baltimore and tho OIL Trade.

There was an informal meeting OF our
oil dealers at the rooms of the Petroleum
Association, this morning for the purpose
of having consultation With John ".
Garrett, Esq, President of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad. with reference 10 the
burgh and Connellsvile Railroad, There
vas quite a large attendance of oil dealers.
Mr.. Garrett WAS unable to be present. but
he was represented by Mr.. G. Il. Blanchard.
the General Freight agent Of the Baltimore
and Ohio road. The meeting was informal
and conversational in its character, and a
change OF opinions was had. Mr. Blsnch-
ard stated that the Connelisville railroad
would be completed within eight months,
and referred TO the advantage that the COM
pietion Of the road would give to that city.
Baltimore would then be thirty miles nearer
by railroad and tide water TO the oil regions
than New York or Philadelphia, and would
consequently be the natural point for ex-
port. He said that every possible facility
wonId be given to the trade, when the road
was finished, for the shipment of oil via
Baltimore. Mr., B. also gave some interest
ing information in regard TO the wharfage
facilities and tonnage of Baltimore, which
was highly satisfactory to the trade.
The interview was u very pleasant one
throughout, and from the manner ia which
the dealers expressed themselves the ipdi-
cations are that Baltimore is the '.coming
city" for the export trade in oil.-Pit;sburgh

The storm of yes terday afternoon made
almost complete wreck of derricks on the
Pierson, Hess, Niagara Wood and other
farms in that vicinity taking them down
as II they. had been SO much chaff. The
damage is qaite heavy, as Iuany Of the der
ricks were connected with pumping wells,
and will have to be. rebuilt Of entirely new
material, being literally. broken into frag-
nepts. We have not learned that any one
~ssinjnred by the falling debris. but engi-
neers met with narrow escapes. On the
flats no injury to pruperIy to speak OF was
done. M -.
N..B.-We are informed that the total
number of derrcks blown down on the
sbovs farms was twenty eight. In addi-
ton.to the above there were several blown

Two refractory individuals from Sham-

ed TO run things accordingly, but instead
raa directly into the arms Of officer Kinney,

morning their identity became fully estab-
