Green A Cos. s reDort on cotton futures savs:
“The contract market has simply repeated its
former showing. The ‘long’ line' of operators
manifest want of confidence both hero and
abroad, and there has been further selling out,
•with offerings for the day weighty enough to
carry a decline of 15® 18 points on old crop, with
no appearance of resistance on the part of lead
ing ‘bull' operators. The decline, however,
brought out little desire to cover, and closed
the market a fraction better, though without
manifestation of much strength in the old crop
and September. Briefly the situation looks very
tired, and without evidence that much effort is
being made to tender assistance.”

Chicago, June 18.— Both the wheat, and corn
pits were almost deserted to-day. and trading in
wheat did not amount to the tenth of its usual
volume. The only transaction to-day of any
note was the purchase of 400,000 bushels of July,
The effect of this purchase was to send wheat
to its highest point of the day. July opened a
shade lower, at 72*4c, but after the first flurry
was over it liecame steady around 72)4e. Later
on, when the large purchase mentioned was
made, it advanced to 73c. became firm and held
so for the remainder of the session, closing at
7294 c. June opened at 71c and closed at
71)4c, the highest figure of the day. The re
ceipts of wheat continue quite free. Freight
engagements, however, were made for 810,000
bushels of wheat, and a rapid decrease in the
amount in store is looked for. Corn opened firm
and higher, owing to reports of hot and dry
weather in the West. July opened at 37)4c and
advanced to 73J4&3756C. After the first effect
of the crop scare had worn off corn eased back
a little, Jtuy closing at 8796 c. The effect of the
hot weather report was even more marked on
oats Mian on corn. It was said that oats were
looking very bad over quite an extent of terri
tory. July opened at 26fee, advanced to 2614 c.
lint* later, in sympathy with the general dullness
prevailing in other markets, reacted to gS-’V'*.
giifec. A dull, weak and Unsettled feeling pre
vaiied in the provision market and trading was
light. Receipts of hogs were moderately free
for the closing day of the week and prospects
were favorable for good arrrivals at all Western
points during the coming week. Longer deliv
eries. August and September, appeared to at
tract most attention. Inquiry for shipments
was light and sales were meagre, as buyers and

THE R? AL ESTATE CAMPAIGN.
Speculation in Houses and Lots on a
Big Boom.
New York, June 18.—The year has wit
nessed a remarkable revival of interest in
real estate here. Half a dozen years of
a(>athy have passed away, and speculators
who formerly dabbled m stocks, oil and
wheat are now trying real estate as an easy
.road to fortune. The future of New York
seems to be assured. Its trade increases as
population increases. Rich men front the
West tre constantly settling here and build
ing palaces. The total area of Manhattan
Island, on which most of the city stands, is
only about twenty-two square miles, and of
this ut least one-half is taken ut> by the
streets and parks. This leaves only a few
thousand lots to be operated iu, and the
mast of these are held by wealthy persons.
The annexed district in Westchester county,
now known as the Twenty-third and Twen
ty-fourth words, has also felt, the speculative
impetus. Six new parks will lie provided
iu this new district and the population* of
these two wards, which a few yeors ago
were composed of straggling county towns,
is now fully 70,000.
The passion for display in New York real
estate bus greatly increased, and larger lots
are used for the mansions of successful
traders and others. This, of course, in
creases the demand for lots, and they are
being sold very rapidly. It was by real es
tate investments, it will be remembered,
that John Jacob Astor greatly increased
his fortune. The nucleus of his vast pos
sessions came from the fur trade but tifteeu
years after landing in New- York, he be
gan to invest in lots beyond the populated
section of the island, and his descendants
have continued this pohey. Wherever a
vacant tract has been obtainable at a low
price they have bought it. They own about
900 houses, oiul do not insure them, as it
would involve less expense to lose a house
now and then than to pay for the Insurance.
They have been generous at times iu their
contributions to religious and charitable
enterprises, but have always refused to sub
scribe to neighborhood improvements. It
there is an old tumble down house
close to the property, or on it, they never
subscribe a penny to have it taken away,
nor will they subscribe for the ere* tion of a
church on a favorable corner of the proper
ty or iu the neighbor!! rod. They simply
say that in time ail these improvements wiil
come without expense to them. They take
scrupulous care of their houses. Nothing is
allowed to decay or remain out of order.
They seldom sell any of their real estate.
Old John Jacob Astor, largely through his
real estate investments, was worth #25,000,-
000 when lie died in 1847. This seemed a
largi r fortune then than double that amount
would to-dav, because there were lev r
rich men. Ine Goeleta, the Lorillards, the
Stuyvesants, the Rhinelanders aud other
wealthy families followed John Jacob As
tor’s policy it; the matter of real estate and
have amassed groat fortunes partly by this
means. The 300 acres below Chambers
street seemed destined to remain the most
valuable 800 acres in the world, and these
rich families are constantly purchas
ing property in that section.
Buildings there must have ele
vators and rise to a height of eight
or ni ie stories in some localitiee or the rent
would not yield u fair return on the invest
ment. Lots in the neighborhood of Wall
street cost in some cases front #200,000 to
$400,000. Tile largo plot occupied by the
Mills building coot #1,000,000, and the build
ing itself nearly $2,000,000 more. The centre
of real estate values in New York is iu the
neighborhood of the Stock Exchange or
about the corner of Wall street aud
Broadway. The east side of New York on
tbe island is pretty well built up, and only
almvothe Harlem is there much room for
real estate improvement. Sometimes, how-,
ever, property is held for years in odd nooks
of the city without the least uttompt, at im
provement. The old Rutgers mansion, with
two acres, stood on the east side of town, a
little below Grand street for years, when
the ground was worth from #fi,wo to SB,OOO
a lot, thus representing about #200,000 lying
idle. The original Rutgers was a ricu
merchant in the days of the revolution. On
the west side, at the corner of Bleecker and
Charles streets, the Van Ness mansion stood
up to about 1874. Van Ness was a man of
means, who disapproved of new-fangled
ideas in New York, and occupied the house
in which lie had lived for many years up to
the da)- of his death, calmly ignoring the
surging sea of population and change around
him and raising cabbages and potatoes in
his extensive grounds. Counting the loss of
interest on his money, the potatoes cost him
at least SBO a barrel and his cabbages $5 or
s>fi a head. When he died the green old
oasis in the stony desert of the lower west
side of New York was changed liv the en
teiprising heirs into brick and mortar us iu
the twinkling of an eye.
Speculators in real estate in years gone by
made some curious mistakes in guessing
which way fashion would drift. Many
shrewd merchants, for instance, thought
that Second avenue would l>e the fashion
able thoroughfare, but Fifth avenue throw
it into conmarative obscurity. Others
thought that West Fourteenth street would
be the favored haunt of wealth and fashion,
and one of the most pretentious houses built
in New York until within a comparatively
few years was the Douglass mansion on
Fourteenth street, between Sixth and Sev
enth avenues. The house has a frontage
and depth of seventy-five feet, and ut the
roar there is an addition covering three lots.
The ceilings are eighteen feet high, and the
main hall is as w ideas some of the old
streets of lower New York or the older part
of Boston. It was abandoned
us a residence ytars ago, was used
for a time as tbe Metropolitan Museum of
Art and is now a furniture warehouse. The
fashionable shopping district, however, is
just east of the old mansion, aud it will yet
Dcconto very valuable property. At the
close of the war there was not a single store
on Fourteenth street west of Broadway.
It is now the very centre of the shopping
district. Eveu Fifth avenue must bow its
bond to the nilfc of trade which is gradually
swallowing with greedy maw the stately
brownstone mansions once the home of
wealth and fashion. Business is creeping
steadily up the famous thoroughfare, I round
evidently for Fifty-ninth street, anil the
palaces of the Vanderbilts and of Stewart
may yet become warehouses, trade turning
on its kings mid harassing them with a
locust plague of business enterprise.
The lienox family own a largo amount of
property on that avenue. The elder
Lenox was a dry goods merchant, who
died in 1820, leaving property then esti
mated at $1,000,000 to his two children,
James and Henrietta, neitherof whom were
ever married. Each built a mansion in 1842
on Fifth avenue, at Twelfth street, then
well up town, end there they lived in sepa
rate houses in solitary state. They inherited
two plots of ground on Fifth avenue, one of
eight or nine acres at. the lower end of that
thoroughfare, and the other of some twentv
acres at Sixtieth street. The original Lem x
abjured his children not to sell tne land at
once, as it would" some day become im
mensely valuable, lli.s predictions have
proved true. The grim old Scotchman’s
million has increased twenty fold. It is be
lieved that the great centre of fashion
during the closing years of this century
and during the whole of the next will be
wer.l of Eighth avenue and north of Fifty
ninth street and extending in time be
yond Bpuyten Duvril Creek, jxipu
lating JVlorningside avenue and
the Riverside Drive, where stands the
tomb of Gen. Grant. There will be New
York Heights to outshine Brooklyn Heights
and swift transj>ortation to offset, the dis
tance from the business centres. The North
river tunnel, the East river bridge at Black
well’s Island, the Harlem river ship canal and
improved means of rail transit will make
New York perhaps the grandest city in the
world. Those who buy land in New York,
Br< >klyn and certain spots on the New Joisey
shore will probably find it a profitable in
vestment. When one buys land there is
something tangible for the money. It can
not be wiped out, as iu stoc’s. With the
annexed district New York now has an area
of forty-one and a half square miles, and it
will make new estate princes in the grand
