The fire in the State House today seems to have been caused by the explosion of escaping gas which ignited in soma unexplained manner ' Two explo sions -vere heard about 3 a m, in the Quartermaster General's office on the first floor at the northwest corner of the State House. The explosions were followed by flames that shot through the windows. - In ten minutes all the apartments "were in ruins. The flames followed the steam pipes to the floor above and quickly set fire to the of fices of the clerk in chancery. From these the conflagration extended to the geological museum on the third floor. In this museum' were , many valuable State relics, but the most valuable were sent to tho New Or leans exposition a month ago.- There was a lot of battle flags, which were rescued by the firemen at the risk of their lives. The sword and saddle of General : Kearney were destroyed. The fire then moved back toward the dome and it seemed as though the Supreme court room, Chancery court room and legislative chambers would have to go. , Books and documents were nastily removed fromthe of fices of the comptroller of State. At 7 o'clock the fire was finally checked, although engines contined playing on the ruins so that access might be had to the chancery vaults where very many valuable papers relating to thousands of, estates are kept. These vaults are not burned . The loss will not fall much below $100, poo - . -v The part destroyed is the arcade of the original State house built in .1795 It was altered and improved in 1848.
