The Telegraph instruments in the SEN.
ate Press Gallery Broken and the
Wires Cut.

The messenger who sweeps and cleans the
press rooms and gallery of the Senate discov-
cred, when he commenced work this morning
that,the telegraph instruments had been broke en-
and the Wires cut. There were evidences of
vandalism on every hand. The wires of the
New York Associated Press of the United Press
and of the Baltimore and Ohio telegraph were
cut and the instruments broken up. The glass
front case of the Baltimore and Ohio, which
holds the switchboard, was also demolished,
and the telephone wire of the Associated Press
was cut. The Western Union wires and in
struments were unharmed, presumable be-
cause the miscreants could not get at them
very we'll. The space used by the Western
Union Is enclosed with a high counter, sur
mounted by heavy frame work, with glass
panels, and this enclosure is entered through a
small door set in underneath the counter, and
to pass through it a person has to stOOp low

There were ALI sorts of speculation as to who
did the mischief. The Capitol police say that
when their relief of seven men comes in
every evening at o'clock the building
is thoroughly searched to see that no
body is concealed. They say that po-
licemen are stationed at each door through
the night and none but employees of the Capt.
tol are permitted to enter. Capt. Alabaugh of
the police, says that the building is as thorOug gh
ly patrolled through the night as the small force
of seven men will allow, and that last night
policeman three times visited the press gallery
and looked in, but as it was dark he could not
see the telegraph Instruments, hence he could
not tell when the mischief was done. Today
lock was placed upon the door leading from the
corridor into the press room, and that door will
be kept fastented hereafter at night
Sergeant-at-ArmsC Canaday promptly instituted
an investigation into the matter. He called on
the police for the names of all persons who were
permitted to enter the building last night. The
police who were on duty were able to identify
all but one man who passed in, and they are
looking for him. Mr. Canaday says he intends
to get at the bottom of the mischief If possible,
