So strong had our position bsome un- der the Protective policy of the first twenty-five years of national life that our merchant marine continued to be prosperous so long as wooden vessels were the only vehicles of ocean com merce and other nations refrained from heavy subsidies to their ships. But when wooden vessels began to be supplanted by iron steamers, and European govern ments poured their contributions into the treasuries of their steamship com panies, the decadence of American ship ping began and has continued ever since. e.--From Secretary Windom's Last Speech.
 Edward Atkinson, one of the ablest statisticians in the United States, whose facts are always on the side of Protec- tion, although in his dreams he occa- sionally smiles upon Free-trade, declares that the prices of goods have not ad. vanced, while wages are now at the high tide mark.

WACO, TEX, April 24.-In executive ses-
sion to-day the Alliance conference adopted
the following: Whereas, the annual con-
ference of the state Alliance OF Texas now
assembled in the city of Waco has opened
its doors to the public in its discussion Of
matters concerning the public, and has
treated courteously the partisan newspaper
reporters who have attended said meet
ingS for the purpose, as was supposed oy
this conference in good faith of giving u
true and faithful account of the proceed
ings of said public meetings; and
Whereas, some newspaper reporters have
reported only garbled extracts of the
speeches made IN such occasions, lnSlnu-
ating in much of their report where they
failed to give the language of the speaker
false and misleading conceptions and 1udg-
ments clothed in their own language: and
Whereas, insinuations that the tendency
of the deliberations of this conference has
been of partisan political character have
found their way into the press; and
Whereas, the only political feature OF the
Alliance is the study and PRONUNCIATION OF
the true scientific principles of economic
government in strictly non-partisan
spirit: therefore be it
Resolved by this annual conference OF
the Texas state Alliance now assembled at
Waco: l. That we view with distrust and
disfavor the unfair, inaccurate and mis-
Leading reports OF iile pdIliSdn press.
2 That we believe the reporters, es-
pecially when they are treated courteously
by a deliberative body, should give in their
reports concerning that body the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
3. That we view the insinuations of the
partisan press that the character OF the de-
alterations of this body are, politically con-
sidered, partisan, as unwarranted lmpugn-
ments of the motives that actuate the great
br0t hprhOOi of orr order.
T. That as great brotherhood of unity
and charity, we will stand up like men for
the true, scientific, economic and conserva-
tive principles and demands Of our organi-
cation, and will fight our battles for God,
humanity, manhood and our right, in our
own way, On an open but non-partisan field
5. That we view with patriotic inspiration
and love the noble and effective efforts of
our brave and conservative leaders, and
would veil with charity those whose in
effectual efforts to fence them round with
calumny and SANDER fall helplessly to the
ground.

The EynlOsinn In Italy.

ROME, April 24-The explosion of 265
! tons of powder yesterday in the powder
magazine at Pozze Pantalo, which caused
serious damage and loss of life, created
great alarm at the vatican. All the win
dowS of the pope's library were broken and
number of precious relics destroyed. In
addition many valuable panes of colored
glass in the principal windows of st. Peters
basilica We're smashed to pieces. The hand
some stained glass window over the chair
of st. Peter was also broken. At st. Paul'S
church all the stained glass windows were
damaged. In fact, the damage done at the
church was so great that the building has
been closed to the public, while debris is
being cleared away and work of temporary
repairs inaugurated. Much of the destruc-
ton wrought by the explosion is irrepara-
bic, as valuable works Of art, which have
been destroyed, cannot be replaced. Many
of the stained glass windows which have
been shattered are works of celebrated art
lists who fiourished hundreds of years ago,
and though in some cases the windows can
be replaced, in many other cases their his
torical and artistic value is destroyed for
ever.
Many of the most valuable relics of the
monastery of St. Paul have also succumbed
to the force of the explosion. As already
stated, some time must elapse before the
full amount of damage will be known, as it
will require personal visit to and inspec-
ton of tens of thousands of artistic relics
before the full story of disaster can be as
certained.
It now transpires that the pope had just
conducted the celebration of low mass and
was engaged in prayer when the explosion
shook the vatican building. So severe was
the shock that his holiness tottered and
would have fallen had not one of the serv-
ants in attendance sprung forward and
caught him. His holiness has now recov-
cred from the shock he experienced through
the explosion. The investigation made by
the military authorities into the origin of
the explosion shows that it was caused by
the accidental explosion of some shrapnel
shells capsules A few Of the people who
were injured at the time of the explosion
and who were taken to the hospital have
since died.
King Humbert today is calling at the hos
pital and is visiting the wounded people
The kings sympathetic action in conveying
some Of the wounded in his own carriage to
the hospitals yesterday, and in visiting
the wounded to-day, is highly appreciated
by the populace of this city
Among those who We're hurt by the acc-
dent was Billot, French ambassador, who
was slightly injured by falling glass.

The News says the Newfoundland pre-

which deserves the full estimation of the

The Chronicle says that Newfoundland's
objection to arbitration cannot have much
weight now, but the assertion that New

ton of the renewal of the modus vivendi, if
correct, is good ground for complaint.
