CITY TRANSFERS AND LOANS. Conditlon of the Market Favorable for a Good Fall and Winter Buslness. City real estate, in sympathy with every- thing else, is feeling the effects of the gen- eral improvement of business. To the casual observer it is surprising that the ef- fect has not been more apparent upon values. The season has witnessed in- creased activity of the market and the movement noticeable since the vacation warrants the assurance of good fall and winter sales. The attendance at the auction sales of the past week has been large. The inquiry respecting the property.before these sales is decidedly encouraging, the public re- main throughout the auction, which in- dicates a growing desire to inform them- celves respecting prices now obtainable, and the results have been such as to strengthen the good feeling among brokers. Private sales eertainly have been more numerous, because sellers are willing to meet the present times with figures that will Owing to a reduction in rents investments are offered at figures that would not have been entertained a year or two ago. Values on all kinds of real estate touched bottom me time ago, and now present ev dences of advancement which past experi- ence has shown always follows the energy and economy aroused by periods of de- pression.

The success of Baldwin & Hammond and O’Farrell & Co. in effecting sales in this section of San F¥rancisco is a conundrum 10 & great many. COUNTRY REAL ESTATE. During the week the following com- mnnication was received from the country land dealer, E. K. Alsip. It treats of colonization, a vital question to those in- terested in the rapid setllement of the country lands of this State: How to secure population is the mooted col- onization question with every young State, and & Eroblum;mu vexed all Kansas, Nebraska 8and what was formerly known as the Western States, which did not have the disadvantages of distance to encounter that we have. They were settled ng{in a great measure by the Mllfi dle States and New England. Even then coloni- zation was resorted to to secure the population. The southern portion of our State secured more from colonization than any other way. We have sent our California on Wheels east- ward, we have had our exhibition at the World’s Fair and standing exhibitions at other points in the East, yet immigration does not come as ufidly as we would wish, and in order to facilitate matters I am of the opinion that coionization will have to be resorted to more than it has, and a greater effort made than has been made in the past tosecure popu- lation if we wish to securea rapid settlement of our State. Very little attention has been peid to colonizing in the centrsl and northern insure investors a proper return. | portion of this State. Waiting for immigration to come of itself is a very slow process. Two thousand five hundred miles distance from the center of population is a great drawback. It requires an extra effort and personal so- licitation among our Eastern friends to induce them to break up their homes and move to the far West, yet we can do so if we select theright location and a good body of land and make personal solicitation among them with stron newspaper indorsement. They are educate up to what we can produce and realize that we have the finest climate in the world, and that we produce fruits and vegetables of all varieties, and it oniy requires personal solicitation to show them our many other advantages and that they can make themselves self-support- ing on a farm. The wholesale merchant who expects to sell his goods withouta drummer as well s newspaper support will in a short time fimd the majority of his goods in the store and a depleted pockei-book ifrom store ex- penses. So it is with the emigrant—we must visit him, as well as advertise our resources in the daily press, and show him our advantages. Landsin California have depreciated in value in the last few years to such an extent that we can offer them “upon prices and terms that are not a drawback to the settlement of our State, as heretofore was true. Colonies selected with- outa view to locality or fertility or prices in & measure retard immigration. We must profit by lessons in the past and select good lands in desirable locationsand sell at fair prices. We, ourselves, have sold small tracts in Central California and have been very | careful to select the best of land for this pur- pose and we have vet to find the man that has been dissatisfied with his choice. We find that by concentrating we accomplish more than by spreading over a large territory. From the in- formation which we have received from a large number of Eastern people who have lately come into this State and from corresyondeuce with parties who are interested in the colony propositions of California, we are led to believe that there has not been a time since the gold fever of the early days when so many people werelooking toward thisState for future homes. The Howard & Wilson Publishing Company of Chicago, proprietors of Farm, Field and Fireside and Western Rural, who are handling the Sunset Colonies in Chieago, have had over twenty thousand inquiries about this tract of land although the survey- ors have just completed their work and over thirty locations have been made. The company intends running an_excursion direct from Chicago on the 14th of November, and if one half come that are booked there will be over twelve carloads. This company is so well pleased with the success of this adventure that they are negotiating for other tracts in the central portion ot this State. They have recently come to the realization of the fact, as have most of the Eastern people that are looking toward California, that it is the cen- tral portion that furnishes the boneand sinew, as it were, of this State. Fruit here, as we all know, can be reised without irrigation and we donot have to resort toartificial means to raise a varied crop. Our soil is stronger and holds | moisture better and our rainfall is greater than in the south. The residents of our cities have in a great | measure neglected the country. They have | devoted too much time entirely to their own growth, believing that the city would grow without the country. They are now finding ont their mistake. = Had they assisted the | country more than they have, assisted in | building up the interior, the cities would now | be in & more prosperous condition. Settle up | the interior and the population of the city will | take care of itself. The country can’ live without the city, but the city cannot get along 1‘ without the assistance of the country. Iam glad to see the Hali-million Club contempiat- | ing doing something toward this end. Had | these men acted yearsago the wholesale houses | in San Francisco would not be in their present condition. There is not another city in the | world that has the commercial advantages of | san Francisco but would have had a second | trans-continental road built years ago. Our | rich men could have well afforded the outlay of capital necessary to accomplish this reliei. | The action taken by our banks and capitalists | bes too often hed a tendency to retard the growth of the interior. Interest has been too high. Farmers could not pay the high rate of interest asked and very often sold their products before they were grown. The rates on interest must come down stiil more and | they surely will. | " The banks have refused in & great measure to | loan upon country property, but large sur- | pluses, as the recent statements show, will | force a reduction in _the rates of interest and cause capital to seek avenues of investment. | Tt will be &+ godsend to this State when money | can be secured for from 4} to 6 per cent net | upon California lan | Let the citizens of this State organize them- | selves into colonization clubs or stock com: panies, purchase suitable tracts of land, fix s reasonable price and terms on them, send en- voys with the backing of the daily press to the East and Europe to solicit colonists and the problem of settling our country lands is solved. E. E. Harlow of gtockton, agent of the | Stockton and Arnd¥colonies and the new | town of Escalon, in the San Joaquin Val- ley, writes: The Stockton colony lands are selling rapidly. The first excursion from the Eastern States will leave Chicago for Escalon on October 25. E<calon is the headquarters of the colonists, elthough entirely independent of the colony project. Several streets and avenues have | been gradea and placed in fine order. | The last section of the canal will be com- pleted in a week or ten days,and the water will be ready for distribution over the rich loam colony lands atsmall cost, Families are now locating on these colony lands, and the tide of settiers is heading ‘“Escalonward” rapid E\ulilmg has already commenced, and plans are being prepared for a hotel, the contracts for which will be let atonce. The Valley road graders are rapidly nearing alon, and rail communication will be ac- complished in from thirty to forty days. David Bush of the country department of O'Farrell & Co. takes a cneerful view of affairs in his line. He made the statement last week In & quiet way we have been bringing the country lands of this State to the attention of the people of Europe. encovraging reports from an envoy of this firm. We have received recently numerous letters from the East and Europe about farm- ing, fruit and dairy lands in this State. There is no mistaking the fact that the sale of wine at better prices this year has created a ve demand for small vineyard properties. While advancement is siow in the country real estate market it is none the less certain. A. J. Lyonof the old firm of country land | dealers, Gaman & Lyon, surveyed the coun- | try land question from the standpoint of loans when seen the past week. He said: A peculiar anomaly is presented by the fact that the banks would make big loans on farms | prior to the depression on & too high valua- | tion, and now when values are on bedrock very | few 'country loans are made. Furthermore, | loans when desired by the farmer now are | more often for legitimaie use and not for wild | speculation, hence so much the betier. Own- | erscultivating the land_should be accommo- dated by banks, for it will allow them to make improvements that otherwise would be impos- sible. The development that this would cause in the country would eventually benefit the | City for the City and country are mutually de- pendent. Bovee, Toy & Co. report the sale of sub- divisions of the McMahon ranch amount- ing to $11,475 during the past week. This ranch, comvrising 4100 acres, is being sold { off in'small tracts from ten acres up. It is a part of the Wolfskill grant, situated | on the south bank of Putan Creek, Solano | County. It will be remembered that this county took the gold medal at the late Midwinter Fair as the banner county of California. Solano embraces some of | the finest soil in the State, and the Mc- | Mahon ranch is a sample of its best land, | being a strong sediment loam from 30 to 40 feet deep, adapted to the growth of all kinds of fruit orcereals. It is a big step in the settlement oi this State to see such large holdings of rich land being divided up into small tracts and offered upon favorable terms. C. M. Arnold, manager of the Western Land Company, has just returned from a visit to many of the large Eastern cities of the United BStates. e reports having made close inquiry as to the disposition to emigrate to this State, and believes the next year will see a big influx of peovle just because an improved financial condi- tion will make it possible for them to taruily carry out their determinations. M. D. Eaton of Eaton, Newell & Buck- ley, Stockton, reports the sale of 280 acres | of tine tule lana at $75 per acre to a Mr. Hart of Tulare, Cal. 2 MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. J. W. Burnham of the firm of Burnham & Marsh has just returned from a pro- loneed tour of the Eastern States. Mendell Welcker, owner of the terminal tract on the Stockton water front, has ex- ecuted deeds to the Stockton and Lodi Railroad for depot and terminal grounds. Charles Summner Young, owner of the Searchlight Addition to Stockton, has re- moved his offices from the second floor of the Crocker building to the basement floor, the quarters formerly occupied by the State Board of Trade. The latest fad is a Saturday night ex- cursion to Stockton by the steamers of the California Navigation Company, under the auspices of the offices of George W. Hopkins, at 20 Montgomery street. Trans- portation both ways, including a carriage drive to the principal points of interest around Stockton and a bath in the famous Jackson Natural Gas Well Baths, as well We have just received | as meals and berths, is furnished for the sum of §3 40, which is cheaper than stay- ing at home. Last Saturday’s excursion included over forty people whose expecta- tions of Stockton’s activity will not be dis- appointed. A. J. Rich & Co. have effected the lease of the premises at 1132 Market street to Nicol the tailor for a term of vears. At the demise of Mrs. Theodora Shilla- ber, the sister-in-law of the author of *“Mrs. Partington,” she left a ten years’ trust which has now expired. All of the prop- erty has been placed in the hands of A.J. Rich & Co. The confirmation of the sale of the James Carroll estate has been postgoned to Wednesday, October 9, 1895, by Judge Slack’s court. . The next regular auction of Von Rhein & Co. is fixed for Thursday, October 24. There will be probate and trustee sales and the usual miscellaneous catalogue. To-day at 12 o’clock G. H. Umbsen & Co. will sell at public auction, by order of the administrator, the undivided interest of Harriett Miles, deceased, in_the property at 116 Gilbert street, near Brannan. The sale is subject to the approval of the Pro- bate Court. Lee & Kiser, general real estate agents, have removed their offices from 320 to 306 Montgomery street. The building contracts recorded during the week ending September 28 amount to $38,259. SUICIDE OF A HOLLANDER. He Prefers Death to a Life of Poverty and Hard Work. Y. A. Y. D. du Mosch, a young Hol- lander of good family, who came here from Japan a short time ago, decided yesterday that it was better to die than to live by washing dishes. He has been out of means for some time, but for the past two weeks was a dishwasher at 334 Bush street. He hired a room at 514 Bush street Saturday night, the landlady, Mrs. Belbor, letting him have it on credit. Then he turned on the gas and was discovered at 2 o’clock vesterday afternoon asphyxiated. He left a letrer addressed to his brother, Herr J. D. M. du Mosch of Zaandam, Holland, in which he said he thought death preferabie to life. He asked that the firm of Van Net & Rich of Zaandam be informed of his demise. Mr. du Mosch was 24 years old. He had a fine education, and had been attending the Lincoln Night School, studying Span- ish. Rabbi Voorsanger was among his friends. B — REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS.
