An Effective Fire Drill.

New YORK, Feb. 12.-Fire was discov.
ed shortly after O'Clock this morning in the
Roman Catholic Orphan Asylum on Fifth
avenue. There are four hundred ara
fifteen orphan boys in the asylum. bo,
the mother superior at once sounded tho
alarm used In the fire drill, and, aided hv
the other sisters, marshaled all the cbild.
rem in orderly files to the entrance wbe,s
they were In perfect safety. The damage /.
estimated at $4,000.

referred to the Committee on Streets. He
said that the petitioners had in their own
petition stated that the chairman of the
committee had said he was acting under an
ordinance, and relief could not be had from
the committee but must be sought at the
hands of Council. The Committee on
Streets would be justly offended and might
consider 1t such reelection as would cause
them to resign. They hsd done their duty
under the law, and the best way would be
to refer the matter to them and lei them re-
port to Council what was wrong in the mat
ter, az they would do.
Mr.. Fisher would be sorry to see the CON-
mittee resign; but be thought that justice
should be done to the petitioners.
Mr.. Sweeney did not wish to cast any re-
Election on the Committee on Streets in this
CASE The special committee, if one was
appointed. could only report the facts, aud
the Committee on Streets would do the
same There would be no difference. A
special committee would be an interference
with the work which Council had directed
the street committee to do. Nothing would
give satisfaction to everybody there with
surface cutters. A sewer would be needed
but its cost would be too great.
Mr.. Strider desired to know if the worg
WIS TO 20 Oh unuSE luio EclcIouCo.
It was stated that when this petition came
before the Committee on Streets they would
of course not carry on work which they
miaht be required to stop in few weeks.
The suffice was referred to the Commit
tee on Streets.
The Mayor laid before the Council tele.
gram from Richmond urging the city to re
quest its r. personalities to oppose the bill
~ 7 forhiaAip0 ho
use of any overhead electric current of q
tension greater than 500 volts. as such law
would destroy the electric light works OF
Alexandria.
Mr.. Strder said that there was an effort
to crush out in Virginia all patents e.1
cept those of Edison.
MIR. Marbury said that he understood that
the Edison company had no patent for arc
ligkt7 and that the object of the bill now be-
fore & committee of the Legislature was to
allow no arc lights to be used in Virginia.
The effect would be to abolish the electric
street lights here.
On motion of Mr. Fisher telegram was
ordered to be sent to the Delegate and SeDe
tor asking that they oppose tho proposed
law.
When the Aldermen's bill relative to DC
cepting the securities of trust companies fol
city offices came in some members though!
that there need be no hurry in this matter
No officer would have to be bonded for some
time.
MIR. Sweeney at first was opposed to pass.
ing the bill but after the further explanation
that the use of these bonds was optional, al
objection was Withdrawn aud the bill passed
By unanimous vote.
Mr.. Marburys resolution to increase the
pay of the police force and communication
from the fire wardens recommending fire
alarm system were referred to the Finance
Committee without debate.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA dispatch from Dan.
YER says All trains from the East and
South we're delayed by Monday nights
storm, from to 20 hours. The snow was
not heavy but mixed with sand, consequent
ly it was impossible to use plows, and
miles of track had to be cleared by hand
shovelpg. A Santa Fe freight was wrecked
near Pueblo by colliding with boz car that
had been blown from a side track, but no
one was seriously injured. A party of
young people living In Colorado Springs
had thrilling adventure. They left the
city early for days picknicing in Cheyenne
Canyon. At the time of starting it was like
June day. The storm came upon them
80 suddenly that they had to fad refuge ln
rancho building. Several of the party
suffered from the exposure but none of them
Ia In danger. Seachers who went out to
look for them were not so fortunate, as sew.
eral of them were badly frost bitten. ]. E.
Webster, OF Denver, lost his life in the bllz.
card. He had been out In the country on
business and returning home was overcome.
1t is not thought the loss to stock will be
heavy.

Letter from Richmond.

Correspondence of the ALEXANDRA GAZETTE.
RICHMOND, Vs., Feb. 1.-The discus
slou in the Senate to day over the resolution
introduced by Senator Heaton, of Loudoun,
was quite interesting. A big batch ofpapers
was reported to the Finance Committee
and that Committee will select from the lot
what matter they desire to be printed.
When this is printed then Senator Heaton
will turn his guns upon abuaes he expec's
to uDearth By close examination OF the
records of the various educational institu-
lions. Some damaging rumois are In cir
cuation 10 regard to the expenditures al
these institutions but no facts have been
developed as yet to indicate that anything
wrong has been going on. One of the ru.
mors that strikes the average legislator la
that some of these institutions have paid for
lobbying at the General Assembly. This
sounds strange and is hardly probable.
Col. Thomas Whitehead. the Commission
er of Agriculture, was in the Senate cham
Der to-day when the report on the agrlcu'-
tural department was read. The Colonel
listened attentively to the reading of the re-
port and after the clerk had finished said TO
a bystander "If the election was left to
the General Assembly l could get ninety
votes." The Colonel is a little apprehensive
since the power OF appointing Commits
soner ofAgriculture ia left with the Govern
or. His opponents are making the point
before the Governor that Col. Whitehead
cannot hold the position again as he ia not
"a practical farmer" as the law requires.
The controversy over the agricultural de.
partment ia growing bitter and ought to end
AZ soon as possible.
The report OF the joint committee ap-
pointed to investigate the agricultural de
pertment was very severe on Commissioner
Whitehead, and when it comes up for con-
sderation in the two branches of the Gen.
eral Assembly some sharp talk may be ex
pected.
Senator Yarrell of Greensville, expects
delegation of citizens from his county this
week to urge the passage of bill for the
relief of the sufferers in Greensviie, an ac-
count of whose misfortune hes heretofore
been referred to in the GAZETTE 1t is not
thought that the General Assembly will
vote an appropriation to the Greensville
sufferers. The legislators ell are anxious
10 help these people but they cannot see
their way clear from legal standpoint to
vote money for such q purpose.
Notwithstanding the late news Of the ses.
sion large numbers of bills are being intro
auced in both houses Of the General Assem-
bly,. All introduced after ten days from to
day will stand poor show Of passing
