Potter Palmer Sells Some More State Street Lots Cheap, A Very Dull Showing in the Loan Market. Bents Y2 Chicago and New York---An Indianapolis Speculation. SALES OF THE WEEK. DULL TIES. ‘There are several traneactions of interest this week among those recorded below, but beyond these the condition of the real-estate market re- mains what it bas been. The sales reported lately have exhibited tho disposition of heavy cspitalists with surplus means to invest part of it in real estate. The opportunity to get gooa bargains ib this class of property was never bet- ter, a has-been sufficiently shown by the rec#at trensactions on State street that have attracted so much attention. Op- erations of thig sort will occur frequently. ‘Whether they will come s0 thick and fast as to esuge @ genuine and genors] revival of real es- tate depends largely upon the success of trade this year. A leading banker, who has just returned from Rew York, reports that the capitalisis of this city regard investments in real estate with more favor than apy others. Their experience with ‘ponds and corporate investments has been ‘unfortunate, and they turn to laid fora roturn that will be eure, if sometimes small. Thesame Gisposition prevails in the West, and has a sen- sible foundation in the fact that money placed in and cannot be stolen or Mobilierized by Direct- ors and Trustees, as frequently happens to in- ‘vestments in railroads and othor corporations.

Averell sold on account of Potter Paimer, to Henry Corwith, the store No. 180 State etreet, 25 feet front by 120 feet deep ; also, the northwest corner of State and Quincy streets, 333¥ feet frouting on State by 145 feet on Quincy, for 882,000 cash.

He kn under contract to turn ont work within saxty days. jf ees ce ‘THE LOAN-MARKET. . FALLING OFF IN BUSINESS. ‘The month closes with a dull market The falling off in business as compared with Jast yoar ° ig very marked. A study of the tabular state- ment below is, however, suggestive of consolation for those who are trying to get out of debi, if not for those who are trying to drag people into @ebt. The proportion of releases to incumbran- ces in February, 1874, was 67.86 per cent. The Proportion for the present month is 873¢ per cent. The average of esch instrament filed for record in February, 1874, was 94,500; for the esme month this year itis $2,440. ‘There is an impression abroad that an act now pending in the Legislature, with regard to tho rate of interest that may be lawfully charged by foreign corporations, will, if enacted, give a great impetus to the Joaning-business. ‘It is usid that many of tha largest agencics have held aloof from the market on sccount of the pendency of ‘this act, and that they are now prepared to do Dusiness on liberal torms, believing that the assage of the act is assured. This can scarcely accepted as fully accounting for the daliness bat has characterized the market since the com- Sboncement of the year. At any rate, borrow- ‘zrs atill continue to pay 10 per cant with unim- ‘paired cheerfulness. DOMPARATIVE STATEMENT YOR THE FOURTH WZEK OF FEDEUART. . wi a Consider Jo, | “ation. 15's 82; “1674.

WOODRUFF COMES TO GRIEF. Tho great and bossted real-estate speculation of Indianapolis, -“Woodraff piace,” has turned out like s good many other such Indianapolitan schemes, ssadfailure.

Tho ‘secured indebtedness ia covered by me es upon property, —_prin- arate ee oodrat piace, valued - in the lst at $596,500. Ono lot in Woodrnff place, on which ‘there are mortgages to the amount of $28,500, ia valued at $25,000. This and two descriptions of iand in Wayne County form the total realty of the petitioner. The ‘Wayne County Iands are valued at £5,000, and are incambered by mortgages beld by Harmon Wooaruf, of Auburn, X. ¥., to the amount of $3,000, ‘The other mortgago indebteduess is upon Woodrnff-place property. The poreonal property of the petitioner is estimated at $4,090,- . To this Mr. Woodruff adds three policies of insurance toon his life, amounting to $43,000. ‘These policies were taken ont in favor of his wife, Emma J. Woodruff, who consents to their tranufer for the benefit of the creditors of her husbend, who claims nothing from exemption, except his and her clothing.” - agen TRANSFERS.

At many of the New York restaurants a very heavy ‘French style” is put om; the waiters are mostiy Frenchmen, and the bili of fare is often pnintedin French. A correspondent writes that, venturing ont early one morning in New York, he dropped into the first restauraut he came to, which happened to be one of the kind spoken of above. Carelesely giving an arder, tho waiter, bring- ing his shoulders up under hia ears, responded : “Jo n’ parle pas anglais, M’sicur”; and the hungry msn had to point out his wanta on the bill of fare, with which after considerable delay he was gerved. Just hero entered another customer, s tall, powerfal fellow, evidently fresh from the West: ern prairies, who, settling himself into a chair, ordered, “ Beefsteak, fried potatoes, hot bread, © ‘n cup 0’ coffe ‘To bim the grinning Frenchman repeated tho same formuls. u «Je n’ parle pas anglais, M’sicu: The Western man looked at him for amo- ment, and then,, rising from his seat like the opening of a big jsckknife with a etiff spring, ho slowly ejaculated, as he clenched » wicke looking fist : “ Boot steak—fried potstoes—hot bresd—cup of coffee, quick.” [ : ‘The effect on the waiter was megical, There ever wes & man served more promptly with just whet he ordered for breakfast than the hungry Westerner. emt He evidently knew tho way of putting hi English so that there was no mistaking it. Hegira of Blacks from Tennessee to Kansns and Mississippi. ¥” prom the Nasheille (Tenn.) Banner, Feb. 2. A liogira of negroes has set in for Kansas and ‘Mississippi. To some extent the drouzht of last seagon is suggested as the causo of this sudden exodus from a locality where wheat promises a bountiful harvest this spring. Ifthe drought is the real cause of their departure, it would sp- Pear that they are emgrating to a country which suffered far groater plagues last year. About 500 blacks, coming from Giles, Maury, and Rutherford Counties, passed through here, vis the Northwestern Rosd, Friday, for Kansas. It is eaid that hundreds more will follow them, but ‘will divide, some going to Mississippi and others to Kansas. ‘Two colored ministers from Rutherford County awerein the city yesterday. They stated that no Toss than 2,000 negroes in that county were con- tewplating a departure for the West and South. © most harmfal result to follow so grest au exodus ef farm laborers is in tho possibility of not getting all the wheat harre: ‘Tho only means of supplying this loss of bor il be the encouragement of the" tion of whito laborers and farmers fram other States. To do this, every inducement sbould be held out to promote so influx of whites from the North- | ern States and Zurope. MONEY AND COMMERCE.
