The sum was to be fixed by a gentleman namd by both (he contestant , The arbiter decided thai $7.60 would cover the matter and Marlda was taxed the costs, an equal sum. Meantime, however, the police court warrant stood against him, and for a time it seemed Marlda would be compelled to appear before Judge An derson. However, when the police judge learned of the justice's court set tlement he turned Marlda loose. The police court while a city institution, has equally as great functions as the justice's court and could try cases which might more property come be fore the justice's court The Portland Chamber of Commerce yesterday acted with vigor regarding the hung-up Improvement of the lower Columbia, liver and the bar, and through Secretary Daniel Connell the following telegram was sent to Sen ators Mitchell and Fulton at the national- capital: "In view of the im portant necessity of commerce In re gard to the lower river and bar, the suggestion is made that you see that an appropriation Is provided for in the emergency bill." The time for payment of taxes under the 3 per cent rebate arrangement ex pired at 6 last night and, while the roll will still be open to taxpayers un til the date on which taxes will become delinquent, property owners will not be entitled to the rebate. The amount collected to date Is relatively below that collected up to March IS last year.

Not only will the gamb lers be arrested and brought before the courts of justice on charges of violating the law, but It Is said the scope of the grand Jury's power will encompass those who own property upon which Portland's numerous gam bling resorts are operated. Whispers of what the grand jury is doing are heard upon every . side, and the fact that during the last week a number of antl-gambllng men were summoned before the grand Jury for the evident purpose or being examined upon ints subject has served to . lend color to the story.

It ia probable the case will go to the jury ttls afternoon. The case of Held, Mur dock & Co. vs. the Alaska Fishermen's Packing Company, a suit for damages, was set for yesterday, but as the Orim berg case was not concluded, the Reld, Murdock case went over. It will be tried as soon as the present case is out of the way. The Portland primary election takes place today. Both the Simon and Mitchell factions have made every preparation for the battle of ballots and the contest promises to be the warmest ever waged there. For days past all of the papers have been full of political advertising matter, which has cost the politicians a pretty penny something like $100 a column. Both oldes express confidence, but It is al most a certainty the Mltchellltes will win out During the past few days several Simon men have been down fronj the metropolis, and all conceded that the Simon facUon's chance of suc cess was rather a slim one.

Rockafellow, who was brought up from Seaside to eerve a county jail sentence for beating a boy, was before the sanity board yesterday. The man was under scrutiny for a long time, and during his interview with the commis sioners showed unmistakable signs of insanity. He told the board he was a military expert of rare genius and that he was in close touch with the war de partment. He related that he was par ticularly well posted as to the progress of events at Fort Stevens, and that he warned the officers prior to the time the recent attempt was made to de- What two words mean most to your grocer? and what do th?y mean?

His case was postponed until this morning, when Mrs. Rockafellow will be called to testify. ' The games scheduled for the three- men team tournament at the Commer cial alleys were not bowled last night, but will take place at a later date. The failure of the club's team to lift the Feldenh,elmer trophy has not discour aged the men, and the bowling com mittee will shortly issue another chain lenge. The local team's average was 42.62, which would ordinarily have cap tured the cup. The Portland team's success was due to the fine total of 209 bowled by A. Howard, chairman of the bowling committee The belief pre vailed in this city that the ' Felden- helmer contest was conducted under the regulations of the cocked-hat asso- latlon, but this, it appears, was erron eous. The donor specified that total pHis should determine the winner, and -a team may win but one of the four games and still capture the silver pin. The locals had little practice before going to Portland, but intend getting in shape for the next match.
