THE .CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1875.—SIXTEEN "PAGES. REAL ESTATE. Business Dull, but Holders Hopeful. Borrowers Paying Both Principal and Interest on Their Loans. Transfers of Property---List of Building Permits, Homes for Workingmen. That real estates is dull and szles comparative~ Iy few, even the mosj enthusisstio speculator wonld acarcely dsre to deny. Many of the trans- actions that appear in the lists of sales publishod from day to day are trades bstween parties who want to lessen their liabilities and those who are willing to assume a reasonable amount of fncam- brance. These, however, ususlly innure to the benefit-of all parties, and pave the way for great~ €3 activity in the fotare. Among the strong holders of property gener- aliy we hear of no disposition to gell at present prices. Occasionally such parties may have no use for a residence, or for other good reagon may be willing to sell aiabargain. But as & rule, such cases are few. Of the genecral mar- ket, howover, it may truly bo said that there bas not been for the Iast dozen years so favorable a time to boy property in Chicago. Boores, even - bundreds of owners, who want to be fully ro- lieved from the effects of the &ire and of their buldiog operations that emccooded it, will eell it prices that will be sure to reslize bandsomo profits. An sdvance in real estate. consequent upon our eplendid crops, the abuudance of money in all the busivess centres, and the gen- £ral activity in business circles, 18 8sure to be ~eatized in the not distant fature. In this view e are sustained by the Real Estate Journal, of Det. 2. It gays: ~¥rom the Past and South, and from districts nesrer home are reported more cheering Ncwe, Irom man- Qfacturing nhd mining circlcs, and a largs number of beavy capitalists have recommenced cperstions in ihese lines of industry. The improved condition of Affaira at the money-cantres is begiuning to bo realized bero. Agrest deal of money has been demmy d by the Uirements of grain OPertiOrs, &L h of mmiuin ‘Western Lanks has boen employed, aud requisitions msde an reserves at the Exst far money to mect the demand, The Journai predicied ihat the fpnsense crops of the year would let loose milliors of mone which bas lain” unemployed for two years, and ‘once afloat, this would continue in circulation, be- 28 long es 15 can be used at 3ll it will not pay to upsngain, The firat part of the is already ed, snd there is o reasen to donbt that tho Test t will be, | ¢ THE LOAS MAREET. Loan agents complain that business is dull, and that tho attempt to do anything is like pull- ing s cat by the tail,—hard work and but little sdvantage. The past week's record shows that we aramaking & very respectable progress in releasing ourselves from the thralidom of bor- rowed capital, and we commend to our readers a comparison of the releases and liabilities as shown in the etatement below. 1t is an ill wind that blows 20 one any good, and while for the past week the proportion of relenses o incum- brances is 89 per cent. it was only 6% per ceot for the correepanding week last year. The period seems to bo spproaching when an egulibrium will be resched. and then it will not be s long interval before the scales will lean in $he other direction. A comparison of the two ‘Jears 1875 and 1974 resalts satisfactorily, being sn advance of 11 per cent in the proportion of re- Jeases to incumbrances for the present year aver 1874. For the past thres months foreclosure gales have shown 8 marked falling off—conclusive proof that tho cisima of our loan agents that payuents both of principal and interest are being promptly met, are not withont eubstantial foundation.

To the Liitor of The Chicago Tribune : Cricaco. Oct. 2.—A lotter under the above heading appeared in your isene a few Sundays since, which I, presumably with & large number of other workingmen, perased with interest,but ag 1 have not seen or heard any respouse to the let~ ter, and therefore judging that its sabject-matter Das not received that notice and attention it so woll merits, permit me to makoa few remarks upon the subject in the hope that they mey gtimulate some little inquiry into the subject of mutual co-operation generally, but especially as spplied to the acquimtion of ‘‘homes for workingmen.” o . cpmser oo Sy, The principle of Co-operative Land and Build- ing Societies is neither novelnor untried. Theiwr euccess from their first formation up to the present hss been go strikingly manifested, and the advantages and benefits derved there- from by their members, individually and collect- ively, bas been so grest, and marked with such satisfectory results, a8 to justify their adoption and rapid extension in every intelligent commu- nity cn both eides of tho Aflantic. In Eagland, the first promoters of these societies were re- garded as visionariss, and met with but Bcant support in their earliest efforts 1u their formation; but, being ccnscious of the wisdom and eounduess of their views, they persevered, and epeedily convinced the most skeptical that a new era of prosperity and happiness for workingmen was inangurated for those who were wise and intelligent enough to embrace the opportunities such societies af~ forded to tmprove their eocisl poeition, and place them upon a higher plane of citizenship than they bad herctofore (ccumed.. A yery great number of these societies are now in active op- aration in every part of Great Britain, and 0 much appreciafed that there is not singlo city or town, or scarcely a village, but what bas its mutusl co-operative society, and through their agenc thousands, nay. tens of thousands, of English workingmen of the present day are their ** own landlords " and ab- solute owners of their ** hearths and homes ” who, but for the enconragemeént and asmstance of these societies, would never have been pos- sessors of & single brick. And in most of the Eastarn cities of our land; a large number of theso saocicties are jn successful operation, npt only enabling their members to possess their own houses, but cncommnf generally habits of industry, fragality. and thrift. Whatis good for the workingmen of Phila- delphia, Boston, and other Eastern cities is cer- tainly good for us bere in Chicago, and it ap- pears Bomewhat strange and incomprehensible that they are not now in operation in this city. One of the chief causes, possibly, that such so- cieties do not exist here1s a want of knowledge or appreciation of the immense bonefita and a:i- vantages of mutua] co-operation. I earnestly appeal to my fellow-workmen to think upon and study out for themselves the great princi- ples ibat are em in ‘“mutu- al co-operstion.” The beneficial nature of ‘such societies, when bassd upon correct principles, honestly and judicionely ad- ministered. and applied to legitimate results, 18 1o longer problematical or doubtfal. They have passed entirely out of the region of speculation, and have wherever established proved emunent- 1y uscful to their members, and prolific of rcsults of an extraordinary character ; indeed, the cer- tain success and positive benefits of mutnal co- operation societies, whether applied to the ac- quisition of property, to purposes of trade or manafscture, or to domestic economy, are limit- od only to the extent to which their pnnciples aro applied. Spacs forbids me attempting any minute do- tails as to the basia of management necessary for the succeseful operstion of a society haviog for 1ts object the purchase of surburban proper- ty and ere-tion of houses therson, such as Mr. Courtney suggests in lus letter (and who, I pre- suwe, is etill open to recerve communications upon the subject, at his residence, 856 Centre avenue), a difference of opinion may possibly exist a8 to the exact miodus operand:, rates of subscription, ete., which mpst be left for settle- ment to the matual wisdom and diecretion of the members forming such an sssociation. That an 18 oertsinly much needed. the present crowded stata of tha city, the fmpos- Eibility of obtnining residences convepient 10 businees, and the present very uneatisfactory modes of transit suficiently prove. The idea of purchasing o tracv of gubnrban ‘property (contiguous to some railway that wonld ive fair and liberal rates of transit) at, say, rom 200 to $300 per acre, and dividing it up into suitable lots for its individual members, and erecting therson suitable residonces at the bare cnst of material and labor, to ba paid for by pe- riodical and regular paymente, is certainly ons which the workingmen of this city cannat afford to ignore or reject. Such a euburban village need not present the incongraous snd unpleasing appesrance to the eye tbat many of our eaburbs now do, but, being formed on & combined plan, by mutaal consent, it might be 80 planned and laid ont, and a style of architec- ture, of pleasing varisty, adopted and agreed upon for the residences, as would combine a high degree of heauty acd attractiveness that would not only enhance considerably the finau-~ cial valoe, but materlally fend to elevats the wethetios and moral tone of ita residenis; and this, owing to the combined plan and mutual as- gistance adopted, may be effected without sny apprecisble additional cost. To the industrious and intelligent workmen &nd othors of this city, some such plan of muinal co-operation and aseistance for the consumma- tion of 8o desirable a purpose must at once com- mend iteelf, and if only some fifty or sixty per- sons will 80 combine, and organize themselves into such a society, and base it upon correct principies, the suceess of the scheme is at once assured, and such an association will have the ‘honor of becoming the pioneer of & number of similar societies that wiil conduce in no emall measure to the permanent prosperity of our city and the Individual happiness of great nnmbera of her citizens.

There hss tnhdoubtedly been s much larger distribution of merchandise from this point during the week, especially in the lino of dry goods under concesgions on cotton snd woolen fabrics. In commerclal gircles the export demand for four and grain has also fmproved, and the outlook ia mara fa- vorable.

The leading produce markets wero rather irregular on Saturday, and yet stesdier thun the two proceding days, there being less pressure to settle up trades for Beptember and October, The busineds for this month that is not yet arranged for will probably be squared off in lelsurely manner, o large shars of it being do- ferred into the lsst half. The trading ran more largely into November in grain, and tho year in pro- visions, with not much doing for shipment. A little chartering was dons by parties who have reccived grin an contract, and do not care to place it on the market bere. Thers was a good demand for freight-room to proceed to Mil- ‘waukes, and carriers were firm in thetr views, holding that an advance in rates must be obtairod now if at all thin season. The attitude of shippera was not favors- bletoa riso in quotations, and it appears probable that there will be little improvement until the special insurance rates come into effect in November, The dry-goods markei Yoroa quieter look than dur- ing the earlier days of the week, though for a Satur- dsy the volume of ssles was more than ordinarily lib- eral, There were no important fuctuations in valnes, stendiness being a characteristic of the arket. Groceries were moving on a matisfactory scale at prices not materially different from those current at the beginning of the week. Fair activity wns appar- ent, both in the staple and elde-goods departments, and tho feeling Was uniformly firm, In domestic dried fruits there was but a limited movement, snd values were again somewhat unsettled. Apples and peaches especially wero dull and weak. There was a well aus- tained demsnd for imported varieties, and prices show a hardening tendency. Fish were unchanged in value, All salt-water descriptions are held with pro- nounced firmnmess, The butter and cheese markets presented substantially the same characteristics as for & number of days previons. Nome of the festures of the bagging, leather, coal, and wood markets showed any marked change. Oils were in good local and country demand at fully former quotations, the general market presenting a firm tons. The cattlo trade was quite a3 dull 88 on any pre- vious day of the week, and prices Wers again unset- tiad snd irregularly lower, Sales were chisfly to feed- ers and local butchers st §2.50@3.75.

Highwines were dull at $1.15 per gallon. Lumber oontinges active, and the gengral market is firm. Tho country ia buying freely at the yards, and » good many cargoes have been sold to interior mer chanta during the past week.

The upper grades are not 8o sctive Iron and steel continue tn moderate demand at nnchanged rates. There were no new features in the markets for wool, hides,broom- corn, seeds, or bops, The demand for any of the ar- ticles enurmersted was moderate, and prices for the three last were easy. Green fruits wers rather alow, belng n large supply. Although retailers were buy- ing, the atock of the most pershable {ruits did not ap- pear to diminish very fast; and scllars generally wero willing to concede on prices, being anzious to closs out, 88 it was the Jast night of the week, Poultry was slow and easy under liberal offerings.

HOG FRODUOTS—Wers acitve snd hrreguiarly srangar, the trading taking & more decided toward product of next Teceipts of hogs were fair, with a slightly easter faul- ing in the market, but the tons of the market for prod- nct was not dependent on the current supply of the rawmateriasl, It is now underatood that stocks sra small, the recent suspension of summer packing, in the hope of letting down prices, on hogs, having re- sulted in 2 rapid cleaning out of stocks, which are now worked down quite low. Then it seems to be ac- cepted as a fact that the vext packing season will open and cloge s month later than usual, 48 farmers will natunally desire to use an immense corn crop for fattening, and tbe number of hogs is small. the officfal returns of aix Western States giving falling off of something like 1,200,000 head. Thd tendency of this is to caure s continuous strengtbening in the nearer delivertzs, under the pros- pect of a short supply in the eariy minter, while the Iate options are firm, taough ot relatively a0 strong. There ia not much disposition to take stock in the cry of & *sliort hog crop,” because the same cry has been rajsed in former years,and wssnot justified by the event. Buta short present stock of product, with o good demand for what is lefc, are well-recognized facta ; and a Iste commencement of the packing-3esson is generally regardad a3 a cersainty.

Liverpool was razly reported firmer, and New York was about Ic Ligher, but our receipts were expectad to incroese, which neutralized egainst wheat that is ready to be Tont rorward, ‘and thla reprossed demund. Added to thls, was the fact referred to in_our report of Fridsy’s market, that the local shorts have pretty well flied up, and some of them gone long, thus reducing the in- Qquiry and opening 2 door for weakness on the first downward turn, as that class alwsys rushes to sell when the market beging to ebade off. Towards the Close Liverpool was reported 3@4d higher, with an active demand, and that produced a temporary firm- ness here, but the market soon_weakened again under the weight of offerings.
