It is a curious fact that of the of- fcers of high rank in the Rebellion there are more Confederates than Un- ionists alive to-day The surviving Union officers who held the rank of Major General comprise O.

The fact, however, that more Confederates of the higher grade are living than members of that rank among the armies of the gov ernment is strange enough to attract

Herr Bebel is himself a wealthy

Fairmont, W. Va, Jan. 16.-Late
Wednesday afternoon the coroner's
jury returned it's verdict in connec-
ton with the investigation Of the
Monongah mine disaster. It finds that
the explosion was due to either a
blown-out shot or to ignition of pow
der which in turn ignited the gas in
the mine.
1t finds that there were traces OF
gas in mines Nos. 6 and 8 but not in
dangerous quantities; that the COM
pany complied with all the state regu-
lations and took all reasonable pre-
cautions, such as sprinkling for the
keeping down of the coal dust, and
practically exonerates the coal COM

MONSTER OIL eusHER AT BAkU.
Well Discovered That Flows at Rate
of I 1000 Barrels a Day.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 16.-Oil-pro-
ducing firms here Wednesday received
news from the Caucasus of the open
ing Of a mammoth oil gusher in the
Bibi-Eybat field at Baku, flowing at
the rate of 100000 barrels a day. It
far surpasses any other we'll in the
Baku region and, unlike the new
gusher opened at Surakhant in De-
cember, which gives 10000 barrels
daily, the new gusher was discovered
in an already exploited field. OIL
shares jumped three per cent. on the
market here on account of the new
discovery.
