WINKED AT SLAVERY.
The British East African Com
pany Put in Bad Light.

Special Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Dee. 27.-No little indigna-
ton is expressed at the offices of the
English East African Company in this
city regarding the report that came
to-day from Zanzibar to the effect that
the company not only winked at slavery
but actually contributed its assistance
to the Arab slave dealers to carry on
the Infamous traffic. The company
hastens to deny a report which, If be-
lieved to be true. would let loose upon
it, an overwhelming torrent of British
public opinion. The stout denials that
any such contract as reported exists,
however, are considered by many to be
diaphanous, and these doubling ones do
not hesitate to express the belief that
much crooked work has been done in
Africa by this organization for the
sake of rendering the channels
of trade less difficult of success.
The company, nevertheless, reiterates
its denials, and asserts that somed is
affected trader, who has not been al
lowed to import slaves, has fabricated
the yarn to revenue himself. Mr.. Me
kinnon, secretary of the company, Is at
present in Scotland, and his subordi-
mates in London refuse to talk OF the
matter, contenting themselves by mere
" denying the statements and denounc-
ing them as atrOciOus lies.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-ln an inter
view to-day the Persian minister said
that "the purpose of the king i'll sending
a minister here was to make CONNER
cial compacts to the interest OF both
countries. Your minister to Persia has
encouraged us to take this step, and we
hone to open up a mutually valuable IN
terchanee of commerce between the two
countries. We would rather American
enterprise would find profit in the de-
velopment of our railroads and tele-
graphs than that they should fall into
the hands OF nations at rivalry with us.
You must have cur products, and yon
buy them from other people at four
or five prices. We want your prod
ucts. and have to get them IN
directly at greater expense. You might
as well buy directly from us ana sell
directly to us. Our merchants are ready
to bring their goods and wares mere;
They are waiting 10 hear from me. And
our people are ready to buy the products
offered by your merchants and IN
yentors. We make shawls, rugs, car
pets. silks. Yelvets and WOOlenS, Sucn as

have a large mineral wealth, gold, silver
and precious stones. Our diamonds are
fine, and all the turquoise used Ill the

offer things we do not make. The con-
ditions are such as to cOnduce 10 tne

distance not too great-twenty-ilv days

be carried on between the two countries

The limited time fixed for debate. some
Democratic senators are sangulne
enough to think they can defeat the
measure in the senate BY square vote.
This hope is not very generally enter
tanned and the Democrats in the house
expect certainly to debate the bill there.
No meeting has been held to consider
the policy to be followed except that
informally the Democrats have come TO
the understanding that when the bill
comes to the house they will have to

HARRISON is A HUSTLER.
Notwithstanding interruptions by
Callers, He Keeps Close to the
Work in Hand.


Work in Hand.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Dec. 27.-WoFls
in Gen. Harrison's library went on at
rapid rate to-day, and much was accom-
plished. The general himself kept
pretty close to the work in hand. and
was interrupted by few callers only.
The most important visit to-day was
that of four West Virginia gentlemen,
headed by n. B. Scott, a member of the
national committee. Two of the gen.
tlemen arrived last night and the other
two this morning. The object of their
visit is unknown, but they spent quite
a little while with the general.
1t had reference to the cOndi-
ton of affairs on the south. and they
left. expressing themselves highly
pleased with their reception and the re-
suit of their call. This evening was
given up to the members of the State
Teachers association now IN session. A
large number of them called, and were
received by the general and Mrs. Harri-
son. The association meets annually
here during the holidays, and generally
calls together from 1000 to 1900 of
those directly engaged in the work of
education. The callers this evening
were highly pleased with the reception
given them. 1t has been rumOred that
Senator Allison is expected here some
time during the night or tomorrow, but
authority cannot be found for the ru-
nor. The mail of the general continues
to be very heavy, and requires the con-
slant work of himself, his private sec
rotary and Stenographer TO attend to it.

PRENTICE Is PIQUED.
The New York Millionaire Seeks
to Correct Misstatements Con-
corning Duluth Property.


corning Duluth Property.
Special to the Globe.
ASHLAND, Wis.,. Dec. 2s.-Frederick
Prentice, the New York millionaire,
who is plaintiff in big real estate suit
pending in Duluth involving half of the
Third division valued at several mill
lions of dollars. has written letter to
the editor of the Daily News asking
him to deny the story printed i'll the
Duluth HERALD and sent to newspapers
OF st. Paul and Minneapolis and other
cities. as it is all a fabrication. Mr..
Prentice says he bought the land from
benjamin Armstrong, now of Ashland,
to whom it was decided by Chief Buffalo
in 1854.
E"I did not get my deeds from the
heirs" Whites Mr.. Prentice, las the dis
patch states, nor was it bought for 800,
or $500, but for 5000 The government
gdid not deny patents, but issued them
on the same land selected by Buffalo,
with the exception of part of aquarter
section claimed by Nettleton, for which
the government gave claimants other
land. Again, my suit was never thrown
out of court. nor am l claiming any
other lands than those patented under
treaty and land recognized by the
government as Buffalo's selection. Nor
was Chief Justice Waite relative of
mine. In fact. the whole article is
fabrication of misStatements." In con-
Guiding Mr.. Prentice says: Il have
avoided taking notice of newspaper
articles and would not of this if it did
not seem malicious. | have conducted
my suits quietly to avoid injuring Du-
luth property, as | feel very certain it is
only a matter of time when | or my
heirs will sustain my claim to the undi-
vided one-half of the third division of
Duluth. The case comes up in the
United States court at st. Paul at the
June term.

VILIATED BY FRAUD.
Secretary Villas Sets Aside a Ger
tiiication of Swamp Lands.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-The secre-
tary of the interior to-day rendered a
decision in the case of the State of Ore
ron VS.. United States, in which is i'll
yolyed about 90, 800 acres of land in the
Lake View land district, comprising
what is known as Swamp Land List No.
3. 1t appears from the records that
these lands Injured to the state as swamp
lands, under the act of Sept. ~, 1880,
as extended by the act of March r. 1860.
Prior to certiticatiOn the greater part OF
these lands were sold by the state to
various parties in large bodies:
UDon the reports of special agents of
the department, certifcation was finally
made. Subsequently il was reported to
the department that the reports of Spe-
cial Agent Ankeny and State Agent
Whitaker were false, and fraudulent,
and that a large part of the lands de-
scribcd in these reports as SwampS were
really high and dry. An investigation
was ordered. and Special Agent Shack
clford was directed TO make personal
examination. His report shows that of
the 90. 500 acres, comprising list No. 5,
over "a 900 acres can in no wise be
clasSed as swamp, and that of this latter
amount over 10000 acres are situated on
hills OF steep mountains OF sage brush
deserts. This report was duly verified,
and an oral hearing ordered, in
which the state was represented by
counsel. The secretary reviews in de-
tail the evidence and the law applicable
to the ease, and finds that the certitica-
ton by Secretary Teller was procured
by fraud and that had Teller known the
facts in the case as they have since been
Iovclonnd thp pprtificatiOn would never
have been made. The secretary orders
the certifcation set aside and directs
the commissioner of the general land
office to prepare another list which
shall contain only lands known to be
swamp. As 10 the other lands, an in
vestigation is ordered and such lands in
the list rs are found to be not swamp
are ordered to he restored to the public
domain, subject TO any rights which
may have attached to them under the
