THE LONDON MARKETS
Confidence in America the Most I'm
portant Feature

LONDON, Aug. S.-Since the begin
ming of the month there has been the
usual release of funds by the joint stock
banks. Money is more abundant, though
the discount rates show a tendency to
harden, owing to the prospect of gold
Withdrawals in the autumn. Japan will
doubtless withdraw a portion of the pro-
ceeds of the last loan and the continental
demand, though reduced, may still con-
tinue. The chief factor, however, is the
extent to which it may be necessary
to export gold to the United States
against the grain harvests. The Euro
pean, Australian and Indian. harvests
are deficient, and the American supplies
will be largely drawn. upon. Indeed, the
movement is already turning the course
of exchange against London. For the
time being gold remittances are averted
by the steady purchases on the part IF
the Americans of their own securities
in London, but according to precedent
the advance in. values thus established
should shortly effect a checking of sales
by the British holders. if, indeed, re-
purchases should not be encouraged.
The revival of business and confidence
in the United States is in many ways
the most important feature of the situ-
alton. The increased activity of the
stock exchange is largely due to the
same cause, though the buoyancy of
Wall street has not yet met with full
response among the operators here.
Yesterday for the first time of late
prices were above the level of cable
quotations. The rise began with North
ern Pacific preferred which advanced
31a points upon the assumption that
Mr.. Underwood's domination will mean
an ending of the war between the COM
peting lines, and that then everything
may be hoped for. Other stocks have
risen from 2 to points, and Norfolks
are especially strong. Canadian Pacifics
and Grand Trunks are steady, the recent
effects of the Klondyke strike having
had a Strengthening effect. Kaff1rs were
strong and the foreign. market is on the
whole firm, with a decided improve
ment in Greek and Turks, as the pros
poets of peace brighten.

REVOLVING INDIANS
Promise More Trouble for the English
Rulers

LONDON, Aug. S.-A dispatch to the
Times from Simla says that another out
break is officially reported on the Af-
CHAN frontier The mullah, who preach
ed against England, during the Chitral
campaign, has again stirred up strife
in the Mohland country by representirg 9
that the success of the Turks in Europe
provides a favorable opportunity for
defying English rule. He has gathered
some thousands Of followers. AS it was
too late for him to assist in the attack
on Camp Malakand, he attacked Fort
Shabakadar. eighteen miles from Pesh-
awar.
The attack was made yesterday morn
ing Saturday. The police and garrison
beat off the natives, who then burned a
Hindoo village and killed some of the in :
habitants.
!. A strong force of cavalry and infantry
and artillery has been sent from Pesh-
awar to punish the rebels and it is re-
ported they have fled across the from

Colonel Bennett Dead

SAN JOSE, Aug. S.-Col. Augustus G.
Bennett died today after a lengthy ILL
ness from cancer of the stomach. He
was born in Oneida county, New York,
in 1886. When the rebellion broke out he
enlisted as private in the Eighty-first
New York infantry and soon was pro-
NOTED to lieutenant, then captain. He
served in the Peninsular campaign with
Mcclellan. While in the south he re-
cruited a company of negroes and was
made colonel of it. He was stationed at
Morris island and when Charleston sur
rendered it was to Col. Bennett. He had
charge Of the city under martial law,
which he declared. He came to San Jose
from New York in 1876 served in the
common council and board of educa ton

street commissioner He was promi-
nent member of the G. A. r. post and

DURRANT'S APPEAL
The Prisoners Lawyers Fighting for
More Time

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 8.-Though
Durrant's appeal from the order of Judge
Bahrs setting June 9 as the day of his
execution is set for argument tomorrow
morning in the supreme court, an effort
will be made by the prisoners attorneys
to have the argument postponed. The
ground of the motion to be made for this
purpose arises out of Sec. 766 of the
United States revised statutes, under
which the execution itself was post
poned, pending the appeal in the habeas
corpus proceedings. That section pro
tvides that pending the determination of
such an appeal all proceedings against
the prisoner in the state courts shall
be stayed and absolutely null and void.
The principal contention made by Dur
rants attorneys in this appeal from
Judge Bahrs' order is that the judg-
ment rendered is double, in that it di-
rected that he should be taken to the
prison at San Quentin, a penal institu-
ton, and there kept in close confinement
and afterward be executed.

Broke Her Jaw

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. s.-Mrs
