THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL PORTLAND. MONDAY. : JANUARY 17. 1916. . . V r IJiDS AND ICE I UP RIVER STEAMERS Heavy Wind Holds W. F. Herrin at Dock Till Tow Boat Helps Her to Stream, AND DELAY COASTERS AASTORIA LINE GIVEN UP Daly Tear XfUamboats Bemala la TTss on rortUad Trent j Im Xumm Aids to navigation. Heasy easterly winds combined with the floating- lea thia morning to make navigation of the Willamette and Co lumbia rlrera dangerous. Tha Associated Oil tanker William , F. Herrin was unable to get away from her dock at Linn ton this morning and after two hours' of trying to start the big craft. Captain Engalls sent to Port land for a towboat, the Ocklahama be ing sent down to start her. Astoria and Vancouver ferry serv- Ices were abandoned by the Harking Transportation company this morning, a a the ice is now too thick and heavy for wooden river Steamers to buck. The Bteamar Jessis Hal-kins has been running la place of the Vancouver ' ferry, bat waa pulled off a 3:30 'clock yesterday afternoon. The steamers Undine and Lurllne have been making; daylight trips to Astoria but will be tied op this afternoon. Only four river steamers are left in Operation. The steamers America and lralda are continuing to St. Helens, a the Willamette Blough is not frozen over. The Oregon City Transportation company is still running the steamers Oregona and Grahamona to Salem, the upper Willamette being unaffected by the cold. ' Inspector Robert Warrock of the . Seventeenth lighthouse district this . morning ordered the tender Manaanita to bo in readiness at Astoria to take up the gas buoys in the bay. The Har rington point buoy is already affected as ice is running clear to Astoria. It will be taken up this morning and a less valuable spar buoy placed there. If the ic fills Astoria bay it is prob able that other gas buoys will also ba taken up. Movement of coasting steamers has kept the ice fairly well broken up and there are aPots in the lower Columbia Where no Ice exists, but the greater tart of the river Is filled with sharp, heavy chunks capable of doing much carnage to a wooden hull. The steamer Ban Ramon, in from San Francisco last night, was forced to replace her tin sheeting in midstream,, tha ice bav. lng torn the first coating off. Sho suffered considerable scratching ami cutting about tha bow but no serious damage. NEW. CHARTERS TO BE HIGH Opening Qf 1916-17 Season to Be at 113 Shillings; Sailer Taken, , New charters at 115 shillings for stalling ships are said to be the basis upon which the new season's crop will start to move. Westrope & Co. of San Francisco, Saturday closed for the . British' ship Belford. at that figure while Portland exporters assert that all inquiries from them have been met with responses containing that price or even better ones. Before the war charters were 27 . Shillings 6 pence. At the end of the first yean- they were 60 shillings. Tha last season's crop' moved at from 82 hillings to 100 shiUinps. This makes an increase In freight rates of 420 per cent within a little over two years.

(L N. 8.) Two young men, brothers, are under arrest here today, accused of plotting to kill their father, mother and sister. At the police station at Oak Park, man D. Updike, possessed, and which they believed waa to have been be queathed to their sister. The hidden disc of a dictagraph in the garage in the rear of the family home at 217 Forest avenue waa the means of trapping the pair. To Uss Maxim Silencer. No more ingenious plan to commit murder aver was hatched, according to tn- -tory A Hf. with a Maxim silencer was to have ben " to kill the sleeping family. an uiomouua was to nave oeen in readiness to aid In the escape and to throw the police off the trail, and finally a complete alibi bad been ar ranged. Here la a sample of the cold-blooded plot that the polios and prlvals de- tectives assert came over to them over the dictagraph wire: "We'll put a ladder against the side of the house so it win reach the win dow of the old man's roora," said Irv ing, according to the story. To Save Automobile Keady. i "You take the rifle with the Maxim silencer and put a black mask over ! your face and climb the ladder while I I stand guard beiow. I'll have the au- tomobile ready. "You open the window and shoot the . old man and then coma down. We'll Jump into the automobile and speed away, and everybody will think it was the work of automobile bandits. "We'll go to Lockport and throw the gun and-mask into the drainage canal - v and then hurry back to the Hotel I,a awe. we aire sure to meet some peo pie We know there. The will he Is going to make today won't count and we'll get his money." To Kill Mother and Bister. "But what about mother?" asked SONS "s5 ! the money after father is dead?" "I never thought of that." paid Irv 3 5 ins. "Well, you'll have to do away with her, too, right after you shoot the old man." "And Plorence7" asked Herbert, re- ferring to their grown sister, who was to inherit a large rart of Mr. Updike's wealth, under the will he was to make disinheriting his sons. "She had better go, too," said Irv ing. Was to Make Saw Will. That was all. but to the listening detectives at the otMer end of the wire there had been unfolded one of the most atrocious stories they had ever heard. The facts were quickly placed before Chief of Police Lee of Oak Park and tho arrest of the boys followed. The plot to murder Mr. Updike, be cause his sons learned ha waa to make a new will today, cutting them orf from participation In their shars of his estate, if not disinheriting tliem, is said to have originated with Irving and was originally set for the nght of January 4. Walter W. Howes Came West in 1868 Foster, Or.. Jan. 17. Walter W. Howes, one of the pioneer farmc-i of this community, died last Monday at the home of his nephew, Charl Howes. The indirect cause of the death was a stroke of paralyri, wnleh he suffered In 1911. but ihe direct cause was a dropsical condi tion since last Christmas that endrfd In heart failure.

VON PAPENS STUBS E PAID BEFORE HE SET BOMB London Paper Claims Sum of $700 Was Paid Man Who Later Blew Up R. R. Bridge London, Jan. 17. (I. X. S It la declared here unofficially that the check stubs seized among the papers of Captain Von Papen, the recalled mili tary attache of the German embassy to the United States, show that tha check for 1700 paid to Werner Home ras dated before Home dynamited th Canadian Pacific railway bridge at Vanceboro, Maine. , The "Dally Chronicle" in an editorial on the Von Fapen check book disclos ure, says: "It Is fair to assume that the evi dence is only a very small sample of what came into our hands at Falmouth. The wonder 1b that a professional plot ter like Von Papen let us find any at all. Such as It is. It is sensational enough. "Hero Is a diplomatic official, ac credited to a neutral country and en- Joying diplomatic privileges who uses these privileges as a screen behind which he not only organized espionage and promoted breaches of neutrality at the expense of belligerents, but sub orns dynamite outrages at the expense of the neutral country Itself. "It must bo remembered that these disclosures are not bolts from tha blue, but decisive corroborations of a pre sumption which had -grown overwhelm ing as to the existence of German plots in the United States to commit out rages by arson and dynamite." The Times says that while the let ters seised from James F. J. Arch ibald did not contain proof that any members of ths Austrian or German embassies were directly concerned in the promotion of the outrages, "the evidence Of such connection would seem to be offorded by the Von Papen documents." Payments by Captain von Papen to two persons charged with playing im portant parts In the activities of Ger man agents in the United States are dis closed by a further examination of the documents in the British govern ment's possession, A bank book shows that checks were given to Paul Koenlg, head of the police service of the Hamburg-American line, who la under arrest In New York, and Hans Adam Von Wedell, who has been Indicted at New Tork for. conspiracy. Koenlg la credited with having received several checks for large guma The books show the receipt by Cap tain von Papen of large sums from "Bernsdorff." The payments began In August, 1914, a few days after the commencement of ths war, and continued until the middle of October last. Some of tbe payments are credited to "Bernsdorff and others to "embassy." WATERY PIMPLES ON HACE Developed Into Hard Pimples. Large and Irritated.
