NATURAL GAS PRODUCTION.


Washington. Oct. 23.-The annual
report of the geological survey on
natural gas will show that the total
value of natural gas produced and
marketed in the United States during
the past year was sec, O24, 1873, gain
of nearly S., OOO, 900 over the previous
year. This gain was largely due to
the increased amount of gas produced,
but also, in a measure, to the in
creased price charged consumers. One
of the startling statements which is
included in the report and which Will
be a matter of news to those who are
not familiar with the gas fields is
this:
1t is, unfortunately. true that both of
the great gas-producing fields, large as
they once were, are approaching exhaus-
ton. A large area of the Indiana divi-
sion has yielded up over one-half of the
volume of natural gas once storedLin
it's great reservoir The unjustifiable
waste in all the gas fields has been enor-
nous. all the fields show loss of pressure.
and the old field in northwestern Ohio
is nearly exhausted. That of Indiana
is undergoing a rapid decline.
The value of the output in Kansas
is gradually increasing, and gas is
produced in commercial way in Al
len, Labette, Montgomery, Miami and
Wilson counties. A few good wells
have been found in Franklin county,
but have not been utilized. There
are indications that many other pools
will be found in the future. The gas
is now used in southeastern Kansas
for domestic and manufacturing pur-
poses, and the wells have shown but
slight reduction in pressure. The gas
from Iowa fields is being used extern
siyely in the reduction of zinc ores
raised at Joplin, Mo-, with great sue
cess. Six long reduction works are
established at that place.

New York, Oct. 23.-Maj. Gen. Leon
ard Wood, governor of Cuba, arrived
on the Yucatan, having been sum
monet by telegraph. Before leaving
for Washington> Gen. Wood said:
s'The impending event is the meeting
of the constitutional convention or
November S. The Cubans have five OF
six cases of disputed elections to set

clared, was his policy, for he wants
the Cubans to manage every detail
of their constitution making.

stitution will closely resemble tina

Cubans are friendly in the highest de
gree to the United States, to the ad
ministration, and to the resident rep

LIVES OF CREW iMPERlLED.
United States Monitor Monterey Had
Marrow Escape from Destruction In
the Harbor at Hong Kong.

Hong Kong, Oct. 23.-The United
States monitor Monterey had a mar
row escape from destruction by fire
in the harbor here. The lives of all
the ships company were imperiled in
quelling the flames. Had the fire
reached the loaded magazines the
monitor and her crew would have been
blown to atoms. The fire was in the
store room. When the alarm was
given the crew went to fire quarters
as calmly as though in practice. Hose
was dragged to the storeroom and to
the magazines, although the smoke
was suffocating. Five of the men were
overcome, but were rescued by their
comrades. That part of the magazine
threatened by the flames was flooded
and the flames subdued before extern
sive damage had been done.

Bryan made the first speech of his

the crowd stood in the rain to hear
him. Mr.. Bryan was received with
loud applause. Taking up the full din

the theory that well-supplied table
could meet all the demands of the
working people. Discussing our title
to the Philippines, Mr.. Bryan said
we had had none that was legitimate.
: Forty years ago." he said, ''the re-
publican party was contending that
you cannot buy black man for ST 900;
now they are willing to buy brown
men in job lots at $3.50 piece" He
closed with an appeal to the people
of this country not to further compli-
cate the race question of this coun-
try by adding any more alien people
to our population.

London, Oct. 20.-The Sebastopol

sends details of an alleged plot about
a month ago against the life of EN-
peror Nicholas. It appears that.

czarina began their journey to the
Crimea a student at Moscow univer-
sity, son of a post captain of the
Black sea feet, was arrested for dig,
ging in a suspicious manner in the
vicinity of railway tunnel near Sc
bastopol. The police, after the ar
rest, found a large quantity of ex-

have inevitably wrecked the tunnel
when the imperial train was passing.
The correspondent says there are GER
tain indications that the plot was one
of those concocted by the Bresci group
of anarchists.

F, Twenty-ninth infantry, expired at

The Philippine commission has

Of Filipino testimony concerning the
conduct and policy of the friars. The
statements of the Filipinos go to
show that the friars, under the Span
ish regime, greatly abused their linn
itless political and religious powers
over the community and that this
abuse of authority often led to i'm
morality. All the testimony offered
by the Filipinos shows that they do
not desire the return of the friars
to the parishes.
