LONDON, July 21.-Sir Francis De
VI inton, president of the Emin Bey Re-
lief association, in an interview to-day
regarding the statement of Sir Richard
Burton, the African explorer, that the
''Nhite Pasha' who has arrived III the
Bahr-El-GhaZel province is Emin Bey.
and not Henry NJ. Stanley, said: 1.-The
last authentic news received stated that
Emin Bey was at Wadelai on the Nile,
and we know that Stanley left the
Congo on his march towards Emin just
year ago, and in few days Stanley
ilized world. Stanley hoped to be in
communication with Emin by the
18th of last August. In a
letter dated Noy. 2, Emiu stated
that up to that date he had heard
nothing whatever of Stanley or his eX-
pedition. Recently certain Arabs, re-
turning from the mountainous region of
upper Aruwimwi, told the commander
of the camp at Yambunga that they had
met deserterS from the expedition,
among them being two Soudanese, who
formed part of the escort. Other infor-
nation is said to have reached Yam
bunga from deSerterS, Of whom one had
returned to village only a few leagues
distant from the camp. But in neither
case have these deSerterS themselves
been seen, and it may be taken for
granted that the Arabs, who want to re-
serve Central Africa exclusively for
themselves as a KIND OF
HUMAN GAME PRESERVE,
would gladly seize any opportunity of
spreading exaggerated i'll news about
the fate of the expedition. Stanley I'M
doubtedly intended, ii he met with no
serious obstacle, to relieve Emin Bey
first and then proceed to khartoum to
rescue the unfortunate European pris-
onerS there. Now, unless this white
PaSha" story is an absolute Pigment,
the white Pasha" can be no one but
Stanley. But if it be Stanley, some
thing extraordinary has happened. Stan
ley set out from AruwimWl last June
for the Albert N'yanZa. When he gGt
there he meant to put his steel whaling
boat together and to set out nortnward
by water for Wadelai. Now he has
turned up in a province some hundreds
of miles to the nOrthward of that
place, and. instead of marching 500
miles. lie lluSI have UldTCuGu SOlnG-
thing like 1000. What has happened?
When the bearers of the last authentic
news from Stanley left the expedition
last August he was encamped within
about eight days march of the Mabode
country, and was advancing directly
towards the western shore of the Albert
N'yanza. He was only about 200 miles
from that lake nearly a year ago; the
lake was his goal; and now we hear of
him in the Bahr-El- GhaZel. We can
only suppose that he found the country
between the upper Aruwimi and the
Albert N'yanZa nothing but vast
morass and absolutely impossible. Last
summer Emin sent two parties of ten
men each to the Albert N'yanZa on pur-
pose to get news of Stanley. They seem
to have found none, or Emin would
have given it. 1t looks, therefore, as if
Stanley had been
OBLIGED TO CHANGE HIS OBJECT
altogether, and had turned northward
from the Mabode country instead of
following the line he had previously
taken, and pressing on towards the
east. What facts are known. therefore,
point to the general conclusion that
after pushing eastward. or rather east
northeast, from Yambunga for some 20C
or 800 miles, Stanley found further
