that whoever agreed to associate with Pin
ter III the gold-making should give it up
after producing &20,0O0.000 worth-a la
0our likely to occupy he thought, about
eighteen months.
CrOss-examined: He had had a large ex-
perIence with gold and minerals. At the con-
CluSlOn OF the experiments there were mere
traces Ofthe black powder left in the cru
clDIe. The prisoner did not say in his pre-
sence that if bars Of gold were cut up in
to pieces the size Of Il sovereign he could
use them.
Mr.. AbrahamS: [ understand that you
kept watch upon the cruciblp. Do You
think that Pinter could have put anything
into it during The operation of melting ?-L
was watching it all the time, but Of course
Icould not say that he did not. He went
to it frequently, and took the lid off once
with his handkerchief.
Was not the resulting nugget made into
a ring by one Of Mr. Streeter's workmen,
and afterwards melted down again?-Yes L
believe it was.
Mr.. Avory: What opinion did you form
Of the experiment ?-I came to 5he conclu-
sion that gold must have been added in some
form or other-perhaps in the black pow
der-tO account for the extra weight.
Did the prisoner tell you how it was that
he was able to go into the room at the Sc
cOnd experiment, while you were NOZZLE
remarked several times that he was more
used TO the smell than we were.
Mr.. Llannay: Did you at any time have
any OF the powder in your hand?-Yes.
Did it strike you as being metallic and
weighty, or like gunpowder?-I should
thinkithat it w%aSiabout as heavy as gunpow-
der, but | did not have a good opportunity
OF cXamining it.
Mr.. Abrahams: Did not Pinter offer Mr..
Streeter some of it to take home with him
ana experiment with ?-Yes; but Mr..
Slreeter deCIin d the offer.
The prisoner was again remauded for "a
week.
