DEALT IN SLAVE LABOR.

a Serious Charge Brought Against the
English East Africa Company.
A Zanzibar dispatch says: It has
been discovered that an agreement in
relation to slave dealing exists between
the English East Africa Company, the
sultan of Zanzibar and the Arab slave
dealers of Manbaza. By this agreement
the Arabs are authorized to carry on u
slave trade and to fog or otherwise
punish them. The company upon hir-
ing slaves must make an arrangement
with the owners. The wages of
the slaves must be paid to their
masters. English mission stations are
obliged. under the agreement, to return
been signed the agents of the company,
Mr.. Mackenzie and Gen. Matthews, ac-
companied by a number of ManbaZa
Arabs, went to the Rabal Church mission
station and demanded the surrender of
certain runaways who had taken refuge
there. The missionaries refused to give
them up. The company g agents, there
fore, in order to avoid a collision, paid
$25 for each slave they were unable to
return to their owners. The English
consul has issued proclamation warn
ing all British subjects in Zanzibar
that they will be liable to sew
en- years Imprisonment If they
enter into contracts for slave labor. The
British traders have made a united pro-
test against the order. They cay that
slave labor is the only kind obtainable
in Zanzibar, and that if this kind is cut
off all work must be stopped. In view
of this protest the court will suspend
the enforcement of the proclamation
pending instructions from Lord Sails
bury. The secretary of the English East
Africa Company denies the authenticity
of the story about the agreement. He
says no such compact has been made.
He further states that the only action of
Agent Mackenz has been to pay for
the liberation of ], 400 slaves.

Several WOrkmen In Denver, Col, Killed
in Street Excavation.
At Denver, Col, on the 26th, an acc1-
dent occurred on Fifteenth Street, be-
tween fremont and Court Place, which
resulted in the instant death of at least
four men. Two others were MORALLY
wounded. The Denver Gas Company
had 100 men employed in excavatlng a
ditch, six feet deep, along the side and
underneath the track of the cable-car
line, when suddenly the track for an
entire block fell, crushing and imprison
ing the men underneath. The
men were Immediately set to work
removing the fallen track and four
dead and two badly wounded have
been removed The other men escaped
with more or less bruises. The dead
are: William Haley, married, large
family; N. M. Wilson, married, leaves
large family; Joseph Trainor, leaves
widow; Mike Dillon, single, and an Cn-
known man about 40 years old.
James McKuen was badly crushed
and cannot recover. The excavation
was being made for the purpose of re-
moving a gas-pipe from underneath
the track, and the accident is believed
to be due to carelessness on the part of
the gas company In neglecting to place
proper supports under the track, where
the men were at work

The London Times Offers $50, 900 for
Sheridan's Testimony.
DUBLIN, Dec. 2S.-The Freeman's
Journal, referring to the Parnell COM
mission inquiry says the Times pro-
longed the amount of evidence regard
ing outrages in the hope of securing
testimony to justify the statements made
by Atty Gen. Webster in his opening
address. Feeling the ground slipping
from under its feet; it resolved
upon desperate game to retrieve its
fortunes. With this in view it dis
patched an emissary to America who
discovered Sheridan at Pueblo, Col,
and tried to induce him to 60 to London
and testify before the commission,
promising him that if his evidence
proved satisfactory he would be paid
100000 within an hour after his
examination was concluded. Sheridan
played possum with the agent
for q time and was finally
offered $4,000 down if he would accom-
pany the agent TO England. Sheridan
then positively declined to appear be-
fore the commission, and assured the
agent that he was in no wise DESTROYS to
share the fate of James Carey.

ARE STILL DIGGING.

Nine Thousand Men at Work ON the
Panama Canal.
A Panama dispatch Of the 26th says:
The work on the canal continues, al
though on some sections labor has been
reduced. Altogether some 1000
men have been discharged in
the past two months. owing to
disputes between the canal company
and contractors. It is not expected
that more workmen will be dispensed
with. The high authorities consider a
total suspension of work as very inn
probable. Such a suspension could only
be occasioned by the complete failure
of the reorganization scheme now under
consideration in Paris. There are now
about 5000 laborers actually engaged on
the works. There is no foundation for
the report recently circulated that Is
per cent. of the men now in the employ
of the company would be discharged at
the end of the year.

can Vessel.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 27.-The
brigatine Josefa, which has arrived at
this port from Montego Bay, Jamaica,
brings news of an outrage suffered by
that vessel at the hands of the Spanish
government.
While discharging cargo on her out
ward trip from New York to Arroyo,
Porto Rico, the Spanish custom officials
discovered that twenty packages Of corn
starch marked on the vessels manifest
were missing. After extended search
the goods could not be found
and the vessel was seized by the Span
ish authorities, who held her until fine
of $4,000 was paid, although the value
of the goods in question did not exceed
$50. The master and crew were forced
to suffer many indignities at the hands
Of the governor of the island and
officials under his authority. The
authorities offered to settle the matter
if the captain of the vessel could salts
factorily explain the whereabouts Of
the missing packages. Alter the fine
had been paid it was ascertained
that the missing goods were delivered
by mistake on board the ship Josephus,s
which lay next to the Josefa in New
York, but were placed on the Josefa's
manifest. Explanation was made to the
Spanish authorities and the return of
the fine was requested but was refused,
and the vessel left Porto Rico to load
cargo elsewhere for this city.
James Brett, of New York, managing
owner of the Josefa, has fled COM
Dlalnt against the Spanish government
with Secretary Bavard, and asked that
his immediate attention shall be given
t the matter. 1t will be urged that the
W rships Galena and Yantic shall be
tered to continue their cruise to
