A special meeting ot , the rittiburgh
Petroleum ABBoelatiMi Wile's2teld St VP
root di of the Association, No. 4 Dalzell's
building, corner ;Of, Duaguille:War and
Irwin street, yesterday.(Wedtfeado), at
ten o'clock, A. at: , _
The meeting was called to order by the
President, Mr. Hutchinson,_ who dated
the object to be the consideration of a bill
offered in the House of Representatives
by Mr. Moorhead, entitled "a bill to pro
.
vide for the better security of life and
property from the dangers of coal oil,
crude petroleum and their products, and
for other purposes." , ,
The Secretary then read the bill, after
which its provisions were ably,discussed.
A letter from General. Moorhead ex
planatory of the bill. was read by the
President. -
Mr Long thought the association
should give some expression of their
views in regard to the bill, which he
said was a method to carry out the views
ot General Moorhead relative to petro
leum, which he held would bear a tax,
and he now took this meani of imposing
a tax upon the manufacturers and re
finers.
Major Frew said the bill was simply a
big job to make money fora few inspec
tors; that it had, been sprung upon the
trade at this time with the hope of run
ning it through Congress under the ex
citement and clamor for the protection
of life against the`dangers of petroleum:
The bill, he said, was defective and failed
to meet the object expressed in its title.
The whole thing bears On faclithe'ev
deuce of fraud. The hill proposed by
•ier.eral Moorhead wilLaccomplish noth
ing except to make money 'for' dfew in
spectors and speculators.
Mr. Long stated that for the informa
tion of the trade he. would ambmit the
following figures: The tax on exported
oil during the past year he said under
the bill proposed by Gen. Moorhead
would amount to $375,000 en relined, and
5578,000 on trade oil, amounting to 5950,-
000; which mould go into 'the hands of
inspectors. •
Mr. Long moved that a Committee of
three be appointed to draft resolutions
expressive of the sense of this meeting
on the subject of Gen. Moortiead's bill.
The motion was adopted, and the Chair
appointed Messrs. Long, Frew . and War
den.
The. Chair stated that the matter of
railroad freights was a very important
one, endue the Chair was. instructed to
appoint- a Railroad Committee he an
nounceilthe following named gentlemen
as comprising the Cmmittee: Messrs.
Forsythe, Lockhart, Long, Waring and
Logan. .
The following gentlemen were ap
pointed on the Committee to prepare a
standard bacrel for the trade; Messrs.
Davis, McKee and Stockditle.
On motion. Messrs. Stewart .and Goe,
of the Columbia Oil. CotaPanv, were
elected members of the Ai&ciation.
On motion of Maj. Frew, Mr. Stewart
was added to the,Committeeon Railroad
Freights. and the President, Mr. Hutch
inson, conatitued Chairman ex-officio.
On motion, the Association adjourned
to meet at three o'clock P. AL.

AFTER:4OON 6E135.10‘.
The Assocon met at three o'clock,

to order by the President, Mr. Ilutohin-
sun.
The Secretary read the 'minutes of the
Previous meeting, and they were ap
proved.
The Committee appointed at the morn
ing" session to draft resolutions expres
sive of the sews of the Association rela
tive to the bill offered in the House of
Representatives, through its Chairman,
Mr. Long, submitted the following :
Wastusas, A bill hall been presented
in the House of Representatives by Hon.
J. K. Moorhead, of this district, ostensi

ing as it does the principal oil refining

at least of consultation, before it - bill of
such magnitude should:-be 'cormileted.
And having carefully examined the pro
visions of this bill, therefore
Resolved, That the 'Association deci
dedly disapprove the course of our rep

Resolved, That in the opinion of this
Associa h
tion te bill _will utterly fail in
effecting the objeot desired, as the adul
teration of refined oils rarely takes place
until it is found in the hands of the re.
toilers. • " ip>
Resolved, That the inspection of crude
oils is totally unnecessary. and of no ad
vantage to the public whatever, simply
placing a heavy bUrden .0n a legitimate
mining business that a million of dollars
or more may be divided amongst a cer.
tain class of office-holders.
Resolved, That the bill is an abortion,
that it providea for the manufacture and
sale of low grade, dangerous oils
trifling increase of the tax; Whereas, its
sale below a safe standard should be
prohibited.
.Rezoteed, That we recommend the re
newel by Congress of the 'law prohibit

ury Department, who " shall visit all

Rem/tied, That it Is wholly 1213ileissary
to subject oil intended tbr export to the
expense of inspection,. when said oil is
compelled to conform . . p,r the, letzra,An4
regulations of foreign countries.
Resolved,'iThat the. off trade stands
ready, as it has ,always stood. to ;Mond
'any honest efforts of emr !representative s
to atothe sale of, eploaive oils,

trouble is not with thertianufactUrer• latin
'with dishonest dealers. X. 40

Resolved, That in 'our judgment- the
majority of accidents arising from the
use of carbon oil are. not cauSedtly the
inferiority of the oil, but careiessness on
the part of those using them,and that
the recent casualty referred to in Con
gress would have been occasioned by any
other oils or spirite.
The report of the Committee was re.,

Suicide In Shafer Township—lnquisition
—The Verdict.
The body of Catharine Reamer, a
young girl, was found hanging to a tree
in the woods near Bennett's station, Sha
ler township; Tuesday mortrlng. Justice
Elsesser, of that township, held an in
quest on the body Tuesday afternoon ,
and it appears from the testimony ad
duced that the deceased was a stranger
in that locality, and was first seen in the
neighborhood 'the day after Christmas.
On that day she called at one or two
houses and asked for work. Among
other places, she called at the house of
Mr. De Haven, and he ' out of charity,
permitted her to stay in his family. She
remained thereuntil the Bth of January.
showing, in the meantime, a very weak
mind indeed. At the time mentioned,
the family learned that Mr. Hieber de
sired a girl to do kitchen work. Ac
cordingly Miss Jennie De Haven went
with Catharine a part of the way to Mr.
Hieber's, and showed her the _house,
when she left her. It appears that Cath
arine did not go to the place mentioned
at.all, and nothing further was seen of
her until she was found yesterday, as
stated. Samuel Campbell discovered the
body as he was going to his work. She
was hanging from the limb of a tree,ans
pended by a small shawl. Mr. Camp
bell summoned other men, and they sent
for Justice Elsesser, leaving the body,
meanwhile, hanging as it had been
found. It was evident it had been hang
ing there for several daye, and the prob
ability is that the girl, instead of going
to the house she bad started for, went
directly to the woods and committed the
f fatal act. ...
The jury found that the girl •came to
her death by suicide, and the following is
I the verdict ae recorded by the justice:

iting the Island of St. Croix for their
health, experienced and.witnessed many
surprising and , beneficial effects of the
rum there produced upon many Of the
invalids who were, like ourselves, 4eek
ing health, and upon inquiry and inves
tigation, obtained a full history of its
medicinal virtues. He was delighted
and surprised, and determined to make
itthe basis of a Tonic and . Bealorative
Medicine. The result of his labors was.
a glorious success for himself and suffer
ing humanity. The celebrated Pi slcrs-

the world. Being an article of real merit,
founded on new principles, and relying

its medicinal effects, it worked a rapid
revolution in the treatment of physical
debility. •
