Silver is taking boom. the price last
week being higher than it has been, with
one exception, for four years. Ore buyers
assert some foreign government is buying
up all the silver it can, the signs pointing
to England. The belief is that the
British government is about to resume
the coinage of silver in India, hence the
demand for the metal. Others assert
that the increased production of gold has
much to do with the advance in price,
despite governmental discrimination
against silver. It is fact that the price
of silver has been steadily rising for the
last two months. Until now the cause has
been somewhat of mystery, though sill
yer brokers were satisfied that the large
purchases of some foreign power were
forcing up the quotations.

CoURTMARTIAL MAY RESULT.
Responsibility Placed for Disaster on
the Bennington.

Washington, Aug. 23.-The findings
Of the court of inquiry into the Ben
nington disaster suggest courtmar-
tial for Ensign Wade, the only surviv-
ing officer who may be held respon-
sible.
The findings were complete sur.
prise, for they at once set at rest the
stories that had been circulated to the
effect that the Benningten's boilers,
and perhaps those Of other naval ves-
sells of the same age, were defective.
AS a matter Of fact the court found
the explosion resulted from the clos
ing of q valve which connected the
exploded boiler with its steam guage
so that the pressure on the boiler may
have been several hundred pounds to
the square inch when the accident oc-
Cured.
While praise was accorded to the
officers and crew of the ship for their
conduct during the narrowing scenes

seek a coast settlement where provi'
sions could be obtained. The Tora
