Is broader, his swallow tailed coat more

Senate Executive Session. /

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-Fira was discov.
cred this morning in a lot Of books and
records stored under the roof of the House.
Representatives and flremen cut away tho
wood and soon extinguished tho fire,
which was confined to place less than
twenty feet square.
The first discovery that tho fire was in
progress was that few large sparks were
seen to fall upon the floor Of tic House
from the roof above, which in moment
increased to quite shower. The few
Representatives in the hall and officers
and pages rushed for the doors, and for a
moment they seemed TO expect an expo
zion and see repetition OF Saturdays
scene in the British House OF Parliament.
There was no water and no way OF get
ting at the fire except up the steps Of q
narrow iron staircase running three sto-
ries, upon which two men cannot pass
each other. After some delay buck
cts of water were passed up and what
came dangerously near being q serious
conuagration was arrested.
In the room TO which the fire was con-
fined were stored the records OF the first
session of Congress with all the original
reports of the committees, OF the pro-
ceedings of the House and reports OF the
various heads Of Departments, including
some valuable reports dated 100. The
close proximity OF the fire to these vol
umes rendered it most miraculous they
were not burned. They could never have
been replaced and their loss would have
been great misfortune.
Members OF Congress expressed surprise
and uneasiness that there should be such

srgwARr,s FATE
A Cause of Anxiety IN London--No News

LONDON, Jan 28.-Intense anxiety is
felt for the fate of General Stewart.
Alarming rumors arc flying about the
city concerning the fate OF the brave fel-
lows who fought at Abu Klea wells and
then disappeared in the desert beyond.
Apprehension that a serious disaster oc-
Cured is gaining ground. Tho transport
Decean has been ordered in readiness to
convey regiment to Malta, and from
there to Egypt II occasion requires. A
dispatch from Alexandria to the Exchange
Telegraph Company says that General
Wolseley sent reinlorcements from korti
to Stewart, and lie himself is about to
press forward.
Tie War office has made public the con.
tents Of dispatch received this afternoon
from General Wolselcy at Korti. He
says he has not yet received any further
news from General Stewart. He assures
the Government in his opinion that there
is no cause for anxiety in this long alb.
seHCc Of intelligence. The FIRST news OF
the battle at Abu Klea, which was re-
ceived at Korti, four days after the fight,
brought in by Bashi Bazouks. The last of
these who were following Stewards army
were left in the little band that carried the
story Of the fight across the desert. No

Arabs has yet reached Korti. Whatever

It Was Dynamite.

LONDON. Jan. 2g.--Theexperts examine
ton Of the locality Of the tiisasterin the
Parliament Building, reached a conclusion
after tracing the progress Of tho debris,
that the explosion occurred in the passage
leading from the AYE division lobby" to
the seats in the southwest chamber
ususlly occupied by the Public Secretary.
The parcel containing dynamite was
placed few feet beyond thu barriers at
the entrance OF the House Of Commons,
the location being precisely indicated by
a hole ploughed through the masonry u
foot thick. A. tissure was also made in
the brick work Of the arch near by. Sur
prise is expressed that the explosive was
not placed directly under the barrier, in
which case tho damage would have been
far greater. All Indications show the ex-
plosiyes possessed the downwarltendency
peculiar to dynamite. 0dors indicating
sulphuric or nitric acid and totally unlike
the smell OF gun powder were noticed
after the explosion.
