The explosion, it will be remembered, caused the geatn ot Mr. Moses and serious injuries to Mr. Doubleday and Mr. Kennedy. clerks in the building. The committee of investigation consisted of S. J. Bowen, Esq, Postmaster of of this city, and Professors B.S. Hedrick and Charles G. Page. Afier Tecapitulating the tacts elicited in the examination of witnesses, they say: “In conclusion, the committee feel justified in the verdict thatthe explosion came irom gas trom the Stevens machine, which passed through and leaked from the Wood- rufl machine, in consequence of the opening Of its stop cocks during the night by some per- son unknown.” Postmaster Bowen, with the assent and ap- proval of the other members of the committee, Says:—“] beg leave to report thata due re- “gard to the safety of the lives of those em- Ployed in the city post office, and the security of the building and contents, makes it my im- perative duty to state that the testimony taken shows that the storage of any quantity of gas- oline or naptha in or about said building is exceedingly improper and dangerous; that, in view of the fact that the vapor of such naptha, mixed with atmospheric air in the Proportion of one to twenty, forms a material about as ex- Plosive as gunpowder, and that it is impos- sible to prevent the accumulation of such va- por at times when changing the gasoline from ba is to the gas machines and from leakage, Say nothing of the inflammability of the material,) I trust that an order will be given to remove both the gazolineand machines from the building, and that some other methed be resorted to light both the pest office and the department. 1f not removed, I ap- prehend that at no distant day another ex- Pplosion more disastrous in its consequen- ces than that we now so much deplere will follow, and I am unwilling that the Tesponsib lity in anywise shali rest with me i take this occasion to suggest that, should i: be determined to continne the use of the ma- chines, there should be employed competent, reliable persons to take charge of them at light, those who are acquainted with the op Tation or the machines as well as the princi- pies on which gas is generated. Had there een such officers im attendance on the night of the explosion, they would have discovered that something was Wrong as seon as the light began to fil, and no deubt would haye as- certained where the gas was leaking, id thus that explosion might have been prevent- ed. We use very little gas in the day time, and as what we consume is maanfactared at this time of ite consumption, it is a matter of surprice to me thatan attendant shonid be re- quired to be present during the day and suf- fered to be absent at night, while the ma- chines are running. 1 may repeat that it is my earnest desire and hope that the gasoline and machines tna’ § be removed as soon as Practicable trom the building. ? i Bedi tee Tur Masonic DeMoNsTRATION.—The Ma- Sonic demonstration this afternoon will dowbt- jess bea fine affair, as the brotherhood gener- ally are making eyery preparation for ir.

Sergeant Walker, of the Second Ward, received ‘word that there was a woman near the 14th Street bridrs, behaving in @ very simgular anner. Mr. Walker immediately went to place indicated, and was informed by some dadies that they bad spoken to the womar in question, who was at that time walking leisurely along the canal, and she gave such SVasive answers ss 'o impress them with the belief that she ivrded to e¢ommit snicide. Sergeant Walker went to her and took her in charge, when she informed h iQ answer to questions, that she did not 1 at liberty to give the ladies who questioned her any in- formation. and when one of them advised her motto be rash, she told her that it was not Ber Business, that she would jemp in the canal if she wanted to. Sergean’ + took her to the station, where every effert was made to ascer- tain her name, what troubled her. &c , but without ecess. The only information she that she came from near Spring- ass., five or six weeks since, Stayed at Dyer’s Hote! until yesterday morning, and had a male friend in the Quartermas'er’s De. partment.

Woltz, for tho benefitot the poor of the South, presented so Many interesting and attractive features as to render 1 worthy of something more than a mere passing notice. The stereoscopic views, especially those illustrative of Bible history, were impressively beautiiul. Tne nevel mi- croscopic apparatus, with its wonderful ex- hibition of tiving insects, formed a most at- 'ractive aid instructive feature; while the recitations of original poems by Mr. H. Ulay Preuss, especially the one entitled ‘Honor to our Workmen,” together with the fine singing of the Quartette Club, fairly + brought duwn the bouse” with énthusiastic applause. Al- thoueh a fair audience war assembled on the occasion, yet, in view of the noble object of the entertainment, the very low price of ad- mission, and heavy expense of music and ad- vertisements, we regret the hail was not filled, as itshould have been, to its utmost capacity esac THE GENTLEMEN’s 220 silk Mixed Suits at Henning’s One Price Ciething Store, on the corner of 7th street and Maryland avenue, are very superior for that price, and those who callearly will geta better article than they will later for the same money.
