Thia building, to«», is to be built higher Two additional stories w ill be constructed and plans are now- being considered. T. L Orenougb, a Montana capitalist w ho is president of the United Railway s, accompanied by W. D. Hoflus and M. Thomsen, of Seattle, who have large interest in the now interurban line, are in the city to arrange the contra«!t for the contemplated improvement to the Chandler of Commerce building. • We have not decided yet what Hie materials will lie fo<* the additional I tW (» stories,” said Mr. Thomsen yesterday. •‘ We are here to arrange for the addi tion of two floors to the building. The contract has not yet been let and details remain to l»e worked out. ” You umy sav for me that Hill ba n » interest in our road, despite uli rumors to the contrary.

Just n«»w we aie busy getting through this hill out north of town where the line turns away*from Holbrook. We will not touch Hillsboro but will go wide of that point, running w ithin six miles of tiie city.” Mr Thomsen does not anticipate op |»osition from thr (’ity Council in starting i | h ration of the new lice, although the franchise contained the pro\ iso that it must be completed to Hillsboro before it could be op rated within the citj Inuits. Il is believe«! that the road lu Holbrook will l»e as satisfactory to the Council as one l<» HillslNtro, showing that the line in an interurban one slid is not intended as a city trolley system.

At some of the sites being laid not for beach resorts the enterprising own ers intend to take the material du« from i he channels and flump it along I he shore line extending into the bay. 1 »• till’* manner they add to their possessions, utilizing the filled in lots tor building purposes. It is said that hundreds of new lots will be built from the bay by this means Much of the property has already been disposed of at a high figure and the demand looks ns though it might exceed the supply. In the early Spring a building boom is expected. Though two steamers are in regular service between Portland and Tillamook it is claimed that it will lie impossible for them to handle the crowds which will Hock there the coming season. \\ hen a railroad from Portland taps that territory the prediction is made ihat it will forge ahead at an astonish ing rate. At the same time the men in charge of the navigation companies are of the opinion that traffic by the watel route will be trebled Such a result is anticipated from the fact that the rail road will cause greater development and create much new business which can be handled to better advantage bv the steamer lines. Besides, it is pointed out that many people will avail themselves of the opportunity to take the short s* a trip. So far the only freight coming out of Tillamook consists of farm produce such as butter, eggs ami cheese. The Elmore brought ab mt 25 tons this trip for dis tribution entirely among local merch ants. With a little <flbrt it is said that an extensive market in Eastern Oregon and Washington could be built up for the produce. When that has been done it is contended that the traffic would reach such proportions ns to make it necessary for other steamers to be plac ed on the route.
