NELSON HARBOR.
RATES TO BE INCREASED. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Nelson, Last Night. The Nelson Harbor Board to-day, after hearing a statement by the chairman of the Board's fmaneial position, and as to the increased charges that would have to be faced in the coming year, reBolved to increase the general wharfage rate to three shillings and sixpence per ton as from July. It was also resolved to give the Railway Department notice of the Board's intention to take over the control of the wharves as soon as possible. The Board decided to ask the Shipping Controller why the steamer Whakatano was not sent to Nelson as arranged to lift frozen meat and other produce, seeing the harbor is in the same condition now as when she came here before.
