announcement of the governors proc lamation declaring today a holiday to assist the banks of the state there have been many applications for state money which under the law passed at the last legislature may be loaned to approved banks which give proper se- curity. State Treasurer Williams re- fused to forward loans until he had been advised by the attorney general. on the grounds that he did not know whether it would be legal 10 close the deals on a legal holiday.
 Williams says: The proclamation declaring today a holiday has not af- fected the cashing of warrants against the state treasury. This is pay day and officials and attaches of the state have been paid. But I refused to send out the money sought by the banks on loans heretofore negotiated These applications since the holidays have been proclaimed have been pouring in but before I close any deals am going to get the advice of the attorney gen eral''
 It is announced that Governor GiI- lett has left Eureka and will arrive in San Francisco tomorrow. Private Secretary to the Governor. E. S. Cooper. received a telegram from the executive this afternoon directing another holiday to be declared to- morrow.
 Cooper at once issued a proclamation similar to that of yesterday. Cooper was instructed to call holidays from day to day. until such time as that ac- tion may be dispensed with

The Acute Form of the Depression In New
 York Has Passed Away
With It's Effects Still Fresh In Mind There is a Re- newed Interest In the Elastic Currency Plan Which Was Allowed to Sleep.

New York, Oct 31.-The indications are that available supplies of cash will be materially increased within a short time with imports of gold and an in crease of bank note circulation and that the movement of the cotton and grain crops will be facilitated in every way possible with the result of in creasing credits abroad.
 It seemed to be recognized every where that the acute stage is over and that all that remains to be done is to obtain sufficient currency to re- sume currency payments upon a broad scale and thus restore the conditions prevailing before the crisis.
 Engagements of gold made for New York. Chicago and elsewhere have brought the total import movement within the past week to S23, ,750, 900. As that amount of gold will afford a basis of credit to four times that amount or about s95, 5,000, 900, it in it. self has afforded much relief to1 the existing pressure. There is prompt response of national banks through out the country.
 | It is noted with interest by leading bankers here that the present scarcity of currency resources which have been

made national banks circulation are arousing unusual interest in the plan for currency reform indorsed by the American Bankers association. This plan was adopted in December last year after a consultation with repre- sentatives of the New York Chamber of Commerce and presented to con- gress at that time. The plan did not receive the definite approval of the American Bankers association, how ever. until the meeting at Atlantic City in September last, but at that time it was endorsed by nearly unanimous vote after strong argu- ments in favor of it by Barton Hep burn, president of the Chake National Bank of New York. and Representa- tive Charles N. Fowler. chairman of the house committee on banking. The committee which framed the measure continued with authority to. take fur ther action. It has not held meet ing since the convention at Atlantic City, but some western members of the committee are strongly desirous that such a meeting be called at an early date in order to bring the sub- ject properly before congress while public opinion is aroused on the sub- iect.

IFS PROBABLY ALL OvER
 WIIh ROYAL FOWLER
He Was Doomed to Be Eieetrocuted in } the Ohio Penitentiary This Morning.

Columbus. Ohio Oct. 31.-Royal Fow- Ter aged twenty-five will be electro cuted in the annex of the ohio state penitentiary shortly after midnight to- night for the murder of Mary Hagerty. his sweetheart. at Dayton. in the sum- mcr of 1906. Ever since his incarcera- tion in the death cage Fowler has been indifferent to his fate. A final appeal in his behalf was made by his mother, Mrs. Anna Arnold, today. but Governor Harris declared that the circumstances of the crime did not justify clemency.
 Fowler deserted his family in Penn sylvania for Miss Hagerty and he shot her as she stood on the porch of her home. Jealousy was the motive. Prior to this crime Fowler had served several sentences in the Dayton workhouse and was regarded as degenerate. He professed conversion and seems to be deeply religious.

INTERNATIONAL ETHICS HURRIES TAFT AWAY
Why the Seeretary's Visit to the Phil
 ippines Has Been Cut Short.

Washington, Oct. 31.-There are in dications that Secretary Tafts deci- sion to return to his original plan and sail from Manila for Vladivostok next Monday instead of the week follow ing, as he suggested to the president. was after all based on international considerations. Ii has been found i'm possible for an official of his rank to visit one of the European countries as the guest of the sovereign without visiting the capitals of other countries through which he must pass on his homeward journey.
 It is believed here that the decision of the administration was reached that an acceptance of invitations from those capitals would be inexpedient as it would change Mir. Taft's plans.

STRICKEN KARATAGh
 WITHOUT RELIEF
The Russian Government Prevented From Rendering Aid by its Policy of Non- Interference.

St. Petersburg. Oct. 3l.-The Rus sian government is taking no steps to send a relief expedition to Karatagh. which was destroyed by an earthquake as to do so would be contrary to the Russian policy of non-interference in the internal affairs os Bokhara. It involves also journey of over 5000 miles through the mountains from the nearest Russian point.
 It .s not known here what steps the Bokhara government Is taking to send relief. but it appears to be acting with the usual characteristic Asiatic fatalism. Newspaper correspondents at Eamarkand, and Tasheld. Bokhara. and Kokhand. have not ret been able to supply further details of the disas- ter.

FIGHT
 WITH INDIANS
A Battle In Utah Near the
 Arizona Border
A Navajo Who Carried His Opposition to the Whites Toe Far.

Washington, Oct. 3J.-A battle be- tween United States troops and Indians in southern Utah occurred several days ago and three persons were killed and another wounded. All are said to be Indians. The news Was conveyed to the Indian bureau in telegram from Superintendent Shelton dated yester- day.
 The army command consisted of four officers, seventyfour men and three Indian scouts. Ten Indians were ar rested including By Lillie their leader. The Indians are reported quiet. No further trouble is expected. The In- dians are part of band of Navajos of New Mexico and eastern Arizona who have been creating a disturbance be- cause of disinclination to observe the regulations. Superintendent Shelton requested troops. Troops 1 and K of the Fifth Cavalry under Captain Will lard were sent from Fort Wingate, N. M.. to Arnetta. Arizona. October 22nd.
 By Lillie lives on the south side of the San Juan river in Utah about forty miles northwest of the San Juan agency and has for some time past been making a general opposition to the adoption of the whiteman's meth ods. going so far as to threaten to kill the agent and some of his assistants. When some friendly Indians who com pose a vast majority of the Navajos regard him as a wizard and one of them who died few months ago att tributed his illness to witchcraft by the d.saffected leader. They made many requets that By Lillie be removed from the reservation and on a previous oc- casion he was driven out with an ad- monition not to return. It is presumed that when troops appeared he met them with arms and was captured but not until four of his followers had fallen.

San Francisco. Oct. 3l.-San Fran cisco passed quietly through the first day of the series of public holidays proclaimed by the govrernor for the protection of the banks and the de- posting public in the present financial stress. The bank commissioner spent the entire day in examining the condi- tion of the California Safe Deposit and Trust company but gave out no state ment. The money in the main institu- tion and its four branches was counted and the vaults sealed.
 The San Francisco sub-treasury to- day put in circulation q 1,25O, 900; of this SI5O,OOO was released on telegraphic transfers from New York banks in par tial settlement of balances due their San Francisco correspondents and S50o,0oO were paid in cashing certifi- cates of deposit held in local banks for the last twelve months.
 Advices are that several millions of imported gold engaged by New York in Europe and South America now in course of shipment will be a: once di- verted to this city in settlement with eastern branches. Leading members of the clearing house reaffirmed the statement that no genuine cause of alarm exists and predicted that the present stress will disappear before the close of next week, as the situation in the east is relieved.
