''Do you wish to withdraw your plea Of
guilty and substitute one Of not guilty?'
asked His Honor.
II do" answered Rerdell.
"Under the circumstances" said the
judge, II have no objection to it being done.
The other defendants have been acquitted,
and one man cannot be found guilty of a
conspiracy. Let the plea be entered"
Mr.. Merrick then entered q motion to
nolle pros. Rerdell's case, which the Court
allowed, and Rerdell slipped out Of court.

Suits for Divorce When the Charge
Is Adultery.
Justice James this morning in the Court
in Banc gave an opinion on point raised
in the case of Emily f. Burdette against
Oliver P. Burdette This is suit for di-
vorce brought by tho wife and referred to
an examiner to take tho testimony. Tho
wife was placed on tho stand and about to
testify when the husband objected and the
question of competency was raised and
certified to the chancellor and by him to
the General Term.
His Honor said that the rule was clearly
against the parties to such suits testifying
against each other, when adultery was
charged, but in cases where the charge was
cruelty and there was no other witness to
the act, then such party could be heard.
The examiner would be instructed that the
wife was not competent witness in this
case.

COMMITTEE.
GOLD N SILVER.
Some Interesting Facts Compiled
by the Census Bureau.

Some Interesting Facts Complied
by the Census Bureau.
The second edition Of the compendium
Of the censu will be published in q few
days. From advance sheets 1t appears that
the total production Of gold for the census
year was $50. 600, 66s, and Of silver Sat-
170,s57. The report states that in addition
to the returns received directly from the
miners. there are several minor points to
be included in the total yield. A larger
item than II is usually considered to be 10
the annual handling OF rich specimens.
This Ia not accounted for in the mine pro.
auctions as reported, while 1t 10 impossible
to state tho actual amount absorbed with
any degree OF precision. A careful estimate
would place the value OF gold nuggets and
ore annually added TO the cabinets Of COL
Lotions at not less than $3.50 900, and that
of silver ore at about $780, OO.
This, in view OF q great number Of min
eral collections maintained throughout the
mining territory, il certainly not an over
estimate. There ia quite an extensive
manufacture Of gold quartz into jewelry
and souvenirs, particularly in San Fran
cisco. The value OF the gold 80 absorbed
probably does not fall short OF ST, 900 an
nually. In 1870 the United States Mining
Commissioners estimated the amount Of
gold boarded as specimens or worked up
by local jewellers at $40. 900. The same au-
thority estimated the annual loss Of gold
dust in handling as currency ct $100. 900,
but the practice Of using dust for money
has almost disappeared, and the amount
20 lost 10 o very small. Another in
definite quantity 10 the value Of the pre-.
cious metal lost in melting. hssaying, etc.
A study Of the relation OF production 10
population develops some cnrioua figures.
ranging from N average OF n mill per
capita in Nevada. the intervening series
indicating. with great precision, to what
extent mining is a factor Of wealth. In
several localities the product per square
mile varies from one cent, in the case OF
Alaska, to SIS, $40 in that OF Colorado. the
intermediate average forming another
standard of developed mineral resources,
so far as the precious metals are concerned,
from a different point Of view, roughly
corresponding to that Of the relation Of
production to population.

An ApproprIn.ion souelched.

The Carson Appeal says the Senate re.
fused to allow some one In the capitol
building $50 for hosting the American
flag over the dome. The bill was just
about to pass when some one remarked
that it had not been hoisted for two
weeks, and the appropriation was promptly
squelched. Thus are the peoples interests
guarded up to the handle by men who will
not allow any man to put his hands into
the public treasury unless he sends his
arms in up to his shoulders. The man
ought to have had his bill beaten, and will
Snow enough next time to vociierate for
