PETROLEUM AS FUEL.

AN EMINENT ENGINEER DEMON
sTRATEs THAT AMERICA IS BE
HIND THE TIMES.
Stephen Goulichambaroff, Esq, a
native of Baku, Russia, an eminent
author and civil engineer, arrived in
this country few weeks ago, whence
he came to acquaint himself with the
character and extent of the produc-
ton, transportation and refining OF
petroleum in this country. In letter
to the Petroleum World upon the sub
ject of the uses of petroleum as fuel,
which is one of the most important pa
pers ever published on the subject, he
gives an account of his study and ex-
animation of petroleum and its varl-
Gus applications. In the Caucasus,
Russia, or Baku oil fields, he made
himself thoroughly acqualrted with
the petroleum industry before leaving
which was November 13, 1879, and
published in that and the following
year several works devot d to it, as
for instance the History of Petroleum
and the Application of Petroleum
as Fuel on Locomotive and Marine
Engines.
He came to this country with the
intentions before stated, and express
es himself as surprised to find that To-
comotives, steamers and ferry boats
are using the same kind of fuel as was
used in this country in gopeby times,
while in the far distant East in the
Caucasus, more or less isolated from
civilization, petroleum exclusively has
been and is employed as fuel for loco
motives and steamers for at least 12
years. He further says he is astonish-
ed to see American engineers wasting
their valuable time and labor in trying
to invent some superior mechanical APP
pliances of their own in this line, and
asks: Why not utilize the inventions
and cxuerience of men in foreign pc
troleum producing countries, who have
devoted years of their lives TO the
same purpose and have accomplished
results which during IL years trials
have been unrivaled? The objection
to petroleum as a fuel ON account of
it's easy infiammability and explosive
nature cannot be sustained, since
science has devised remedies which
render its use for that purpose abso-
lutely safe.

A COLORED BROTHERS FALL.

Isaac w. Burton, eolored, a promi-
nent member of the Masonic fraternity,
a pillar in the A. NJ. Il. { hurch, and
a choir singer has fallen from grace.
1t seems that Burton was employed as
general utility man in the clothing es-
Iablishment of John Wanamaker s.
Co, Chestnut street above Eighth,
aud as such managed TO make away
with three suits OF clothes, which he
pawned. His explanation is that as a
Mason he was placed on several com
mittees which nscessitated frequent
visits TO New York, and not having
the wherewithal to pay his expenses
he took the clothing with the inten-
tion of redseming it as soon as possi-
BILE and returning it to the establish
ment without the knowledge of the
proprietors. Saturday Burton was
arrested on a warrant sworn out by
Marion Wanamaker and taken before
Magistrate Smith, who held him in
ST 900 bail for further hearing on
Tuesday next.

instead Of helping to support them,
send on for a city paper, and thus

"a gentleman writes to us that his
county paper is so poor that he has
stopped it; therefore sends us three
dollars for the Trade List. We re-
peat that we do not want subscribers
on these terms. A mans county a
