conditions attendant upon tha money
stringency. Tha enormoua gains In caah
made bf tha New Tonk banka for the
, past three weeks, which promises to put
the reserve well above tne required lum
within 4 ahort time, marka tha final
' TL.in nf tha rich man a panic. Lo
cally, the resumption of caah payments
by the banka over iwo wtrm au
out tha least sign of anything outside
of the usual banning- ana commercial
routine, reassured the few skeptical and
timid aoula who naroored soma raii
- lugs aa to tne ultimata outcome.
, msalaeaoa Sites la Demand,
' It la not difficult to classify tha prop
niM ihtt in moat sought in Portland
at this .time. .. Practically . all of tho
holdings that are now changing hand
here are reaidence altea and favorably
situated acreage tracta. Everybody with
" money, no matter how amall a sum,
just so It la enough to make tha flrt
payment on a cottage or a building lot,
seems to have determined to acquire
a home, and thereby eliminate the land
lord quantity. Mechanics with good
saiarlea and even laboring men drawing
ordinary day-laborers' wages, who have
laid by a few hundred dollars in the
paat two or three , years are buying
' Jiomes and noma altaa In the suburban
districts. -
It Is this general movement, bo wide
ly noted-, that ia believed to be largely
instrumental In building op the banka'
reserves. , Several million dollar wero
withdrawn from Portland banka between
July and November of last year, much
of which Is finding lis way back into
the banka by meana of the large num
ber of amall real estate purchasea now
being made.
' As an illustration of this, a Stark
street broker made a aale of a $2,000
suburban bouse and lot last week on
which the caah payment waa 11,000.
When the deal was ready to be closed.
r tha purchaser produced the money in
the form of currency which he said be
bad carried on his person since lait
September, when It waa withdrawn from
a bank. Formerly, aaid thla broker,
nearly all of our sales were closed up
by meana of a bank check, while now.
In a majority of the sales, the pur
. chaser produces tha caah.
Look for Znvsstmsnts. .
"Money- la coming out of every kind
or old place," aald another dealer. "The
, iieople are becoming tired of paying j
rent on safe deposit boxea, or of taking
tha chance of a visit from a burglar.
and are naturally turning to real es
tate as a reasonably safe Investment.
, One man came to my office last week
and drew 13.000 from his pocket which
he said he wanted to Invest in Income
bearing property."'
No considerable activity' In business
property Is looked for Immediately. A
necessary prerequisite to ' a general
movement In this class of holdings is
an easy money market The banks
bava got to loosen up before very large
tranaactiona can be made, and they are
not ready as yet to finance large realty
deals.
Another factor In the local situation
that' will have a svrong tendency to
hold down to the minimum trading In
Portland business property. Is the fact
that so large a portion of the business
district here Is held by large estates
and wealthy residents who are, very
much averse to parting with their holU-

Half a dozen estates and as many
more Individuals can be named who
control more than half the area of the
present wholesale and retail business
districts , of this city.
Realty brokers, like other classes of
business men are easily spoiled by good
times. Now and then you will hear an
agent say that the market ia dull, whaq
, as a matter of fact the daily volume
of transfers filed for record shows a
healthy and fairly active condition. The
. trouble with those dealera pesslmlstl-
cally Inclined la, that for nearly two
years they had everything their own
: way, ana tney imagined tnai tne real
estate business would always be a pic
nic. They expected too much, and when

the usual amount of hustling and ener
, py, they blamed the market instead of
-themselves. For -the most part, how
ever, Portland real estate agents are
optimistic, both as to the present and
future "They all enjoyed a rich har
vest for many months, and when the
' October reaction set in, they didn't com
. plain, many of them expressing them
' elves as willing to take a rest after
, av long period of feverish activity.
; Xetnrn of Normal Conditions.
But this partial rest 'will not be for
long. Already there are signs of a re
turn of the prosperous days of a year
ago. Many thousands of workmen aro
being put to work in the large manu
facturing plants of the east; over 100
hlngle mills on Puget sound will start
up i February 3, after a shutdown of
Ihree months; several Portland sawmills
re again running night and day
shifts, and a telegram from southern
California says that thousands Of Jap
anese laborers have recently been dis
charged in that state and their places
given to white men. This can have but
one meaning and that is, that the coun
try is returning lo ine nigniy prosper
ous times of 180C and 1907.
It Is expected that former Congress
man Powers- of "Massachusetts will be
Intrusted with the management of the
Taft campaign In New England.
Charles K. Henry, who has Just re-
tnrned from his annual outing in
southern California, comes back con-
inced that there ia nothing In the land
of "oranges and sunshine" that tends
to make an Oregonian, regret his place
of residence. Mr. Henry found the en
tire southern country suffering rather
more severely than Portland from the
'effects of the October panic.
"My trip to southern California dis
closed the fact that business conditions
In that section of the pacific coast
were materially affected by the mone
tary troubles or tne last three monms
or last year, saia Mr. jienry 10 a
Journal representative. "Los Angeles
and other cities extending on down to
San Diego have felt the stress of the
times very greatly. woiwiinsianaing
the fact that Los Angeles has built a
treat 'cirr.-wlth the finest of -electric
car transportation, times are very hard
and competition extremely keen as
compared with the same month of 1907.
Competition Xa Killing.
"When one knows that there are 90
Jewelry stores in the city of Los An
geles witn i nanxa ana if. trust com
panies, alt paying rentals on ground
valuations of from 13,000 to $7,000 a
front foot ono can readily sea how
keen competition must be, and how
blighting on business it must be when
the tourist crop is - lessened to about
two fifths of the annual visitors. In
addition to which, they are confronted
with an extremely dry season, having
but 3.86 Inches of rain up to January
2. - ' . '
. "A- noticeable feature In Los Angeles
is the fact that nearly all the choice
corners are secured and occupied by
banka, and not as in Portland where
they are chiefly secured as saloons and
cigar stores. It seems that saloons In
Los Angeles are limited to 200, conse
quently, there is not such, competition
for corners.
. . Street .Oar. Judgments.
"They have a magnlflcent system of
street car service, and they go like the
mischief. People are taught to . move
out of the streets and, do their visiting
on the r sidewalks- or get hurt. The
papers there publish a statement ' that
the street ; cars have killed during the
last forty-nine months 222 people and
177 people l.ave been wounded.
"A viBit to Venice, Long Beach,
Naples and other seaside resorts show
a great decrease In business and pro-
ferty values at ' those respective places,
t will certainly take- two- or three years
for that section of California to recover
from the depression caused by the
panic of October.
"Kan Diego seems to oe noidlng its
own a little better, but it is bad enough
at that place. An Oregonlan's attention
is attracted, when In San Diego, to
their plaza blocks, around which they
have such, beautiful palms, at each of
which there is a scooped-out portion of
tne ground so mat water win De re
tained, as applied to tha palms, but the
rest of the plaza is air bare, dry and
swept as floors: not a blade of grass to
be seen anywhere, a vast contrast to
the beautiful trees and green hills
around Portland.

The largest sale reported during the

the purchase by Louis Burke from J. E.

SAFETYDEPOSIT VAULTS
The owners of the new Board . of
Trade building, Joseph M. Healy and
Gay Lombard, have commissioned Arch
itect D. C. Lewis to prepare plans for
a reenforced concrete safety deposit
vault, in two compartments to be in
stalled in the basement and first flool
"of the big building at Fourth and Oak
streets. The vault to be built In the
basement will bo. specially designed for
the storing of bulky valuables, such as
silverware,: oil paintings, etc., while the
one on the lirst floor, directly . above
the basement vault will contain 6,000
small steel' boxes . for the - storing of
money, jewels and valuable papers.
The entrance to the -vaults will be
on Fourth street, by the door nearest
the Chamber' of Commerce' building. It
Is probable that at first only 3,000 steel
boxes will. be. installed, the other to
be put in as 'the necessity Arises..'
These vaults, . together with the one
to be built in the Commercial club
building, will, it is thought, supply all
the additional .safety, deposit . facilities
required in Portland for some years to

Amphitheatre When Completed Will

College Athletics Structnre Rises
as High as Colosseum in Rome.
A reenforced concrete, stadium has
Just been completed on the campus of
the Syracuse university, which Is said
to be the finest athletic field owned by
any university in the world.
In the current number of Cement Age
occurs the following full description of
both the university .campus and stadium:
"The campus of Syracuse university
consists of about 100 acres. Fourteen
acres are finely laid out in a park of
great beauty with drives, lawns and rus
tic bridge. The main portion of the
campus Is the site of 1( college build
ings. It is located in the southeastern
part of the city, on the highlands over
looking the city and Onondaga lake.
The land Is Quite uneven, the greatest
irregularity being a hill in one corner
of considerable elevation, which the
t-tudenta call Mount Olympus. There Is
a corresponding depression in the center,
in .which the recently completed re
enforced concrete stadium Is situated
"Ihe stadium is more elllotlcal than
the Greek and the Roman stadia, but
is not Quite an amphitheatre. For soma
distance the sides. are a straight line.
It is really an amtihltheatrlral stadium.
It Is well adapted to athletic contests,
having a good 220-yard stratght-away.
a cinder track and a field. There are IS
rows of seats and a grandstand. The
circle of seats is interrupted at the west
end by a stately entrance, and the lower
rows at either end of the grandstand by
the necessities of the running track.
The' outer measurement of this great
structure is 670 by 476 feet It covers
six and one third acres of ground. It
seats 20,000 persona With Improvised
seats it will accommodate double, that
number. The grandstand seats S.000.
The completed structure will cost S 400,-
000. . The great gymnasium adjoining,
whose foundations ore now in. will cost
about as much more. This will be the
largest college gymnasium in the United
States. There Is no other building, in
Syracuse that excites the interest of
citlr.en and stranger alike as does the
stadium.
"It is alone in its class, the stadium
at Cambridge being quite different In
its construction. It is somewhat larger
than the Colosseum at Rome, but not
quite so wide in the outside measure
ment It probably covers a trifle larger
area. As the Colosseum rises 169 feet
In the -air with four-tiers of seats, it is
not surprising -that its arena Is much
smaller than that of the stadium, for
282- by 177 feet measures the arena of
the Colosseum, while the stadium is
6S5 by 339 feet. But the Colosseum
would neat nearly 60.000 and was a true
ampliithe&trc. 'The University stadium
is' larger and wider than the Greek sta
dia, which were not, however, uniform
in size, nor is one end cut off square as in
tho latter. The Romans often modified
these features, especially in rounding
both ends so as to make the stadia re
semble the amphitheatre, and this 1907
specimen copies the Roman shape."-
