THE OMAHA DAILY BEE SUNDAY, 1894 TWENTY PAGES OMAHA REALTY MARKET DULL Zome Inquiry for Residence Property, but tiiat is About All, GOOD TIME FOR BUYING AND BUILDING Eullding and Loan Corporations May Or- gnnize a Protective Assoclation—Need of it Described—Promising Platte River Canal Again Discussed. New features in the real estate market during the past week were as scarce as customers, There has been no buying in- terest in the market, and dealers in all grades of property complain of dullness and Inactivity. The corner of Fifteenth and Farnam streets, formerly occupled by the Farnam Street theater, will probably be bought by the Boston Ground Rent company within the next sixty days and leased by the com- pany for ninety-nine years to Mr. Frank B. Kennard of this city, who will, In that event, erect a bullding of stores and offices. There is ome inquiry for residence prop- erty, but the prices seem to prospective purchasers to be too high. A condition ex- Jsts In Omaha residence districts which can hardly be found in another city in the coun- try. It i& impossible to locate the first-class homes entirely In one vicinity. Strangers ask where the fine residence neighborhood Is, and the Inquiry may only be answered by n general reference to any part of the city. The south, southwest, west, northwest and north portions of Omaha all contain some fine and costly houses, but there is no one street In the city which may be, as in sther citles, called the best. In some par- ticulars this is detrimental. Visitors looking over the town out of curiosity ask for a sight of the mansions of the wealthy, and In order to seo any considerable number of them a drive of a much greater duration than Is taken for pleasure becomes neces- wary. It I8 likely that the system of boule- vards now being laid out and bullt will change things in this regard, and that the near future will see a radical improvement In_respect gf a fine residence district. Recent fdpeclosures have started a discus- son among secretaries of building and loan assoclations as to the advisability of organ- Izing a protective assoclation for Omaha so- cieties. The secretaries say that building and loan associations make mistakes and are imposed upon by borrowers with fraudulent Intent as well as other financial institutions. Then again there is a class of contractors who overcharge for building and make false returns on the cost of the work. There is also a class of borrowers who go from one assoclation to another trying to get a loan on over valuation. If the secretaries could form an association to which each could re- port his experience with tricky borrowers and contractors immediate good would result 1o every society. Omaha socleties, however, have been carefully conducted and very little loss has been experienced. PLATTE RIVER CANAL. A Matter of Highest Significance to Omaha and Nebraska, Commissioner J. E. Utt, in discussing the proposed Platte river canal, said yester- day: “Public opinion, as fully expressed at the Commercial club by business men and property holders of the city, s entirely in favor of voting the necessary bonds to aid the Platte canal project. The feasibility of the canal has been investigated by capable, conservative persons, many doubting at first the clainfs made by the promoters. “As a tax proposition the voting of the bonds, instead of being a direct burden, is an economical measure, because the actual advance m price of property will be so great before the interest is due that the increased assessment will décrease the amount col- lected on the dollar assessed. “The advance in price means a demand for real estate, hence holders will be able to pay taxes more easily than now; besides, funds will be released fo invest in factories to utilize the available cheap power. An Investigator questioned the sufficiency of the water supply from the Platte and Elkhorn rivers. Accurate measurements have demon- strated an abundant supply at low water mark. The lack of a better knowledge of the invisible and mysterious forces of elec- tricity led to discussion. It is now con- ceded that the loss In transmitting electric power from the initial point to an extreme part. of the city does not exceed 5 per cent. It was claimed at first by some persons that It exceeded 25 per cent. It must be ad- mitted that the invention and improvement In electrical appliances are In their infancy, and based on the ratio of progress for the Jast five years, the electrical power now pro- fuced by an initial horse power, water or steam, will in a few years be In- creased several times, so that the 30,000- horse power assured to begin with may rea- onably be increased to 100,000-horse power without increasing the water in the canal. This wou'ld be as reasonable to suppose as the improvement made In steam engines. A few years ago the slide valve engine used Bixty pounds of water per horse power per hour. This was reduced to twenty-six pounds by the double valve, to elghteen pounds by the doublevalve condensing, and to twelve pounds by, the triple expansion, an increase of 6500 per qent in power, the steam preduced remainingy the same. ' There is Ereater power in blectricity than steam, therefore, greater possibilities for improve- ment comparatively. The great canals of the world that have been put in operation have proved particularly fortunate to the interests identified with them. The Erie canal made New York the center of com- merce and wealth by regulating freight rates on a low basis between the east and west. The Suez canal revolutionized the shipping of the world. The Manchester canal, built solely by the money and energy of her citi- zens, has made that city a seaport. The construction of the Platte canal will equal in grand results any of the above great enter- prises, because it will make Omaha one of the leading citles of the world. The cost of the canal s comparatively a minimum. In elmplicity of construction It is a large mill race, conducting the water by easy stages to an eminence near the city, giving a fall of 140 feet. “A few years ago the factorfes of this country were all in the ecastern states. They have since moved west, until Chicago, St. Louls and other intermediate cities are Jocating numerous boot and shoe, implement, woolen and other industries. The jobbing centers sdon became manufacturing eenters also. When prosperity returns promoters of factories will locate at Missourl river trade centers, and the manufacturing Interests will contralize in the Missouri valley, be- cause the physical conditions will prevent them going further west. The canal, pro ducing cheap power, will be the distinctive feature that will secure these coming plants to Omaha. ‘The crude material is here In abundance. and the mark t at home and west. Another favorable feature is that of the $2,600,000 the cal will cost, $1,800,000 will Be expended for labor. On the basis of $1.5 per day 2,000 hands will be employed daily Quring the construction for two years, It Is not surprising that the citizens are anxious to have the undertaking progross as rapidly as possible, such great results are guaran- teed.” Bullding Interests. ! There has never been a time In the his- Rory of this city when building could be done Bs cheaply as now. A leading brick con- agtor sald yesterday that brick men were i, ork for almost any price offered. rtnckrlck can be contracted for and laid in he wall for $7 a thousand, and even less. Mhen it is codsidered that two and three ears ago the prevalllng price was from $10 $12 a thousand for the same class of work, he comparison may be easily appreclated. 1l other classes of bullding trades are in the same condition. Now Is not only the Hme to buy, but also to bulld, A bullding permit was issued Saturday Ro Mr. Willam ©. Hamilton for a $7,000 Fesidence, which he will bulld on Park ave- Bue. Joseph Shelby will bulld three two-story wnd basement brick flats on California, near Beveuteenth stree basaaidl A Colored Kepublican Club. The colored republicans of the Sixth ward Bold & meeting last night at Twenty-sixth and Lake streets, the object of which was to form a club of the voters residing in that ward, Gabrlel Young was elected president, John Long secretary and Carter Duncan treas- urer, The president then named a commit- tee on constitution and bylaws.

The club_formed last night will be known as the Sixth Ward Colored Republican club. There are about 250 colored voters in this ward and it is expected when the next regu- lar meeting fs hield that 200 out of these will have signed the membership roll. —em AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA. Newspaper Carrier Beats Off n Highwayman with a Stout Club, James Duncanson, a newspaper carrier, came near losing all the money he collected yesterday afternoon while he was walking by a wooded strip in Albright. A man stepped out from the trees with a mask over his face, and, putting a revolver to Duncanson’s face, told him to throw up his hands. Duncanson had a stout hickory club in his hands and knocked the revolver from the man's hands, and then as the man struck him he hit him with the club and the man took to the wood: The man was roughly dressed and the place where the attempted robbery took place was a lonely strip of woods with no houses in sight.

M. Patterson, recently pastor of the First Presbyterian church, will be pleased to learn of the warm reception tendered him on his initial Sunday as pastor of the Westminster church at Detroit. Al the papers contained long reports of his re- ception and sermon. The following extract is_taken from the Detroit Journal: Rev. J. M. Patterson, the new pastor of Westminster church, preached his initial ser- mon yesterday. His fame as an exponent of the faith had preceded him and at morn- ing and evening services the large audito- rium was crowded from the platform to the doors. On the right and left of the rostrum were groves of potted plants, and directly in front of the new minister bunches ot beautiful lilies. Rev. Mr. Patterson is a handsome man, of commanding presence as a speaker. His fig- ure is stout and erect, he has the healthy appearance of a trained athlete, his voice is deep and well modulated, his gestures easy and graceful. He is without a mannerism of any kind. Mr. Patterson charmed his hearers yes- terday. The most flattering encomiums were passed upon him both morning and evenin At each service his ‘audience seemed impressed with the fact that he was preaching .with reserved power, not putting forth any extra effort on his first appearance. Furthermore, he is orthodox according to the standard set up by the church, a Presbyterian ‘in every sense of the term. In view of the recent discus- sion in the general assembly and outside of it on the question of the mspira- tion of the scripture, it was gratifying to the conservative members of Westminster church to have their new pastor declare that in each page of the bible he can see the hand- writing of omnipotence, He declared him- self, further, a Presbyterian when he dis- claimed absolute holiness on this earth and sald the time would never come, probably, when the Christian would not have kis con- flicts. Before he announced his text in the morn- ing Mr. Patterson, stepping to the front of the platform and holding a small copy of the scripture in his hand, made a short ad- dress. He sald that he was glad to meet with his new flock. It was a hard task, like temporal death almost, to leave a peo- ple among whom he had labored, but he be- lieved he was called of God to Detroit, and he came to Westminster church to give the people all he was and all he had to do, his best in everything. The text chosen for the morning sermon was the 19th verse of the first chapter of Colossians, “For it pleased the Father that in Him shall all fulness dwell.” e spoke without notes and without a pulpit. When he warms to his subject he gesticulates freely and walks from one end of the platform to the other, backward and forward, facing at intervals every section of his audience, preaching into” the gallery and at the back pews as well as to the worshipers sitting at his feet. Two new features that had not been ob- served in the morning were witnessed at the evening service, when once more the pews were filled in every part of the audi- torlum. After the sevening offering the elders, with the contributions in their hands, gathered in a semicircle in front of the plat- form, and the pastor, with hands extended over them, offered up special thanks for glits that had been receivad. After the benediction had been pronounced, preacher and audience still remaining in’ the attl- tude of prayer, the quartet rendered a brief parting hymn Dr. Patterson will be formally inducted into the pastorate of the church after the next meeting of the Detroit presbytery, which will be held In a few weeks.
