwestern and the Rock Island, and probably some other roads, bave recontly beon notified to charge 3¢ per 100 Ibs extra on grain not consigned to elevatorin this city, snd it is stated that the railroad officials have tried to collect the excess throngh the warchonse-men, but that the Iatter have entered 8 protest sagninst being called upon to rake other people's chest- nuts out of the fire. The izsue thon resoives itself into this, whether or not the railroad of- ficials have tho right to mako such a discrimi- nating charge. It will probably be found that thep bave no such right, and can only collect extra pay as demurragoe for tho extra time dur- ing which the car is occupied. It is difficult to see how they bave any more right to take oxtra toll on grain which is rot seut to the elovator than on other freight that is not consigned to an express company. The attention of the Board of Railroad and Warehouse Commissionors is respectfully called to this matter. It lies clearly within their province, and the people whom thoy have been appointed to serve expect them to “take it up.” Extra cars were sent ont over tho Northwost- ern Railroad on Friday into the wheat-growing regions, and there are indications that some other roads are sbout to follow suit. This means a0 increaso in our recoipts of wheat. Whother or not the increase will bo great enough to break the market to a much lower point is an open question, There is no doubt that the receipts would again fall off if prices should matcrially recedo, The causo of the rocent weakness in corn (new) is understood to be the fact that **Jowa is bear- mgit.” That Stote has a large crop, and so ‘many holders aro anxious to seil, both cash and option lots, that the market weakens under the strain. Operators in the interior of this State Liavo taken large quantitics for future already, but aro now flagging, sud Eastern parties aro not in & burry to invest extensively at present prices. Hence a downward movement. The stock of pork in this city is reported at 110,250 brls, and of lard at 36,750 tcs. The pack- ing duripg the past week was only 96,727 head. To date itis 858,482, against 895,865 to enmo date in 1873 ; 533,153 todo in 1872; 628,776 to do in 1871; and 357,495 to do in 1870. There are now four vesscls laden with grain in the harbor. They contain 96,630 bu wheat and 38,000 bu corn. The leading produce markets were dull to-day, without much fluctuation in prices. There was no décided disposition to buy, excapt in wheat and barlev, and tamonees was the order of the hour. A eimilar feeling is not seldom experienced on Saturdays, bat the degree of flat- Desa was unusual at this season. Tho shipping movemont was again very slow, the leading ex- ception being provisions. A moderate movement in staple and fancy dry-goods was notad at aubstantially the prices Fmvalent ot tho beginning of the week. Few arger orders are being placed, but orders for small lots of o miscellaneous character, for re- asgortment, are numerous, and make & rospect- able aggregate. 'The grocery market was with-. out special apimation in any department. A few of the leading ariicles were doing fairly, how- ever, and the volumo of business will bear comparison with that of past seasons at a liko period. Quotetions wero generally the same 29 yesterday, with a_tnfle easier feeling in sugars, coffees, and epices, and a decline of 2¢ in cloves. Teas aro active and strong, the tend- oncy being to 2dvauce. Few changes wera ap- parent in the butter and cheess markets. otk of thouo staple articles were meeting with a fair demand for prime qualities, and there was a firm fecling. Therswas o less urgent demand for fore:gn fruits, and o less buoyant tone per- vaded the markot, though, asido from raisins and carrants, values were not_appreciably lower. Lavyer and loose Muscatel raisins are 5@10c low- er, and currants Xc. Fish remaininactive and nominally unchanged. Canned goods aro re- ceiving more attention, and the goneral market soems to be working firmer. Most articles in that lino aro 15@25 per cent lower than a yvear ago, whilo in peaches, salmon, and one or t¥o other articles, tho difference is even greater. The bagging, leatbor, pig-iron, coal and wood markets were dull sod unchanged. There was 2 quict feeling in the oil market. Orders were generally for small amoants, and were filied at former quotations. Lumber was quiet and unchanged. Fow or- ders are coming in_from the country, and the local demand is light. Reports from the pineries indicato that logging operations aro progressing eatisfactorily in many scctions, sufliclent snow haa fallen in some districta to make hauling easy, and altogether the season's work appears to bo as far along as usual up to this date. Tho hardwaro markets were steady and modorately active. Hope, wool, and eeeds were quict ani unchanged. Hides continue to come forward freoly, and are salable at current prices, but the hoavy offeriuga cause a shade of weakness. Seeds wero dull and little better than nominal, excopt timothy, which was more active. Tim- othy hay was firm and fairly active, but prairio was weak undor liberal offorings and a light de- mand. Green fruits were gelling slowly in a re- tail way. - Cholce poultry was in roquest and stendy, but poor stock. Game and eggs were slow. Provisions. HOG PRODUCTS—Have been less nctive, and un- nsually tame, The markct was wek, but stesdy, tho fuctuations in prices beiug surprisingly amall. The stocks of produce on haud were larger than most operators, outaide the packing intorest, expected, and the outward movement was light, except in meats, This, with a declinoin the prico of live bogs, caused buers of product to hold back, while there was not mich desdre tosell at a_matorial declinc, ns packern say that they can scarcely afford to work st current quotations.
