_— THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, OCTOBER .9,- 188I—T' WENTY-FOUR PAGES. : aid for visiting this estaplishment, which, ofall Chicago institutions, is most pecullarly their own. : AMERICAN BARGAIN HOUSE Butler Brothers, . ‘11 and 13 Wabash ‘avenue, are among the “go-ahead” kind for which Chicago -is noted. Starting in Boston but a few years ago in the notion trade,-and after- “wards Inckily originating the 5 and 10 cent . counter business, they soon became too large for littia New England, so that now. they have houses in New York and Chicago as well. They send outno drummers, but fur- nish circulars with pricet’sts which tell their story. They have bargains in all kinds of goods for all lines of trade. They are doing an enormous business, and are des- tined to become one of the first houses in the country. ¥UENITURE, SHOWCASES, ; BTC. : Geohegan & Revell. Perhaps no firm of the city has had a more rapid or more substantial growth than that whose name furnishes a heading for this paragraph. In the short space of less than four years Messrs. Geohegan & Revell have indeed built up a business in the manufact- ure and sale of household goods, showcases, office fixtures, etc., second to no business of its character in the United States. ‘They oc- cupy the stores 191, 193, 195, and 197 Randolph street, corner Fifth avenue, and about the Ast of May will occupy and reconstruct the entire Lloyd ‘Block, five stories and base- sents, with eighty feet frontage on Ran- dolph street and 200 feet on Fifth avenue, .comprising a frontage of fifteen large stores. They are also proprietors of the Chicago Furniture Company, whose stores are from 47 to 55 Fifth avenue, and occupy- ing four stories. They employ sixty men, and have an extensive trade all over the West, shipping goods to Montana and other points in that region. Besides their large ‘business in household goods, they deal in oftice, store, and saloon ixtures, carpets, and upholstered goods. ‘They are also extensive manufacturers of showcases and the most standard articles of household and office furniture. Their ob- Jecthas ever been to establish an emporium where Chicagoans and non-residents can be sure of finding any article in tie above lines “which they may desire, They are the orig- Faators of the line of business which they do, and their success has led to many imitations. But their trade-mark, so familiar to the readers of the Chicago papers, “Go-Again and Rey-el,” has advertised the house so thoroughly that its growth has tar eclipsed that of any of its rivals. Its growth, indeed, has been simply wonderful, and we do not imow of an. instance where so Jarge a busi- ness has been established in so short a time. For many years the citizens of Chicago will “Go-Again and Rev-el” at this large and popular furniture emporium. i N. Barsaloux. ‘Ten years of persistent work has brought Mr. Barsaloux to the front as a dealer in furniture, carpets, showcases,.and house- ‘hold goods. His warerooms, No. 58 Fifth avenue, contain a Jarge and varied assort- Ment of these goods. He has a_ reputation for honesty, fair dealing, and selling goods cheap, and is one of ths prosperous business men of the city. LUMBER. Goss & Phillips Manufacturing Come pany. ‘This company has been identified with the growing interests of Chicaro for more than thirty years, and has taken an active part in ouilding and rebuilding the city. They are well and favorably known throughout most xf the entire country, having for so many years been foremost in the manufacture of sash, doors, blinds, and every variety of house furnishing, inaterials, not only of pine, “hut all kinds of hard wood, embracing ma- hégany, cherry, black-wajnut, butternut, maple, ash, oak, Southern pine, etc. They are constantly adding new samples and de- Stens, which are well worthy the attention of the builder. Henry Stephens’ box-manufacturing establishmegt, Twenty- second and Throop streets, has grown seven more rapidly than Chicago itself since the fire, for, besides the large brick building, with an area of 32,200 square feet, there have been added two more box factories within the past year, thus making these works the largest in the country. Dove-tail and all ds of packing-boxes and cases are pro- luced by the thousands daily. : MARBLE. : Sherman & Flavin, Located No. 254 Wabash avenue, are suc- vessors of the old house of A.S. Sherman bf forty years ago. As it was the first marble shop in old Chicago, so it was the first to begin business in the new. The firm em- ploys . sixty workmen—and manufactures marble mantels and docs marble work in general. - is house has done some of the Enest work in the city, having among. other notable buildings supplied the Grand Pacific, Sherman, and Tremont Hotels with marble mantels.] Its business comes from all over the Union. Burlington Manufacturing Company. Manufacturers of mantels, marble floor ‘tiling, monuments, etc. Factory and sales- ~_.Yoom Michigan avenue and Van Buren street. Has furnished the marble work for Court- House, Custom-House, and many of the prin- tipal hotels in Chicago. __ WOMEN OF AMERICA TO QUEEN VICTORIA.

Results of the Auction Sale at the Northwestern Car- Shops. Loans and Building Permits of the Week—Recent Auction Sales. THE OUTLOOK NEVER BETTER. Though agents have been inclined to re- port business quiet during the past week, the sales foot up well. Better than that, nego- tiations which are in progress in one direc- tion and another give promise of a great aud healthy movement. Some very important manufacturing enterprises belonging to Chi- cago, and some not yet settled here, arelook- ing for sites on the line of the West Indiana belt line, Other. new enterprises are about to settle at different points about the city, nearly allof them in the vicinity of South Chicago. Most important of all is the East Chicago project with the beltroad that will run from it. Four of the most important roads entermg the city have joined their forces in its construction. ‘They are the Chicago & Alton, the Baltimore & Ohio, the St. Lou’ Wabash & Pacific, and the Chicago, Milw kee & St. Paul. ‘itis belt line will be built at once, and other important com- panies will join the combination later. English capital, has been secured for the full development of East Chicago, and it is believed: that not less than $3,000,- 000 will be spent there altogether, including the cost of the Forsythe tract. SALES. A.J. Averell has sold to Theresa Mallers 55x114 feet on the northeast corner of Quin- cy street and Fifth avenue for $55,000. This Jot was bought last February for $35,000. iL S. Everhart and F. A. Bragg have sold 40 feet on State street, 40 feet south of Har- mon court, west front, with 55-foot lot on Harmon court, fer’S20,000. A. transaction which illustrates the recent rapid rise in values on the South Side is the sale by Mr. Arthur W. Windett, of the Graud Trunk Railway, of forty lots in his Sub-division near the Stock-Yards, for $26,250, ut the rate of $650 a lot. A special consideration in this transaction was we es- tablishment py the Company of a passenger- station at Centre avenue, thus affording cheap and superior facilities for access to the city. Richard S. Reynolds has bought of John B. Mallers the building at the southeast cor- nerof Lake street and Fifth avenue, with Jot 403¢x80, and the leasehold interest in 54x 80 feet adjoining, for $110,000. The three recent auction sales through the Chieago Real-Estate Exchange have given considerable tone to real-estate valuesnotably in Hyde Park and the southern section of the city. It seems almost inevitable that the great line of handsuine impfovements in the vay of dwellings must extend to the south- ward, east of State street, and between that strect and the lake shore, and in this section should one look for the great increase of val- ues to be brought about by tbe growth of population and wealth in this city. The great manufacturing interests springing up on the Calumet at South Chicago and Pullman, and at Cornell or Grand Crossing, mark the southern boundary of the fine residence quarter, and as one advances further north into the city the tract is materially narrowed down, until at Sixteenth street only one avenue is desirable for residence purposes. Between Sixteenth and Twenty-second Streets are the greatest values for. resi- dence property in the city, and as the Jots are taken up and occupied new-comers are obliged to go further south. The greatest impulse has been felt between Thirty-first and Thirty-fifth streets on Michigan boule- yard, where very handsome dwellings have been erected. Calumet avenue was next to feel the effect of the rise, and property, in- stead of xoing a-begging at $50 to $60 afront foot, is now well up to $100 in the vicinity of ‘Thirty-third street. South Park avenue is - decidedly firmer, and the avenues nearer the Jake shore and the rapid transit trains of the Hlinois Central Rairoad are much: more Sought after atadvancing rates. Cash auc- tion prices Show Vernon and Rhodes ave- nue inside iots will bring $00 a tront foot, while corners 570 to $75, between Thirty-first and Thirty-third streets. These prices, how- ever, look very cheap when. compared. a@ quotation made _at the auction sale. at Kenwood. near Forty-seventh street, on Hyde Park avenue, west fronts, deep lots, running back to the railroad, at $78.50 per front foot, while on Forty-seventh street, ‘west of Cottage Grove avenue, a fifty-foot Jot on the corner of Evans avenue solu at $33 a tront foot, and one on the corner of Chain- plain avenue at $28.50. Considering the tance from the railroad these last were ex- ceptionally good prices realized. Additional outdoor sales at auction will soon be an- nounced, and they will be run well into No- vember this season, as_ this mode’ of selling real estate is gaining daily in popularity. ‘The building and grounds of the Academy of Sciences were sold last week at auction under a foreclosure decree, The purchases were the guarantors of the debt for what it was sold, aud their bid was the amount due $108,000. 7 C. P. Dose and William C. Fricke report, the following sales: The southwest corner of Chicago avenue and Wood street, 50x123 feet, for 55,600 cash; house and lot on De Kalb street, near Flournoy, for $2,300; lot on West Chicago avenue, near Wood street, for $1,100; corner of West Chicago avenue and Rumsey street, 422x118 feet, for 33,000; and house and Jot on Shetlield avenue, near Centre street, for $1,800.

Ten feet of same lot adjoining Mr. Ferry’s lot was bought by him for $4,000. These are the highest fig- ures yet reached for this property. We un- derstand Mr. Tansill proposes to build a fine residence. John H.

Smith. Even that consideration did not express the actual purchase price, be- cause the contract called for deeds of sep- arate lots on payment of certain specific sums, and not on payment pro rata. This shows that itis uot always from the public records that one can obtain correct informa- tion as ta prices. si in another column those interested in real estate will find the advertisement of proper- ty to be sold by Receiver, Jackson, of the ‘Third National Bank. The property is de- sirable, and is distributed in_ the three di- yisions of the city. One{piece is at Auburn, just south of Englewood. SATURDAY’S TRANSFERS.

State street at its southern end is improv- ing greatly, and is developing into one of the most important arteries of the city. Its ad- iirers claim that it is already the largest improved street in this country out- side of New York. E. 5S. Dreyer & Co, will sell forty or fifty Jots at auction avout Nov. 1, between Fifty-second and Fifty-third, on State, Dearborn, and Butter- field streets. Near this property are the Roek. Island: car-shops and the Fort Wayne round-house. There are now six houses on State, nine on Dearborn, and four on Butter- field. E. S. Dreyer & Co. have adopted a wise and efficacious way of stimulating the growth of neighborhoods in which they are interested, ‘hey sold 312 lots at Arnolds- ville, at Forty-seventh street and Ashland avenue, and to the buyers, when they had paid for their lots, they loaned the money to build homes. In this way 300 houses have been built at Arnoldsville.. Morse-cars will rm to Fifty-fifth street next spring.

In letting the ecoutract, however, the Commissioners omittea the word “cube” altogether, and increased the size of the ring half aninech.

About 3230,000 of the $350,000 assessed is yet uncollected, and the feeling against the Park Commis- sioners is so bitter that itis not improbable, unless they compel Amberg to follow his contract, that an injunction will be applied for to restrain them from going ahead, and an order of court to compel them to conform to us ordinance in constructing the boule- vard.
