The ,! report then gives the following stato
mentfiapectlng the results of the business of the
year in the three great staples of the State—coal,
iron hhd: petroleum:
“Measured by quantities Bent to market, no
year hasher, been so productive as the past; and,
judging froin these quantities, no year has ever
added more teethe wealth of the State than the
past. The anthracite-coal sent to market from |
the three great coal fields is 13,6,1,257 tons,
against 12,612,303 tons in 1867, an Increase of
1,161,864 tone, notwithstanding a long suspen
sion of prodhctlQß In the Schuylkill region in
consequence of a strike on tho part of the opera
tives; bbt sb the production of the year be
fore was diminished in about cqud quantity from
the SBme cause in- another region, perhnpß this
may he considered as a chronic and normal afflic
tion ot .thiß tf'ade, and that this increase of 1,000,-
000 to 1,250,000 tons is about the legitimate in
creaseoFthis product, andas nOoVer-pf eduction
or over-stocfolß apparent from the present prices,
it may be taken as a fair conclusion that the con
sumption of the country will absorb fully this in
crease in the future qb in the past,
“If the bituminous fields have been equally pro
ductive, and it is cortain that they have, the total
product of theßtatohasnot been less than 18,000,-
000 tons. The price at the collieries has been-at
least $2 50 per ton. , From this it is seen that
fully $45,000,000 have been distributed among
the producers. Fully an equal amount has been
received within our borders by transporters and
dealers. c sincc'an estimate of w per ton at the
State tide is within the average price of the year.
This product may safely be set down at 00,000,-
000 , „
“But the artiele-of petroleum has transceded
in quantity all estimate and one may almost
say, all bounds. The export has been:
1867. 1868.

New Y0r1:...
Philadelphia
AH other ports
“This statement does not include Detroit and
somo oilier lake points trom which considerable
shipments are made, or California, from which
tb’ the Islands of the Pacific. It
is not unreasonable to suppose, Indeed, it is cer
tain. that these would, If added, close up the full
100,000,000 gallons of export. The prices at Phil
adelphia have ranged from 23}<fc., the lowest, to
34c., about the hienest, for refined. Of the whole
export, about 8 per cent, has been crude, which
has been worth from 11 to 18c. Estimating
front these data, tho export value at port of ship
ment has been fully $27,000,000, in currency,and
were it not that this vaßt and rapidly increasing
production has outrun the consumption, also
enormous ■ and, ’ ihcrcaslng, this article alone
ought to, and would have, at
its real intrinsic value aB compared with any il
luminating substance in existence, been worth
at least 100,000,000 gold dollars. Before petro
leum was discovered, the kerosene oil made trom
bituminous coal, retailing at $1 40 per gallon,
wus faßtsuperceding ail other illuminators. Ifit
should prove in‘tho future that we are exhaust
ing our reservoir of this article, .it will bo a sub
ject of great regret that wo do not now adopt
some means to husband onr resources In the pre
sent. If we had exported but 50.000,000 gallons
the past year, and could by any uaeaDS have re
tained for future use the rest, it is certain that
this moiety would .have realized to uses much
as th e whole has done. >t

1868...
“The domestic consumption added to this ex
port would'show that the world has taken for
consumption not lees than 140,000,000 gallons of
this remarkable product, and a value of over
$37,000,000 In our currency,
“The exact mSEIs tics of Iron production for the
year 1868 cannot yet be quoted. From the re
turns already received by the secretary of the
Iron-ond.Steel Association, no greater increase
over the production ol last year is anticipated
than the Increase of 1867 over 1860.
“The production for 1868 upon this basis
would be:
Of pig iron of all kinds
From the forgos and bloomeries
And of rails.
Manufactured iron in the various forms—
rod, sheet, plate, hoop, nails, etc
“Theeo amounts would indicate a value of not
less than $68,000,000, at the average of prices
current for the year.
Aggregating these values, we have for those
three articles not lees than

quently occur ,as far as, they, arc in their nature
capable of remedy: , ■
A committee appointed by the Board Of Presi
dents of the City Passenger Railways, to co
operate with the Fire Department, in making
some arrangement by which, V during a.fire, the
interruption of travel on the, passenger railways
could be obviated, haye bad- an Interview with
the Chief and a numberpf. Enginoere of tho
varions companies, Who/,were of opinion that if
each company was famished with : a . “Goose
neck" the placing of engines-on railway tracks
could be avoided. .
In order that this desirable objoet may be
reached, the mutual co-operation ol the fire com
pany s must be obtained. The Committee, on
receiving from the various organizations their
approval of this plan, will ask on appropriation
from the Board of Presidents for the purpose of
furnishing each company With the necessary ap
paratus for carrying the object into effect.
The obstruction to travel is/ a serious annoy
ance to strangers, who, going to the depots of
the various steam railway . companies, are oft
times delayed beyond the possibility of, making
tbe train in which they desire' to leave, thereby
creating a clamor against the Fire Department,as

If thie difficulty'can begs easily remedied as
the above proposition would lead us to suppose,
the committee feel confident that they will have
