M. Orth is a son by Mr.. 0rth's first
wife, and BY the terms OF the VIII he

dressed letters TO his stepmother aak-
ing what disposition was to be made with
regard TO himself, aud the answer was ap-
parently unsatisfactory, as he has employed
some Of the best legdl talent In the city.
No papers have yet bern filed, the hope be-
ing that q settlement GOuld be made with
out lawsuit. 1t is alleged that most OF

HARVEST OF PRECIoUs METALS,
Interesting Facts From Director bur
chnrd's Report.

The following is an abstract of the special
report of Mr.. Burchard, director of the mint
upon the production of the precious metals in
the United States, which was ordered to be
printed by tho last Congress, and is now in
the hands of the printer.
The yield of the mines of'the United States
for the year 1882 was 49,, 100000 in gold and
i6,S00,000 In silver, n total of S70,300,000.
Compared with the previous year this
shows decline of $2,200,000 of gold aud an
increase of s., 100000 Of silver
The comparative decline in tho production
of gold was greater in California than in any
other state or territory, the yield being ST.
100000 less than in 1881. This resulted from
the interruption of hydraulic mining in
some of the northern and middle counties Of
the state owing TO litigation and also from a
falling off in the production of the quartz
mines at Bodie. In Oregon, where the min.
ing Ia chiefly placer, there was diminution,
and also in Nevada, Idaho and Dakota.
In silver the principal increase was in
Idaho, Montana, and New Mexico, Idaho
showing an increase of 100000, Montana
$l,740,000, and New Moxico Of $l,500,0OO.
Colorado furnished about 100000 less silver
than in 1881.
OF the bullion production of the country
$30,06t,0 Of gold and $3l ,d00702 Of silver
were deposited at tho mints and assay offices
for coinage or return in bars to depositors.
Of the deposits Of gold S5,600,000 were paid
in bars for manufacturing purposes and the
remainder went into coinage, 81 100000 were
furnished by private refneries for msnufac-
turers use, and there was an export Of $175, 900
contained in silver bars.
Of the total silver production $15,750, 900
were exported, $5,904,OO0 furnished by the
mints and assay offices TO manufacturers,
$350000 by private refneries for the same
purpose, and S24,700,000 were used in coinage.
The production of the country was from the
states and territories as follows

He Is Entirely Satisfied with tho Returns.
Hon. ]. II, Riddleberger, senator elect from
Virginia, who was in the city ON Saturday, was
interviewed concerning the recent elections in
that state. The lessons the elections have
taught him Is very different from that
preached by Mr.. Dezendorf through the
columns of the bourbon newspapers and their
alleged republican allies. Mr. Riddleberger
does not consider the elections a readjuster
defeat by any manner of means. He says:
THE noise created by the bourhons of the
state, and their loud expressions of conf
dence, arc part Of programme, which in
cludes great deal of Misrepresentation
of Malone as boss determination
10 retard all the plans for the improve
ment of the black people Of Virginia, and
the cultivation Of a hostile feeling in the
north against tho entire liberal movement in
the state, All talk about the recent election
as readjuster defeat is brag, and has no
foundation in the results as ascertained. That
il was not q defeat is shown by the fact that
we have carried fifteen more counties than
we have ever carried before in spring cleo
tion. 1t is true that we have lost four coun-
ties-Nansemond, Southampton, Norfolk, and
Princess Anne--but the very contest made in
those counties strengthened US in others and
the returns show that, while the readjusters
may have lost in the counties some OF the me-
gro vote, they have gained enormously in
parts of the state where tho white vote is
large and where the bourbons have always
been very strong
~ soc" he added, "that tho bourbons are
making u great boast Of the fact that they
have carried Halifax and Pittsylvania coun-
ties The fact is, they have always carried
them, and the loud boasts made betray a
degree Of tho astonishment because they did
not lose them. Tho valley country and the
southwest, the tenth legion, stood by us
well, almost every precinct from Staunton to
Winchester having elected TeadjusteT candi-
dates. In Frederick, which last year gave
the bnpEbons ZOO InAjority, they got less than

100 majority. In Warren, whore there was

The roadjustors will not hold state con.
vention, he says, inasmuch as there are no
state officers to be nominated. Mr.. Riddle.
berger docs not believe it will be possible for
the bourbons to make combinations which
will give them control of the legislature.
