Special to the Globe. in*, ton, Feb. 1. — The executive session of the senate to-day was very inde- cisive as to the contest which a lew irrecon- cilables, among them Edmunds and Logan are most conspicuous, are anxious to get ti]) with the administration. There was some general debate participated in by a Dumber of senators, but the session was not fruitful of action. Democratic senators be- lieve that the Republican malcontents are unable to hold the party together, and all this effort to extract information from the departments regarding the president's re- movals is likely to be abandoned. Discussing- Garland's Answer. Washington, Feb. 1 The answer of Attorney General Garland to tlie resolution of the senate calling for papers in the Dus- tin case was laid before the executive ses- sion to-day. Mr. Edwards moved that it be referred to the judiciary csinmittee. from which the resolution originated, and that the committee be authorized to report upon the subject in open session. .Mr. But- ler objected to present consideration, and some debate ensued as to whether an ob- jection to a proposition of this kind could carry the matter over for a day under the rules*, but the chair ruled that a simile ob- jection carried it over, and this ended the discussion for the day. During the pro- gress of the debate Mr. Hoar suggested that the subject belonged to the jurisdiction of the committee on privileges and elections, but in this lie was not sustained.

Mr. Morgan's resolution expressing the sentiment of the senate as opposed to the appointment of otlieers of the United .States as trustees of the Mormon church came up, and was displaced by the electoral eiuuit bill, upon which Messrs. Hoar. Sherman and Ingalll addressed the senate. Mr. Evarts obtained the Boor, and tlie senate went. into executive session, and when the doors reopened adjourned. In the house Mr. llanback of Kansas rose to a question of personal privilege, and sent to the clerk's desk to have read an editorial from yesterday's New York World, en- titled THE TELEPHONE SCANDAL. The speaker decided that, as the article did not refer to Mr. Hanback, he could not speak upon it as a matter of personal priv- ilege. Alter a long wrangle the matter was dropped. Among the bills introduced were the following: By Mr. King, appropriating 93,000,000 for closing the gaps in the levees of the Mississidpi river and strengthening the levees*, by Mr. Hewitt, to abolish dis- criminating duties on works of art: also, to modify existing laws relating to duties on imports and the collection of the revenue. When the call of states was completed Mr. Mattson moved to suspend the rules and put upon its passage the bill increasing the pen- sion of soldiers' widows from - s to IIS, with an amendment providing that this act shall apply only to widows who were mar- ried to the deceased soldiers prior to its passage and to those who may hereafter marry prior to or during the service of the Soldier.

Q Washington, Feb. 1. — At a meeting of the committee on labor of the house this afternoon the committees of the Letter Carriers association of the United Males was heard. New York, Brooklyn, Phila- delphia and Washington were represented. What the carriers wanted to know was whether the eight-hour law applied to them. They had been trying for a long time to get a decision on the point, but without success, lt was explained that the bill now pending before the committee, anil Upon which a favorable report has been or- dered, contemplates the extension of the eight-hour law to the civil service, and would cover tiie letter carriers. It was finally ordered that Chairman O'Neill of *' e labor committee should call upon post- master General Vilas to-morrow and re- quest that he obtain from the attorney gen- eral an opinion as to the operation of the eight-hour law in the matter of carriers.

New Yoke, Feb. 1.— A private letter from Rome intimates that Archbishop John Joseph Williams of Boston, as well as Arch- bishop Gibbons of Baltimore, is likely to be created a cardinal.

A Young IVebraskon Confesses to Setting Fire to a Urldce. Special to the Globe. Omaha, Neb.. Feb. 1.— Last October a dastardly attempt was made to wreck a Burlington & Missouri train on the Oberlin branch by burning a bridge near the Kansas state line. It was evidently the work of an incendiary. The bridge timbers were found saturated with oil, the fire having been extinguished by the train men after the bridge had been partially destroyed. Obstructions were also found piaced on the track. The railway com-, any offered SI, 000 for the detection and conviction of the perpetrators of the crime. Information lias list been received here that a day or two ago Charles ('rimes, aged 18, living near the scene of the crime, was arrested and taken to McCook, Neb., where be con fessed to Supt. Bell that his uncle. James Grimes, induced him to Are the bridge and paid him MS for the job. The uncle poured oil over the bridge and secreted himself in the brush, into which Young Grimes also ran alter applying the match. Both witnessed the fire, the arrival of the train and extinguishment of the flames. Shortly after this James 'rimes' house wasburned and be procured a large amount of insurance. Young Grimes also confesses that he also set this M lire, his uncle giving him n double-bar reled shotgun forgoing the deed. The elder Grimes has disappeared. Young Grimes became conscience stricken and told his story to a neighbor some days aeo, before the authorities took charge of hi in. The young men will be tried in Morton county, Kan., as the bridge is located just over the line. CABINET SPECULATIONS. Two Guesses at the Composition of Gladstone's Ministry. The Grand Old Man Says He lias Not Lon^ to Live. The Coining British Cabinet. London, Feb. 1. — Mr. Gladstone has ar rived at Osborne and has received the per sonal command of the queen to form a cab inet. It is oflicially announced this after noon that Mr. Gladstone kissed the hands of her majesty on receiving her command. Both houses of parliament met to-day and adjourned until Thursday, pending the formation of a new cabinet. Mr. Glad stone received an ovation oil his arrival at Portsmouth. He made a few remarks, thanking the people for their cordial recep tion, and saying that his future life was certain to be very short. The Dublin Freeman's Journal states that it has reason to believe that Mr. Gladstone has agreed with Mr. Parnell to join forces iu parlia ment for the passage of a bill which shall establish a native parliament in Dublin to deal with Irish affairs. The new legisla tare to be constituted is to add to the pres ent safeguards the integrity of the empire and the rights of the crown. The Berlin .National Zeitung, in au article on the re cent events In English politics, censures Mr. Gladstone for gaining control of the govern ment by what it styles gross intrigue. The Vossisehe Zeitung, referring to tlie fall of Lord Salisbury, says, it is easier for Mr. Gladstone to gain a victory in parliament than to establish a durable government which would command the respect of for eign nations. FOltECAST OP THE CABINET. Mr. Gladstone has drafted a cabinet, but several of the gentlemen he has named are not pleased with the positions assigned to them, and it is therefore probable that modi ricatious will be made, delaying the publica tion of the official list. The Press associa tion gives the following as the latest fore cast of the new cabinet: Mr. Gladstone, lirst lord of the treasury and chancellor of the exchequer; Sir Fairer Herschell. lord high chancellor; Sir William Vernon Har court, homo secretary; Karl Granville, lord president of the council; Mr. H. C. II. Childers, secretary of war. The remainder is liable to alterations, but they will prob ably be as follows: Mr. George Trevelyan, president of the board of trade: Mr. A. J. Mundella. president of the local govern ment board, Earl Spencer, secretary of for eign affairs; Earl I.oseberry, secretary of the colonies; Earl Kitnberly, secret try of India: Mr. J. Chamberlain, lirst lord it the admiralty: Mr. J. Morley. chief secretary ot Ireland. It is understood that the queen objects to Mr. Morley because he is pledged to home rule. She has summoned Kan Granville to Osborne for au audience to-day. ANOTnEU FORECAST. According to the forecast of the Daily News, varying somewhat from other specu lations. Mr. Trevelyan will be president of the local government board: Mr. Mundella, president of the board of trade; Karl Kiin berly. foreign secretary; Earl Koseberry, colonial secretary; Earl Spencer, Indian secretary, and Viscount Hampden, lord privy seal. The News explains the queen's delay in summoning Mr. Gladstone by the fact that Lord Salisbury was instructed to make such an arrangement with Mr. Glad stone as if he succeeded would have pre eluded the necessity of the queen summon ing Mr. Gladstone, but that Lord Salisbury was unable to make a satisfactory arrange ment. The Prince and Princess of Wales will, attend the coming wedding of Miss Gladstone. The leaders of the Gladstone cabinet held a meeting yesterday afternoon. The Par nellites intend for the present to sit with the opposition in the bouse of commons. William Call* Another. Beki.ix, Feb. 1.— Owing to the success of the recent bal de Fopera, Emperor Will iam has ordered another ball on March 4 for the benelit of those persons who were unable to gain admittance on Friday. The presents received by Emperor William on the twenty-fifth anniversary of his acces sion to the Prussian throne are tin public exhibition at the castle. They form a daz zling display, surpassing in beauty the ex hibition of the gifts received by Prince Bis marck on his last birthday. Gilbert Not Penniless. London. Feb. 1.— Mr. W. S. Gilbert has written to the Harpers acknowledging the receipt of £10 for the reprinting of his original comic operas. He says he is not reduced to penury, despite the fact that he has been pillaged right and left in America. He therefore does not feel justified in ac cepting charity, and has sent the check to the Victoria hospital for children. Foreign Flashes. Premier do Freycinct has informed a com mittee of the French chamber of deputies tbat he is examining petitions to abolish > gambling at Monaco and is personally nego tiating with the Prinee of Monaco for the sup pression of the tables. In spite of the denial of the North German Gazette, the advanced Liberal press persists in asserting the government will pram an organized revision of the May laws in order to obtain ultramontane centers in support of the spirit monopoly measure. The Carl 1st Journal La Fe states that Don Carlos has decided that the Carllst party will not take part in tho coming Spanish elections, but he grants the necessary authority to those members who desire to become candidates. 8 The German government has ordered*."*-!. seizure of Polish papers for commenting on tbe recent debate in the landstag.

Dakota has never beeo denied thing to w hica sue is entitled, all her AXK-TOOU1ND HOWLERS to the contrary notwithstanding.

How the/ bave ever succeeded in letting ■ man of Senator Harri- son's mild ability and respectability to plead their knavish and absurd cause is more than I can comprehend. Their ill should be tabled. An act to admit the half slate of Dakota is ridiculous, and it will require a six- teenth or seventeenth amendment of the con- -atttut ion to do it. nan STUPID HULLABALOO is doing one thing only. It is giving the Democrats ample ground for keeping Dakota out of the Union us one state until alter the next presidential election. Tbat means a loss of Ave or BUt electors for John A, Logan, or whoever may be the Republican nominee for Grovor Cleveland place. The Democrats in congress are luliy justified in saying while this blackguard war of Dakota spoilsmen for and against division la go_u« on: -."-You fel- lows don't know what you want yourselves. Until you do.it is useless to appeal to us. Division of your territory is impossible and preposu ..us. yet that is what some of you demand us absolutely necessarv. Admission as oue state is your undoubted right. yet you nave never asked it. • We can do nothing for you until you decide to accept what is both right and rea- sonable.' As the thing stands now Dakota will never be divided, and she will not be ad- mitted as a simile state until after the next election. The most sensible move would be to buy at once a .0,000.000 jackass-power kicking machine, get all her horde of politi- cal fliibustercrs, bogus senaiors.congressmen and general Jackanipes of statesmanship into one gigantic trouser seat, perch them on the tallest peak of the gold-ribbed lilack Hills and kick the w -bole caboodle clear over the top of the it. sky mountains and Sand- wich islands into the deepest middle of the Pacific ocean.

Grand Haven, Mich., Feb. 1.— Fire broke out at 10 o'clock to-night in the De- troit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee freight house, and in a few minutes nearly half of that immense structure, which stretches nearly three squares from south to north, was on fire. The department re sponded quickly, but owing to the tierce southwest gale i, id intense cold, has so far been unable to check the fire's progress, aud at 4 o'clock the entire structure was a mass ot tiame, and will be au entire loss, together with all freight stored therein. The de partment is working heroically, but can save nothing in the freight house and ele vator, but all energy is directed to adjoin ing buildings.

The elevator is now entirely ENVELOPED IN* FIERCE FLAME3 together with the remainder of the ware house, and nothing can save iL Lumber yards ire just north of the fire, and if they catch the entire northwestern part of the city will be doomed. The damage will be very heavy. Twenty-five or thirty freight cars were destroy The company's books are safe. She excitement is intense and the whole city is fighting the flames. At 11:45 p. m. the elevator and the warehouse north of the elevator are on tire. Prospects of saving the passenger depot are good. Three steamers have come from Spring Lake to assist the local department. 12:20 a. m. — The fire is under control, but is still fiercely burning. The fire de- partment has done some miraculous work since the elevator fell by saving the back portions of the freight house, although covered with corrugated iron. The build ings would all have gone like tinder but for the hard and intelligent work of the firemen. The gale is still blowing fiercely, but has shifted to the west, which has abided ma terially in the hour of greatest need. The total loss will not fall short of $-25,000, which amount is supposed to be fully in sured. It is conjectured that In connection with the sheds yet standing temporary sheds will at once be put up and business for part of the railroad company will not sutler. There is considerable storage room in the part of the sheds saved. The Steamer I.olun Ashore. Newport. IL L.
