Charters have been quiet for several days and there is little outlook for an improvement immediately. A large number of the cargoes set afloat from Portland and some of them for Febru ary loading have been sold on specu lation and the condition of the Liver pool market is such at present as to make chartering hazardous. The German ship Nordsee, which ar rived In port yesterday from Coquimbo, Is under charter to carry a cargo of wheat to Callao. This is the first cargo of the kind to be loaded at this port for a number of years. The Nordsee is In ballast and will be ready for cargo within a short time.

Mr. Richardson, representing the business interests of Kennlwick, desired to have the dredge do some work on the upper river.

ABERDEEN, Wash., Jan. 28. (Special.) An agreement has been entered into by W. B. Mack, manager of the Slade mill, and the Wler Steamship Company, of San Francisco, whereby steamers of that concern will call here for lumber.

WANTS GRANT RESTORED Begins Suit in Court to Cancel Ac tion Taken by Council In Revok ing Rights for Violation of Agreement. The conflict between the People's Market Association and the City Coun cil and Mayor Lane has been renewed by the filing in the Circuit Court of a new suit against the city. The asso ciation wishes ordinance No. 13,482, and its amendment. No. .16,289, to re main in force, and prays that the court grant an injunction restraining the city from interfering with the asso ciation in its possession of the Market block, at Market and Third streets, or with the tenants. The association also asks the court to declare illegal and inoperative a recent ordinance taking away the privileges of the association. The negotiations over the Market block date back to August 5, 1903, when the Council granted the Union Market Company the right to con struct buildings on the property and use it for general market purposes for the benefit of the public. The build ings were at first to be erected in the center of the block, but later ordinance No. 15,289 was passed, providing that they be erected on the north side. On March 21, 1906, the Council passed an ordinance giving the People's Market Association, successors to the Union company, the right to occupy the block for 25 .years. The Mayor vetoed the measure. Then Mayor Lane demanded that the Council repeal the 1903 ordinance and its amendment, the People's associa tion having, it is said, spent only $9000 on the basement and foundation at this time. Since the recent action by the Council against the association the Chief of Police has notified the tenants of the property on- the block that they must vacate.

Maegly and ex-Policeman Tlchner con spired together to defraud Mrs. Belle C, Preston of $1276.68 is the charge in a complaint filed with the Circuit Court yesterday. She alleges that last Summer she held seven warrants on the city cov ering this amount, but -that a short time before August 2 they were unlawfully transferred to the possession of Maegly and Tichner without her consent. .She said she then notified the City Treasurer that the warrants had been stolen, in structing him not to pay them. He did so. however, and she asks $100 damages in addition to. the $1276.68. Court Takes Son From Mother. Tom Severns, 18 years of age, who was arrested recently by Detective. B. F.

Herman Burkhart, a traveling sales man, was found guilty of a charge of resisting arrest, in the Municipal Court yesterday forenoon. Sentence was sus pended by .Judge Cameron.

FAVOR FIVE JUDGES Members of Bar Unanimous for Increase. - TO WORK FOR AMENDMENT Division of Opinion Is Expressed as to Advisability of Taking Power of Indictment From the District Attorney. The Multnomah County Bar Associa tion, at its meeting last night at the County Courthouse, expressed itself as unanimously in favor of an amendment to the constitution of the state,' in creasing the Judges of the" State Su preme Court from three to five. The motion to adopt a resolution favoring the increase was made by W. R. Mc- Garry. and seconded by A. P. Tlfft. A motion was made by H. King Wilson; and seconded by Oglesby Young, to appoint a committee of five, who should give this question publicity through out the state by communicating with members of the bar in the various counties. Chairman W. M. Cake ap pointed -on this committee Harrison Allen, Arthur Langguth, Ralph B. Fisher, W. R. McGarry and A. P. Tifft. Upon the question of an amendment to the present state law which would limit the power, of the District At torney to return indictments against alleged criminals and confine his power to a grand Jury, there was a difference of opinion. District Attorney Manning was present at the beginning of the meeting, and expressed himself as heartily in favor of curbing the powers of the District Attorney's office, as he thought it was too much power to be vested in one man. "Mr. Manning has been doing some good things," said Mr. Piggott, "espec ially in whipping wealthy bank offi cials into line, yet in my mind there is no question but that there Is too much power now vested in one man." "1 think the law should be repealed," said Waldemar Seton, "for even if the bank officials had come .before seven average citizens, I believe the evidence would have bc:en so overwhelming that an indictment would have been re turned." W. R. McGarry said he believed the present system a good -one, and that it was in force in Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, where it was entirely satis factory. Witnesses brought before a grand Jury, he contended, are entirely in the hands of the prosecuting attor ney. He expressed himself as not radi cally opposed to the amendment, but believed a change in the present regime should be carefully considered, "as the District Attorney usually molds the views of the grand Jury when a case is before it."
