BIG DEALS CLOSED NEAR UNION DEPOT Terminal Company Believed to Be Buying Land Adjoining Present .Yards. TAKEN OVER BY STRANGER "Mr. Bowen" Appears as Bayer of Five Quarter-Blocks and More Deals Are Under Way in Same District. According to fairly well authenticated reports, the Northern Pacific Terminal Company Is acquiring additional ground In the vicinity of the Union Station. The present site of the station circles around from Seventh street to Fifth, including the blocks bounded by Hoyt, Irving and Johnson. That the Terminal Company Is buying holdings In this district is In dicated by the fact that already three pieces have been taken over by a pur chaser as mysterious as the "Mr. Craig" who figured In the deals for the tier of blocks between Twelfth and Thir teenth streets some weeks ago. This new figure In the transaction Is "Mr. Bowen," who ptanks down the cash when he has concluded a deal. As a rule, realty transactions are consum mated with the use of certified checks, but In thi3 Instance the consideration Is covered by cither currency or cashier's checks on one of the Portland banks. Present Quarters Are Crowded. There Is every reason to believe that the. Terminal Company Is buv-tng this additional territory for the sufficient rea son that depot facilities are none too extensive for the requirements of a city the size of Portland, and from present Indications much more space will be needed If the railroads expect to handle the traffic that is sure to come with the growth of the city. The blocks that are being taken over are those between Johnson and Irving Irving and Hoyt from Sixth to Seventh! and between Irving and Hoyt from Sixth to Fourth. The acquisition of this prop erty would give the Terminal Company a square tract nearly double that now occupied by the station and approaches. A point that is mentioned in connection wtth the deals spoken of is that the Terminal Company may be taking over the ground in order to hold the key to the new bridge situation. As is well known, the railroad companies are op posed to certain plans proposed for the western approach of the new steel bridge, and by buying the land at the western end will be In a position to dictate terminals. High Prices Are Asked. There is some difference of opinion re garding values in the district referred to. Some of the owners are inclined to place an excessive price on their hold ings, and this may retard the taking over of the blocks Indefinitely. There is always a disposition on the part of owners of land to "hold up" railroad companies when it comes to selling ground, and In the present instance there may be a repetition of this plan. It is not known that the railroad company considers the purchase of this property as absolutely essential to its business re qu rements, and it may be that too high valuations will upset the whole thing Of one thing, however, there Is little doubt, and that is that at least five f.l t,nt pices have been taken over by Mr. Bowen" at prices about on a parity with recent sales made in that part o the city. As to the amount involved in this transaction as a whole, it is supposed to be in the neighborhood of tl.OOO.OOO. quar ter blocks in that district having sold recently for J65.000 and upward. The Klernan block between Hoyt and Glisan was bonded for J245.000 for a terra of years option, but it Is understood that the transaction fell through, whether on account of the figure or not is not an nounced. The pieces said to have been acquired so far are the Rosenfeld. Hart. Dooly Shorey and Parkhurst properties. and other owners iiave been approached by Mr. Bowen. $14,000 ALREADY RAISED Solicitors rr $100,000 Publicity Fund Meet With Success. As the result of the second day s can ,as" for subscriptions to the J100.000 tro nrntion fund the various soliciting com mittees In charge of that work yester day reported that sums aggregating J14 000 had Iwn secured.

Branln, a telegraph operator, is one of the patients in the Good Samaritan Hospital, where he is recovering from an attack of appendicitis. Mr. Branln was subjected to an operation on Tuesday and since that time Is reported-as being in good condition. Mrs. .Isaac A. Manning, wife of the American Consul at Cartagena. Colom bia, left that place on February 17, ac companied by her daughter, Ruth, for New Orleans and Southern California. Mrs. Manning and Miss Ruth will visit friends and relatives in Los Angeles, Riverside, Palo Alto and San Francisco until In May, when they will come on to Salem and Portland. They expected Consul Manning to Join them in Oregon in May, but his promotion to La Guayra, Venezuela, where consular relations have been interrupted for some months, will probably prevent his securing a vacation this year. Consul Manning expects to leave Cartagena for his new post soon after April 1. CHICAGO, March 25. (Special. Port land people at Chicago hotels: Brevoort, 1. A. Meyer; Sherman House. C. C. Conckey, J.
