REAL ESTATE.

@fs~ @~.s n kss
There ia little to say about the condition of
The real estate market except to ropeat SUBJ
stantia'iy what was sold last week, viz. that
ehere IL still an active buBincss in tho sale Of
eheap lots IN the suburbs, and but little doing in
the highot-priced property In the central part Of
the city. Tho fact Is that, except as regards
baslne9H property, the traffic in real estate has
oeon affected by tho financial crisis 1ess than al
most any oshor branch Of business In this city.
We hear, almost daily, Of ofrors Of money from
parties ii. both Eastern and Wostorn towns for
lots in Chicago. A largo proportion Of
theso ohere however, reHult In nothing.
hocause tho parties who mako them oxpoot to
BUY ut largo reductions On former prices. On
tho other hand, we hoar Of several pieces OF un--
improved modium and 1rat-class residence
property, IN Some Of the principal residence
quarters, being sold for from Ii to 20 por cent
less than Was domandod for 1t before tho panic.
bae IN every such case tho consideration for the
reduction in price has been large cash nav.
mont. Any one who is obliged to scll rea] ostato
ct any time, OF course, only does 40 to got realv
cash,-an aTticle which, US everybody knows. ia
60 scarce just now. that large cash payment
can only DO had BY an important reduction in
price. -
DWELLING RENTS.
IEe change recently necesBtated In the .soalo
Df living exponaeB accounts for the greatly in
creased demand within ths past month for
tho falling of in tho demapd for resi-
denceB that, have rented for 1900 per
annun and upward. It eeoms pretty certain
that there must DO . reduction Of from 10 to 20
per cent In the rentals Of ali Residences that
haye commanded as much aa 800 por month
while on tho other hand cottagos That hayo ront-
60 , a. ~ @ to sa0 por month will be more in de-
There IL considerable demand for Residences
