CARRYING THE SICK.
ZANZIBAR, Nov. 2l.-Stanley, in letter
TO the British consul at Zanzibar in addi-
tlon TO the news already cabled, sent the
following story: Every previous expedi-
ton has seen tightening of its labor upon
nearing sea, but the long string of ham
mock bearers with us now tells a different
tale. Till we can place the poor things in
our company on shipboard there will be no
rest for us. The worst of 1t is that
we have not the privilege of showing
you at Zanzibar tho full extent Of our
la0ors. After carrying them some 600
miles and fighting TO the right and left of
the sick, driving the Warasura from their
prey over range after range of mountains
with every energy on fun strain, they slip
through our hauds and die in their ham
mockS, One lady IS years old, mother Of
Valkiei, died In this manner.
CONTINUOUS FIGHTING.
"In North Usumka, south of Victoria
Nyanza, we had as stirring time for four
days as anywhere on our route. There was
continuous fighting during the greater part
OF the daylight hours. The foolish natives
took an unaccountable prejudice
against Emin's people. They in
sisted that they were cannibals and had
come for no good purpose. Talking
was useless, as any attempt to dis
prove their impression only drove
them into a white, hot rage, and
in their mad hate, fiinging themselves on
us, they suffered severely. / am advised
that the Zomba and Mweine route is the
best for securing abundance of food, and
| therefore propose to adopt it. But as re-
CARDS danger from attacks by The natives,
one road seems to be as bad as another

Regarding Victoria Nyanza, Stanley says
it is l 900 square miles larger than reported
by Spoke, whose statement regarding the
size of The lake was supposed TO be an ex-
aggeration. The Uriji also, which Speke
SO lightly sketched, turns out TO bs very
respectable lake with populated islands.
