A FLUCTUATING WEEE. The past week’s business started off at a Yrisk pace, some $400,000 having been nego- viated up to Wednesday, after which day there xas a gerious falling-off, as though the pluvial risitations with wnich we were then favored had covled the ardor of borrowers. As tlie week ~loscs there are indications of improvement. The demand for money is increasing, and many of our loan agents report that the demand somes from those who can offer good jecurity,—a most agreeable and unexpect- »d visitatfon. Several loans matured iately, and there wes quite o lively business done in the way of . paying up. Even tiose who have hitherto been backward in pay- ing interest are coming forward and squaring up their accounts, and putting 2 stop te fore- closure proceedings. All indications are of a favorable character. There is more life, trans- fers are more numerous than they have been for several previous weeks. and inguirers for money and property are brezking in upon the hitherto- dull monotony of the azent's life. Improve- ment is the main characteristic of the past week. Interests meet with no decided change, although there is a tendency to lower rates, the fizures continuing at 8 and 9 per cent. Loans of from $15.000 to $20,000 are negotiated at 7% per cent where property and names are first~class, and loans have been offered at rates a shade lower on peculiarly choice security.

WORKINGMEN’S CITIES. To the Editor of The Tridune. Pamis, Aug. 23.—Somcthing over 20 years ago, an enterprise was put on foot in the City of Mulhouse, Alzace, to construct habitations for the laboring classes, called cites ouvrieres, or workingmen’s cities. This movement, which 15 now widely extended in Germany and Bel- gium, though it originated in what was France, promises to make a peaceful and beneficial rev- olution in the manner of living of the laboring classes. A small number of philanthropic men organ- ized a company having for its aim to procure cheap and commodious lodgings for the poor. They commenced their operations by building 100 houses in the City of Mulhouse: in 1859 there were 428, and in 1863 there were 550 in that city. In 1866 the cholera made terrible ravages in Licge, especially among the working popula- tion inhabiting insalubrious houses in narrow and unhealthy streets. The Mavor of Liege, with the other city officers, nominated & com- mittee to inquire into the best means of rem- edying the existing evils connccted with the dwellings of the poor, and to report the result of their investizations. These gentlemen vis- ited Mulhouse in order to examine into the system of building workingmen’s cities, which had rendered that city so justly famous. The report of their examinations, brought before the municipal authorities of Liege, ¢nded m the es- tablishment of a similar company in Liege to that which had alreddy been formed in Mul- house,. His Majesty Leopold 1. became a sharcholder, and the newly-formed company’s capital was augmented by numerous public charitable institutions taking shares as well as private individuals. There are now several workingmen’s citles situated in different parts of Licge, and the work of building is constantly on the increase. The Company’s first care was the choice of land,—cheapness Was, of course, an essential point; but in Liege, as in other cities, tracts of land are found which, from their proximity to a reilroad, manufactory, or other causes, are not generally serviceable for more ambitious build- ings, and fulfill that condition. Two other points must be observed in order to let or sell these houses successfully: one, that they are near the lace of work; the other, that they are not too r removed from the mounuments and life of the city, from the centre, in fact. This Com- pany now possesses seven tracts of land in the City of Liege, in different parts of .the city, upon which in all 500 honses may be built. ~The houses are built in rows, 15 or 20 in a row, with a garden in front, and a small court~ yard behind: alow wall separates this court- Fard trom the ones adjoining: and, as thehouses are back to back, one wall down the centre seems to separate the yards on either side. These small paved yards offer many advan- tages. There the women cau do their washing without being overlooked by their nc‘ifiilbnrs, or any other work that brings disorder and discomfort into a small estab- lishment. They are often roofed over and serve 88 & carpenter’s shop, or as a work- shop for any other trade that can be carricd on, or partly 60, at_home. Having the garden in front has been found to be amuch better system than in the rear, for they are keptin better or- der, and also a pretty wrarden, With a nice green s plat and gay flowers, give 2 more chcerful aspect to 2 hotse. A healthy location, with fa- cllities for water and good drainage, are indis- pensable conditionsZfor the gecuuinry success of an enterprise like the one which we have now under consideration, or in order to procure a Deneficial result. The bouses are buflt of red brick, withe stone facings, simple but_ substantial, and with the ornamentations varied as much as possible without incurring too great expense, not to give the buildings the air of being barracks or alms- houses. The foundation-wills are two feet thick, the inner walls about a quarter of a yard. The houses are mostly two stories high, with a mansard-roof, though "~ there are somclet ata cheaper rate, consisting of one s:o]?' and 2 man- sard, others three stories high. Each houseis seven metres and a half deep, by five and 37 cen- timetres wide. A metre is alittle over a yard. The interior arrangements consist of a front and back room on_ the ground floor, with two rooms corresponding in the first story, and two rooms in the attic lighted by windows in the mansard. Each house possesscs acellar divided into two partitions, each having a door that can be lock: This dual arrangement is for the creater convenience of the occupant in sub- etting; the person who rents a room can have half the attic and half the cellar scparate from the occupants. Before taking into cousideration the rents of the houses, or their price if bought, we must re- member that the wages of the laboring classes are about half in Belgium what they are with us in the United States. The prices of the two- storied houses, with the land, is 7,500 francs, or 81,500 in cold. The price of the one-storied houses is 6,000 francs, or $L,000 in gold. They are not paid for all at once. The occupant ‘pays a rent of 45 franes 8 month (39 in gold) for a_two-storied house, with the privileze of sub-letting, and in 14 years he becomes the proprietor; for a one-storicd house with an_attic and cellars, 2¢ francs a month, or $4.73 in gold, makes him proprictor of house and laud in the same space of time. At iirst it was diflicult to make the laborer un- derstand the sdvantages of baving a house of | hisown. It was anew idea for him to be a i l)mpn’ctor: buz little by little, first in Mul- house, afterwards in other cities, the system found favor, and js a perfect success whercver it has been fairly tried. In Mulhouse, of the 50 houses that were built in 1563, there were 550 rold. . Of course 14 years secme a long time to wait, but oftentimez 8 lucky stroke of work, asmall legacy, or greai economy cnables the laborer to become a proprietor much sooner, aud some of the more industrious and steady workmen have become proprictors at the end of five years. A gentleman said to me: “ Every la- borer whom we make a proprietor and to whom we give an interest in the soil, of him we make also a soldier of good order.” Building these ‘homes isnotamatter that canbe *takenup upon speculation,” like the celebrated case of Bardell versus Pickwick, but must be undertaken by men anxious for the public good and setisfied with small, though sure, profits. The hLouses must be well built; for among their tenants and future possessors yon will have many mechan- ics, masons, and builders,—men who know good work from bad. It has been urged as an ob- jection against these houses thaf their rent le:cs them out of the reach of Very poor, hut even to them they prove an indirect bene- fit, for the lodgings vacated by the respectable poor become zceessible to those lower in the so- cial scale. Allowing the tenant to become 2 proprietor has many great and obvious advan- tages; they take better care of thc houses, they remain in the same house for years, and they pay their rent with far greater regularity; for each payment makes them so much nearcr pro- prietorship. The miscry of the homes of the poor in most of these old European cities, as things were formerly, vasses belief. Built up against the dark, damp wallg of some church or cloister, in streets 80 narrow that the fresh air of heaven never circulates through them, with tortuous, break-neck staircases, and Jow, dark rooms, in such buildings thousands of human beings were ‘born, lived, and died. 1 visited the other day, accompanied by some {riends, two of thesc Cites Ouvriercs. They con- sisted of six rows of houses, about 20 in a row, back to back, the frontsdivided by wide streets, each possessing its pretty garden filled with flowers. A group of brilliant sun flowers drew our at- tention to a cheerful-looking house in the cen- tre of a row, and we asked permission to go over it. A gentleman of our party said he was surc the house must be in- havited by a railway employe, for he never knew e man employed about a railway who did not have suunflowers i his garden. To gatisfy ourselves on this point we inquired, and found the tenant was a letter-carrier: however, as that occupation is not far removed from a railway porter, perhaps the rule did not alto- gether fail. ‘The mistress of the house was baking, it being Saturday, but she left her ovens to show us over her domain. of which she was very proud. There 'was the usual disrzlxh of cheap crockery on the mantel-piece of the best room, together with a crucifix 2nd a few prints on sacred subjects. Oar conductress pointed out to us the freshly, calci- mined walls, the small, though well-finished, staircases, the dry coal cellars, fur- with s latticed door with and key On the first floor she bad one room Jet, as well as an attic-room and part of the cellar, by which means she paid half herrent. Shewas as pleased with her house as a child with a new toy, though she has oceupied it for some time, and pointed out with pride all its conveniences. We praised her in- dustry, thanked her for her hospitality, and left her smiling in her doorway. One man was busy having a well dug in his_garden, probably that his wile might cany on the trade of a washer- woman. Of coursé, there is a great deal of dif- ference in the interfor arrangemcnts of these houses as regards turniture, ete., from the neatly and comfortably-furnished home of ‘the respectable mechanic to the kitchen stone table. and two or three chairs of the day-laborers, but all are built on the same plan, and each household possesses space, light, and fresh air in abundance. It would sectn that having gardens inust engzender alove for flowers, for, jn iront of one of the houses, a little child toddled up to me and, in- stead of asking for a penny, puts upa very urgent petition for a flower which I held in my land, and which was soon transferred to her T ‘The mary and ereat advantazes as to morals and health arising from a system that cnables each family to have a house of their own are so obvious that it is hardly necessary to dilate upon them. 2 PARK BOXDS. To the E of The Tribune. CHICAGO, Sept. 15.—In a recent conversation in this city, an Eastern financial agent who las placed » large amount of Western securities among New England capitalists, stated that he greatly regretted having advised his patrons to purchase Lincom Park bonds, from the fact that Feports Liad reached them of the opposition of roperty-owners to, the assessment, and even of injunctions being asked to restrainitscollection, In reply to an inquiry as to whether default had ozeurred in the poyment of the interest, he stated that he lx:\d) not been so advised, but added that no confidence could attach to securi- ties of this character so long as the people who were to be mainly benefited by the proceeds of their sale had so little regard for the improvements which were “intended to De made as to contest the assessments upon which the success of the enterprise de- ended. Mr. B. F. Culver, one of the Lincoln ;gk Commissioners, on ()clng questioned on tie subject, while he did not deny that opposi- tion had been made to the collection of this tax, stated that the interest on the bonds had been met promptly; that the funds were already pro- vided to meet the payment due in October, and that he could hardly conceive of circumnstances which would render the payment of the future installments in any degree uncertain. It is true that all of these park assessments have been a scrious burden upon owners of property, es- pecially of that which is unproductive’ and upon which the greater proportion of the tax has fallen, ' from its proximity to proposed improvements, but these enternrises were undertaken by the consent of the citizens of Chicago and vicinity. Their legality has been unquestionably established, and the money for the purchase of the land ol tained from bona- fide investors in these bonds. The security upon which they are placed is beyond all doubt, and there is no valid reason why they should not command at present rates of interest a premiumn in the market instead of having a nominat value of about 90 cents on the dollar. The fault lies not in the question of security or in any lack of confidence on_the part of oui- side capitalists in the future of Chicago,—as is shown by the great jplethora of Eastern moncy seeking investment in loans upon real estate— but rather in the revenue laws of this State. 80 long as the opportunity offers for the postponement of the payment of u tax by the almost inexpensive opposition which the law, as now esisting, permits, it certainly will be seized upon by many without regard to the consequent prejudice to the credit of the city or to the embarrassment which such oppo- sition causes. There is no_ city whose obliga- tions should command a quicker sale than ours, but there is no city which in the last year has suffercd more seriously from the distrust of capitalists in its promises to pay, and until the State Legislaturc 50 coustructs its Revenue law as 1o make the collection of taxes certain, and successful registance to tkeir collection impos- sible, so longayill confidence be withheld in the securities which arc maioly based upon them, . 0. C. IN GENERAL. A NEW ENTERPRISE FOR ENGLEWOOD. A larze mecting of property-owners was held atthe Sherman House on the afterncon of Thursday, the 14th inst., to take into considera- tion the location at South Englewood of a branch of an Eastern Horse-Shoe-Nail Manufac- tory. A representative and Director of the Company was present and gave a full explana- tion of the operation of the home works, and the intention of the Directors fo meet by a man- ufactory at Chicago the increasing demaunds of the West. A general discussion of the project was held by nearly all the gentlemen present, and bona-fide promises of not only a gift for the site of this manufactory were made, but also liberal contributions of land as additional in- ducement for the location of the works. A cominittee composed of representatives of the property-owners and of the Company was ap- pointed to attend to the details of the negotia- tion. It is the iutention to have the works in successful operation within the next 90 days. ILLINOIS REALTY. A ne, and, according the minds of some of our best lawyers, a very a)regn:\nt question will probably soon be raised in our courts as to whether foreign corporations can take valid evidences of debt secured by real estate lying within the State of Illinois. Our Supreme Court _has emphatically decided that corpora- tions, foreign to the State of [llinois canuot take title to- or buy and scll real cstate lying within its boundaries. The Supreme Court has gone so far as todeny toa trust company foreign to the State the privilege of hoiding and part- ing with the title to real cstate simply in trast (it ha_vin% no direct interest in the fce or in the rise of fall of values), inorder to sell it for the benefit of its cestui qui trust. Hence, setting aside for the present the ques- tion us to whether the forcigu company can validly or safcly take sceuritics, directly or 1n- directly, on real estate lying in lllois, one thing would seem to follow, aud that is, that if they do foreclose they must find a bona fide purchaser at the saie, aud not by direction or in- dircction be a purchaser, as they cannot receive the title. Selling to the President of the Com- pany, or to any one else individually, while in tact the Company owns aud direets the subse- quent administration of the land, or, in other words, scling to any one who thus hoids the title for the Company, directly and avowedly, or indirectly and concealedly, will not do. The Company cannot take the title, and as that which cannot be done Jegally by dircet method cannot_be doue by an ndirect method, & bona. fide sale to an actual purchaser ot in any way Dbuying for or in bebali of the Company must be made.—Real Estate and Building Journal. THE NEW YORK REAL ESTATK MARKET. Real estate operators and brokers. having just now but little business of their own toat- tend to, are teking 2 1nost intense interest in that of their neighbors, and daily eawerly and anxiously question their mercantile friends as to how generl business is doing, understand- ing, as they do, that any improvemeat in real estiate must be foreshadowed by the general prosperity of the business community. So lar as this is concernea, all is now going well, and there i3 no possiLlc doubt but that New York is just mow doing a lively and comparatively profitable trade, one which in times like 1873 would have! served as o bamis for a geoeral advance in prices, and would have created a most lively speculative time. New York merchants have, how- ever, since that year, reccived many bitter lessons, which those who are mnow left are profiting by, and we consequently find them loth to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs by any advance in prices which the pur- chasing public will not stand. There scems to be but little of interest occurring in the real- estate market, the same listless tone still char- acterizing the transactions of the Exchange salesroom, all of which are of a purely legal character. There is no diminution fo the num- ber of foreclosure suits, the number filed for August of this vear being slightly in excess of the same month for the year 1875, the actual figures being 162 for the year 1875 and 180 for the year 1876. In July of this vear there were 213 snits filed, and but 137 in the same month of 1875. There seems to be also a elightly less proportion of suits stayed off this year than last, as mortgagees are insisting upon positive settlements, which, owing to the weakuess of the Lolders, can only be consummated by the sale of the’ property, which almost invariably falls into the hands of the plaintiff.—New York Lteal-Estate Record. BUILDING. Mr. Thomas Lyman has purchased the south- west corner of Elizabeth and Randolph strects and the northeast corner of Washington and Ada streets. On this property he will ercct 23 three-story marble-front houses. These, with the nine Liouses building on the northeast cor- ner of Adaaud Washingion streets, and the 76 houses covering the entire block between Ada, Elizabeth, Washington, and Madison streets, will make a total of 103 new marble-front, first- class residences built upon the purchases made of Mr. Timothy Wright this summer.
