| his famous descent Of the river. lie is the
,,ost powerful chief known in the region be
,,,oen Lake Tanganyika and Stanley Falls.
Ie was probably responsible for the assault
mon the European station at the latter point
which preceded Mr.. SANKEY'S return to the
Congo Valley. Tippoo lib resembled in his
authority over native races and in his char
actor and occupation Zobehr, whom General
Gordon was anxious to have as an ally at
Khartoum Mr.. Stanley knew that he could
do nothing without his Zobehr and thought
that he could purchase the slaye-trader's sup
port by giving large brides to him and by
investing him with supreme authority at STAN
lev Falls The two men met in Zanzibar
early last year and made bargain. Tippoo
Tib accepted the office of Governor at the
falls. agreeing to defend the station against
Arabs and blacks, and being promised hand
some salary from the Congo Free State. He
also signed contract for supplying 600 car
riers who were to accompany Mr.. Stanley to
Wadelai and to transport Emin's large stock
of ivory to the Congo.
When Mr.. Stanleys expedition assembled the
Congo, Tippoo lib went to the Falls and took
charge of the station with the title OF Gov
ernor. lie was expected to send provisions
and men to the upper Aruwimi while the
column was on the march. The messages re-
ceived by Major Barttelot from the exped-
ton in July stated that supplies and reinforce
ments were urgently needed. Tippoo lib
commanded two of the four approaches to
Wadelai and apparently was able to send
supplies to the Aruwimi Valley but neglected
to hold to his agreement. If disaster has
overtaken Mr.. Stanley, his Zobehr will prob
ably be held responsible for it, since through
inaction or treachery on his part the progress
of the expedition has been retarded aid its
resources crippled and exhausted. Tippoo lib
was willing while in Zanzibar to agree to alb
stain from slave-traffic at Stanley Falls and to
take arms against slave-raiders. 1t is probable
that when he arrived at the station and as
serted his authority as Governor the instincts
of the old slave-hunter revived. Possibly
he ascertained that he could make more money
in the slave trade than he could by supplying
Mr.. Stanley with provisions and transporting
Emins seventy-five tons of ivory across coun-
try to the Congo. In any event, this is as
plausible an explanation as can be offered for
his treachery by which the success of the re-
lief expedition has been imperilled.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1888-06-21
ST4NLEY IND HIS ZOBEHR.

The alarming reports respecting the Stanley
expedition are premonitions of evil inspired by
its ineXplcable delay. While rumorS of the
leaders death have been current in France,
Belgium and England, the only statement of
fact quoted as corroborative proof is the doubt
full intelligence received by Paris journal
from Zanzibar that families Of his native escort
are wearing mourning. This vague report
itself requires cOnfirmati on-indeed to-day S
dispatches from Zanzibar discredit it alto
gether--and even if it be trustworthy it is not
conclusive respecting Mr.. SANKEY'S fate.
Major Barttelot, commanding the little gar
rison at the mouth of the Aruwimi, has written
a letter to friend in London, expressing
grave apprehension Of disaster, but the facts
on which he bases his judgment have not been
revealed. Mr.. Ward, one of his assistants,
will soon arrive in England with dispatches
from the post containing the latest news from
the upper Congo. 1t is now full year since
Mr.. Stanley landed at that point and entered
upon his perlous enterprise. Since July no
direct information has boon received from
him. Deserters from his column reported him
to be alive early in October. On November =
Emn sent dispatches from Lake Albert, stat
ing that no tidings of the expedition had been
received. Mr. Stanley had confidently ex-
pected to reach Wadelai during October, and
the protracted delay as well as the lack Of
decisive information alike tend to excite grave
alarm.
The only conjecturcs which have been
formed respecting the cause of delay or pos
sible disaster have indicated treachery on the
part of Mr. Staney's ally TipDoO lib. This
is the mercenary chief and slave-trader who
escorted the explorers caravan across country
to the upper Congo in 1877, when he made

President to ten minutes each but the Con-
vention rejected the proposition by q large
majority. Chicago is hot, however, and the
delegates are impatient; so to-day there VIII
probably be disposition to cut oratory short
and settle down to business. This is the more
likely to be the case since the rules adopted,
if strictly enforced, will limit all speeches to
five minutes. The Committee on Credentials
reported in favor of the Malone delegates-at-
large from Virginia, and Of the Wise delegates
representing the districts in which there were
contests, except the IXth. A minority report
was in favor of all the Malone delegates. A
long discussion ensued, ending with the adop-
ton of the majority report. The Malone dele
gates from the IXth District were seated, so
that Virginia is represented in the Convention
by fourteen Of Mahone's opponents and ten OF
his adherents The uncertainty regarding the
baloting is as great as ever. Apparently, the
movement in favor Of Mr.. Depew is declining,
and his chances are now placed on a par with
those of Judge Gresham, The strength OF
the other candidates shows no material change.
Our correspondent inclines to the belief that
the chances favor either Sherman or Harrison.
Judge Thurston's emphatic words regarding
Mr.. Blaine have provoked considerable COM
ment, but what he said is explained by him
as having no special significance, except that
Mr. Blaine's decision should be respected by
the Convention.

THE ENpEROFS ADDRESSES.

Undue stress is laid abroad upon the young
Emperors proclamations to army, navy and
people. He is without military experience
apart from the routine of the parade ground
and suddenly finds himself at the head of an
army of over two millions of soldiers, stand
ing in the place of his grandfather and father,
one the great soldier-king who carried the
sword of Frederick the Great to victory, and
the other one of the few great Generals since
Napoleon. This callow military Prince, who
had never seen smoke rise from battlefield,
naturally addressed the fighting services with
ELUSIVE ardor and, undaunted by his mex
perience, arrogantly informed the mighty host
Of trained warriors standing guard over the
interests of the Fatherand that he and they
were born for each other Emperor Frederick,
in his turn, had not offered incense on the altar
Of miltarsm, but he was General whose
victories in war had converted him into SIN
cere champion of peace. Emperor William Ill.
was an untried hero of the drill-rOom and
officers quarters. following closely the two
great sodier-Kings of the century. He could
only point with pride to his illustrieus an
cestors, and take the hattering JUNCTION to his
soul that military genius, like sovereignty, was
exuberance of his proclamations are signs Of
self-consciousness rather than of restless am
biton and desire for war.
The address to the people is queter in tone
than these proclamations to the army and the
navy, although the idea of sovereignty is again
sharply accumulated. If surmse may be
hazarded, we may conjecture with reason that
Prince Bismarck wrote the later message from
the throne. while the earlier addresses were
from the Emperors own hand and reflected
the spontaneous sympathy with arms and cam
paigns which swayed the mind Of the untried
successor of two soldier-Sovereigns when he
was called to the throne. In little while,
when he has grown accustomed to the respon-
sibilities as well as the prc-eminence OF his
kingly Office the renown and proud achieve
ments of his ancestors will suffer him to sleep
quietly and to be commonplace sovereign.
Meanwhile, Prince Bismarck exchanges com
pliments with the foreign Embassies and sends
abroad confident assurances that the succession
of the new monarch will not affect the prospects

PPINCETON.S NEW PRESIDENT.

The most interesting event Of the college
commencement season is the accession OF DE-.
Patton to the presidency of Princeton, in the
place of the venerable scholar to whom that
institution chiefly owes its growth from a
provincial school to famous university. 1t
was well understood at the time of his election
that the trustees had chosen a man who could
be depended on to promote the advancement
of Princeton along the lines laid down by DIR.
McCosh and there was no reason to suppose
that DIR. Patrons inaugural address, to which
we give elsewhere all the space which the
pressure of political news permits, would make
any startling disclosure of novel theories in
education and discipline. But there was
nothing perfunctory or commonplace in the
discourse by which the new president justified
the expectations of his hearers. His address
was comprehensive and penetrating inter-
probation of the principles which have presided
over the intellectual and material growth Of
the college, and upon which its most devoted
friends rely for its symmetrical development
in the future.
DR.. Patton adheres to the belief that the
true test of q university is its success in fitting
men to make the most Of their lives; that
general cultivation rather than specific train
ing is its true function, and that the social
system will never outgrow the need of those
elements which mature only in "the still air
of delightful studies" But the outline of
university life which he sketches is not too
rigid to afford ample room for expansion, and
we regard with particular satisfaction his de-
mand for the prompt and full equipment of
the department of political science No branch
of knowledge is more important to American
citizens, and none has been more neglected in
American colleges. 1t is founded on studies
which the most conservative curriculum en-
braces, and yet appeals directly to the most
radical professors of "the new education"
We shall hope to see this department under
DR.. Patton's care and encouragement rapidly
attaining the position which it occupies in the
higher education of France and Germany.
Princeton could take no single step which
would go further to convince the friends of
the college that DR.. McCosh's successor was
wisely chosen.
