BONA fide sales of real estate are
thickening these days. Not so fast, per-
haps, as an ocean fog of cold night !;
but fast enough to give the agents a de-
cidedly more buoyant gait as they go
down along the street. The buyers are
still shy and cautious and want to know
they have found the cheapest thing in
the city before they will sign. One man
who made a purchase at the close of
last week need have no misgivings as to
his venture. He found hole at the
corner of Temple and Fort streets, i'm
mediately next to the Christian Church,
471sx100 feet, the longest side being on
Fort street, and gobbled it up at about
Sill 900 rs the sale is reported. There was
little "trade" in the transaction, but
it was nearly all cash. That is about
$3.50 fost on the Temple street frontage,
and it is a dead bargain, and no mis-.
take. The lot could have been sold two
years ago for double the money, and cost
the recent owner, if we remember Alright,
$4,000. The new buyer will put fine
brick building on the lot at once, and
the revenue from it will pay probably
from the start about 20 per cent. on the
money invested.

A MOST excellent committee has been

A MOST excellent committee has been
selected to confer with the City Council
in formulating plan to sewer the city
and dispose of the sewage. A large
number of the gentlemen selected are ex.
perienced engineers, and the others are
all we'll versed in city affairs in par
ticular and in matters generally. As the
matter stands, it is dollars against apples
that this committee will be able
to give most valuable help in
the matter proposed for their considera-
ton. If the Council is really in earnest
about sewering the city and finding the
best way to dispose of the sewage, they
will work tremendously with this COM
mittee of citizens and give the city safe
and economical plan at an early day.
The persons chosen are in nearly all
cases distinguished for the excellent
quality, popularity called 'tlevel head. !"
Common sense and honesty ought to
characterize the plan to be proposed by
the joint effort of the Council and the
committee.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
CHICAGO, September 23.-The NAM
moth publishing house of Bedford,
Clarke & Co., which has a large estab-
lishment here and branches in New
York and San Francisco, went to the
wall today. This afternoon judgments
we're entered against them in the Cir.
cult Court in favor of the First National
Bank and 8. A. Maxwell. Attachments
we're issued and shortly after the place
was seized by the Sheriff. A receiver
was appointed by Judge Shepard. The
failure, while surprise to the general
public. had been expected some time by
those familiar with the firms standing.
Lawyer Newman, attorney for several
of the creditors, and also for the receiver,
said three things we're responsible for
the failure. In 1886 the entire plant was
destroyed by fire, causing loss of over
$4,000. The firm promptly resumed
business, but during the last two years
suffered very heavily by failures of GUS
toners. The collapse Of one firm in San
Francisco alone lost them about SIC, 900.
In addition to this, competition between
eastern and western publishers, psrtic.
ularly of the standard works, has been
so brisk that the market has been almost
wholly destroyed.
Newman said, in his opinion, the
assets of the company amount to about
$500 900, and the liabilities to about the
same. The principal creditors are the
Grove Printing Company, over $150, 900
Donahue and Henneberry, $75 900; First
National Bank of Chicago, $4,000; S.
A. Maxwell, $4,000. Besides there are
heavy creditors in New York and San
Francisco.
Another lawyer, discussing the cause
of the failure, said Andrew McNally, of
Rand, McNally & Co., who is Belford' q
father-in-law, had been backing the firm
for some time, and that his refusal to
endorse the firms paper prompted the
First National Bank to enter up judg-
ment. The attorney thought if Mr.. Nc
Nally had not discontinued his support
the firm might have pulled through.
Thomas G. Hammond, a member of
the firm of Walker, Oakley & Co., leath-
or merchants, is receiver. His bond is
$100, 900. Prior to the appointment Of
the receiver, Donahue & Henneberry,
who are the largest creditors. filed bill
in which it is stated that the broken
corporations capital was 100000, OF
which only 100000 had been paid in.
The nominal assets, according to this
bill, amount to less than 5000, 900. while
the Indebtedness will exceed $4O0, 1000.
New York, September 23.-The New
York branch of Belford, Clarke & Co.,
publishers, was attached by the Sh erifi
today to satisfy claims amounting to
$25 1000.

RESPONSIBLE parties stand now ready
to offer to take the sewage of the city at
the city limits for term of years, and
on conditions understood to be favorable
to the taxpayers. These offers are not
made, for the reason that the Council
imposes conditions which are considered
absolutely prohibitory of any offers being
made. Part Of the sewage, as the Coun.
Gil advertised for bids, is to be taken
from point far inside the city limits,
at the intersection of Sixth and Ander-
son streets. To take the sewage from
that point it will be necessary to secure

DAME Rumor's busy tongue is waggine
at both ends with outgivings that the
Grand Jury has taken in hand the ques
ton of loaning the city funds out at in.
terest, as provided by the charter. Of
course no one knows the details of any
question before this august body, but the
Grand Jury now existing has been very
energetic one, and has tried hard to fur.
nish reason for it's existence. The
new charter ia explicit in its require.
ments that the city funds shall be either
in the Treasurer's vaults in the City
Hall, or loaned out at the highest
rates of interest obtainable. 1t is
thought that the money is moi
in the city vaults, but is loaned
out to half score of banks
where it draws no interest. 1t ia
well known that it is not loaned out on
interest, for the Council has refused to
loan it to the highest bidder on the
grounds that to SO comply with the law
would be against the "public interest, -
as it would withdraw 80 much money
from circulation. 1t would be very
difficult to find where the Council gets
the power to sit in judgment on the or
ganic law of the municipality. Their
function would appear to be to comply
with the law and let the charter bear the
responsibility of any injury worked to
the public interest. The Council
may be looking at private Gin
terest" as it is drawn down in
bank share dividends more than at the
"public interest" in this matter and
thst is probably what the Grand Jury
has in its eye. 1t will be interesting to
see this body march en- masse into the
Treasurer's Office with the open charter
in hand and demand to have the city
funds counted before their eyes, or to be
shown certificates of deposit for these
funds, with the rate of interest they are
drawing attached.
