RALEIoH, N. O., July 2S.-Governor Holden
has refused to deliver up the prisoners arrested
by Colonel Kirk in Alamance county on the
mandate of the Chief Justice. The counsel of
the prisoners moved to attach the Governor.
The motion was refused by the Chief Justice.
The counsel then moved to attach Colonel
Kirk. This motion was also refused. They then
moved to send the Marshal of the Supreme
Court to Kinks camp to bring the prisoner in.
The motion was refused, the Chief Justice say
ing 1t would be idle, as the order would not be
obeyed; and that the counsel for the petitioners
might take 1t as a fact that the Marshal had
been sent and the prisoners not surrendered.
If, as was said by the prisoners counsel, they
intended the application for relief, it should be
made by them to the Chief Justice of the United
States.

n. ". MONEY MARKET YESTERDAY.

From the n. 7. Herald.
"rhere was a more buoyant tone to the Wall street
markets to-day consequent upon better reports from
London, where, despits several failures incident to
settlement day and arising out of the recent sharp
decline in all kinds of securities, American Five
twenties were dealt in at higher prices. The re-
coveTy in prices OF stocks was quite sharp IN the
afternoon, but the dealings were on a limited scale
owing to d lack of general confidence pending the
war III Europe, and hence the markets were dull at
the Improvement.
"The course OF speculation at the Gold Exchange
was towards lower quotations. The earliest dealings
before the board were somewhat excited on the an
n0uncement that the Empress Eugene mad been
made regent-a fact suggestive of a vigorous war
policy on the part OF the Emperor-and gold sold as
high as 1921. From this point it receded to 1917 on
the rumor that Secretary Boutwell, intended accept
ing bids for more than a million gold az the Sub
Treasury sale at noon. The %disproval of this story
produced no reaction, for meantime the London
kilograms reported tiye-twenties as advanced
to SO, the effect of which was a further de-
cline to 121. Afterwards there was a reaction to
1922 on the large shipment OF specie-the largest of
any single day since the beginning OF the present
European complications. The total Shipment was
SS, 277, G6I, Of which the Scotia took $2,541, ISL, and
the Wisconsin $3.50, 900. The bids for the Govern
ment gold were for a total OF 81, 24O, 600, at prices
ranging from 800 to l2l'5l. The million was awarded
at 121'51@121'3S.
There was a still further relaxation in money, and
borrowers on call, with pledge OF miscellaneous COL
laterals, were accommodated at five TO six per cent.
On Governments the rate was three to four per cent.
In discounts there was more currency for prime
double name acceptances at seven per cent"

THE RECENT DISASTROUS CONFEDERATION
A CASE FoR THE C~HARITABLE.-A visit to the
ruins of the recent destructive fire GA Race
street this morning showed that a portion of
the wall on Race street had fallen down, and
that the remaining portion on both Race and
Crown streets is in imminent danger of topping
over. The police still maintain a clear passage
way from Fifth to Fourth streets by means of
ropes. Two lines of hose are in service, cooling
the bricks and debris surrounding the safes, $50
that those articles may be taken out.
To the north of the sugar refinery, on Crown
street, lived a family by the name of Camp
bell, consisting of the husband, wife, and two
children. Mr.. Campbell is in very delicate
health, and his wife succeeded in maintaining
her family by keeping a small candy store,
which was principally patronized by the school
children. When the north wall of the refinery
fell, on the right of the fire, it carried away the
roof and third and second floors OF the Campbell
dwelling. The bedding, sheeting, etc., which
had been removed previously, was made
use of in carrying away the injured firemen,
and of that which was returned, the most is in
a condition rendering it unfit for further use.
The Campbells had nothing else than the store
to depend upon, and have been thrown out of
q home. The members of the Neptune Hose
Company have opened the doors OF their house
to the family, and they are now being supported
by the contributions of this organization.
Matthias Fury, one of the iiremen admitted
to the hospital on Tuesday evening, suffering
from injuries received at this fire, died last
evening. Tho other injured firemen admitted
at the same time are all in a fair way of re-
cOVery.
