tHt IIHITI IN'IitI COHI III IIttt.
BERLIN, August l9.-The North German
Gazette, commenting on the complaint of the
Emin relief committee that the government
first encouraged and now discourages the
committee, says the greater interests of the
empire may have diverted the good will of
the government and that the fact that DR..
Peters, instead of Captain Wissmann, is at
the head of the expedition has also lessened
the governments confidence in the success
OF the project. Regarding the alleged en-
croachments of the British, the paper says
any grievance of German traders in East
Africa will be duly adjusted and there is no
necessity for Indignation, which, on the con-
trary, will do harm. The extent of German
territory in Africa, it says, is already out of
proportion to the forces dlsposable for its
protection.
