BY the ayes and noes in the House. The
number of items for appropriations for pub
lie buildings in various loca lities, is largely
increasing in spite Of the opposition Of
washburne Of Illinois, who said there ap-
peared to be a combination Of members
from various localities to increase the ap-
preparations recommended by the Committee.
A motion was made to strike out the appro-
priation for Washington Metropolitan Po-
| lice, which question was under consideration
when the Speaker took the chair and an
nounced that communication would be read
from Kennedy, Superintendent ofthe Metro
politan Police of New York city. 1t made
charges OF such a character that he did not
feel satisfied in Withholding it from the
knowledge OF tho House. The letter was
read. 1t was directed to major Richards,
Superintendent Of the Metropolitan Police,
Washington" as follows:
SIR: l have just been called on by Col.
Shaffner, Pres't Of the United States Blast
ing Oil Co., with the request to look up five
cans Of nitro glycerine which was delivered
on an order from a regular customer, but
which order 10 now pronounced to be for
gerry. The quantity Of oil in the cans was
about l65 pounds, sufficient to blow up the St
Louis House in New York. He feared it
might have beeI obtained in the way it was,
for foul purposes, as he has lately had very
little application by unknown persons for the
purchase of the article, to whom he has re-
fused to sell, owing to their being strangers,
and to whom he would not sell because they
would not explain a satisfactory purpose for
which they wanted it. He informs me that
although it was given on: that the stone walls
Of the Clerkenwell prison were blown down
with gunpowder. the material used was nitro
Rlycerins. give you this information to put
you on your guard. Very respectfully,
JOHN A. KENNEDY,
Superintendent of Police.
There seems to have been some mistake
in the transmission of this dispatch. The
Speaker is reported to have referred to
" charges OF a grave character" while the
read fails to sustain his re-
ported remarks.-ED. ENTERPRISE
When the communication was read some
one exclaimed: "Let us abolish the Metro
politan Police, and see if We will not be blown
up"
