SENATOR WALLACE, for his Demo.
cratic colleagues in the Senate, and the
Philadelphia Times, for the press which
has been interested in the absolute re-
peal of the recorders bill of 1878, do SIM
pie justice to the perseverance, intre,
pidity and parliamentary skill which
characterized the management of the
fgh. to that end by Senator Kennedy.
When the experienced and astute Re
publican Senator Cooper taunted him
for parliamentary blundering he woke
up the wrong passenger. Kennedy
found the way out for his party and his
Cause and yesterday had his meritet
reward in seeing the whole Senate fall
into line in behalf of the unconditional
repeal, while the rel plume of the Re.
publican leader was bedraggled in the
mire of defeat with dishOnOr. In !,

that they have recovered their wits and

came from the Senate, by a nearly unan.

THE loss of oil by fire and of
other property from coal oil fires
in this state during the last twenty
years has been very great in con-
Hagrations occurring from accidents
to railroad trains carrying oil in tanks.
In this locality several such, of alarming
proportions, have occurred, and nothing
more dangerous than this method of
transporting Oil can be conceived Of.
Manifestly if farms and city property are
to he protected from the dangers to
which they are constantly subjected by
these magazines Oh wheels the state and
the community should eagerly encour-
age the cheap, noiseless, inoffensive and
innocuous method of transporting oil in
the underground pipes, in which is the
greatest possible protection to life and
property.

A FREE PIPE LINE.
LAKGE MEETINGIN TnE COURT HOUSE

Speeches OF Senators Leo and Emery-The
Bal xpiained-and tine standard
Oil Company Arraigned.
There was a large assemblage in the
court house last night to hear Senators
Lee and Emery discuss the merits Of the
free pipe line bill now pending in the state
Legislature. The audience was composed
of the most substantial business men and
farmers of Lancaster city and county, aud
that they almost unanimously agreed with
the sentiments of the speakers was
evinced by the frequent applause given
them as the more telling points of their
speeches were presented.
On the platform in the bar of the court
room was placed large map of Pennsy.-
vania and adjacent parts of New York
Maryland, Delaware and Ohio, on which
were drawn in heavy red lines the routes
obtained and 10 be obtained by the Stand
ard oil company to convey oil from the oil
regions to their refneries in Buffalo,
Cleveland, New York and Baltimore.
These lines form a Gordon completely
around the oil producing country. and
give the Standard company an exclusive
right of way in so many directions, that
it is impossible for any competing
company to get either to the oil
we'll or to build competing line to the
seaboard.
the meeting was called to order by E.
X. Martin. esq, who introduced to the
meeting State Senator Lee, Of Vonango
county.

The .' Black N aria " foam ON tao Rampage.
This morning as the prison van. yclept
tho Black Maria" was bringing q pris-
Oner from tho Jail to the court the bolt
that connects the pole to the body Of the
vehicle dropped out. This scared tho
horses, and with the pole, double tree and
single tree hanging to them they ran furi
ously down East King street. The acci
don't happened between Lima and Shippen
streets and the horses kept the middle OF
East King street fox more than a
square, when they ran upon the side
walk or the south side of the
street until they reached Demuth's
cigar store where ono of the horses fell
and pulled the other with him. Reuben
killinger seized them and kept them from
running further. The horses belong to
Mr.. Powell, the liveryman. One of them
is very seriously injured-One fore leg and
both hind legs being much cut aud bruis-
cd, and the horse is 80 badly lamed that it
can hardly stand.

Passed at Last.

The great contest over the recorder
bill has at last closed with the unani-
nous passage of the bill in the Senate
and its adoption 10y a heavy majority in
the House. The fight against it was
Stubborn, land it is surprising to find that
at its conclusion there was SO much
unanimity of sentiment us to it. The
senators who have given it their reluc-
tant votes have hardly explained very
satisfactorily why they were so slow to
comprehend the propriety of its
passage. They had good deal
to say to show why they talked
one way and finally voted another,
but their explanations are not very in
tslligible. Perhaps they voted for the
bill, finding that it was going to pass
anyway, to preserve the consistency of
their declarations that they were for it
while they were seeking to load it with
amendments that would have been the
death of it. Strange things have been
said and done in the course Of the action
upon the measure. not the least remark
able of which was the conduct of the
House in refusing to concur in the
Senate's action yesterday, but yielding
its hearty assent to day. The enemies
of the bill appear to have been inclined
to make last essay to defeat it by
fraudulent representations to its friends
in the House an undertaking which,
however, was speedily defeated by the
grossness of the deceit. A bill of com
paratively small consequence aroused a
remarkable degree of feeling before it
was finally disposed of faright. We trust
that the other more important issues he.
fore the Legislature will be as success.
fully disposed of.

Only One Side to Ii.

The interested audience of the seDa-
tors who discussed the pipe line question
in this city received abundant informa-
tion to warrant their approval of the
legislation proposed to secure free COM
petition in the trade in this great product
of our state. There is absolutely nothing
of any value TO be urged against the
proposal to give the free right of way to
oil pipe lines in the manner proposed by
the law. The restrictions imposed are
such as to fully protect the interest of
the land owners and the community,
and sufficient reason exists for the
transportation Of oil in pipes rather than
on railroads in the greater cbeapness of
this method OF carriage. The cry that
there is danger to he feared from the
bursting or leaking of pipes has no sub
stantial foundation. There is probably
far less danger from the transportation
of oil in pipes under ground than there is
in its carriage upon railroads. There
are manifest dangers in railway trans
portation which do not exist in the
flowing pipes. We all know that it is
not uncommon for collisions of trains
and other accidents to cause the leak
age of tanks and the disastrous confla-
grafton of this product. From such dan
gers, at least, pipe lines are free and
while it is possible Chat there may be
leakage and bursting of pipes, danger
from them is at least as readily guarded
against as that from the burning oil
tanks of railroads. The question has
but one side, as those who heard the
senators discussion doubtless have made
up their minds.

THURSDAY EVENING. APRIL 10. 1888.
The HeiIig Case.

Judge Patterson has called upon us
to say that in the Heilig matter he act.
ed in the usual course in discharging
the prisoner upon the statement of the
district attorney that he had examined
the case, and found no evidence upon
which to ask conviction that day or
two afterwards the district attorney In
formed him that he had made mis-
take and that he had found sufficient
evidence to convict Heilig and
asked for a bench warrant for his
arrest, which was granted. Judge
Patterson says that he had no
reason to know that Mr.. Davis lad will
fully misrepresented the matter to him
to secure the discharge of Heilig. The
Judge was reminded that the 1NTELLI-
GENCER had declared that Mr.. Davis
had stated in this office that in saying
to him that there was no evidence against
Heileg he had acted entirely On informa
tion from the prisoners counsel, and
that he thought he was right in
accepting such a statement from any
reputable member of the bar, though be
was counsel for the prisoner. Judge
Patterson said that Mr.. Davis had not
told him that such was the source of his
information. He did not think Davis was
warranted in making the statement to
him that he did, upon the statement OF
the prisoners counsel and that if this
was stated to him in court he would
have ground upon which to ask al ex-
planatiOn from the district attorney
and that it seemed to be such case as
the bar association had been formed to
take cognizance of and call TO the atten,
tion of the court. We understand from
the judge that he is ready to consider
any representations on the matter which
the bar association is disposed to make.
Judge Patterson thinks that he is not
bound to take such notice of news
paper statement as he should accord to
one made him from the bar {; which may
be true generally but in this case the
matter is one between the judge himself
and an officer of his court who has secured
his action by Misrepresentation. As
the matter is now fully brought to the
judges knowledge, the question for hin
to consider is us to whether he should
permit Misrepresentation to him by
the district attorney, which has secured
the defeat of justice, to pass unnoticcd

Kennedy's NOd6iES Plume.


1t is worthy of note that the youngest
of all the senators has most gallantly and
skilfully led the battle for the repeal of
the recorder act. Senator Kennedy has
exhibited his pluck on moro than ono &C
casion, but never did he display his qali-
ties to the same advantage as in this
contest. Even the veteran leader, Wallace
paid most graceful tribute to the young
leader, when he said that his party had
followed the nodding plume of the
youngest senator on the floor" When
weak men were in doubt and whispered
of compromise. Kennedy gave the order
to advance, and he has won the most
creditable parliamentary achievement OF
the session. The recorder act of 1873 is
dead. 1t never deserved to have been
born, but it could have been made useful
had not tho temptation to subordinate
usefulness to plunder prevailed, and now
it dies by the suicidal greed Of its wor-
shippers.
