EXCAVATION FOR CRANE COM
PANY BUILDING STARTED.
Steel, Brick and Concrete Structure
to Be Put Up on Irving Street,
Near Thirteeenth.
Excavation starts today on the site
on Irving street between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth, which was secured
some time ago by the Crane Company
for Its new warehouse. The contvact
was awarded yesterday to C. J. Cook
& Co., by the architect, "W. C Knighton,
who is completing the plans for the
structure and who will have charge of
the work until the building is finished.
. The ground is 100x200, and on one
half of this a six-story structure Is to
be erected and on the rest a two-story
building. There Is to be a full base
ment under the entire building, which
is to be of steel beams, cast-iron col
umns and brick walls. The floors are
to be of reinforced concrete, thus mak
ing the big warehouse a strictly Ciass
A fireproof building. Plans will not
be ready for about three weeks for the
letting of the general contract, or until
the excavation is finished.
The Crane Company now occupies the
building at 30-34 Second street, and as
the goods handled by the concern con
sist of . plumbers' and steam-fitters'
supplies and other heavy articles, it is
necessary to have a warehouse of un
usual strength. This Important build
ing will make another notable addition
to the warehouse district, which is rap
Idly assuming proportions that will
shortly make, of It the center of the
wholesale business of the city. The
cost of the building will not be an
nounced until the plans are finally
passed upon.
The better sites in the southern end
of the city are also attracting much at
tention, and a sale consummated by D.
B. Mackie yesterday carries out pre
dictions that the district is rapidly as
suming a place in the business sections
of the city, or rather that the congested
condition further north is pushing busi
ness southward. Mr.- Mackin sold for
Emanuel May the lot, 60x100, at the
northeast corner of First and Main
streets, to Giuseppl Corgehnlo for
$63,000. The former owner held the
property for some months and is said
to have purchased it for about $50,000.

M 'ALLEN FOR CELEBRATION
DOES NOT APPROVE OF IDEA OP
QUIET FOURTH.
Advocates Calling: of Committee ot
Citizens to Canvass for Funds.
Position of Mayor.
"Are we to have a Fourth of July
celebration?" fairly. yelled Dan McAllen
when asked what arrangements are
being made for observing the Nation's
birthday. "Why, man, any American
who suggests anything else is not
worthy the name. Of course we shall
have a celebration. Firecrackers, flags,
speeches. Declaration of Independence,
brass bands playing the good old pat
riotic tunes, kids out in red, white and
blue ribbons, zizz-boom fireworks at
night. 'My Country, 'Tis of Thee,' and
hurrah for Yankee Doodle, you know."
Mr. McAllen. went on to explain that
all that is necessary is for the Mayor
to call a meeting of citizens to meet
in the Council Chamber, as was done
last year, organize committees, and in
a day or two the thing's done. He
disapproves the idea of allowing the
day to pass without some celebration;
it may be that the day's programme
cannot be as elaborate as that of last
year, but he said that when Mayor Lane
gives the word the patriotic people will
at once and with enthusiasm carry
out whatever plans are agreed upon.
The general committee of last year
had the following officers: General O.
Summers, president: H. H. Newhall,
vice-president A. B. Steinbach, treas
urer; Lee M. Clark, secretary, and F.
D. Nlcklin,- assistant - secretary. The
sub-committees were on auditing, in
vitation, advertising and printing, pa
rade, music, literary, amusements and
outdoor sports, decoration, transporta
tion, automobiles, fireworks and recep
tion. When Mayor, Lane was asked if he
Intended to take the initiative in hav
ing a celebration this year, he replied
that to the best of his. recollection a
committee of citizens called upon htm
last year and discussed plans, and In
vited him to make the opening address
at the literary exercises. He said if
a celebration is to be given on the com
ing Fourth, no doubt Mr. Allen or
some other merchant would start the
movement by issuing a call for a meet
ing of those who would be willing to
undertake the work of organization. He
Intimated that it is hardly a part of his
official duty to make municipal mat
ter of the affair, as action by the Coun
cil would ba necessary to bring it up
to him in his official capacity.
tect, were in part heard yesterday after
noon by the fire committee of the execu
tive board, and will be concluded at a
special meeting to be held later. Mr.
Williams alleges discrimination, and says
the inspector makes arbitrary rulings on
the building ordinance, and permits vio
lations of the law.

Hood River Strawberry Festival and
Excursion Postponed.
Word comes from Hood River that the
unusually warm weather which has pre
vailed this week has precipitated a most
unusual condition In the strawberry in
dustry. The berries have ripened so rap
idly that it has been necessary to sum
mon almost every man, woman and child
in the community to harvest and pack
the crop to keep from losing it,. so that
they cannot possibly do Justice to the en
tertainment of visitors. The special train
excursion advertised for next Saturday
has therefore been Indefinitely postponed.
