of matting for Eastern shipment and also
two carloads ot Chinese merchandise for
transfer to the railroads. 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. ,

the last few years. 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

& Frank Company's ten-story addition
at Sixth and Alder streets. 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
