The News in Washinrton.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.--When the news
OF the London explosions reached the house
of representatives., the members were dis
posed to doubt the authenticity. On its con-
irmation, however, they eagerly sought such
information as was obtainable.
"This is becoming a serious thing" said
one, land il must receive such attention
and action as its seriousness deserves
Represen ntative Fiuertv sat in the house
him. "Of course, it will be laid to the Irish, :"
he said, "but Nihilists may be in London as
they are in the cities Of Russia.''
One or two members we're disposed to ex-
hibit degree of tmidity and remarked.
''What IL an attempt were made to blow up
the house OF representatives. Would there
be Democratic member leftl Dynamite is
being used too promiscuously in Chicago. 1t
has been found and now its force is felt in
the English parliament, but what can be
done! England should use the most de-
cisivc measures to discover the perpetrators
Of this deed, and should hang any one found
guilty, man or woman"
Senators received the carly news Of the ex-
poslons in London with incredulity. Sew
eral of them sent TO the Associated press Of
fee to make inquiries about IL. Being as
sured that the reports were correct, much
anxiety was displayed to know the details,
and reports as fast as they were received
were sent to the senate, which was in secret
session.
1t is understood the dynamite bill intro.
duced by Senator Elmunds was prepared at
the state department, and OF course before
the tidings OF to-day's explosion reached
Washington. The introduction OF the bill
was, however, undoubtedly FASTENED by the
news from London. The senators in secret
session are reported to have expressed their
dbhorrence Of such crimes in most emphatic
terms.

resolution Ia the senate to-day:
Res1lrgi, That the senate Of the United
States has heard with Indignation aud pro-
found sorrow OF the attempt to destroy the
house of parliament aud other public build
ings in London, and hereby expresses its
horror and detestatiOn of such mon strous
crimes against civilization.
