Rom*i Italy. Nov. 19.—A bomb ex-
,,1,,,1,.,1 ‘nt noon yesterday Inside of St.
I’eierM.I near Canova’a celebrated mon
ument!" Pope Clement XIII, Masses
hi,,l JUst finished, except one, when
there was a loud report and a cloud of
nm.'ke filled the basilica. The edifice
was crowded and great confusion fol-
|,nve,l. There were no fatalities.
As sunn as the echoes of the tremen
dous roar had ceased, a canon sought,
by reassuring words, to quiet tile peo
ple. but In vain. They fled In all direc
tions and a number of women fainted.
Women and children screamed and
men tried to protect their families In
the crush.
The church Is so large, however, that
there was ample room for the crowd to
scatter and no one was Injured. No
trace of the perpetrator of the deed "has
been found.
The pontiff asked anxiously If the
church had been Injured. ' Upon being
reassured, he fell on hts knees, saying
he must Implore mercy for the mis
guided perpetrator of the deed.
Soon after this announcement was
made to him, the pope 1 went to the
throne room, where he admitted to pri
vate audience Manager Kennedy, rec
tor of the American College, who pre
sented to his holiness Mr. and Mrs.
if™,•». McCloskey. of Philadelphia,
and Mr. Paul S. King, of New York,
who noticed that the pope was pale.
Not For Me, Says, Pope.
After this the pope proceeded to the
hall of the consistory where he receiv
ed about two hundred persons. Includ
ing twenty-five students of a South
American college, to whom he delivered
a short address. None of these per
sons knew anything of the explosion.
Conversing later with a prelate, the
pope said:
"Nobody can say the bomb was In
tended for me, as I even did not hear
the noise. The only plausible explana
tion was that It was intended merely
to frighten and not to do any damage.
It was probably a mild vengeance of
the anarchists against the precaution
ary arrests that hare been made ow
ing to the coming visit of the King of
Greece."
This bomb explosion makes the third
anarchist outrage In Italy In four days,
the other two being the murder of
Professor Rossi, In Naples, yesterday,
and the explosion of a bomb In front
of the Cafe Arango, In this city, on
November 14.

Chicago, Nov. 19.—‘‘We have enough
railroads now," said Edward H. Harrl-
imtn. master of 29,000 miles of rail
roads. valued at $2,500,000,000, during
an Interview In Chicago yesterday.
"In the future the best policy of rail
roads will he to develop the rich terri
tory through which they pass. Improve
ih* lines and ianirittmlh-^nd the rolling
stork anil the facilities for handling
freight to Hie TTlghesl standard of"*f-
Ik'lency.” he added. "This encourages
civilisation and what the Illinois Cen
tral has rhino In this direction has been
an Incentive toother lines.
"Any proposition which would, by
aeltailon nr otherwise. Injure the credit
of big transportation companies so that
they would not be able to raise capital
for Improvements, will seriously affect
lire business interests of the country.
Ambitious to become a financial sover
eign. you nsk? I'd give It. all up to
morrow If I could.
"Hut to achieve what the world calls
ruccess, a man must attend strictly to
business and keep a little In advance of
the times,”
i in the subject of railway expansion,
Mr. Ilarrlman said that his views were
understood, and he pointed In that con-
nertlon to the Increase of mileage In
the Illinois Central, which was a local
line. Toi miles long, In the southern
part of the state, when he became con
nected with It In 1883. He believes
now. however, that the Illinois Central
and other railroads that he Is connect
ed with can achieve the best results by
developing the territory through which
they run.
After spending Sunday quietly In
Atlanta, Governor and Mrs. Albert B.
Cummins, of Iowa, and one hundred
and thirty-eight prominent citizens and
officials of the state left on the special
train shortly after midnight Sunday
night for Chlckamauga and Lookout
Mountain. Monday will bfe spent In
looking over these' historical points of
Interest.
Thence the party will go-to Johnson-
vllle, Tenn., where a steamer will be
taken for a trip up the Cumberland to
Shiloh, where the Confederate and
Federal farces met 40 years ago In ons
of the bloodiest battles of the civil war.
Wednesday will be spent In Inspecting
the battlefield, the party leaving on
Wednesday night on the return trip to
Johnsonvllle, thence to Chicago, where
the party will break up Sunday.
Governor and Mrs. Cummins spent
Sunday at the Piedmont, but the other
members of the party remained In the
special train and took their meals In
the largeit dining car ever built and
made especially for touring parties.
The party Is accompanied bv a brass
band, which furnishes music on all
special occasions.
The special train arrived In Atlanta
over ten hours late from Andersonvltle,
where the site of the old prison was
Inspected.. Several members of the
party were prisoners at this place and
the visit had an additional Intsrest for
them. Governor Cummins was visited
during Sunday by many prominent At
lantans.. but the stay of the distin
guished people in Atlanta was not
marked by any set program.
EDWARD H. HARRIMAN.
The great railway king says there
are enough railroads in this
country now.
BAIL IS REFUSED
- FOR RIOT NEGROES
At a final hearing of the application
for ball of the negroes accused of par
ticipation In the Brownsville shooting
on the evening of September 24, when
County Policeman Jim Heard was
killed. Judge Roan Monday morning
declined to Interfere except ..po'sslbly In
the cases of Anderson Bates, Arthur
Calhoun and the two Parks boys, whoso
cases he took under consideration.
Milton Petera he allowed to go on
his own' recognisance hit Tile' recom
mendation of Solicitor Hill.
The application for ball accomplished
practically nothing, therefore, except
possibly compelling the state to divulge
some of the evidence oh which It de
pended for conviction. .
The cases will come up again at
the next term of court, beginning on
Monday next, and at that time It Is
thought the lawyers representing the
defendants will agree to consolidate
some of the cases. It they do not the
cases will probably be strung out over
several terms of court.

STEINW Pianos
The (act that over a hundred million dollars worth of Steinway
Pianps have been sold without the aid of bargain-store; alliances or
mechanical devices, proves conclusively that Steinway pre-eminence is
founded solely on merit.
The music-loving public recognize that the creative genius exercised
and the infinite pains expended in Steinway construction demand a
somewhat higher price, but that in proportion to value received the
Steinway is the most moderate-priced piano in existence.
For proof examine the Vertegrand at $500, a happy combina
tion of merit and price that has made it the shrine of worship for the
legion of music lovers of refinement, culture and
judgment whose limited means have heretofore
prevented the gratification of their desires.
When in the market for a real piano,
come to see and hear the Steinway.
