GOVERNOR PATTISoN
Gives Some sound Advice 10 the Legs.
lature.


HARRISBURG, Pa, February Ex-Governor
Pattison sent a message to the legislature
to-day, calling the attention OF that body
to many important subjects calling for
legislative action during the present ses-
sion. The Governor recommends the abo-
lition Of the Office of Recorder. Attention
is next called to the charters granted by
legislature years ago which have never been
used, and are now being hawked about
through the State and the United States
for sale. One of the greatest scandals our
political history ever knew was that the
Credit Mobilier was made possible by this
condition of affairs and that great blot up
on the national house had its origin in the
purchase of Pennsylvania act OF incor-
poration. These charters should lapse to
the State for non uses, but at all events the
Attorney General will, at the first oppor.
tunity, make a test case for the courts to
determine. Meanwhile the Legislature
should enact some law revoking all such
franchises wherever bona fide organization
has not been effected. The message
concludes with the recommends
ton that the Legislature take steps
To Enfernc the Constitution
with regard to giving equal rights to all in
dividuals and associations upon railroads
and canals without -discrimiRstieas- IN
charges or facilities as to the persons and
places. The Constitution now prohibits
the consolidation of the stock and property
or forecloSes OF competing companies; pro-
vides that common carriers shall not en-.
gage in any business other than that OF
common carrying; seeks to prevent officers
Of corporations from profiting corruptly by
unfair. preferences in furnishing cars or
motive power, by drawback or otherwise,
and forbids issuing Office passes to any
person other than TO officer or employe.
The Governor sincerely recommends that
bill be passed to give full effect to these
sections of the Constitution. :

tense of going to WellstOn, in this county,

which when presented to the alleged draw

WASHINGTON, February 6.-First Comp
trOller of the Treasury Lawrence, who IS
known to be thoroughly acquainted with
the situation in regard to the Virginia mil
itary land titles in Ohio. was asked to- day
what effect the decision OF the Secretary Of
the Interior, in Jere Halls case, had upon
the rest of the lands. Judge Lawrence
said:
The decision saves from further trouble
from eighty to one hundred thousand acres
or about 500 farms. There are yet about
30 coo acres, the title to which could be dis
turbed. provided the heirs OF the original
revolutionary soldiers are found. There
are but few of these, however, and IL IS TO
such remaining cases that Gen. Robinson's
bill, now pending in Congress, applies; Its
passage is necessary in order to give abso-
lutte and final security.

PITTSBURGH. February Ga member OF

He declares that as he is a corpse it would
not be proper to eat anything, and his ply

and beef tea between his clenched teeth TO
keep him from starving.
This will recall to many old citizens the
strange fancy OF a gentleman who was the

WELLsvILLE, o., February G.-Smith's
Ferry, the thriving little oil town eight
miles above here. was visited by disas
trous conhagration yesterday, which, for
several hours, threatened the entire de-
struction of the extensive oil interest OF
the place.
The origin of the fire, from obtainable
information, was as follows: Early in the
morning McGimpsey & Co. set a large force
of men at work pumping benzine into a
still to prevent its being carried away by
the rapidly rising river. BY
some means a portion OF the
inllammable material flowed into the fur
nace-reom and Immediately ignited. rhe
flames were then communicated TO the
benzine still, which soon after exploded,
with a deafening report, scattering the
burning fluid in every direction, and in
the immediate vicinity of some fifteen
tanks containing large quantities OF oil.
One after another, as the devouring ele
ment reached them, they exploded, with
Terrific Reports,
which were distinctly heard here. The
space occupied by McGimpsey, between
the railroad and river, was now a literal
sea OF burning oil many feet deep IN some
places, which sent thick, black smoke and
fiery tongues of flame a hundred feet

to assume a serious aspect, and as the town
has no organized system of

fears were entertained that the extensive
works OF Timmons IL Co. adjoining would
be the next to secumb, which would un-
don bte6ly result in the entire destruction
of the town. This further calamity, how
ever was happily averted by the almost
Superhuman efforts of a large body OF men,
who bravely fought back the iiend in the
face OF an almost uncomfortable heat and
confined the flames to the McGimpSey
property. Besides the tanks, about three
hundred barrels OF carbon and the same
number of fine lubricating oil were con-
sumed
