The Pa cific Bridge Works Company Is completing both bridges over Sullivan's Gulch one at Union avenue, a steel structure, and the other at East Twenty-eighth street, of reinforced concrete. For the Unlon-ave-nue bridge the last piece of Iron was swung Into place at the north side Thurs day evening, connecting with the abut ment. It yet remains to rivet the parts together and lay the double tracks and pavement. Under reasonably favorable circumstances the bridge will be com pleted and open for general traffic and ' the streetcars In the early part of Oc tober, probably the sixth. The reinforced concrete bridge on East Twenty-eighth street will probably be finished In the early part of October, or sooner. The concrete work on this structure Is prac tically complete and the double tracks are being put down. The wooden '"forms" still stand, but will likely be removed within the next few days by which time the concrete will have "set." Better pro gress was made on this bridge than the one on Union avenue, for the reason that no time was taken up in driving plies for the foundation for piers. Put Wires Underground. W. H. Bristol, member of the executive com mittee of the Holladay-lrvlngton Im provement Association. Is preparing data relative to placing high-power electric wires under ground. When this organisa tion requested that the high-power wires in that neighborhood be placed under ground before the hard pavements were laid, reply was made that It was not practicable. Mr. Bristol gathered statis tics showing cities la which such wires were placed under ground, and he. as a member of the recently-appointed charter committee from that club, will put these statistics In form for submission to the Charter Revision Commission. The Holla-day-Irvlngton Association is seeklne; to have all wires placed under ground so that when the streets there shall shall have been Improved there will be no poles to mar the beauty of the district.

BANK CLEARINGS INCREASE CITT'S COMMERCIAL- CONDITION , SHOWS GOOD GAIN. Crop Movement In Full Swing: and Money Pouring to Farmers' Pockets. Portland hank clearings for the week nded Thursday were 25.988,000, an In crease of 2.4 per cent as "compared with the corresponding week last year. This is the first time since the money trou bles became acute all over the country last Fall that the Portland clearing-house statement has been on the side of gain. It has been several months now since the greatest comparative decrease in clearings was shown, and slowly but steadily the figures have been climbing up to the total reached a year ago, when prosperity was at Its height and business In all lines waa booming. Those figures have now been equaled and exceeded. The daily transactions of the Portland banks can be expected to Increase from this time on. The crop movement is in full swing and money is pouring Into the Interior In a golden stream. The pros perity of the farmers, who are realising extremely high prices for their crops, has had Its effect on the country merchants all over the interior and they are buying from the local Jobbing houses with thelr accustomed freedom. The result is a return to normal condi tions In practically all lines of trade. The gains should continue to be shown from this time forward. Only a fraction of the crops have been moved to date and as the movement grows It will soon reach the time corresponding to the period of last year when a shrinkage In business began to be apparent, a fore runner of the financial troubles of Octo ber and November. In addition to the improvement In cur rent trade, the resumption of railroad construction has done much to stimulate confidence In the future and awaken business activity her and In the country to be traversed by the new lines. The Improvement In the foreign and domestic demand for lumber has also been a strengthening Influence, affecting every branch of the business from the logging camps to the transportation companies. Portland and Spokane were the only cities on the Pacific Coast whose bank clearings for the week showed an In crease. The gain at Spokane, as com pared with the same week last year, was 4.4 per cent. Seattle's clearings fell 7.7 per cent behind last year's, while Ta coma had a decrease of 3.6 per cent. The loss at San Francisco was 1.1 per cent and at Los Angeles 7.1 per cent.
