At the timo of discovery (he flames had made condiderable headway, and many rooms filled with smoke. Sixteen persons were in the building at the time, and great difficulty was experi- enced in gotting them out, somo of them having to be dragged to places of safety. Thirteen persons are missing, and have probably lost their lives. The loss is estimaied at $70,- 000; insurance, $20,000.

This es. tablishment is the largest of the kind in America, and consists of several buildings. “The boiler house was in the center of four or five buildings, and had two cight-horse power boilers, four and cight years in use.

The Louisiana Firebrand Again Tires the Sena- torial Heart, The House Debates the Qaestion of Reconsidering the Hali- fax Fishery Award, Falsification and Fraud Impu- ted to Great Britain in Producing Fishery Slaims., The House Foreign Committee Discu-ses the Nicaraguan Canal Project. Special Disratch to Wasutsre, January 7.—The ques tion of the Halifax tisheries award is to be broiight prominently again t. the attention of con and the counsry. Thero has always been a suspicion in the minds of many offi- cials that tho award wes fraudu- lently cbtained. and it Is now claimed that proofs of fraud can be readily reached with a viow of finding out the facts, Mr. Springer offered the following resolution: Resolwd, That the secretary of state b tequired, if not intompatible with the public intercst, to communi- cate to this house all information in tho state department not heretofore communicated to congress i refer- ence to the Halifax fishery award of $3,500,C01), pai to Great Brirain, and espectally e tive to the -llegmp itlons, statistics and forged testimony in possession of the arbitrators, and upon which evi- dence the award was made, and also steps to procure @ serification of the recently published statements of Prof. Henry, and from statoments of Prof. Hurd, to show that there had been groes frauds, as wellas a falsifi- cation of statistics, He urged the most stringent inq iiries to forret out these frands and Lo htain restitution, if possible. Mr. Newberry stated also that the award was not made under the pres «nt government of Great Britain, and he had reason to belicve that the pres- ent government would willingly opan tke whole question upon reasonable evilence that there had been fraud, forgery and falsification ot statistics. Mr. Newberry made some remarks in sugport of his resolution, and of- fered an additicosl preamble and res olation which he desired to have, with hineee-bit “yorerghamalrd, pat objec- tions were made. Mr. Havley satd, ““We have here- tofore submitted great and grave ques- tions to arbitration. An award was made agalust the British government at Geneva, snd they paid it like men.” A member suggested that they grombled a good deal- Mr. Hawley ratorted that they grumbled smong themselves. It w. nlleged that it was stated in certain prints and papers that fraud had been used to procure the Halifsx award,and that fraud was at least connived atif not actually inaugurated by the Brit- ish govornment, and Mr. Hawley thought it would be best to wait to see whether the British government would find out whether it had not _also been imposed upon. He would have the governments act with each other as men act with men, and would wait to see whether the British govern- ment would not first take action in the matter. He protested against the proceedings here to-day, and could say that this matter could safely rest in the hands of the secretary of state at tho present. Mr. Nowborry ropliod that the British _government had known of these things for twenty months and had taken no action. = Mr. Field objected to the reference of Mr. Newberry’s reeclution, but Mr. Springer's resolution was referrod to the committee on foreign affairs. Members of the house sorm to be a good desl divided as to the propriety of stirriug this matter up at the pres- ent time. The house then proceeded to con- sider the private calendar, and d posed of twelve or thirtoen bills, and | w at 1:30 p. m. adjourned. SENATE, A firebraud was thrown into the| N senate by the presentation of a me- morial by J. A.

This ga rise to a spirited debate on the gen- eral character of the witness, and the Louisiana case continued until the expiration of the morning hour at 1 p. m., after which the senate proceed- ed to the consideration of the consu- lar und dlplomll!c appropriation bi had been nearly comple- B sfitstad dubetalbpiniog up in regard to the powers exerted by American representatives abroad to sit as judges for the trial of offenses by Amerlean citizens in foreign coun- Mr. Carpenter declared that the law ander which it was done was grossly unconstitutional, and proposed to framea bill for the creation of judi- cial dlstricts, and appointing jadges in d Japan. The recent action of Minister Maynard in tryiag and condemning an Amercan citizen at Cairo without a jury was commented upon as unconstitutional, although ssnctloned by the existing statutes. After rejocting a motion to strike out the appropriation for the support of a prison in China, the bill for the nllnl of Ben Holliday came up as the regular order. Without proceeding ‘o lh consideration the senate, at 4:30 p. m., went into executive session, and s00n after adjourned until Mondsy. CAPITAL NOTES, Special Dispatches to The Bee.
