Petroleum and Commerce,

In spite of all the losses in petroleum,
there nre some statistics of the trade that
are well worth noting. 1t represents a
most important national interest, and has
added largely to the national wealth.
Eleven years ago petroleum was unknown
as an article OF utility. Now the total
capital invested in it, at home and abroad
is SlO0, 600, COO of which the American
capital is S70,o00,00 The Mercantile
Journal, TO which We are indebted for
these figures, says that the yield of pc
troleum in December was 10, 214 barrels,
per day, 5000 barrels n day less
than in November). The export of last
year to Europe, in spite of the war that
involved eighty millions of people, was
140, 100000 gallons of refined oil, exclu-
sive of naptha and crude oil. The GEN.
tres OF the refining business are New
York. Pittsburg and Cleveland.

A Bold Bank Robbery.

About O'Clock in the evening, three
men disguised as policemen went into
the Kensington Bank, called out the
watchmen and told them that the bank
was to be robbed that night and that
they had been detailed to remain in the
bank in order to capture the robbers
The watchmen admitted them and were
Immediately overpowered, gagged and
handcuffed The robbers then went to
work, and did not leave the promises till
3 o'clock in the morning. As far as as
certained, about Sos, 900 were stolen,
mostly in coupon Government bonds.
The burglars were very careful, in max
ing their selections of funds, to discard
registered bonds, and to take those they
could dispose of without much chance
of detection The vault of the bank was
so damaged that it could not be opened
the next day, disarranging business con-
