CONTRACTS ARE CANCELED Fmp?oyfrs V1k Formerly Paid $1.95 for Each SI 00 of Payroll Now Are Taxed $8 Ilatcs Still Below Other Ports. Contracts held by Portland Steve- dors with foreign shipowners for dls rpariimr their vessels In Portland and points on the Columbia River are t Ins; cancelled by the stevedores as a result of a tariff sheet Issued by the rhamlr of Commerce, which provides for an Increase of the rates for dls Parsing, but they are below figures recommer J'd by the stevedores, who favored an advance that would still make the tariff 10 per cent below that In mint at San Francisco and lower grnsrally than on Puget bound. Tlrnrosentatlves of Brown A Mc Csbe and the MrCabe Company will meet within a few ilays to decide whether they will abide by the action of the Chamber In permitting the load lrr tariff to remain unchanged or In slst on an increase of at least t cents a ton on alt commodities. In which event it Is not Improbable that the onions will be Influenced to demand a higher wage scale. Insurance Is, Quadrupled. TVe stevedores recite that their ac- tlon Is based on the additional expense entailed by the passace of the liability act. Increasing the Irani liability of em ployers toward Injured employes and others, which became effective Decem ber 3. and the llabllitv Insurance of stevedoring firms has been Increased more than 300 per cent. Where the rate was ti ts on each lion on the payroll In the past. It Is now IS. The snnual payroll for stevedoring on the Portland waterfront, based on last year's expense, was approximately CO0.O0O and on that basis the liability Insurance premium is llt.000. The pol icies cover Injuries to men while they are artually engaged In loading or dis charging vessels, hut 1o not apply when men are Injured during the meal hour or when bound to and from their place of employment. They must be actually at work when hurt or the policy does not protect the employer. The new scale of rates provides a charge of 4t rents a Ion for discharg es ballast, the basis being Zitn pounds net. while the old rate was 3?Vi cents and the stevedores recommended 45 cents. Cement. pounds to the Ion. Is the same, as Is eonl. but the old rate waa ITS cents and the stevedores wanted 114. while on ruget Sound It is 4S cents and at San Francisco the same rate sppltes to coal, cement and ballast. ;cneral merchandise Is 44 rents, against the old rate of li. and 41 S cents was recommended. Pis; Iron Is i cents Instead of 40 cents, and 47", cents was recommended. Ilrlcks and tiling are to be discharged for 0 rents, the former tariff, but the steve dores asked 70 cents because the Puget Sound rate Is $9 cents. The coke rate Is raised from 7ft to SO cents, as de sired. Window and plate glass are dis charged f 'r (0 cents, against ti rents on Puget und. and for angle Irons 75 cents Is the tariff, though 8i cents was recommended and cents Is the rate In the north. For structural Iron the tariff was Increased from ti ls a ton to 11.75. which Is the same as In the north. tiraln Cliargr Increased. The increase proposed on loading tar iffs will add i cents to wheal In small ks. whli-h Is lomled for 30 rents, and large sacks for 37 S cents and half sa k of flour are the same, with 40 cents chsrired for quarter sacks. 30 cents for barley and to rents for bran and oats. Lumber, timber and pile rates are In accordance with the con dition of the vessel and 10 cents a ton additional Is charged for discharging cargo on barges or cars or Into hoppers, excepting structural and ranroad Iron, whim takes a rate of 'a cents extra and the hauling of barges or steam hoists Is charced to the vessel. In setting forth the new tariff the Chamber of Commerce has Included a proviso fiat It can be changed without notice. There are Included In the tariff slteet the charges anil regulations of tr-e Port of Portland drydock. pilotage and towage service and probable ex penses Incurred In lining vessels and securing s.iilors. While admitting that the Chamber has not erred In setting forth the Port of Portland Commis sion's tariffs, the stevedores have raised te question na to the authority or Jurisdiction of the chamber to es tablish cargo rstrs. They point out nat when the longshoremen insisted on additional wajca for hatrhtenders and wlnchmen on the Columbia, though the workers were members of the Port land organisations, the Chamber was powerless to enforce the terms of the contract. In which It stood as sponser. end that the body hss no ground on which to enforce the new cargo tariffs. Regsrdtng the proposed Increase In loading charges. It Is said the export ing firms are not a unit in opposing It. but the stevedores Insist that they are justified In the move to offset the ex tra Insur.vrce demanded. Another feature, developed yesterday, may result in an Increase of 70 per cent In tile charges for loading lumter. w M.-h now range from ll.-S to S1.3T. for rch l" feet. There la r.o fixed charge fcr that work because the ron dtfions of vessels differ wlta regard to stowage. HKincE snn M:ni.Y iove lllatlng for Sct-ind Foundation Al ready Finished.

Except at sea. or In the river between municipalities, the officers have little opportunity to become proficient in the use of revolvers, but most of them feel that at close range they could steer the missiles dead ahead with suf ficient accuracy to collide with the robbers anatomy.

Andrew Massin's Alleged Relations With Prisoner's Wife Have Been tireatlj- Exaggerated, It Is Said. Determined to hsve full Justice for the murder of tlielr countryman. Andrew Massin. members of the Italian colony collected s. fund and employed Attorney H. C. Kins; l special coun sel to ssstst the prosecution of George Chamberlain. who. It I charsred, stabbed and killed llassln In Mrs. Chamberlain's bedroom, Wednesday nlRht. Contributors to the fund say Massin whose true name was Messina, was a 19-year-old youth, of excellent reputa tion, and that his relations with Mrs. Chamberlain have been exaggerated. Massln's revolver, which will prob ably play, a large part In the trial. was found with the body, and Chamber lain declares it mas leveled at him by Massin when ha entered the bedroom. Mrs. Chamberlain, however, says it was so darlc In the room she could see no wesuons In the hands of either man and did not Know Atassin had been stabbed until she learned he was lying dead outside her house. Massln's friends advance the theory that the revolver was placed beside Massin after he fell, but this is deemed Improbable because tiie man was seen bv -neighbors almost as soon as he fell, and was not unobserved at any time afterward. Mrs. Chamberlain told the District Attorney she knew Massin carried a revolver and mat ne naa snowed the weapon to her. Arraignment of Chamberlain, booked for yesterday morning In Municipal Court, was again postponed until this morning. Meanwhile, the matter has been taken up direct by the grand Jury.

The Kit sap, which was rammed and sunk, has not been located, but 'as she Is cov ered bv at least 200 feet of water there is small likelihood an attempt will be made to raise her. Divers can not work deeper than 90 feet. RELEASE IS PRDJESTED rROSECCTOR DISAVOWS BLAME IF MURDER FOLLOWS. Justice Bell Thinks He Knows Men and Discharges Janitor Who Threatened Wife. "If murder follows this verdict of the court. I wish it distinctly under stood that the blood shall not be upon the head of the District Attorney," said Deputy District Attorney Hennessy In Justice Bell's court yesterday after noon, protesting against the release of Elmer Callahan, charged with threat ening to kill his wife. "Only a few weeks ago, Your Honor, William Hass Ing made protestations like these be fore Judge Taiwell and was released, and within two weeks he had slain his wife. In that case, the court listened to the pleas of the wife herself, but there is no wife- pleading in this. If this man goes free, I am not respon sible for his future acts." "I think I know men," responded Justice Bell, "and I am not afraid to take the responsibility of letting this one go at large." Callahan was Janitor at the Stanley Apartments, at King and Washington streets. About a week ago he found his wife sitting in the lap of a man named Cass, and went for his revolver, with the declared Intention of shooting the Intruder. When he returned the man was gone, but he used the weapon to frighten the woman and was ar rested. The protest of Hennessy was Inspired by the murder of Edith Hasslng by her husband, a few weeks ago, shortly after his release In Municipal Court on a charge of threatening to kill. Judge Taiwell, granting the release upon the promises of Hasslng and the pleas of the lniured wife, was severely criti cised afterward by the Woman's Club. Though defending his action in me rase, he announced that in the future such threats would be closely scruti nized and that the threatener would be held If the facts in any way war ranted it. Callahan, who itxras said, had made former threats to his wife, showed con trition, and with his right hand raised, promised the Judge that he would keep away from all temptatton to harm the woman. Ho even refused lo accept back the revolver which had been taken from him by Constable Wagner. CONCERTS WILL BE GIVEN Music-Lovers Hall Joyously Popular Sunday Afternoon Treat.
