CRICKET - CROFT RESTRICTS PAKISTAN TO 225-5 . MANCHESTER , England 1996-08-29 Tight bowling from Glamorgan off-spinner Robert Croft helped England to restrict Pakistan to 225 for five in their 50 overs in the first one-day international at Old Trafford on Thursday . Croft , who was one of the few Englishmen to make a good impression in his test debut at The Oval last week , showed great control as he first dried up the early flow of Pakistan runs and then collected the wickets of Aamir Sohail and Wasim Akram in a spell of 10-1-36-2 . There was also a wicket each for Ronnie Irani , Allan Mullally and Darren Gough although there was no joy for Dean Headley who , along with Lancashire batsman Graham Lloyd , was making his international debut . After Wasim had won the toss and chosen to bat first , Pakistani made an excellent start as Sohail and Saeed Anwar continued their good form with an opening partnership of 82 . Anwar , who struck a superb 176 at The Oval , was the more aggressive as he made 57 from 75 balls before skying a catch off Irani to Mullally at long-on . Sohail and Ijaz Ahmed then added 59 for the second wicket before England struck back with three wickets for 19 in the space of five overs . First , Sohail , after making 48 , was bowled by Croft as he stepped back to try and hit through the off-side . Wasim , who promoted himself to number four in the order , followed for six when Croft drifted another well-flighted delivery behind his legs . Shortly after Ijaz was also back in the pavilion for 48 after Irani had repaid Mullally with another good catch at long-on . Gough later bowled Moin Khan with an inswinging yorker but Inzamam-ul-Haq , 37 not out , and Salim Malik took Pakistan to 225 for five when the overs ran out .

BASEBALL - YANKEES BRAWL AND CONTINUE TO SLIDE . SEATTLE 1996-08-29 Jay Buhner hit a three-run homer and former Yankee Terry Mulholland allowed one run over seven innings as the Seattle Mariners completed a sweep of New York with a 10-2 victory in a game marred by a bench-clearing brawl . Including the last three games of last October 's Divisional Playoff Series , the Mariners have beaten the Yankees 12 of the past 15 meetings overall and 14 of the last 16 in the Kingdome . Five players were ejected after Yankees ' outfielder Paul O'Neill and Seattle catcher John Marzano got into a fight after O'Neill had been brushed back . In Baltimore , Don Wengert threw a nine-hitter for his first shutout and Jose Herrera had a two-run double in a three-run fifth inning as the Oakland Athletics blanked the Baltimore Orioles 3-0 . Wengert ( 7-9 ) , who failed to record a shutout in his previous 86 starts in either the minors or majors , did not walk a batter and struck out three for Oakland .

TENNIS - MARTINEZ GETS AGGRESSIVE AT U.S. OPEN . Larry Fine NEW YORK 1996-08-28 Conchita Martinez decided that when in New York , do as the New Yorkers do -- and the Spaniard 's new-found aggressiveness seems to have put her in the right frame of mind for the U.S. Open . The fourth-seeded Spaniard , who is tackling the world class traffic of New York City as a warm-up by driving to the tennis centre for her matches , ran over France 's Nathalie Tauziat 6-1 6-3 on Wednesday to take her place in the third round . " I 've been trying my whole career to be aggressive , " said the 24-year-old Martinez after crushing Tauziat in just over an hour . " What I 'm trying to do is be aggressive all the time , maybe go up to the net a few times like I did tonight . That would really help . " Martinez , the 1994 Wimbledon champion , used to struggle at the Open , but has come to terms with the noise , crowds and chaos . " There is a lot of things that can happen , " Martinez said about her early difficulties adjusting to tennis on the cement at Flushing Meadows . " Like traffic . We stay in Manhattan and it 's a long way to come . The crowds , they speak louder or they move . That does n't happen in other Grand Slams . That 's where the real champion wins . You have to concentrate for these two weeks . " It took Martinez four Opens to get as far as the quarters , and another four to match that . Last year , Martinez , who finished 1995 ranked second in the world , reached the semifinals before bowing out to Monica Seles . Now she feels she is in the swing of things . " I have my own car now and that helps , " said Martinez . " Sometimes the transportation they ( the tournament ) provide gets a little messed up . This time it did n't happen . I do the driving and I love it . It gets my adrenalin going , those taxi drivers . " We change lanes all the time in Barcelona . I 'm used to it and I like to drive fast . "

It was another stunning mid-season acquisition for the Braves , who already have an 11-game lead in the National League Eastern Division . In the last 15 days , Atlanta has traded for third baseman Terry Pendleton , claimed outfielder Luis Polonia on waivers and called up minor-league phenom Andruw Jones , all in preparation for their fifth post-season .

ATHLETICS - JOHNSON , CHRISTIE , BAILEY TO RUN OWENS RELAY . Adrian Warner BERLIN 1996-08-29 Olympic champions Michael Johnson and Donovan Bailey and former champion Linford Christie will run in a " Dream Team " sprint relay squad in honour of Jesse Owens on Friday . Johnson , the 200 metres world record holder , and Britain 's 1992 Olympic 100 champion Christie confirmed on Thursday that they would join 100 record holder Bailey and Namibia 's Frankie Fredericks in one of the greatest 4x100 squads ever assembled . They will run against quartets from the United States , Europe and Africa in a special race at the Berlin Grand Prix meeting to mark the 60th anniversary of Owens 's four gold medals at the 1936 Olympics in the German capital . Christie will run the anchor leg after Canada 's Bailey , American Johnson and Olympic silver medallist Fredericks have run the first three stages of the relay . The participation of Bailey and Fredericks had been known before Thursday . But Christie did not announce his decision to run until the eve of the meeting when organisers also confirmed Johnson would take part . Christie is due to retire from international competition at the end of the season although he may compete for Britain in next season 's European Cup . Although Christie , who is not racing the individual 100 metres in Berlin , took his time to agree to run , the veteran was clearly delighted to be part of the tribute to the black American . When five former Olympic 100 champions from 1948 to 1980 , who have been invited to watch the race , turned up at a news conference on Thursday , Christie was quick to put his autograph book in front of the them . " I do n't normally do this but can you please sign , " he said thrusting an ornate white book in front of Americans Harrison Dillard ( 1948 ) , Lindy Remigino ( 1952 ) , Jim Hines ( 1968 ) , Trinidad 's Hasely Crawford ( 1976 ) and Britain 's Allan Wells ( 1980 ) . " Jesse Owens inspired everyone here and it is great to have a tribute to him . " Owens 's widow Ruth is not well enough to attend but a message from her will be read out by the sprinter 's grand-daughter Gina Tillman during the meeting Berlin organisers hoped to have American 1984 and 1988 champion Carl Lewis in the squad but he injured himself in last Friday 's Brussels meeting .

SOCCER - GENOA AWARDED ITALIAN CUP WIN . MILAN 1996-08-29 Italian soccer 's sports judge on Thursday ruled that Genoa , beaten 3-0 by Lecce in the first round of the Italian Cup , should be awarded a 2-0 victory because their opponents fielded a banned player . The ruling meant that serie B club Genoa now meet local serie A arch-rivals Sampdoria in the second round . Genoa appealed after their defeat last Saturday on the grounds that Lecce striker Jonathan Bachini , who came on in the 71st minute with his team leading 2-0 , still had a one-match suspension to serve from last season .

Zaire installs first election delegates . KINSHASA 1996-08-29 A total of 116 delegates to Zaire 's National Election Commission ( CNE ) were formally installed on Thursday , launching another phase of the Central African nation 's much-delayed democratic transition . The 116 , representing political parties in the capital Kinshasa , will help organise a voter census , a constitutional referendum planned for January and efforts to brief potential voters on what balloting involves . A total of 9,446 delegates will be deployed throughout Zaire 's 11 provinces for the elections , which must be held by July 1997 under the transitional constitution . Presidential , parliamentary and municipal elections are planned for May . " We can meet the required deadlines for organising the elections . All that is needed is for everyone to show goodwill , " Commission spokesman Yoka Lye Mudaba told reporters . Delegates to the commission from the other 10 provinces will be installed progressively from next week with the provinces of North and South Kivu , Maniema , Shaba and Bandundu having priority , he said . The installation of delegates was initially scheduled for July . Officials said lack of funding had delayed the process .

Nigeria would not refuse Commonwealth officials . LAGOS 1996-08-29 Nigeria would not object to a visit by Commonwealth officials but insists its suspension from the organisation be resolved before any other questions are addressed , Foreign Minister Tom Ikimi said on Thursday . Ikimi reiterated his position that the Commonwealth had no mandate to send a fact-finding mission . " The request I have received is for their officials to come and talk to my officials . We cannot object to people wanting to visit Nigeria , " Ikimi told Reuters by telephone from the capital Abuja . " The fundamental problem we have with the Commonwealth is our unfair suspension . Any discussions we have at ministerial level will be a continuation of what we began in London on that . Before that is accomplished we cannot address anything else . " Nigeria was suspended from the Commonwealth in November after the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other minority rights activists in defiance of international pleas for clemency . A meeting of Commonwealth ministers in London on Wednesday said it planned to send a team of senior officials to Nigeria as soon as possible to persuade Abuja to accept a fact-finding mission . The timing of that mission has yet to be determined . The latest diplomatic row between Nigeria 's military government and the club of Britain and its former colonies erupted over the terms of a visit by Commonwealth ministers to discuss Nigeria 's suspension . Nigeria said they would be restricted to a two-day meeting with government officials , but the Commonwealth said it wanted to hold meetings with people outside the government and called off the visit .

NATO releases Serb police , crisis easing - NATO . SARAJEVO 1996-08-29 NATO forces released a group of Bosnian Serb policemen late on Thursday and a tense confrontation appeared to be easing , an alliance spokesman said . " The situation in Mahala seems to be very much on its way toward resolution . My understanding is the ( Serb ) police have been released ... In Zvornik , we think the situation is winding down as well , " NATO spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Max Marriner told Reuters . NATO troops detained 65 Bosnian Serb policemen early on Thursday after they attacked Moslem refugees returning to homes in Mahala , a Serb-controlled village on Bosnia 's internal boundary line . In apparent retaliation for NATO 's detention of the Serbs , an angry Serb mob including policemen trapped six unarmed U.N. police monitors and three local aides in their office in the town of Zvornik , east of Mahala . Marriner said NATO forces confiscated 25 long-barreled AK-47 automatic assault rifles from the detained Serbs before setting them free . " Local radio and television there ( in Zvornik ) are advising people to step back and take it easy . We think that when the word about how things are going in Mahala which is about 35 minutes away by road reaches Zvornik that should help , " Marriner said .

Kornblum , Milosevic discuss election crisis . Peter Greste BELGRADE 1996-08-29 U.S. envoy John Kornblum met Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic on Thursday in an effort to defuse a growing crisis surrounding Bosnia 's post-war elections . The American diplomat arrived in Belgrade two days after international organisers postponed municipal elections in Bosnia due to irregularities in the registration of Serb refugee voters . " We discussed the decision to postpone the municipal elections and I made clear it was primarily the manipulation of voter registration by the Republika Srpska ( Bosnian Serb republic ) which led to this development , " Kornblum said after three hours of talks . But he said the United States still believed it was important to go ahead with national elections in Bosnia as scheduled on September 14 to bolster the peace process . Kornblum gave no indication that he had won any specific commitment from Milosevic , the patron of the Bosnian Serbs , to rectify any abuses in the registration process . Bosnia 's Moslem political parties have urged their refugees to boycott the elections until irregularities with voter registration are resolved . Human rights workers say Serbian and Bosnian Serb authorities coerced refugees to register only in Serb-held territory in Bosnia to solidify the results of wartime expulsions and military conquest . Serbian officials have denied any abuses occurred during a 10-day registration period and the Bosnian Serbs , angry at the postponement of municipal elections , have threatened to hold local polls on their territory without the international community 's blessing . Kornblum said only elections endorsed by the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe ( OSCE ) would be legitimate . " As we have said publicly before , if there is any effort to do so ( hold local elections ) these elections will not be valid , " he said . " The elections which are valid are those conducted by the international community under the management of the OSCE . " After meeting Milosevic , Kornblum flew to the Croatian capital Zagreb .

Gazprom rises to 2,901.48 rbls at auction . MOSCOW 1996-08-29 A stake of 10 million shares in Russian gas monopoly RAO Gazprom was sold at auction on Thursday at an average 2,901.48 roubles a share , up from 2,891.00 roubles a week ago , the Federal Securities Corporation ( FFK ) said . Starting price at the auction was 2,746 roubles a share and the 40 lots sold for between 2,840 and 2,998 roubles a share , the FFK said in a statement . The stake represented 0.042 percent of Gazprom 's capital . The FFK said that since auctions began , 139.75 million shares , equivalent to 0.59 percent of Gazprom , have changed hands . Gazprom , Russia 's biggest company by market capitalisation , has massive reserves and potentially huge earnings . However , its 23.6 billion shares are highly illiquid and management permission is required to sell them . Gazprom has recently tightened these rules , making it harder for shareholders to sell to whoever they want , when they want . The company has organised regular auctions of its shares to create an orderly market in the paper . At the first auction on March 6 , shares sold for an average 406.6 roubles each , and prices have been rising steadily since then , but the rise in price this week and last was much less than in previous auctions . On the Russian Trading System , Gazprom shares rose 25 percent on Thursday to $ 0.375 from $ 0.300 , after falling by over a third earlier this week . -- Artyom Danielyan , Moscow Newsroom , +7095 941 8520

Serbian policeman shot dead in Kosovo province . BELGRADE 1996-08-29 A policeman has been shot dead in Serbia 's troubled Kosovo province , Serbian police said on Thursday . It was the fifth attack on police this month in the southern province , a hot spot of ethnic tension where the Albanian majority have boycotted Serbian institutions and set up their own , which are considered illegal by Belgrade . The slain policeman Ejup Bajgora , 42 , was an Albanian who had served in the Serbian police and state security since 1987 , police told the Yugoslav news agency Tanjug . He was shot on Wednesday afternoon as he stepped off a bus near his family home in the village of Donje Ljupce in the municipality of Podujevo . Just hours before Wednesday 's shooting , three hand grenades were thrown at a police station in Celopek . They caused damage but no casualties , police said . The Serbian authorities blame Albanian dissidents for the recent spate of attacks . None of the attackers has been caught . Kosovo 's autonomy was revoked in 1987 and Serb police forces cracked down on Albanian protests . Albanian moderates want autonomy restored but hardliners want to join up with neighbouring Albania . The Serbs , who make up 10 percent of the province 's 1.8 million people , claim Kosovo as the cradle of their culture .

Buenos Aires fraud cops held in extortion racket . BUENOS AIRES , Argentina 1996-08-29 Thirteen senior police officers from the fraud squad of Buenos Aires province have been arrested on charges of running an extortion racket , security officials said on Thursday . They included all the top officers from the fraud division of the north of Buenos Aires province , including Commissioner Juan Carlos Lago . Police were seeking a 14th officer . La Nacion newspaper said the officers were suspected of demanding bribes of $ 50,000 to $ 500,000 from companies being investigated for tax evasion in order to " lose " their files . The credibility of the Buenos Aires provincial police , the largest force in Argentina , has been undermined this year by scandals that included the indictment of three officers for links to the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community centre and the arrest of an entire drugs squad for drug trafficking . Alberto Piotti , security chief of Buenos Aires province , told local television that 3,600 dishonest officers had been purged from the force 's ranks in the past five years . " It is an ongoing task . And these investigations into police corruption are only possible because there are people brave enough to denounce them , " Piotti said , promising a major overhaul of the provincial police next month .

Tension builds in Mexican state ahead of elections . [ CORRECTED 05:53 GMT ] CHILPANCINGO , Mexico 1996-08-28 Pre-electoral bickering flared on Wednesday in the troubled western Mexican state of Guerrero as some opposition politicians demanded the army pull out of the area ahead of an upcoming state poll . The mayor of Acatepec , a small town some 310 miles ( 500 km ) south of Mexico City , sent a letter to Mexico 's National Human Rights Commission complaining the army 's heavy presence in the town would interfere with the Oct. 6 election . Mayor Antonio Gonzalez Garcia , of the opposition Revolutionary Workers ' Party , said in Wednesday 's letter that army troops recently raided several local farms , stole cattle and raped women . The letter was signed by some 200 area residents and indigenous leaders . Some electoral watchdog groups also said the presence of the army , which has fanned out across the state in the past month in search of a new guerrilla group , was likely to intimidate voters and had stirred up tension in the state . A French group of electoral observers , Agir Ensemble pour les Droits de l'Homme , concluded the army presence exerted a heavy psychological pressure on local farmers and would prevent a fair vote . Up for grabs in the election are the state legislature and 75 town halls . ( Corrects to show elections are not for governor ) . Despite the criticism , acting state Gov . Angel Aguirre pledged the elections will be free and fair and said he did not expect any trouble from the elusive new guerrilla group , the Popular Revolutionary Army . " The electoral process has been proceeding in accordance with the new state electoral law , " Aguirre said , adding that the poll would be " an exercise in true democracy . "

Thai poll shows military wants PM Banharn out . BANGKOK 1996-08-29 Thailand 's powerful military thinks the government is dishonest and Prime Minister Banharn Silpa-archa 's resignation might solve the nation 's political and economic woes , an opinion poll showed on Thursday . Nearly half the 1,617 military personnel surveyed in the Rajapat Institute poll suggested that Banharn resign , while about 28 percent thought he should dissolve parliament and 24 percent thought a cabinet reshuffle could resolve the government 's problems . Banharn , who leads a six-party , 13-month-old coalition government , faces a no-confidence debate in parliament next month . The prime minister , who has already lost one coalition partner this month , is expected to have a tough battle in the debate because of infighting in his own party and warnings of more pullouts by other coalition partners . The poll , conducted earlier this month after Banharn 's coalition completed one year in office , showed the military would prefer General Chatichai Choonhavan -- a former prime minister who was ousted in a military coup in February 1991 -- as prime minister . Defence Minister Chavalit Yongchaiyudh , head of coalition member the New Aspiration Party , was the second choice for prime minister , the poll showed . Banharn came in last on the list of proposed leaders with less than one percent of the votes . Nearly two-thirds of the people surveyed thought the government was dishonest and insincere , and 65 percent blamed the government 's poor performance for the country 's economic slowdown . The opinion of the military in Thailand , which has seen 17 coups or attempted coups since the country switched to parliamentary democracy from absolute monarchy in 1932 , always carries weight in the political scene , despite officials ' vows to distance the military from politics .

Hamas cleric jailed in Israel hospitalised briefly . JERUSALEM 1996-08-29 Israeli prison officials took jailed Islamic militant Hamas founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin to hospital briefly on Thursday for medical tests , officials said . " This evening Sheikh Yassin completed medical checks and returned to Ramle prisons authority medical centre , " said a spokesman for Israel 's internal security ministry . A prison official said Yassin had a mild case of pneumonia . The 60-year-old Moslem cleric , jailed by Israel since 1989 , is serving a life sentence for ordering attacks by Hamas guerrillas against Israeli targets . The ailing Yassin is the spiritual leader of the fundamentalist Hamas group which has killed scores of Israelis in suicide attacks aimed at wrecking Israel-PLO peace deals . Palestinian President Yasser Arafat has demanded that Israel release Yassin -- who is confined to a wheelchair -- on humanitarian grounds . Israel said last month after it recovered the body of a soldier abducted by Hamas seven years ago that it would consider freeing Yassin .

Scandal hits Clinton campaign at vital moment . Michael Conlon CHICAGO 1996-08-29 President Bill Clinton 's triumphal appearance at the Democratic convention , a vital moment in his bid for a second term , was marred on Thursday by the resignation of a top adviser in a reported sex scandal . Clinton was at work on the nomination acceptance speech that will launch his 10-week re-election campaign when political strategist Dick Morris abruptly announced his resignation on Thursday . The tabloid Star magazine reported the married Morris had a lengthy affair with a $ 200-an-hour prostitute who he allowed to eavesdrop on telephone conversations with Clinton , and with whom he shared White House speeches before they were made . " Dick Morris is my friend , and he is a superb political strategist , " Clinton said in a written statement . " I am and always will be grateful for the great contributions he has made to my campaigns and for the invaluable work he has done for me over the last two years . " Morris declined to address the allegations directly in his resignation statement but said he was quitting to avoid becoming a campaign issue . The surprise development captivated the thousands of reporters at the convention and clearly worried some Democrats , who had planned a triumphal celebration of Clinton 's lead over Dole in the opinion polls . Senator Dianne Feinstein , a California Democrat , called it a " big bump " in the way of the Clinton campaign . " It comes at the worst possible time on one of the biggest days for the president , " Feinstein said . Clinton was to deliver his acceptance speech at the final session of the Democratic Convention opening at 8 p.m. EDT ( midnight GMT ) . The 50-year-old president has been dogged for years by allegations of financial wrongdoing , sexual misconduct and questionable judgment in selecting his advisers . Republicans hope to seize on the " character " issue to bolster Clinton 's challenger Bob Dole in the final weeks of the campaign . Speaking in Santa Barbara , California , Dole did not directly refer to the sexual scandal but said the departure of Morris , who had advised Clinton to chart a more centrist political course , would make Clinton drift back to the left . " Morris has been trying to make President Clinton a Republican , now maybe he 'll revert to the liberal Democrat that he really is , " Dole told reporters . Clinton will hit the road on Friday for a bus tour across several states in his fight to become the first Democratic incumbent re-elected to a second term since the days of Franklin D. Roosevelt . Aides said Clinton planned to spend most of Thursday in his hotel room several miles ( km ) from the convention hall working on his speech . It was apparently neglected on his long " whistle-stop " train trip to the convention , during which he revelled in contact with friendly crowds across the country 's heartland . He was also hoarse and was giving his voice a rest . But first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton told ABC television , " He 's really fired up . " " He wants to outline to the American people what he thinks has been accomplished in the last four years , and what he would like to see done in the next four years , " she said . " He 's very excited about this convention ... He 's excited about the campaign . But more than that , he 's very resolute about what he wants to do . " " I do n't take anything for granted . I always expect elections to get close . I expect to have a great deal of up and down days between now and then , " she said of the November 5 election date . Clinton is leading Dole by as much as 15 points according to some polls . The campaign pits Dole , a man of quick and withering wit and long-time public service , but stilted speaking style , against the glib and confident Clinton , who has perfected a style that makes direct eye contact with his audience .

Researchers report progress in muscular dystrophy . PHILADELPHIA 1996-08-29 University of Pennsylvania researchers on Thursday said a new gene-therapy technique for treating muscular dystrophy disease had shown progress in laboratory animals . Word of the findings , to be published in the Oct. 1 issue of the journal " Human Gene Therapy , " came in advance of the annual Jerry Lewis Labour Day weekend telethon to raise money for muscular dystrophy research . Several hurdles must be overcome before the method is used in human trials . Nevertheless , " a treatment based on the new strategy .... may have the potential to benefit many patients , " the University of Pennsylvania Medical Centre said in a release . Muscular dystrophy is a fatal illness in which the body 's muscle tissue degenerates and is replaced by fat . Death strikes in early adulthood . Individuals with the disease have a non-working version of a gene responsible for producing a crucial muscle protein called dystrophin . In the study at the University 's Institute for Human Gene Therapy , researchers altered a common-cold virus to carry a version of the working dystrophin gene . The virus , which also was altered to minimise its susceptibility to the immune system , was then injected into the muscle cells of mice bred to lack dystrophin genes . In the experiment , between 30 to 40 percent of the muscle fibers in one group of mice produced dystrophin for two weeks before diminishing . Similar results had been obtained previously in test-tube cell cultures , but not in live animals , the university said . The university said methods are still needed to make enough of the altered virus to treat humans , to further decrease the immune-system response to the virus , and to deliver the virus to human muscle tissue .

Help-wanted ad index fell in July . NEW YORK 1996-08-29 The help-wanted advertising index fell in July , the Conference Board said Thursday , reflecting the uneven nature of the nation 's labour markets . The monthly index fell to 83.0 in July against a reading of 85.0 in June , the private business research group said . In July , the volume of help-wanted advertising fell in five of the nine U.S. regions . " The labour market has been expanding throughout 1996 , but in a very uneven pattern , " Conference Board economist Ken Goldstein said . " Recent want-ad figures indicate that conservative hiring plans are keeping job growth below the rate of overall economic activity . " With 2.5 percent gross domestic product growth expected for 1996 , new job growth should slowly lower the unemployment rate over the rest of the year . " With the unemployment rate staying close to about 5.5 percent over the last two years , there is a good chance the rate will slowly drop to about 5.0 percent by the end of the year , " Goldstein said . The July index matched the reading for July , 1995 . The greatest declines in the volume of help-wanted advertising were in the New England , Mountain and West South Central regions . The greatest increase was in the East North Central region .

O.J. Simpson hints at more supporting evidence . Jackie Frank WASHINGTON 1996-08-29 O.J. Simpson said on Thursday he was financially broken by his defence against murder charges but he was hopeful new evidence to support him would be available for a civil trial next month . The former football star was found not guilty by a criminal trial jury last October of the murders of his former wife , Nicole Brown Simpson , and her friend , Ronald Goldman , in June 1994 . He now faces a civil suit brought by families of the victims who hold him responsible for the deaths . He told reporters a court order not to talk about his case kept him from detailing how he has fulfilled his pledge to find the killers . But he added without elaborating , " hopefully we will see some things come out in this next trial . " The judge in the civil trial has imposed a sweeping gag order that prohibits lawyers , witnesses and parties to the case from discussing it with the media or elsewhere in public . " I would love to speak about everything , " said Simpson , who vowed after his acquittal to find the killers and offered a substantial reward . His lawyers have said his defence in the civil trial that starts Sept . 17 will be that he did not kill the victims . Simpson said at the hotel news conference his plans include eventually writing another book . He added that he has had job offers but more have come from abroad than at home . " I 'm broke . I am not crying the blues . I can get along just fine , " he said . " Whatever you want to send me , I need . " He again accused the news media of erroneous reporting on his case but did not signal any plans for lawsuits as he did on Wednesday in an address at a jam-packed Washington church . Contrary to news reports , Simpson said , he has received support from both blacks and whites . He again dismissed charges that he had distanced himself from the black community during his successful football and commercial career , only to seek their support after he faced murder charges . A crowd of 2,000 paid $ 10 a head to hear the former star running back for the Buffalo Bills professional football club and a Football Hall of Fame member on Wednesday night .

U.S. surgeon investigated for discarding foot . CHARLESTON , S.C. 1996-08-29 Health officials said on Thursday they were investigating the discovery of an amputated foot on a beach near Charleston to determine whether a local surgeon had improperly disposed of infectious waste . The foot , which washed up on Sullivan 's Island beach this month , was amputated three years ago from a child whose legs were deformed . The foot had to be removed so the infant could be fitted with a prosthesis . An orthopedic surgeon was given permission by the child 's parents and the hospital to keep the foot for research and educational purposes . Health officials said the surgeon told authorities he stored the foot in his freezer at home , but the freezer recently broke down and the contents spoiled . The surgeon , who apologised for the incident , said he decided to put the foot in a crab trap to remove the flesh . The foot later washed up on the beach .

EU barley sale worth $ 145 / T , for Saudi - sources . PARIS 1996-08-29 A European Union sale of 234,324 tonnes of German intervention barley is worth some $ 145 per tonne fob Germany and is mostly destined for Saudi Arabia , European grain sources said on Thursday . The EU 's cereals management committee sold 234,324 tonnes of German intervention barley at a minimum price of 105.07 Ecus per tonne . Saudi Arabia provisionally bought 800,000 tonnes of optional-origin barley at an August 21 tender at prices between $ 160 and $ 162 including cost , insurance and freight , traders said last week . But European grain traders and officials said the Saudis might reduce the purchase to 600,000 tonnes . Traders have said a substantial part of the deal was likely to come from the European Union , which enjoys a supply and freight advantage over other producers . But subtracting freight costs , the equivalent fob price of the deal is around $ 142 , well below the $ 149 per tonne floor price which the EU put on its barley as news of the deal emerged last week . Last Thursday the EU sold 34,277 tonnes of German intervention barley at a minimum price of 109.36 Ecus per tonne , which was seen as worth $ 149 per tonne fob . -- Paris newsroom +331 4221 5432

Salang tunnel reopened linking Kabul with north . SALANG TUNNEL , Afghanistan 1996-08-29 The Salang tunnel linking Kabul with northern Afghanistan was formally reopened to traffic on Thursday under an agreement between the government and an opposition militia , witnesses said . They said dozens of trucks began moving through the tunnel from both directions after the road reopened . The Salang tunnel , the main supply route for Soviet troops when they were occupying Afghanistan in the 1980s , had been closed since 1994 when northern militia leader General Abdul Rashid Dostum rebelled against the Kabul government . Witnesses said wrecked tanks and vehicles littered both sides of the heavily-mined road . Mines had been removed from the road itself , but experts of the Halo Trust mine clearance agency said it would take a week to clear the roadsides . Afghan Deputy Prime Minister Qotbuddin Hilal officiated at the reopening ceremony , which was delayed by several hours while the two sides argued about a mutual release of prisoners .

SoCal Edison sees 2 power lines back today . NEW YORK 1996-08-29 Southern California Edison Co said it expected two 220 kilovolt ( KV ) power lines in southern California to resume service later today after being shut late Wednesday because of a wildfire raging north of Los Angeles . " They are expected to be placed in service later today , " said company spokesman Steve Conroy , adding repair crews have been removing smoke and other fire-related residues , which had settled on the two lines . The shutdown of the 220 KV lines reduced by 500 megawatts ( MW ) the amount of power which the area received from SoCal Edison 's 1,200 MW Sierra hydroelectric facility , he said . Conroy noted two 500 KV and another 220 KV line running from the Sierra plant to Los Angeles remained in operation , and continued to carry some of the production from Sierra to the region . On Monday , the two 500 KV transmission cables were taken out of service , also for cleaning , for about a day . Containment of the fire has been difficult because of the hot , arid , windy weather in the region , Conroy said . " The fires keep moving back because of the winds , " he said , forcing the utility to shut those transmission lines for a second time this week . Local authorities charged a teenager for starting the blaze . In four days , the fire destroyed 20,000 acres of forest land . -- R Leong , New York Power Desk +1 212 859 1622

Sierra Semiconductor jumps on exit plan . Martin Wolk SEATTLE 1996-08-29 Sierra Semiconductor Corp jumped 23 percent Thursday on the expectation the company would emerge as a smaller but more profitable operation after its planned exit from the computer modem business . The San Jose , Calif. , company was up 2-1/8 at 11-3/8 after its announcement Wednesday that it planned to pull out of the highly competitive modem-chip business and focus instead on the fast-growing market for computer networking equipment . " Certainly the company will be a much smaller company now , but it will be a more profitable business , " said analyst Elias Moosa of Roberston Stephens & Co . But analysts noted that Sierra still has much painful work ahead of it , including cutting as many as 150 jobs from its workforce , which currently has 500 people , and building up the business of its PMC-Sierra unit , which makes routing devices and chipsets for high-speed computer networks . The company has announced plans to take a charge against earnings of $ 50 million to $ 80 million to write down the value of assets and inventories and cover severance payments . Scott Randall of Soundview Financial Group said the company likely would have difficulty selling its modem-chip business . " Once you announce your intention to exit a business , it becomes a complete buyer 's market , " he said . And he said that while the company is focusing on the fastest-growing part of its business , the market for networking chips has begun to attract the attention of much-larger players such as International Business Machines Corp . " As the market develops the question is , are they able to make that transition to be a much larger company ? " Randall said . Other analysts were more bullish , even though the company is expected to shrink to slightly more than half its current size in sales . " It 's a positive strategic move , " said Miles Kan of Hambrecht & Quist . " The modem business is a low-margin , commodity business , " he said . The company 's PMC-Sierra unit generated $ 33 million of the company 's $ 117 million in sales in the first half of the year , compared with $ 45 million in sales of modem chips , Kan said .

Iran says five spy networks destroyed , 41 held . TEHRAN 1996-08-29 Iranian security forces have broken up five espionage rings in northwestern Iran and arrested 41 people on charges of spying for unnamed countries , a daily newspaper said on Thursday . Jomhuri Eslami quoted the West Azerbaijan province security chief as saying those held confessed to gathering confidential information , photographing strategic sites , doing propaganda against state officials and " spreading pan-Turkism " . It was not clear if they were the same five spy rings , allegedly led by Turkish diplomats , that Iran said in April it had broken up in the same area , which borders Turkey . The April arrests were announced shortly after a row in which Tehran asked Ankara to withdraw four Turkish diplomats accused of spying , and Turkey expelled four Iranian diplomats for their alleged links to killings of Iranian exiles .

Mideast Gulf oil outlook - India holds the key . DUBAI 1996-08-29 India will continue to hold the key to the middle distillates product market in the Middle East Gulf in the short term , traders in the region said on Thursday . They said premiums on high quality jet kerosene have widened to around $ 1 , and are likely to remain strong in the near term . " On the jet kerosene side we must be cautious about quality . Some are commanding a very good premium of 95 cents to one dollar . It 's been 99 cents to Korea . This will stay at this sort of price premium for a while , " one said . " But for normal jet the weakened demand is quite noticeable , the premium is around 45-50 cents . The differential is not normally as wide as this , " he added . Another put the premium for jet kerosene at between 65 and 75 cents . One trader said despite the fact that some kerosene was in storage at Dubai ports , demand looked to exceed supply in the near term . Jet kerosene was assessed at $ 27.40 - $ 27.70 a barrel fob Gulf on Thursday , up from $ 27.22 last week . Dealers expected premiums to stick around current levels for the next two or three weeks , before they get a boost in the second half of September from demand for October cargoes . Gas oil , assessed at $ 24.00 - $ 24.20 a barrel fob Gulf , was little changed on Thursday from last week 's $ 24.10 - $ 24.24 . " On gas oil , in the near term demand and supply are balanced to a bit short , there are some enquiries into east Africa and short covering in India , " said one trader . " The Indians have awarded three cargoes , but the question is whether they will come out for more , " he added . India has acquired 120,000 tonnes of diesel in three cargoes , bound for the west coast , in its October tender . Traders said the award could be India 's lowest in recent years . " After IOC 's very small purchase of 120,000 tonnes , I 'm still suspicious that they will buy more in the second half of October , " another said . But traders see the market remaining tight in the short-term , with some surplus arising closer to October . " I see an overhang of gas oil further out , " one said . " Gas oil will remain tight in the short term up to mid-September with the premium of around $ 1 for 0.5 percent ( sulphur material ) . In the second half of September and October we see the premium coming off to 70-75 cents . " Traders said there was not much demand for one percent sulphur material gas oil , with the premium at 40 to 45 cents .
