SALES OF THE WEEK, TEE BIGGEST THING YET. An important negotiation for the esle of boule- vard property on the South Side has been in progrees for the last two weeks. We are not at iberty to give full particulars, as some of the details biavo not yet been arranged, but can eay that when snnounced it will prove one of the most interesting transnctions that huve besn made this year. The purchaser ie one of the wealthiest citizens of the Far iWeet, and he bas decided that his bonanza profits could not be in- vested to more sdvantage tban here. This is mot his first investment in Chicago proverty. He recontly bought 144 lots on the West Side. The fact that he continues bis pur- cbases of it shows the confidence which he feals in ita foture. The smount of money turned over in this transaction matesit the largest real estate sale of the year g0 far. The seller is one of the Cbicago operators in real estate foll of aspirations in name es well a8 in natore. A. J. Cooper bas eold the Beckwith propercv, at the corner of Michigan avenus and Monroo stredt, for 395,000. The sale was for £30.000 cash and 45 acres of Georgetown property. There was o sale of outside property in the peighborhood of the Northwestern car-zhopa this week, in which 20 acres were sold for €1,500 an acre.

DULLNESS SUPREME. The figares below are eloquent with dullnesa. The old-ostablished houses are doing little or nothing. Ths applicaiiis for loans are not scarce, but, a8 their securities sre not- first-class, they paturally gravitate toward those agencics whers they have to pay an extra percentage for - their money as s consideration for the extrarisk. Most of the loans negotiated the past week have ‘been st 10 per cent, but money can be readily had at 8 per cent, where the names and proper- ty are unexceptionable.
