Houm of
On of the moat Important realty
deals of the week was the leasing of
the northwest corner of Fourth and
'Washington streets, owned by Mrs. John
M. Oearln, by Rothschild Bros., and
Aha announcement that thla corner Is
I to be Improved. While no details of
the deal have been published. It Is un
derstood that the lease Is for a little
tmore than 20 years, and It Is reported
that the rental ,1s fixed at 6 per cent on
n Investment Of 1250,000. This sounds
raher high, for It will be recalled that
last week Charles Sweeny purchased
the Dekum building annex, building
and all. .tor 1165.000, but taking the
leas of Inburth .and Washington on a
. -basts of a 1250,000 valuation It Is not
so bad, when it is recalled that the
lease Is to run for St years and un
doubtedly, with the way that Port
land Is growing, the ground will be
worth that much In the next 16 years.
Of equal Interest with the Oeartn
ftothschild deal was the announcement
made yesterday of the contract lease
of the corner of Fourth and Oak streets
for the Board of Trade building, and
also s new building for the Corbett es
tate at Fifth and Ankeny streets. There
has also been a report current for some
time that the Corbett estate would. Im
prove the northwest corner of Flftn and
" Alder streets, but It Is understood that
the plana for Improving that corner are
Jn about the same shape aa they were
veral months ago, when it was re-
rted the estate bad In mind the erec
tion of a modern building at that point.
out there are said to be several questions
to be settled with nrosnctlvs tenants
. before anything takes definite shape.

woth other leases for Washington street
property. The Oregon Trust a Saving
bank, it will be recalled, leased the
quarter It now occupies at Sixth and
Washington streeta at a rate that shows
a return of t per cent on a valuation of
1160.000. This covere only a part of the
building, the owners have the balance
at corresponding rates, and taken alto
gether' the returns from the Sixth end
Washington streets property will ne
doubt figure considerably above the
valuation plaoad en th Fourth and
Washington oorner. With a modern
bunding on the oorner of Fourth and
Washington streets there is no doubt
but what a satisfactory return can be
secured on a ground rental figured on
a basis of liiO.OOO. and a building whloh
will probably oost lioo.ooo additional.

property, there ha been little move
ment In down-town real estate, although

mads good progress and It I admitted
by both sides that the case will go to
ths Jury not lator than Wednesday
night. There Is a growing oonvtotlon
that Brouwer will hot be convicted
The chief testimony today was that of
Dr. Marshall, the expert for the defense,
who testified that arsenic found on the
Bead woman's brain came from the em
balming fluid. It had been proved by
the prosecution that the potaon waa
found at the autopsy and Dr. Washing
ton, for the state, had sworn that the
woman died In convulsions that oould
not have been produced by any agenoy
exoept arsenio or strychnine.
When Dr. Marshall .was called today
be was asked concerning the amount of
arsenic found in Mrs. Brouwer's brain,
and said It waa proportionately great.
"What would the amount of arsenic
in the brain Indicate to your'
That the poison entered body after
death in embalming."
If It were administered during life
an almost Infinitely small smount
would reach the brain. If administered
after death, the fluid being Injected Into
th braolal arteries, would carry the
poison dlreot to the brain."
The defense resorted to visual evi
dence to Impress th Jury. Dr. Mar
shall brought out a ebsrt four feet long
and highly colored, showing ths course
of the bratrai artery to the brain,
which he held up so the Jury could see
it. - j.
The very first question ssked ntm on
cross-examination brought out the fact
that the witness observed ptomslne
poisoning by watching the work of the
, molecules on himself. -
