AK IXTEETIEW WITH DEACO.V WHITE.
Tit Veteran InagiitJ the Phytic' League Still in Ex
istence. An effort is to be made next week to form
tan Association football league in Western
Pennsylvania; tbat is a league of clnbs
which will play under Association rules.
As has often been remarked in this paper
recently, football is rapidly rising in popu
larity, and there is every prospect of a
league of eight teams being formed before
the season closes. In the Western part of
this State and in Eastern Ohio there seems
to be more "Association" players than fol
lowers or the Rugbr rules, and it has been de
cided to call a meeting of patrons ot the former
to discuss the chances of forming a league.
Freaking on this matter jesterday afternoon,
Charlei White, manager ot the Eighteenth
ward team, said:
"We have made np our minds to tiyand
form a league. We would bare called a meet
ing for the d instant, bat onr team plays a
match on that da, so that Me cannot meet un
til a few days later. Already three teams have
declared their willingness to join a league.
These teams are: Eighteenth ward. Homestead
and Shad side. I think no can also get the
following teams to join us: East Liverpool,
Lucyville. Monongahela City, Millvale and a
team from the Southside. Our idea is to play a
scries of caines against each other, and the
vinner of the most games to be the recipient
of a silver cup. I think i e can get a cup with
out much trouble.
"I find," continued Mr. White, "that hun
dreds ot oung men who work in mills aud fac
tories desire to play football because it seems
to be all the rage this winter. The idea of or
ganizing a league will bnngall the aspirants to
the front, and I predict that the Association
rules will become the popular rule, because
they do not permit of such rough work as do
the Rugby rule. If wc form our league, of
course we cannot expect to do much this sea
ton, but wc can get through a tolerably good
schedule, and get thoroughly established for
next season."
Mr. White is a prominent player from Shef
field, England, and has on his Eighteenth ward
team several excellent players. His team are
as follow'-: Goal keeper. Will Wardell: full
backs. William Woods and John Clements;
half backf.Ben Pool and John Sliarman; center
forward. Josenh Wardell; lettwing. Charles
White; nrht wing. Thomas Parks: forwards,
E. Potts, R Goodwortb. William Ely. Parks
has recently arrived from Birmingham. En
gland, where there are numerous first-class
football plavers.
The above team will play against an eleven of
the Allegheny Athletic Association at Exposi
tion Park on Saturday next. The contest will
be one of unusual interest, at it will enable the
many new patrons of the game to judge as to
the respective merits of the Association and
Rugby rules. The Athletics will have a Mrong
team on the field, including such mod players
as A. Macpherson, W. Pyatt, Owens aud An
derson. BASEBALL ATFAIES.
Al Johnson Makrs tin Offer That Slakes
N. I- Magnates "Wonder.
New Yokk, November 16. Regarding the
baseball situation it is authoritatively
stated that the only clubs now in
the cold are the Boston, Philadelphia
and Cleveland clubs. It is curiou-. but
nevertheless true, that the backers of
these three clubsare workmgfor their individ
ual clnbs to save all they can of the money they
havelostin trying to bring aboutarevolutionin
baseball One might judge that the Players'
League is alive and to-day the leading baseball
organization to hear some of the talk Indulged
In by some of the capitalists who bave as yet
effected no settlement. They are afraid they
will get very little, and consequently are put
ting m bold faces aud plavmg a great game of
"blotf."
Early yesterday alternoon At Johnson went
before the League as a body and made a propo
sition as an individual, not as a committee of
thePlajers' League. Nobody has ever said of
Johnson that he was ever anything but shrewd,
but when he faced the League magnates and
said that he would settle for 40,000 it nearly
look their breath away. Johnson has about
16.WH)iuested in baseball, and he does nut
pioposetoget left if be car. help it. But it
seems that in this instance he will.
The magnates heard nis proposition with re
spectful attention. After he had left the room
tlierc as no longer any reason as to why Pres
lent Prank dc H. Robinson, of the Cleveland
N. L.) club, could come to terms. TbeSlO.OOO
Included the Cleveland (P. L.) club and John
ton's mtcrest in the Cincinnati club.
Johnson will never get that amount, accord
ing to the magnates. The League is willing to
come to terms with him and pay him a reason
able sum. but they say that be' is evidently play
ing for big stakes and will get left. The fact
is. Johnson will get badly left if he docs not
show an inclination to take a fair price.
I' is lolly understood that Boston and Pnila
delpkia P. L. clubs arp to join the Association.
THE DEACON'S FOOLISH DEEAMS.
Old Jim White Mill Thinks There Is a
Plaj erV League Existing.
IFrrcut. Tft.L.Jb.aitAi to tiik dispatcii.J
Buffalo. November 16. In conversation
with the Dispatch correpondent to-night.
Deacon White said that base ball pros
pects for Buffalo are very slim aud
In his opinion Bulfalo sports would do
better to start a croquet league. Mr.
White denied the report that Bulfalo was ex
pelled for nou-pament of dues, and said that
the Players' League would probably have to
fall back on old Buffalo before she got
through.
"1 he purchase of the Cincinnati Club for
J40U09 is killing the Plajers' League, said Mr.
White. "Up to the time of this move every
thing was going smoothlj, but now observe the
difference. '1 his new deal pinches the capital
ists, for they had hard work to M.rape the price
together. The Brotherhood had the National
people whipped, and had they kept a stiff upper
lip. in a feu weeks more the National League
would have been begging for quarter. A lew
fculmng capitalists are responsible for the
whole affair, but the battle isn't lost. We are
In it yet. New York has consolidated, hut
will the Players' league men go over?
O'Rourke, for one. will make a big kick, and
Ewlng told me at Pittsburg that he had in no
way bound himself. In Brooklyn. Ward can
control the p!acrs in tlie interest or the
Btotheihood, and there's just a chance, if the
Players' League goes on a chance, I h.av, that
Ward's club will be tran-ferred to Buffalo. I
do not believe that Chicago has sold out to
bjiauldmg. Philadelphia. Boston, Cleveland
and the citv of Buffalo remain intact, and Al.
Johnson has a claim on Cincinnati and so have
the Wagner Brotners of Philadelphia. There's
powerful nucleus left to battle against the
National League 11 the Players will only hold
together."
The Deacon went on to sav that the salaries
of the players of the Buffalo club have not
yet been paid.
Goldsmith's Great Success.
Mr. James Goldsmith has reached his home
at Washingtonville, N. Y., where he is at pres
ent recuperating his health. Few readers
realize the great strain upon a man's nervous
system in training and driving a stable of
horses such as Mr. Goldsmith Ins handled this
year. According to our I.st of winning drivers
.Mr. Goldsmith has started in 103 races, win
ning more than one-half of them, and in the
entire number he has won money of all but
seven. This is a remarkable showing, and per
haps it has never been equaled by any trainer
in .inv year in the history of the trotting horse.
Add to this the care and number of fast miles
required to put the stable in condition to start,
and one can form an idea of the mental and
pnvsical strain trainer undergoes in making
such a campaign as the one Mr. Goldsmith has
closed. And look at the resnlts in records:
ramlioo. 2:10J ; Mambrino Maid, 2:17J: Simmo
colon. 2:19: Plush. 2:19f; Dawson. 2:ISJi. aside
irom several others that did not cross the 2:20
hiw.bportsman.
Seized the SL-ivin Belt.
London, November 16. The belt which was
imported from New York for rresentation to
Frank Slavin as the prize of his recent victory
over Joe McAuIiffe is now held by the customs
authorities in Liverpool until the fes for duty
have been paid on it- The solicitors who have
the case in hand claim its exemption from duty
on the pround that it was paid before, when it
came over for presentation to Kilrain, and also
because it is a trophy. Should, however, the
customs officers still reluse to deliver it, the re
quired duty will be paid.
ABOUT BECOBD AFFIDAVITS.
Malcolm Ford Gives Some Reasons Showing
That Tliey Are of little Use.
Malcolm W. Ford, writing in Tar, Field and
Farm, very peftincntly deals with the use or
affidavits in proving records as follows:
What is the. usootafllravits if they are not
even to be considered? I have always been
opposed to awarding records by affidavits, and
still think that simple statements lrom the
officials managing Hie perforrmnce is all that
is necessary. Affidavits are looked upon by
men not familiar with athletics as an easy way
of asserting the truth or showing their ability
to correctly judge a performance. The mam
point that the A. A. U. made in accepting W.
C. Dobm's one-halt mile record of one minute
55J seconds, which he is said to have made at
Travers Island, June, 18S9. is that the afBdaylts
of the timer read that that was the time, and
that as the affidavits met the -requirements of
the A A. U., there was no way of getting around
them. Dohm's figures beat those that L.
E. -Meyers made under unusually lair condi
tions by 3-20 of a second. The timers when
Myers made his record ot 1 minute 55 2-5 sec
onds were men of known ability, while those
officiating at Dohm's performance were fully
as unknown, if no more so than those who
held'watches on Cary's recent run. In Dobm's
case unusual pressure was brought to bear to
have the record pnt through. In Cary's case
an equal amount of pressure has been brought
to bear to prevent the record from going
through. That is about all there is to it.
Turf, Field and Farm did not accept Dohm's
alleged record, for it does not think the cir
cumstances under which the race was run, the
way it was timed, and the way the affidavits
w ere filed weeks after the performance was
dropped from notice, warrants its being con
sidered genuine; especially when it would sup
plant such an absolutely fair record credited
to L. E. Myers.
The ludicrous side ot affidavits was displayed
when the A. A. U. accepted Dobm's figures,
and the smile worn by those when thev gave
credence to the figures can jnst about offset
the frown assumed by the same parties in
handling Cary's record. It is doubtful if the
A A. U. in its present state would accept
Dohm's record. When Dohm ran his race,
which was simply a club affair, the A A IT.
was in a chaotic state. It was warring with
theN. A A A A. and both these bodies were
putting their best loot foremost to impress
people with their solidity and prestige. Dohm's
record was quite a feather in the cap of the A.
A. V., but us acceptance struck people at the
time as being more of a political move than
anything else. The A A U. at present is in no
need of adopting policy, so far as accepting
records is concerned. It is strong enough to
stand on its merits, and this state alone may
account for the improbability of such a record
as Dobm's or Cary's being now recognized by it.
Trotting Law in England.
The recent turf law enacted in England re
garding American trotters and the conditions
nnder which they might compete for purses or
premiums has been changed as follows:
That on and after February 1, 1891, the owner
of any horse, trotting or pacing, imported from
the United States of America will be required
to lodge with the secretary before entering a
certificate of identity, pedigree and record,
signed by the Secretary of the National Trot
ting Association, and, if imported from any
other country where a proper constituted rul
ing association is established, a like certificate
will be required, signed by its properly ap
pointed officer. Foreign horses tbat have
trotted in Great Britain on a Union track
previous to February L 1S9L, are exempt from
this requirement.
Dempsey and Fltzsimmons.
NewYork. November 16. Now that Jack
Dempsey and Bob Fitzsimmons are really
matched, sports around town are beginning to
talk up Dempsey. just as did they prior to his
famous meeting with La Blanche at the Call
fornia Athletic Club. The purse. $12,000. of
fered by the New Orleans Club, is by long odds
the largest ever contended for by middle
weights. It is very generally believed that
Dempsey lost his last battle with the Marine
through carelessness. He had beaten the
Marine once and felt quite able to do so again.
He allowed him to enter the ring weighing 12
pounds more than himself- In his present
match with Fitzsimmons the limit of weight is
specifically set forth as 154 pounds.

DEATH OF EICHAED DEWHT7RST.
An Old Resident of Allegheny Passes Away
Peacefully Tills Morning.
Richard Dcwhurst, father of James B.
Dewhurst, of the firm of Haworth & Dew
hurst, passed peacefully away at 1 o'clock
this morning at his son's residence, 118
"Western avenue, Allegheny in his 83d
year.
Mr. Dewhurst was born in England, and
had lived in Allegheny lor nearly 60 years.
He was a carpenter by trade, and superin
tended the building of many of the oldest
residences and business houses in this city.
He leaves a wife and two children, James
B. Dewhurst and Mrs. Anna May Haworth.
CBAZED BY POVERTY,
A Man Steals Cabbages for His Starring
Wife and Child.
A pathetic little incident was brought to
light in Magistrate Succop's police court
yesterday. Thomas Riley was charged with
stealing two cabbages from a store. As he
was called to the bar by the judge, a forlorn
lookiug woman, leading a child, rushed
into the room aud pleaded with tears in her
eyes for the release of her husband.
Mrs. Kiley and her child were sick at
home, aud not a penny in the house to buy
anything to eat. Riley was out of work,
and crazed by the thought of his darlings
suffering from hunger, stole the cabbages.
Judge Succop discharged Riley, while some
thing like a tear glistened as it rolled down
his cheek during the relation of the woman's
sad tale.
PUTTING OK A FEW ALES.
The Southside Police Will Allow No Undue
Familiarity.
The Southside police are putting on airs
these days and won't allow familiarities.
Simon Berry tramped on an officer's hat by
way of salutation, and the officer got mad
and it cost Simon SI 40.
Thomas Wilson merely called Officer
Conley "Irish," and Conley resented the act
and pulled .poor Thomas in, and smiled
when the victim'nad to pay $6 40.
F0S GE0WLIKQ AT HIMSELF
A Southside Man is Arrested and Fined SI
and Costs.
John Mackey, of the Southside, has be
come a pessimist, and all through Judge
Succop's action. The other night John sat
on a door-step, growling to himself, so the
commitment reads. An officer arrested
John lor insulting himself.
But that was not the worst blow. When
his case was called before Judge Succop the
latter fined bim SI and costs. John wants
'to know whose business it is if he growls at
himself.

burned down the wooden triangle on which
they had so often been lashed and flogged, and
played the drum where the whipping place
once stood. Jameson, hearing of the Major's
death, repaired to Tippoo Tib and demanded
that Sanga be executed, which was dnly carried
out. The Arabs said they were very sorry, bus
Jameson said thai Major Barttelot had killed
himself.
One of the old Arabs, Salim Masoodi, stated
that according to their own custom Sanga ongbt
not to die. A man who ill treated another
man's wire is liable to death by the woman's
husband, who, however, is not punished, the
indignity offered the woman being sufficient
reason to acquit him. This is the spirit of the
Arab and Swabili law, but the Major, being a
white man, the law became inapplicable. After
the Major's death the whole expedition became
disorganized. The Manyemas deserted on all
sides from Banalga, and when Stanley returned
he found Bonny, the sole white man, in com
mand, and a few wretched Zanzibaris. who
were covered with sores and reduced to mere
skeletons by the many months of ill treatment
and hunger. Not one of them was able to carry
a load.
Little Sondi' s Death Kick.
Sondi, Barttelot's little boy. was suffering
from a festering wound on the leg, which he
had received from a kick by the Major. He
was going to wash the Major's feet one day,
and had taken off one sock and boot, nut the
water proved too cold, and Barttelot resented
this by kicking Sondi with his heavy boot, cut
ting the boy's skin to the bone, and making a
wound, which tho boy's impoverished condi
tion soonirendered a festering sore, from which
he eventually died.
The Zanzibaris and Arabs said that had thero
been a man in command at Yambuya who had
exercised due tact in dealing with the Arabs,
and had that roan been honest of purpose and
capable of proving that he was so. men to carry
loads would bave been forthcoming from Tip
poo Tib, aud the rear column would have
moved soon after Stanley. But tbs-Arahs say
that the action of Jameson and Barttelot de
stroyed all confidence. Jameson offered money
of his own if Tib would make an effort to sup
ply the Ifien, but he said in tbat case he would
have the sole direction of tho enterprise and
command the rear column. Barttelot said tbat
Stanley was dead, but he wanted to reach
Etnin,- and would take a shorter road to Wad
elai than the pathway made by Stanley. Bart
telot's well-known harshness and inability to
deal with the blacks, all prevented the recruit
ment of men and the fulfillment of Tippoo
Tib's promise to Stanley.
Sonny's Defiance of Barttelot.
Troup did all he could to alleviate the suffer
ings of the Zanzibaris, and protested against
Barttelot's inhuman conduct, buthe was con
fined to bis bed by severe sickness and Bartt
elot ordered that nope of the Zanzibaris were
to visit bis hut. Bonny also made a protest,
ana on one occasion the Major ordered the
Sondanese to arrest Bonnv for insubordination,
he having prevented Barttelot by force from
striking some one. But the Sondanese did not
obey, and Bonny threatened to defend himself.
The following statement, showing how the
above narrative was obtained, accompanies
the story of the narrator:
The above narrative was supplied by Salch
Bin Osman, Mr. Stanley's Zanzibar servant.
He tells his story of what he learned concern
ing these events from Zanzibaris, Arabs, Man
yemas and Soudanese, who.witnessed thediffer
ent events enumerated. I havo carefully
translated, from Kinswahali, Salcb's words,
and do hereby solemnly declare that I have
truthfully worded all he said. E. J. Glavz.

TBT DUNIjAP'S CABLE COMFANT 1
London. November 16. The following
is the first installment of the official log
book kept by Barttelot, Jameson and Bonny
at Yambuya camp. It is upon the state
ments contained in this logbook that Stan
ley bases his censure of the officers of the
rear column:
June 11, 1SS8 Let t Yambuya Camp at 7 P. at.
A slight excitement prevailed. At first there
was 4 firing of guns, etti, but this was soon
checked and the Zanzibar column went ahead.
Jameson was in advance. Bonny in the center
and Barttelo'. in the rear. The Manyema
column under Mimi Soma! started later, but
soon canght up. We reached Camp Watuka
in a village called Sudcs village at noon. One
man was sick and had been left behind on the
road, but found his way into camp later. All
the loads were correct. Tho expedition left
Yambuya with a strength as follows: Zanzi
baris carriers, 108; boys, 7: Manyemas, 430;
total, 545, with 22 Soudanese, maklntr 567 in all.
The distance traveled was about five miles,
and the road was fair through Shambas. the
best roadways, however, being througb the
streams. Our general direction was southeast.

a village, two miles short All loads in and all
but one man. The "same order of march was
maintained as yesterday and the distance
traveled was about five miles. The road led
through a dense jungle: path tortuous, with
much fallen timber, which delayed the men.
Occasionally deep water, bog. .Men carried
well. General direction, S. E. WeatbPr fine.

The rear reached camp at 1120 A. M. Men
marched well. Camp in fourth village from
Salas and the last before reaching Nasaro, be
ing Seal's station, distance four days. Mimi
Soma! told me he would be unable to come
to-morrow, as many of his men were
a long way behind and would not
come in until to-morrow, when they would
bave got sufficient food for four days. So I
have arranged that Barttelot and Benny go
ahead with the Zanzibaris while Jameson re
mains. Sooiai will accompany him as far as
Nasara Bir ScaPs. where he shall await me.
Some of the Zanzibaris demurred at starting
to-morrow, but it was only those commonly
called Gney Goeys. All loads in and all men

Fourteen Men Desert,
June 15 Leftcampat5:30it the morning. Lost
the road, but after hours of search, found it
again. Camped at the stream, four, miles from
last camp. On arrival at camp found 11 men
and one load absent. We surmised tbat they
had run away. The two were Sala's sons, and
I think Sala put them np to it. The missing
load is one of our most important, viz., our
medicines. Barttelot walked back to our last
camp.swhere Jameson awaits Somai's men,
and acquainted both him and Somai with the
facta. Latter said Jameson had been In pursuit
of the Dahomey man who had passed tbrongh
the back camp and had all but caught him. He
hopes to bave him to-nlgbt. Shall do all pos
sible to catch these men and shall make ter
rible example of two. Have written to Jame
son to go to Sala's to night. Shall await their
results. The road is eood through the open.
The forests are much intersected with elephant
paths. The distance traveled was about four
miles. The general direction, E. S. E. Weather
line, thunder and showery towards evening.
Officer to-day, Barttelot: next duty, Bonny.
E.M.B.
June 16 Halted camp, which is situated
close to the water slope, facing east. Called
roll each morning, 11 absent. Had palaver
with the Muniumpas last night: thev said they
thought many more would desert. Received a
letter from Jameson, who was on the point of
starting for' Sala's. Mimi Somal came and saw
me this morning. He expressed his regret at
what had happened about the deserters. In
the afternoon I went over to Somai's camp and
found Jameson had not returned. Somal
asked me to let him have one of my earners,
called Sberifoo, who Is his ton, and be would
give another carrier in his place. I acceded.
Weather fine, cool. Officer to-day, Bonny; next
Barttlet. E. M. B.
Efforts to Recapture Deserters.
June 17 Halted at Somai's to enable him to
catch the deserters. In the morning went to
Mimi Somai's camp and, found Jameson had
returned from Salim Mahomed's camp, having
slept at Sala's camp. Nothing had been heard
from the deserters of June 15, or their loads.
Sala professed entiro ignorance, and by Jame
son's account he was much terrified at the
news.
Salim Mahomed said if wc waited five
days be would guarantee the loads and rifles.
A big chief called Cullenla, of Oochootonoo,
on the north bank of the Welle Mobangi, was
with Salim. Mahomed was on bis way to Stan
ley Falls to make arrangements concerning the
subjugation and taimg of Mobangi. I told
Somal that I should start to-morrow and he
and Jameson should bait at the present camp
until the Z2d, when, if the loads were not found,
they were to come to Nasaro Bir ScaPs village,
where they would find me awaiting them. I
asked Somai to write to Salim Mahomed and
ask him to do his utnost to get the loads and
rifles, and if they w.;re forthcoming I would
distribute 500 urMakoa among his men, should
Salim get the loads, and if Mimi Somai had
started, he was to send them to Stanley Falls.
I wrote Tippoo Tib's secretary. M. Baert, and
asked him to ask Tippoo Tib to do all he could
to get the loads and rifles back, supposing tbat
the men had gone to Abdullah Karango's with
10.000 caps; so I wrote Tippoo Tib to say that the
Men Would Nover Have Deserted
unless they bad encouragement to do so and a
place of refuge. The man reported as a de
serter on the march between Suede's and Sala's
village was found by Jameson sick at Salim
Mahomed's, where he bad been sent by Sala.
Also were found two rifles. These Jameson
brought back. He informed mo that the sick
we bad left behind al. Yambuya bad all gone
to Stanley Falls. Tho Wadibon who left us at
Suede's village is aliio at Salim Mohamed's.
The last village where) we halted is called Loo

guide, who was sick, appeared half-witted, and
then acknowledged he did not know the road;
so 1 led the men myself Oown the stream at the
foot of the camp, wlurh flowed in a northerly
direction. We proceeded down it, and had
gone about four miles when we were told the
men were not coining, so we baited and waited,
and after 1 hours the rear column came up.
The men said they could not go by water, as
the water traveling was bad and wore them
out. We proceeded another 200 yards and
landed on the eastern shore, marching
upon an elephant track and halted 200

ran N. E. and was well blazed, and on the short

DIED INHIS ARMS.
HERBERT WARD DESCRIBES THE DEATH
OF JAMESON AT BANGALA,
And Says the Circulation of the Cannibal
Story Caused It J. B. Pond Shows Up
Ward's Change of Heart Toward Major
Barttelot.
fBT DUKtAP'S CABLE COMPANT.I
London, November 16. Herbert Ward
comes to the front again in the Stanley
Barttelot controversy with the following
statement:
In view of all that has been said regarding
the cannibal story and Jameson, I desire to say
a few words regarding my personal acquaint
ance with him. In October, 1SS7, 1 had a serious
illness, and without doubt owe my life to the
tender care of Jameson, 1 saw very little of
Jameson after that. In August, 18S8, 1 was at
Bangala when he arrived after the canoe jour
ney down the Congo from Stanley Falls, 500
miles distant.
This was after the death of Barttelot. Jame
son was in an unconscious condition at the time
of bis arrival, and during that and the subse
quent day he was conscious for a few minutes
at a time, and made some remarks of an inco
herent character, not touching upon this inci
dent. I do not hesitate to say, however, that
anxiety of mind was caused by the knowledge
that this Kasonco Incident had been circulated
among the Europeans on the Congo, and had
much to do with his death,
Jnme&on's Deatli at Bangala.
lie was in very poor health and auxmic, and
was naturally debilitated by months of priva
tion and the canoe journey down the Congo.
Fever took a firm hold of him, in consequence
of his mind being ill at ease, and he reached
Bangala to die in my arms, 3G hours after his
arrival. At present I am engaged in writing
a clear and impartial account of my personal
connection with the rear guard, and I intend
expressing my views without animus either
against Stanley or Barttelot. When the ac
count is completed, it will be fully circulated.
What I have said upon the Stanley-Uarttclot
controversy has been said on the spur of the
moment, in order to justify mysel f whei e I ap
pear in bad light in the matter.
Herbert Ward.
The following letter was addressed to Mr.
Stanley, and that gentleman has kindly
placed a copy of it at the disposal of
Dunlap's Cable Company for publication':
New Y'ork City, November 12, 1800.
To Henry M. Stanley, Esq. :
Dear Sir During Herbert Ward's stay in
America I saw a great deal of him, and of
course our conversation often turned to Afri
can matters. At times the rear column of the
Emin Relief Expedition became the topic L not
having been an officer of that expedition, could
say nothing from personal experience, but the
spirit of Ward's conversation 'at all times con
demned Major Barttelot's mismanagement at
Yambuya, His harsh, inhuman treatment of
Zanzibaris and Soudanese, who were lashed up
and flogged for the feeblest offense, his incon
sistent, high-handed and tactless dealingswith
Tmpoo Tib and bis tyrannical behavior to the
other white officers of the rear column were
often mentioned. $
Former Statements of Ward.
All hated him and none had confidence.
Ward was despatched to the coast by Barttelot
with dispatches. Ward said this was simply an
act of ill-feeling on the part of the Major, who
imagined that Ward was a spy and would carry
news of everything to Stanley. Barttelot and
Jameson always held council together, bnt kept
everything secret from the other officers. Ward
could not account for the great change tbat
had come over Barttelot's character, but said
either the long stay at Yambuya under such
miserable circumstances had brutalized him
thoroughly, or be was insane. At all times
Wara's expressions were loyal to you, Mr.
Stanley, whether in private conversation or on
the public platform. He was always regret
ting the failure ot the rear column at Yambuya.
When Ward was sent to the coast, he told me
he remonstrated with Barttelot, pointed out to
him theuselessness of expecting the committee
in London to be able to furnish any fresh in
structions, but Major Barttelot was firm, and
Ward becime convinced that he was sent on
this errand so as not to be thero to accompany
the rear column when it did move forward.
Yours faithfully, J. B. Pond.

A VAGRANPS STORY.
BEING ARRESTED HE TALKS INCOMER.
ENTLY OF HIS CAREER.
He Becomes a Wanderer on the Face of the
Earth and is Pursued for a Murder He
Did Not Commit-Is Probably Insane.
SPECIAL TELXCIIAM TO THE DISPATCIM
Sceanton, November 16. A man giv
ing his name as John West, alias James
Wright, alias "Akron Red," has been sent
to the workhouse for 30 days, while his
queer story and antecedents are investigated.
He was brought here yesterday charged
with snsnicious condect and vagrancy. He
is about 35 years of age.
West said he was born at New Brighton,
Beaver county, and early became a wan
derer on the face of the earth. In the fall
of 1882, be, with two tramps named Sig Mc
Farland and Perry James, robbed a
dwelling at New Brighton, obtaining
a large sum of monev. Shortly after
they robbed a store at Zelienople, about
20 miles from New Brighton. They were
pursued by officers, who found the
body of James along the track, he
having apparently been killed by the cars
while attempting to board them. 'Neverthe
less West say! he was accused of murdering
him, pursued, captured and lodged in jail.
With three others he managed to escape,
and has been hunted by officers ever since.
He confessed that he had served 90 days
in jail at Ionia, Mich., and tbat a little over
a year ago, he was convicted of petty lar
ceny in Cleveland, and was sentenced to 30
days in jail and to pay a fine of $100.
While he was in jail he struck a man with
a file, severely injuring him. He was then
adjudged insane, and was sent to the asy
lum, from which place he escaped April
last.
After hearing the man's story, Chief
Wade concluded that the man was insane.
He talked incoherently about detectives
pursuing him for the murder of James,
and said they drugged him once, and at
another time made the air hot He was
committed as a vagrant, aud meanwhile his
case will be investigated, in order to ascer
tain if he is wanted at New Brighton and
the other Eastern places he talks about.

The moderate storm central in the lake re
gion has passed into Canada. Its northward
movement was due to the high pressure pre
vailing South and East of the lake region.
The high barometer pressure in the West
moved rapidly eastward, connecting with the
high pressure on the Atlantic coast, and bring
ing with it clear cold weather. The contact of
these high areas has produced exceptionally
fine weather from the Atlantic to the Pacific
through'the center of the country. The move
ment eastward bas also forced the cyclone In
the Gnlf to recede to the southward, though
heavy rain has resulted therefrom in the lower
