TIE MICRO preachers OF Pitlshurg met
lest Monday and passed resolutions &C.
nounclng the real estate firms OF that city
for refusing to rent their RAGS houses in GER
tain localities there, thereby forcing them to
live by themselves In negro settlements
away from white people. They declared that
greater Discrimination exists against their
race In toe North than in the South. But

sons speeches in the South, during his
Saving around the CIRCLE" was that In this
section there should be- no discrimination
against the negro. The protested love the
northern republicans have for the negro is
one of the most transparent humhugs Ia this

Terrible Explosion in Rome.

ROME. April 23.-At about seven o'clock
this morning q tremendous explosion ehook
this city to Its foundations. spreading terror
and dlsmay on all sides. The people rush.
ed sffhghteG from their homes into the
streets. houses rocked, pictures fell from
the walls, thousands OF panes Of glass were
broken every here, crockery was shattered,
furniture was overturned. chimneys crash
cd down upon the rocfs, and toppled over
into the streets below. The oupola of the
Houses OF Parliament shook violently and
then collapsed with crash. The scenes In
the street. hsvs never bsfore been equalled In
dramatic Eff ycts during the history OF med
ern Rlme. All the thoroughfares were
strewn with bricks, stones, splin.ers, end
other debris hurled Thor, bY the force OF the
powerful concuation which had caused
Rome To totter on its foundations People
OF all ages and conditions were rushing, pale
with fear, about the streets. 10 many In
alta ness people were isrked from their Dsda
By The shock, and criss OF terror Il led the
air as thousands Of families rushed out Into
tina streets. The general opinion that pre-
yailsd was that r )ms had been visited by
an earthquake shock and that second
sh,ck might raducs the city to rules. Many
fell upon their knees and prayed aloud.
Finally, whsn something like order had
been restored it Was discovered that the im-
meuse powder magszine at Ptzz, Pantaleo,
about two miles from the city, hal e1-
ploded, and that it had caused enormous
damage. Happily the officers heard rum
bling sound previous to the 6aal explosion
and hastily ordered the soldiers to leave the
fort. As it was. several peasants who were
in the vicinity of the scene Of the explosion
we're killed outright and q number OF others
we're more or less injured. The Vatican
was shaken by the explosion and several OF
the famous historical stained-glass windows
OF the venerable pile were shattered and
portions of the building seriously Injured.
The full moun5 OF ths damage done Ia not
Known at present, but all accounts sgree
th It the loss Is very severe, the interior of
m my Of the cd palaces and churches hav-
Ing aufIsred to greater or lesser extent.
Toe exact number OF killed aud wounded is
also unknown at present. Two officers we're
wounded and fully 100 civilians
are suff ,ring from wounds or bruises caused
b. the explosion. Tas mag zine contained
two bundled aud Fifty tons Of powder.
The cause of the explosion is q mystery.
