'Amounts given in tons unless otherwise des-
gnated.
The statistical returns relating to
the precious metals, which are col
lected by the United States geological
survey, were not ready for print at
the date of the preliminary announce
ment
TEN MILLION INCREASE
A great increase in the substances
other than precious metals is noted.
The amount of such increase is s1O.-
in the unofficial reports of the produc-
tion of gold and silver, which will
swell the returns for 1908 very hand
somely.
The larger items constituting the
total increase for 1908, relate to pc
troleum, gold, macadam. bituminous
rock and pottery clays. There was a
large increase in the quantity of cop
per that was produced I'm 1908 as COM
pared with the output of 1907.
The total value of the nonmetallic
substances was $1.531,19S. These SUBJ
stances include borax, coal, mineral
waters, salt, infusorial earth, gypsum,
magnesite, manganese, mineral paint,
fullers' earth, soda, tourmaline, chry-
soprase and other gems.

and gases was s2s.232.95s. an increase
of s10,203,022. The hydrocarbons and
gases include asphalt, bituminous rock,
natural gas and petroleum. The Pc
troleum price is the average (. o. b.

The number of barrels of oil produced
was 4S .306,910, valued at s26.566, Isl.
as against 40,311.171 barrels in 1907,
valued at sI6,7S3.943. The large pro

The first victory in the fight against
Thomas Prather and the Union national
bank OF Oakland was won by Mary J.
Huff and other plaintiffs when District
Judge Van Fleet overruled the de-
murrer OF Prather Friday in the

Prather will be compelled to account
for the use of the money of the defunct

action to the state courts in Alameda
county.
Mrs. Huff charges Prather with mall
