AUTHOR CLIFFORD IRVING and his wife Edith pleaded guilty yesterday to federal and state charges that they conspired to defraud a publisher with a fake autobiography of Howard Hughes. Prosecuting attorneys in turn agreed to drop some other charges against the pair. The Irvings first appeared in federal court where, after plead- ing guilty to conspiracy, the government dismissed a mail fraud charge against them.

Other state charges were dismissed.
