The Sales of the Week Few and Not Important. But They Show Good Bargains in Chicago Real Estate. THE LOAN MARKET. BCSINESS MODERATE. _he businees of the past week has notcome up to the figures of the previous weeks of the mouth, but, as compsred with last year, there ought to be no canse of complaint. An exce tioual state of affairs existed in Augnst, 187 ‘which brought out a large demand for money consequent upop the grest fire of July, and yet the figures of actual loans oo Chicago real es- tate for the week ending Acg. 25, 1875, fall but little below those of the corresponding period 1ast year. Thbe Chicago, Miilington & Western Ralway Company filed for record a8 mortgage in trust to tbe Farmers’ Losn & Trust Company, of New York, covering ail its railroad property, to secure 1,500 bonds, each for S1,000, payable in United States gold coin July 1, 1905, with i terest at 7 per cout, pasable semi-anpuaily. There is an impression sbroad that the dullness in real estate must bave reduced the Isbor of the Rocorder's office very materially, but facta do Dot substantiate this impression. | _ft dated Aug. 27............ e The fustruments roforred Lo in our Woekly tabu- [ Fomet st 22 18 of West Harrleon ef, w &0 lar statemenie number 473 for the week juut | Sizngsh o8y fs of Cusslport av, o3, 2020y L, past, 477 for the corresponding week in 1874, m’;'mn o 413w of Gontrasi, o1, 21105 15, g and 462 for a similar period in 1873.

YEEY FEW SALES MADE LAST WEEE. With the approach of fall s demaod for rosi- dece property shows itself. and gives an appear- anoe of greater activity to the offices of the real- estate dealers. The past wesk has little to offer in the way of sales that possess any interest to the public. The real-estate agents report that negotiations in progress are increasing in pum- ber, and that inquiriss are more frequeut.” The sales given below indicate the favorable terms on wlich property can now be bought in this city. Whether prices havo yet reached their lowest is & mooted yoiut between the bulls and bears, ooe reaily that the future alone can sett'e. The epergy aud confidence with which heavy capitalists are investing on every side in build- ing stores and dwellings indicate that in their opinion there is to be a remunerative demand for the use of such improvements. It is the revenue yiclded by improved re.l estate that is in the long run the criterion of its value, and gaoged by this etandard the immedinte futme of Chicago resl estate is an en- coursging one.

Thers was a greater stir in banking elircles than on the day befors, but nothing that indicated any change intho general festures of the losn-market, Oolico- tions have ehown little if any fmprovement in the last two weuks, The marketing of the cropa has not gone far enough to supply the country with funds ezough $0 meet all its liabilities, The'dilatoriness of country ‘merchants excites a corrosponding demand from mer- chsuts in the city.

The theory haa been put out that the suxpension of the Bank of California was eimply the last moveina Qesperate gameof frauds, and not cansed by any imme- diate pressure upon it. There is much to counte— nance this view, but the financial artisles of the San Franclaco papers that are now arriving record the ap- pearance in the money market of the premonitory rigns that usually precede a collapen. The A4a of the 2:d saye: The stock market continues woak at lower prioes under the growing pressure of tho money market. The amount of maney at the command of operators is vezy limilod, and calis wers made yesterday on purtes accustomed 'to broad Limits, but who are now come pelled torun closs in the wind, The amount of busi- noss done to-day was very emall. Thero seemed to by uo demre to presa sales, and there was no ability 10 buy, The gradual contraction of money facilitioa is producing an effect, and there are indications of let~ g go to take hold better. The Chronicle of the sanc date, in ita finsnefal col- umn, speaks more definitely of the growing stan- geucy: So far 2a the money market ia comcerned, there is realiy no chunge to chronicle, The banks have con tinued unaccommodating to brogers, and brokers huve been daily drawing the lines tighter on margina, Every one is keeping a sharp lookout to windward, ‘Tio assertions of brokers tust the banks have pienly of monoy, and could 1oan 1t more freely if desired, is denied by Lhe bankers themseives, who ssy that thers is just money enougls in toe city for legitimat busi- nese, and nonie for speculstion. A prominent bauker, in making tnis assertiou a few days ago, added that he ** did not kuow whers the operators got the money with which they were making purchases. Tney must either be drawing it from the savings banks or from private hoards lud away in old stockinga.” Itcon- tinucs to be Lelieved that the prospective necesmties of Few = 0°Bilan's new_bauk are causing the retire- ment of a large amouat of ready money. It is hard to underatand how an institution that intends to tart with o Inrge an amount of eonvartible capital for the ammediate use of the borrowers can otherwise carry out its plans. No matter how large an zmount of bilia recavablo the new bank might buve in hand, it would be scarcely sufficient for the bro.d working parposes which its projectors have in contemplation. The referencs to Fluod & O'Bricn’s new bank fouch- s without doubt what will be found to be the occa- sion, though not the czuse, of Ralston’s fall, TACIFIC COAST SBPECULATIONS. Within the two weeks ending Aug. 10, twelve naw mining companies were organized, eight of which were iocated in Nevads, and foue in California. Ten of the twelve have capitals of $10,000,000 each, And two $,- 000,000 each. Tho sggregate is $112,000,000, which i pretty well for 3 fartnight's operstions, but how much 15 the stock worth now?

Provislons and wheat were firmer, though the gold premium was lower, and other markets exhibited lcss varistion than usual, except corn, which was ag n weak. The ship- ping movement was light, aud lake freights dull, the business being chielly speculative, and having referen o to the fact that August will fade into Beptomber bo- tween Tuesday and Wednesday next, - Dry goods wers in fair Qemand, and nothing more, Tho hot weather of the past few diys, while 1t bright ens the general business outlook, operates to deluy the opening of the fail trade, and at tha moment thare s comparatively s light movement sside from sup- plying immediate wants. The only important prico changes noted were s reduction of s X in Fruit of the Loom aud Hil's 44 bleached shirtings. The grocery market was destifute of new features, For tho sesson thers was a fairly satisfactory movement, and the general markut ro- taina its healthy tone. Coffecs are etrong, and sirups, teas, rice, s0aps, and apices also display a grol degres of firmness. Bugars may still be quoted weak and un- seltled. The position of the dried fruit market ro- mains much the same as previously noted. Apples, peachies, snd blackborrios have now been advanced to & point where buyers will not invest beyond meeting current requirements, and the stabliity of present ex- treme prices may be questioned. Other dried frults, Doth forelgn and domestic, rule quiet and steady.

Iy ora few weeks late just now, but whother we ars to bave a dry or wet fall. In regard to the corn that shonld come to Chicago and does mot, it {a time that ths people of Chicago should fully anderstand the reason. It is simply thia: Grain 1 hendled at Joliet, Peoris, and twenty other jlaces in ts State whers ral freights to the East sre about the same s from hers, for less than one-lalf the amount charged bere, ' All this changs of inspection i mera dust thrown in the eyes of the people, delaying the time when the real facts wiil be met. The elevator rate in Peoris 1s o a bushel for 30 days. In Chicago it is 2c for 20 days. The charge in Chlcago for switching a car to elevator and loading 1t 18 1c x bushel. In Peorda it is nothing. No cifangs 1 the inspection of grain can affect suzh facts as theso, ComN MERCHANT, The sbove communication hita the natl on the head, and drives {¢ home, (n 1ta statement of the ressons why corn goes Lo other points in preference to Chicago, A difference of Ic per bushel 1n coarges is & great deal; and often sufiictent to turn the scale. It now costs a8 much ostore bushel of corn hers for 20 days as 10 carry it trom tis city to Buffalo, The Iatter ser- vico s certainly worh & grester recompenss than the frst, A CALL EOARD. 1t {5 understood there is a project on foot in this city at the present time looking to the organization of & *Btock and Call Exchange,” the obfect being to afford Dropor an ' reasonable facilities for all classes of mer- chants, both in end out of the city, o transact busi- ness of any kind or character quickly snd ot limited expense. It is well known that Ciicago is fast assnm- ing the firat place in the roli of commercial centres. 1n no city in the Union is there 50 much speculstion in grain and provisions as here, and besides this is the fact that within the lust ive years a radical change bes takan pisce in the character of our trada, Nowadays buyers do not look to New York to furnish them their goods, and Chicago does not find it necessary to send lier grain and provisions to that city to find bugers. In point of fact, the buyers look mnd come to Chicago, snd through bills of lsding are given to any polnt in the Old or New World. Tners isnolackof capital here eitner, Those who have watched the drift of commerce cannot but hive dis- covered that thare s natural tendency of all classes of trade to drift Chicagoward, Two'or thres efforts huve beén made witnin the lust decude to establish a Stock Board in this city, Lut have been unsuccessful mainly because the movement sas premaiare, Chioago not belng ready to support an institution of this kind. Soveral prominent gentlemen of this clty now believe the time has come fur an etfort in this direction, aud are lalking of organizing & Board somewbat upon thus basis: It is proposed to Lavea “call” of the leading cereals—whaat, corn, xnd osts—and of mess pork and 1ard; alsa to *call ” some local bank, insurance, and Tailway stocks, and fn fact any article—sugar, coffee, tes, tobacco, efc., etc.—as circumstances warrunt. These “calla” to be two or threo tumes & dsy, or oftencr if needed. By this means it s thought that conaidersble business of & specu- Intive character done by Chicago mirchants in other citles can be done here, and of course Chicago mor- chants will respthe beneiits accrumng. The tins is certainly fast approaching when more or less railrond compaudes will move their transfer books to Chivsgo, —sli thoy want is an opportunity, and this the Cui- ¢ago merthants can farnish by 8 little effort, It cer- tainly looks feasible, and it must be admitted that nything that {ncreases the volume of our busineas in- creasea thie Yolume of our prosperity.
