GOVERNMENT RESTS
PriCe-Murphey Case Hangs
on a Motion to Dismiss
1t Is COntended That the Proof Offered
By the United States Is az Variance
With the Indictment.

The government rested late yester-
day afternoon in the case of the United
States against former Surveyor Gen
e-al Hugh II. Price and the defense
moved TO dismiss on the ground that
there was a variance between the
proof and the allegations of the in
dictment The motion is still under
argument which viii be resumed this
n~rning.
There was nothing sensational in the
testimony brought cut yesterday. No
effort was made on the part of the
government to show that t.le money
which the defendants, Mr.. Price and
Mr.. Murphy. had received from MIS-.
Miller for advancing her work in the
office OF the surveyor general beyond
that of work previously entered, had
been retained in whole or in part by
them. Neither was the question as to
whether the work had been done out of
Office hours, raised. The prosecution
confined itself to showing that the de-
PENDANTS had exacted money from Mrs.
Miller beyond the legal degree.
Mrs Miller testified to the fact of
having paid or having sent to Mr..
Murphoy a draft or certificate of d=pc.s-
it for S460 according to an arrangement
by which her work would not have to
await its turn in regular Office hours.
Ii YVES brought out that the work had
rot been actually done for her but for
her IS agent for Macmillan Stein. and
that he had furnished the money which
had been sent to Mr.. Mufphey.
W. \. Clina, who also paid money for
the same purpose. was on the stand.
His appearance had been opposed by
.1.-fe mi no o. n r.
tify for the purpose of showing by
corrobcrative evidence the custom
which prevailed in the office. His pay
ments, too, had been made by check or
draft and Cashier II. J. M'Clung of the
Phoenix National Bank and Cashier
Frank Ainsworth of the Home Savings
Bank were put on to show that the
checks had been cashed upon their en-
dorsement by Mr.. Price. Nothing was
taken for granted by the defense. The
prosecution wss opposed at every
point. George Christ, Jr., the head Of
the mineral department of the survey
CT generals office, was on the stand
several times during the day to present
certain records Of the Office bearing up
on the case and to show the order in
which the various applications fer pat
ents had been presented or filed. More
time ives really taken up with argu
ments upon the numberless points that
arose than was devoted to the actual
testimony.
When the government announced
that it would rest MIR. Bennett fer the
defense moved to dismiss on the
grounds that no odense against the
government had been proved: that the
proof was at variance with the charger
IN the indictment, first in that it al
legged that a certain sum of money had
been paid to Mr.. Price, while the evil
dence showed that no money had been
paid at all and that whatever had been
paid had been paid 10 NJ. Murphey;
second IT had been alleged in the in
dictment that the money had come

A GOOD PROPOSITION.

We own a One-half interest in the

shaft on the property and several shall

silver. averaging close to $4,000 Il ton.
In the bottom of the shaft the ore is
getting richer and increasing in width.

Using partially developed mines in the

Child Slavery In the North.

A great deal has been written of late
about child labor In the South, and
especially by our esteemed Northern
contemporaries. II Is unfortunately q
fact that little children are employed
in some of the Southern cotton mills
who ought to be at school, and who
are being deprived of their childhood.
But in a recent number of McClure's
Magazine Mr.. Francis II. Nichols d.
reefs attention to child labor in a
Northern state, compared with whom
those Of the South enjoy life Of ease
and pleasure. These unhappy little
toilers are in the anthracite region OF
Pennsylvania and number nearly 30
900, OF whom $4,000 are boys who
work for the mining companies, and
the others girls who work in textile
mills established In the mining re-
gion in order to utilize this cheap la
Dor. Thus the population of the min
ing region is becoming more and more
densely ignorant. bitterly hating their
employers, but knowing nothing be-
yond coal mining, and for this reason
absolutely at the mercy of pitiless cor
orations.-Baltimore Sun.

a good text. 1t inspired the minister.
He preached for an hour, and there
was still much for him to say.
But his congregation did not relish
so long sermon. The males, one by

women, as they departed, regarded
one another with scandelized eyes.
But the minister droned on. coming
back again and again to his text.

together and started on tiptoe down

DIDN'T HAVE TO LEARN 1T.
Tammany Senator Knew Nothing
About Hearts, but

Senator George w. Plunkitt Of the
Seventeenth district, New York. finds
few deluded persons occasionally
who try to teach him something.
These people never attempt to repeat
the exr ariment, and for this reason
the Tammany Senator has acquired
reputation for wisdom which even
Senator Grady Is bound to respect. Mr..
Plunkitt became a member OF the leg
islature in 1856, which also explains
to q certain degree the remarkable de-
velopment of his brain.

district relates an experience every
day Of how some foolish-minded per-
son tried to teach him something and
how disastrously the attempt failed.
