Drain, in his Alaska program broadcasted over KJR, Seattle, last night, predicted that they will tre- ble in value within few months.

He thinks business will continue to improve regardless of the election results.

SEVILLE, Spain, Aug. 25.-Gen. Jose Sanjurjo, who took this city and proclaimed himself captain general of Andalusia at the outset of the one-day rightists' rebellion against the Spanish republic, has been the great enigma of the na- tion ever since Alfonso XIII and the royal family fled abroad.
 His arrest at Huelva when the revolt was less than "A hours old signalized the collapse of the movement
 Although devoted servant of the monarchy, he had continued under the new government as commander of the civil guards, holding disorderly clements in check and keeping aloof from politics Felt it His Duty i He never publicly explained his stand in this respect, but admir- CTS say that the key can be found in the word duty" Sworn tc uphold public order, they explain the general believed that the guards as peace officers, should be kept out of politics.
 Thus the guard held to its tradition of upholding constituted authority blindly, in fact, the com mander visited republican head quarters on April IA, 1881, and tolc Alcola Zamora and other leader: that the 35,000 armed and disci- phned men under him would mol interfere with proclamation o. a republic
 This, moreover, was shortly af- ter the general had personally es' corted Queen Victoria to the Els corial station and bidden her farewell in which he made nt attempt to conceal his pain ans regret
 Outburst Hurts His Standing
 But eventually the General feelings burst their bounds. Tn occasion was an affair in the re mote village of Castilblanco, wher the population mas5acred the guar' garrison of four men and too over control of the town. 4 General Sanjurjo spoke up thel and publicly denounced "unpat -iotic socialistic efforts .
