Durrant Case to Go to the Jury
Thursday or Friday.
DEUPREYTo MAKE AN ARGUMENT
District Attorney Barnes to Close -The
Judge Preparing His Charge
to the Jury.

San Francisco, Oct. 2s.-The Durrant
case is nearing its close. and VIII prob
ably go 70 the jury next Thursday or Fri
day. Attorney Dickinson will probably
complete his argument Tuesday morning,
and If possible Eugene y. Deuprey will
take up the afternoon OF that day with an
address 10 the jury. District attorney
Barnes expects II begin his argument on
Wednesday morning. and 10 complete it
on that day. Judge Murphy's charge viii
be long and exhaustive. His honor has
spent several days and nights working on
II. and the result viii be the effort of MS
life His rulings have been conservative
and fair during the trial, and, though the
records contain many exceptions, they
are upon no vital points.
How long the jury will take TO reach
a conclusion is problematical. The eX-
hibi1s are numerous. and in some cases
VIII require a good deal of study This Is
particularly so as . the notes or DurTant

INCREASED GOLD PODUCT.
Yield OF All the Fields Is Larger Than
ENer Before.


Washington City, Oct 2s-R. +. Pres
ton. director of the mint in discussing his
report on the worlds production Of gold
and silver in 1894, makes the following
statement: 81 am satisfied that the gold
product Of the world Will not be less than
$500 900, 900 for the calendar year 1895. which
will be an increase of $40, 600. 900 over 1894.
OF this increase the United States Will
contribute not less than 1900 900. Colora-
do will furnish from s., 800 goo 10 $4,000 900;
California $1,000. 900. and Arizona. New
Mexico, Idaho and Montana VIII make
handsome showings In Colorado the prin-
cipal increase will come from the Cripple
Creek dictrict This district altogether
VII produce sl5.000000 this year. 1T re-
CURED some time 10 convince capitalists
that this was a wonderfully rich district.
The shipments OF rich ore made in the last
year have removed all doubt about the
future Of the Cripple Creek country. Lead
vile Will also show an increase In the out
put OF gold Some Of the mines in this
region are very productive. In the Lead
Vile region there are found gold, silver.
copper lead and iron. There is a general
revival OF gold mining throughout this
region. California mines are certain 10
show an increased output from this time
forward. The establishment of the debris
commission in California has given great
impetus TO hydraulic mining which is ex-
ceedingly profitable.
Where there is placing mining particu-
larly In Montana and Idaho the product
Of gold will not De so great as II would
have been had there been heavy SHOWS in
the mountains There IS a shortage Of wa
ter in those states. which serves TO haudi
can the miners. The returns from quartz
mining there are very satisfactory. Some
heavy shipments OF ore are being made
from Helena. Everywhere 7 went in the
mining regions OF the West ] saw evil
dences Of great activity and prosperity.
Not alone in thu United States Is the
output OF gold increasing. South Africa
has gone ahead Of Australia in the amount
Of its gold products. and VIII produce this
year a vast quantity Of the precious me-
tai. Australia probably Will contribute
81 600 GOO or s. 01a0o OF the increase. Rus
STA vii produce from g, eo0,oro 10 $2.0e0 900
more than II did last year. Russ,a's out
nut last year fell of. but the increase In
Siberia this year will be marked. judging
from the information have received from
our minister at ~. Petersburg. Mexico,
which contributed $4,000 in gold last
wear. Win make a far better showing this
wear. We gained last year for the gold
stock 81 the world 100000 OF gold form
erlv boarded IN India. and We have every
reason 10 lock for an increase this year.

continent, and have been making a close
study of methods and processes. Another
delegation will soon go to America to in
spect machinery. and ascertain II it be
true that the output is so much larger
there than in England, even when the
same rolling mill engines are employed.
To the vast increase in the export trade
in every branch except iron and steel is
added the enormous sum expended in Eu-
rope and mainly in England by 100000
travellers this year. writer in the Daily
Telegraph makes the amount spent by the
average tourist from $500 10 $1,000, which
does not seem too high, when tailors and
dressmakers' bills are taken into account.
This runs up the total of tourists expen-
ses TO 500 900 or $500 coo, 900. With the
United States buying imports heavily I'M
der the new tariff and spending lavishlv
in Europe on vacation Journeys, IL is not
strange that the exchange runs heavily
against ii, and that gold has to be ex-
ported &c. pay debts.

THE BALDWIN'S METHODS.
Lawrence Did Not Give Satisfactory
Explanation of Them.

Lawrence, the eXposer of the methods
employed by spiritualistic humbugs,
entertained a small audience at the
Academy of Music last night
He explained the manner in which
water Is changed into wine, how the
spirit pipes are operated, tables made
to float in the air, and after doing all
the tricks usually performed in spiritu-
alistic cabinets, he showed the manner
in which they We're done.
Then he gave what he alleges is a
complete exposure of the methods en-
ployed by the BaldWins. He said that
agents who come to the city in advance
secure some of the information for the
Baldwins and that confederates in the
audience do the rest. The deaf and
dumb alphabet is used to telegraph in
formation to Mrs. Baldwin from the
auditorium to the stage. Lawrence
may have the right idea with regard to
portion of the system employed by the
Baldwins, but it is evident that he has
not got the germ of it. His exposure
was not at all satisfactory to his au-
dience last night.

inform him that $4,000 has been depos-
tied in local bank by his aunt, Mrs.
Mary McFern, of Omaha, and is to be
paid to Mr.. Howell, one year after her
death
1t appears that Mrs. McFern was
spending the summer recently at the
Delaware Water Gap, and met Mr..
Howell, who was guest at the same
hotel. who very favorably impressed
Mrs. McFern by his refined conversa-
ton and intellectual abilities. Mr..
Howell, who at the time was a travel
ing salesman, deplored his inability to
enter the ministry owing to lack of
funds. His friend Immediately made n
generous offer of assistance which he
modestly refused to accept, and few
days later she left for her home in
Omaha. Such an impression had, how
ever, been made upon her that she re-
solved to deposit $1,000 in the bank for
the purpose mentioned. Mrs. McFern
Is "a widow and has no family, and the
gentleman she is anxious to assist is
presumed to be living at Providence,
and has retired from business as a
travelling salesman and now works as
carpenter.
