LONDON, Nov. 25.-Mr. Stanley In his let
tor gives extracts from Lieut.. Jephson's report
concerning the state OF affairs In Emin's prov
ince after Mr.. Stanley's first meeting with
Emin. Lieut. Jephson says that Emin's troops
we're insubordinate, and twice tried to make
the PAsha a prisoner. Emin possessed only a
semblance OF authority. but he hid the des-
ysrate state Of his position. or only hinted at
dlflculties which came from the outside. He
made no mention Of mutiny.
his report Lieut. Jephson further says he
10 certain that Emin Is desirous OF quitting the
country. but that he is unable to mako up his
mind whether he had obligations to the people
who had mutinied against him.
Lieut.. Jephson once threatened that he
would advise Mr.. Stanley to arrest and carry
tho Pasha away. Emin replied that he would
do nothing to prevent Lieut.. 3ephson from
pursuing such course.
Mr. Stanley concludes his letter by saying
that all sorts and conditions OF Emin's people
praised his Justice and generosity. but said he
failed to be firm enough. MIR. Stanley prom
ised to forward another letter as soon as pos
sible.
Mr.. Stanley thcn wrote Of the condition OF
things whom he got back to Albert Nyansa:
