tttt: TvrrmxrvCr OREGON! AN. WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 1911. RATE TO NEW YORK BY WATER HIGHER Minimum Tariff of 50 Cents Increased 21-2 Cents, Be coming Effective Soon. CIRCULAR GIVES NOTICE California & Astoria Stcanulilp Com pany .drlr Shipper That Philadelphia 1 No longer Port of Origin. Formal notice of the advance of IS rents on earn 100 pounds of cargo con signed to Portland from the Atlantic side that In c arried at present for 60 cents a the minimum tariff, mill be mailed today from the office of the California Atlantic Steamship Company to shlp peni In this territory. The new rate iifromri effective January IS and meana that In the future the lowest charge Kill be S2i cents. A circular complied yesterday cov-ertna- the raise la as follows: Pla advt-e that, effective January IS. the followlnf change, to wmbnuni rate, will ba made by th Hanaroa Railroad icmpany : Present Minimum Minimum. Effective. Portland I Pust Sian4 jKirf. - This means that where rates low.r than he new minimum have been quoted, they will be lnrreaMl to the new minimum. Ab sorption of Interior charge. Into New York win be affected In most instances, and wa particularly request that before routine ship ments, rates quoted In the past be con firmed by this office. V. are also notified by the Panama Rail road Company that they have discontinued '.hair Philadelphia service and will have ne .urther sailing's from that port. Tariffs above the former minimum are not altered by the Increase, but there will be a change in the amount absorbed on Interior rate, as the com pany has absorbed 20 cents on shlp menta originating away from New York and after January 15 but ITS renta will be absorbed. Only west bound tariffs are concerned In the new quotations, but as the chancre follows the action of the Oovernment In elim inating the Panama-Philadelphia steamship service and all carno for merly originating In the vicinity of the latter point must be shipped to New York, It works a double hardship on Portland consignees. Limited facilities on the rail line ex tending across the Isthmus, coupled with the Inability of the steamship lines to obtain additional vessels with which to handle business available, are causing lumbermen deep concern. It la estimated- that there remains 2.000. 0 feet of lumber at Portland mills ready for shipment via the Isthmus and half as much la on Grays Harbor, hut there Is little prospect of moving It soon. Another objectionable fea ture Is that the Government will not accept material In excess of 35 feet In length on the rail line. NAVY MEN TO ORGANIZE CLUB Meeting Called. Friday of Those Who Have Seen Service. former members of the I'nlted States Navy residing In Portland and vicinity will gather Friday evening at 7:30 o'clock at the headquarters of the Navy recruiting station for this dis trict, room IIS Railway Kxchange balldlng. to organise an ex-man 'o war club.

MONARCH'S CRKW HAPPY NOW ti Maliama' Crowil Laughed Klrt, lienor IVep IH-jet t ion. Sarcastic wishes for a Merry Christ mas that the crew of the steamer Ock lahama yelled to those on the opposi tion towboat Monarch Saturday noon, as she passed with the British bark i-mcodtla lashed alongside, bound for Astoria, are being returned with Inter est by the Monarch's company. Later In the day the Ock lahama waa called on to leave down with the Conway Castle, and while the Monarch reached Port land on the return Sunday evening and her crowd spent Christmas here, the ;-k lahama did not arrive at Astoria until 1 o'clock Christmas morning. on all holidays steamboatmrn strive to remain In port and usually succeed, but In the towboat business It Is very uncertain, as the vessels may be on the way continuously for d lys or be held under orders so the men are preented from Joining their families. Although the .Monarch tows for the Puget Sound Tugboat Company on the river and keen competition has resulted 'between those Interests and the Port of Port land, unfriendly relations between the . rrx have not developed, but when the tv-klahania's complement saw the Mon arvli healing f.'r the long haul down stream It was felt certain that their Christmas programme was canceled. SKARI.FS ' CLOSK TO RECORD Vrliooner Sails EYom Honolulu to Sound In Thirteen Pays. T the schooner Hohert Sear!ea la civen tie distinction of having made one of the srrertcsl passages of the season from Honolulu to the Northwest Coast, as she has arrived on Puget Sound after a run of II d.i s. within one day of the record between Honolulu and the Columb:a lllver. which she made three or four days ago. The French bark St. Kogatten. which aritvrd November 2 from Kahulut. made the run to the river In 1 day which was a clip voyage, and the best done this season among vessels bound here. The schooner Crescent, a recent arrival on C;e Sound from Honolulu, is also said to hae cohered fie dis tance In about II daa. but the perform ance of the Searles had another feature tn that she sailed from Kverett No vember I. with a cargo of lumber, and was but 17 days on the run to the Islands, and good time was made dis charging. Often vessels are a month on the way to the Coast and 10 days is re garded as fair time. Marine Notes.

Or, Dec, 26. (Spe cial.) The little tots at the St, Agnes' Baby Home, near Parkplace, had a most delightful Christmas.

Hughes, traveling sales man and, so says Probation Officer White, a former clergyman, was brought to Portland from Kallspell, Mont,, by Deputy Sheriff Tally yester day to answer to an Indictment charg ing him with a statutory crime. The alleged crime is exactly similar to that on which J. B. Goddard, also a former clergyman, was convicted- In Circuit Court Saturday.

He was ar raigned before Presiding Judge Qatens yesterday and given till Friday to plead. The ofTense is alleged to have occurred on April 2 last. The face of the Indictment shows that the only witness before the grand Jury was the girl who la said to have been wronged by Hughes.
