LONDON, Sept. ia conference of Radi-
cal Unionists was held at Bradford to-day.
Lord Harrington wrote letter to the confer
ence congratulating the party upon the sue
cess of the Unionists. He said everything
that had occurred since the rejection of the
home rule bill confirmed the soundness of
the judgment that had inspired the action of
the Unionists. The policy of their oppo-
nents, he declared, had shown itself to be
more and more based on disorder and law
lessness. The events of the last session of
Parliament had proved that the Unionist al
lance was capable of providing the country
with legislative policy which was of dis
tinctly popular character and practical char
acter. As long as the Unionists continued
their duty of depressing crime, while SEEK
ing TO satisfy the legislative wants of the
people, the party would resist the attacks of
the enemies of England and Ireland. The
conference adopted resolutions approving
the policy OF the government and affirming
the necessity of an improved organization of
the party.

Mr.. Chamberlain, in an address to the con-

Deceived the Emfn Relief Expedition
SENT to Search for stanley.
LONDON, Sept. 19.-Major Barttslot In his
last letter to the Emin relief committee I'M
der date of June 4, just previous to the start
ing of the expedition, complains that Tippoo
lib had broken faith; that he promised to
bring eight hundred men and had brought
only four hundred, and that he showed q
decided distaste for the affair and adopted
tactics to delay the starting of the expedi-
ton, particularly insisting upon tightening
the loads of the carriers, especially of ammu-
milton. The loss of stores resulting from
Tippoo's action and from the fact that only
half the expected number of carriers were
supplied was most serious. Barttelot speaks
well OF all the European officers concerned.
Tippoo lib had furnished an influential head
man for the expedition, in whom Barttslot
appeared to have confidence. The expedition
was largely composed of Manyemas.
THINKS STANLEY Is STILL ALIVE.
BarteIlot says that that to the best of his
belief Stanley is not dead, but that he cannot
get any news of him; that he intends to take
the same route, and if he tails to hear of
Stanley to press on to Wadelai and AJAX Emin
to ioin him in the search. "Tippoo lib, )" he
says, "has not the remotest intention of help
ing US any more. But to withdraw now
would be pusillanimous, and will therefore
proceed to the best Of my ability" He asks
the committee to suspend all Judgment on
all actions past, present and future until he
himself or Jameson returns home. Jamesons
diligence and eheeriness are beyond praise.
Tippoo promised to send a messenger after
Bartellot If necessary within month after
/ the starting OF the expedition. Bartellot
says: There are many things would wish
| to speak on. No doubt will do so should /
be permitted to return home. He again res
fers to Tppoo's broken faith.

Mr.. Edmunds also offered joint resolu-
1 ton appropriating $4,000 to be expended
United States for the relief of the suffering
| caused by yellow fever now prevailing in the
| State of Florida, and asked for its immediate
consideration. It was obvious, he said, from
| the public reports about which there could
| be no doubt, that that most dangerous and
| fatal plague was rapidly extending, not only
1 in the stricken State of Florida, but into adj
Jacsnt States, and that a vast amount of suf-
| fering was being caused thereby. After
brief remarks by Senators Call and Pasco the

robbery"
Mr.. Stewart next addressed the Senate,
expressing views directly the opposite of
those put forward by Mr.. Jones but declar-
1 ing that the existing stagnation and depres-
| sion of prices did not result from the tariff,
4 but from the demonstration of silver.
At the close of Mr.. Stewards speech seve-
| raj bills were passed and the Senate at $40
1 adjourned.
