The bulk of the cargo of the Numantia was discharged at San Francisco. The principal cargo for Portland was 2Q0 bales of gunnies. In addition there is a quantity of Chinese merchandise and rice. The gunnies will net the Govern ment close to toOOO in duties and the balance of the cargo will not run far in advance of 1500. This makes a poor Showing for the local Custom-House, which formerly averaged about tSO.000 or eyO.tjOO on the arrival of each Chinese ship. The action of the Hnrrlman people In forcing the trans-Pacific steamers to discharge overland freight at San Fran cisco. Is responsible. The Numantia will discharge her Eastern freight at Mont gomery No. 2, and she will then come to Alaska dock and finish the gunnies and merchandise. , BIRTHDAY OF CROWN" PR1NXE Officers and Crew of Cruiser Puglia Will Observe the Day.

The prediction con cerning more important building applies particularly to the downtown district, where land Is constantly in demand, and where the owners are disposed to offer reasonable terms to investors who guaran tee the erection of structures comparable In material and design to the large num ber that already lend an air of solidity and prosperity to the commercial quarter. Real estate operators are In perfect agreement regarding the brisk demand for figures and facts concerning the situa tion In Portland and its environs, then numerous Inquiries clearly indicating a continuance of the confidence which for many years has so greatly contributed to the upbuilding of the city. It is worthy of note that the cost of downtown real estate, although well up in figures, is by no means excessive, and there can be no better proof of this fact than the persistence of inquiries and the manifest willingness of capitalists to place their money where opportunity offers. While the growth of the downtown dis trict continues satisfactorily, there has been a surprising increase In the num ber of new homes. Localities that offer special Inducements to the investor intent on the selection of a desirable spot for residence are subjects of earnest inquiry and frequent Investigation. The name and fame of Portland have traveled far bpyond the Oregon borders, a fact con clusively shown by the property pur chase entries In the books of the real estate dealers. During the last week there were a large number of Important transactions, and the applications for building permits com pared favorably with those applied for during the corresponding week last year. Security In the financial market has had the effect of encouraging buyers of land and buildings, and reasonable rates of interest on loans' enable, investors to take advantage of favorable sites and struc tures. A spirit of optimism prevails in all the local offices, and there Is every Indica tion that the next few months will bring with them a season of real estate trading profitable alike to the Investor and the agent. , Indicative of the great amount of build ing now in progress is the work being done on the Young Women's Christian Association building, the Beck building, the new Fenton and the Oregon. Hotel Annex. These will be completed in a short time, and soon afterward the Young Men's Christian Association struc ture and the Rosenblatt Hotel building will approach the period for occupancy. At Seventh and Stark streets the old buildings which occupied the site for the nine-story annex to the Imperial Hotel have been wrecked and the work of ex cavating for the foundation will soon begin. The cement Is already on the ground. Work Is proceeding rapidly at the site of the new warehouse to be erect ed for the Pacific Paper Company. The cement retaining walls and foundation walls for the -Gay Lombard building are In place and the work on the ce ment footings is nearlng completion. Excavation for the Charles K. Henry building at Fourth and Stark streets is well under way at the direction of Contractors Litherland & Abrey. They obtained a permit for a retaining con crete wall to cost 11000. The founda tion of the brick building at the west has been underpinned with brick. Work of a similar character has been going on for several weeks in the Immense excavation for the Meier inches, second story 8 feet 4 inches, and a full basement, 7 feet deep. The first story can be furnished In birch or white oak; second story In pine to paint. Birch floors, are used through out first and second stories. Mr. Saxton will furnish one complete set of plans and specifications for $26. The plan will be complete In every de tail.

A hoisting engine, set high on timbers by J. C. Cook Co. has been raising dirt to the level of the sidewalk, where it is me chanically dumped into wagons. This additional excavation la for the sub basement, which will be nearly 30 feet below the street level. On the ground are a great number of black iron bar rels,- which contain waterproof mate rial. These will be used to protect the basements against the possible en croachment of the waters of the river or subterranean streams. The Irwln-Hodson Company will soon be established in a two-story brick building, 100x100 feet, with a full basement, at the southwest corner of Fifteenth and Glisan streets. - It will cost about $35,000, according to the estimate of Architect W. C. Knigh ton, who has prepared the plans. The printing firm has secured a loyear lease on the property from the new owners, Lipman, Wolfe & Co., who pur chased the site from George F. 'Thomp son, the trustee, for $25,000. The steel columns for the first atory of the Y. M. C. A. building have been placed undeh the supervision of Archi tects MacNaughton, Raymond & Law rence.
