HIT BY WEATHER
Some Good-Sized Deals Made
Despite Conditions, and
Inquiry Is Active.
3!G TRANSFERS PENDING
flirting Over Valuable Inside Prop
erty Going On, hat Clotting of
Transfers I Being Held Over
From Week to Week.
"Too much weather." was the verdict
of a majority of real estate dealers
last week, but despite the cold rains
considerable activity prevailed and a
number of sis-ible drals were made.
Three corners In the West Side residence
district were sold at prices ranging from
$16,000 to I-0.00O. and there were some
rood-sized deals on the East Side. Trad
ing was principally In home property
end acreage tracts, and the majority of
the transfers were east of the Willam
ette, lnqutry u active.
There Is considerable flirting gnlng
en between owners and would-be buy
ers over some choice Inside property. A
number of deals .of this kind hare been
pending for werks, but In every case a
disagreement as to price or a hitch at
the last moment prevented the trans
fer. Keasey. JIumason Jeffery. as agents
fnr the Lewis Investment Company, on
Friday sold to Samuel Rosenblatt the
southeast comer of Twenty-second and
Pettygrove streets for KO.OOO. The ouy
er will move four modern houses to the
ground. The property consists of lots
It. 1 and IT. block IS?. Couch's Addi
tion. It has 150 feet frontage on Twenty-second
street and loo feet on Petty-
grove, with trackage on the United
Rati wars Line, which makes It future
warehouse property.
The most Important deal of the week
was that consummated yesterday by
Charles Rlngler tc Co, of JO" Lewis
building. It Involved the transfer of
the two-story brl. It building at 14 and
Is Front street, owned by ' George
t-tengrr. to the Kendall Heating Com
pany, for $21,000. As soon as the leases
expire, which will be In about one
year, the purchaser will occupy the
building with Its business.
A report last week that the Port
land r-oclal Turn Verein was about to
sell Its property at the northeast cor
ner of Fourth and Yamhill streets was
denied by officers of the society. Tho
report probably arone from the decision
at a recent meeting of the society to
obtain a sultab'e site and build a new
gymnasium. The quarters at Fourth
and Yamhill are crowded and the mem
bership la growing. The property has
feet frontage on Fourth street and
100 feet on Yamhill. The Turn Verein
last year refused an offer of flOO.OOO
for the lot. and the members believe
that they can realize a fine profit for
the organization by holding for a few
years longer. The Turn Verein Is main
tained by nominal dues on Its member
ship which numbers about 300, and by
the rents from Its building.
Another apartment house on Kleventh
street Is being planned and probably
will be erected In the near future at
the northeast corner of Mill. The cor
ner, which la by 7 feet, was pur
chased last week by Minnie M. I-ee
for tlt.000 from I. K. Johnson, who
bought It only the week before from
Morris Msrks for 117.000. The deal
was conducted by M. E. Lee, giving
Mr. Johnson a profit of f 1000 In a week.
The Improvement planned In to be a
four-story brick apartment house, and
the ground floor probably will be de
voted to stores.
Buslnes Is good throughout the
East." ald 3. I. Vincent, of S. I. Vin
cent 4 Co.. yesterday. "Things are
actually lively, money Is freer and In
terest rates lower than only a few
months ago. and conditions everywhere
show an improvement.
Mr. Vincent returned last week from
- a six weeks' trip, having spent most
of his time In Chicago and Detroit.
He spent the holidays with his par
ents In Lapeer. Mich.
"I am satisfied with the outlook."
he continued, "and I am prepared to
go ahead with some matters that I
have had la mind, one of the objects
of my trip was to find out how East
ern moneyed men regard the situation,
and 1 learned that all are optimistic.
"There has been a widespread sus
picion of the West among financial
men. They have been watting for
something to happen, as they were In
clined to think some of our prosperity
artificial. Since nothing happened they
are generally ready to admit that we
are. on a sound basis, although confi
dence expressed In Portland does not
extend to all Pacific Coast cities. I
talked with bankers, business men and
realty operators.
"By comparison with Detroit. I am
Inclined to believe realty prices In Port
land are high. Detroit Is about twice
as large as Portland and property there
Is all-out the same price as here. The
best retail realty In Detroit can be
had for tSOOO a front foot, and while
no sales have been made In Portland
at that figure. I am Inclined to be
Jleve It would take that much to buy
our best property. Judging from the
esteem In which owner hold It. Resi
dence lots are about the same as here,
only at Detroit they go much farther
from the center of the city to build.
"I heard a great deal of talk about
Portland and Oregon, and personally
met three men who were preparing to
move to this city with their families
In a few weeks."

EAST SIDE TO PAVE
Twelve Miles to Be Improved
at Cost of $1,000,000.
TERRITORY IS VALUABLE
District Embraces Area Between
Hawthorne Avenue, East Burn
side, Grand Avenue and East'
Twentieth Streets.
A movement has been started to form
a hard-surface improvement district on
the East Side between Hawthorne ave
nue and East Burnslde street. Grand
avenue and East Twentieth streets, and
have the improvement made as soon as
possible. The cost of the pavement of
the streets in this district is estimated
from $1,000,000 to 1. 600,000.
In the district there are 225 full
blocks, and there will be close to 15
miles of streets to pave, but there must
be deducted streets that have been
paved and others that are under con
tract to be paved this year, which re
duces the real mileage to about 12
miles.
The streets under contract are East
Ankeny between Union avenue and East
Twenty-eighth; East Washington from
East Water to Grand avenue, and from
East Eighth to East Twelfth; East
Sixth street between Division and East
Burnslde; and several other short con
tracts. East Morrison has been paved be
tween East Twentieth street and Grand
avenue, and Belmont has been paved
from East Ninth street, and petitions
have been signed for a pavement to
East Water street-
Valne of Property High.
The question is raised as to whether
the property in the district will stand
tbe cost of the pavements, which may
average $200 and $800 a lot, including
sidewalks. There are no lots in the
district that can be bought for less than
I $2000. Probably the cheapest desirable
I lots in the district are not under $3000,
and the average is from $3000 to $20,000
on Grand avenue.
Virtually all the streets in the dis
trict were Improved several years ago
with gravel or macadam, but as a rule,
the property in the district is not bur
dened with liens for street improve
ments. The chief question that will be raised
Is whether the property will stand to be
taxed from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000 for
pavements, and whether the benefits
will compensate for the cost.
It has been felt for the past two years
that this district ought to be improved
with hard-surface pavements, and that
the property can easily stand the cost,
when Innumerable suburban and purely
residence districts are being formed for
hard-surface.
The territory embraced is rapidly be
coming business property. Flats and
apartment-houses have been built all
through It and others are projected, and
yet the streets are generally in bad con
dition being muddy in Winter and
dusty in Summer.
It Is now felt that Central East Port
land ought to pave all these streets as
a whole. Holladay Addition and Irv
lngton district comprise a mile square
of hard-surface pavements, which serve
as an illustration that this is one of the
most valuable residence sites in the
city. The Ladd Addition, on Hawthorne
avenue, is also pointed out as an ex
ample of tho advantages of hard-surface
pavements. . All around Central
East Portland hard-surface pavements
are being laid, but the business district
property has got along so far with
cheap, gravel and macadam. There are
some who think that the territory ought
to have extended from Hawthorne ave
nue to Sullivan's Gulch, but the larger
territory was not included.
Business Men's Club to Assist.
Business men generally approve of
the extensive paving f the streets in
the district, and the East Side Business
Men's Club will co-operate with the
movement. Warner Dorres, president
of the club, said:
"We need hard-surface pavements in
Central East Portland out to East
Twentieth street, and between East
Burnslde street and Hawthorne aventie
above anything else. After one gets
off Grand avenue eastward, he finds .

nothing but mud and streets cut t
pieces, which would be a disgrace to
village, let alone a city the size of For'
land. It would be the making of th
district. I have Just been elected pre.'
ident of the East Side Business Men
Club, but I am certain that the organl
zation will co-operate with the pavln
movement, and it will be brought up a
our meeting on February 2.
"Wherever hard-surface pavement i
laid it enhances the value of propert
and In some cases it has doubled tli
value. Holladay Addition, Irvingto
and the Ladd Addition are illustration
of what first-class pavements will d
for any district where all the street
are improved that way. Money spen
in those districts has returned man
times.
"The district proposed includes most
ly business property, almost too val
liable for residences, and It is now be
ing occupied with flats and apartment
houses. To get rid of muddy street
is a movement in the right directioi
and ought to receive the support an
co-operation of every property-owne:
Hard-surface pavements will do fr
Central East Portland what the M
fills are doing for the warehouse dis
trict between Union avenue and th
river. It ought to be done as a wholi
so we shall have the entire dlstrir
paved and not have a few streets her
and there."
"I understand that the Hawthorne ep
tate will fill up the ravine in the Haw
thorne Park tract, and then pave a:
tho streets, and there will be no oppo
sitlon from that source."
Others Favor Pavements.
Henry Meyer, who owns property orj
East Twelfth street, said: J
"I am in favor of paving an tf
streets, but I am not in favor of tylrl j
up a lot of streets with contractors ar)
then permitting the paving companifcj
to hold up the work for several yeaf J
tr, come. We intend to have Eael
Washington street paved between Eas
Eighth and East Tweirtn streets,
won't oppose the pavement movement i
th neniile want It."
T. J. Gelsler said: "The distric
ought to include the territory betwee
Division street and Sullivan's Gulch an
East Twenty-eighth street. It will pe
the property owners to have the stree i
paved."
The movement that has been startr
for pavements in the district is und
.-"will., (i-iti thA C.lt-v Council, an
the contracts are to be divided betwee i
the paving companies, uutsiae or tni
