LONDON, Oct 2S.-Sews has reached here
of a fight between French troops and ma
tives in Senegal. Ahmadon resolved to
make supreme effort to capture tue ati-
vanced post of Koniakary. 1t had been
seized by Colonel Archiuard last June, and
had been left under the guard of Lieutenant
Valentine, supported by a sub-Lieutenant
commanding forty SeDegaese fuSlter5 nine
of whom were sick) a navy doctor, two
European non commissioned officers and
four artillerymen, with two small cannon.
On September Sth the defenders Of Konia
kary saw the besiegerS advancing in deep
columns, many of them carrying ladders to
be used in the attack. All the black SOL
ders, though decimated by the artillery
fire, rushed on the block-house at the first
sound of the war-drum. They carried
wall, despite a tremendous fire from the
besieged men. Shouting their wild war
cries, many of them succeeded in planting
their banners at the foot of the viii, but a
well-dlrected fire of cannon, musketry and
shrapnel caused them to falter, then scatter
and hide in the brush.
The fight had begun at o'clock. At
o'clock 4 heavy rain fell-a real flood The
TOucouleurS took advantage of it to pick up
their dead and wounded, but though they
carried away many of them, corpSes could
be seen afterward lying all around the

STANLEY'S CHARGES.


BosToN Oct 2S-Iieutenant Troup, one
of Stauley's officers left with the unfortunate
rear guard under Major Barttelot, is visiting
his wife's relatives in Cambridge. A re-
porter sought from Troup an explanation of
Stanley charges. Stanley" he said, has
seen fit to make charges against those whom
ne left behind in charge of Il forlorn hope,
and | will gladly meet anything lie may have
to present. Thus far Stanley has made no
specific charges against BarttelOt, and until
he does ! will respect the mans memory and
not censure him. | will admit certain things
were done which | would not have DONE but
it must be remembered that Barttelot was
quick-tempered, nervous man, who had no
control over himself, and who, unQuestion-
ably, was wrong man to be placed in con-
trol of the natives, no matter how large a
force it might be. The Major hated the ma
tiveS in the first place. and he made no effort
TO conceal his dislike for them He never
had any experience in the jungle and did
not know how TO manage the natives. Stan
ley knew him intimately and knew Just the
kind of man he was. If a wrong has been
dOne-mind you, l don't say that Stan
ley'S insinuations have any foundaton-but
il there has been any biunder, Stanley is
responsible for 1t in placing such man in
control of the guard. As | was saying,
Barttelot was hot tempered; besides he had
the native soldiers under him. He was
martinez. and eXacted from these native
soldiers the same discipline that would have
been expected from the flower OF the En-
gliSh army. OF course such treatment
would not do with the natives who had
been unaccustomed to restraint. and there
was frequent rebellion which called for dis
ciplinary measures. But | will say | did not
see anything done which Stanley himself
has not done. The latter. however, insiDu-
atcs some very horrible acts were per-
formed. Let him explain himself more fully
before | enter into any argument with
him"
Then there are incidents in connection
with The lie in camp which have not been
tuld?"
Yes, I will admit that certain measures
were carried out which l do not care to dis
CuSS jaSt now. in 4 certain sense Stanley
has included me in his Wholesale crtti ism,
and | prefer 10 await some definite charge or
statement before making any reply. As far
as my own position is concerned | am not
ashamed to f,Ce any accusation. | followed
the instructions from my superior in com
mand, and If any mistake is made he is the
one responsible"
COMMEMORATIVE TABLETS.
LONDON, Oct. 2S.-Lieutenant Stairs. Sur

son yesterday sent commemorative tablet

of which took effect.
Officer Patrick Whalen, who was standing

handed his pistol to him and remarked:
''Ive killed the -, and will do 50 TO any

The instrument of death was a 3S-caliber
revolver, and the knife with which Allen
was stabbed an ordinary pOcket-knife.
Roach was one of seven brothers. A
widow survives him. Those who witnessed
the tragedy were very reticent when ques-
toned, hence the police had much difficulty
in ascertainng the bottom facts. The dead
man was Republican and about 80 years of
age.
The trouble undoubtedly grew out of
political dispute, and the homicide is the
first in any manner connected with the CAM

CHICAGO, Oct. 28--At army headquarters
this morning Colonel Corbn said as far as
the reported contemplated outbreak of In
dams at Standing Rock Agency is con-
ce-ned it had become an old story. "Old
Sitting Bull" he said, has had few dis
satisfied followers about him for long
time, but it can, | think, be safe to say that
there is no truth in the reports. Then,
again. General Miles is now in the field,
right in that country, and he will, no doubt,
give the matter his personal attention. +.
F. Brown of Aspen, Colo, who travelled ex-
tenSivey Throughout the entire country ad-
jacent to the Uintah Reservation and is ia
miiar with the relations between the
citizens of Glenwood Springs and the Utes,
says there is no reason for any apprehension
on the part of the Glen wood people, as the
Uintah Reservation is situated nearly 100
miles away"

Horse, the great Sioux prophet, seems to be

dans what good things are in store for
them. Major Mclaughlin ordered him off
the reservation ana confined several other
troublesome spirits i'll the guard-houSe. The
Indians have been making day and night
hideous. Kicking Horse is cunning enough
with his prophetic utteranceS. He tells
them they must not kill the whites, as the
Great Spirit would take care of them. He
declares the time will soon come when the
Indians will occupy the earth to the eXclu-
sion Of the whites. If il were the spring
instead of the fall there would be danger of
an uprising, but it is not believed one will
now occur. Sitting Bull is doing all he can
to foment disturbance.
