 the Terrible Scene.
 LONDON, Nov. IA. The Times this morning publishes the full text of Assad Farran's affidavit. It is written in bad English and the original is in Assad's handwriting. Assad commences by ex- plaining that he was obliged in London to contradict his account for certain reasons, especially because the commit tee did not desire him to reveal any. thing.
 He proceeds to describe how Barttelot, after Stanley Left Yambuya, finding food scarce, employed armed Soudanese to at tack neighboring villages, but found them deserted. He then had recourse tc capturing native women and demanding food for their ransom. Bonny did the same thing. The women escaped often. This caused isolation in the camp, the natives each fearing kidnapping. Assad relates how Barttelot daily ordered the men to be given from % to 100 lashes for various offences. He describes the arrival of and the negotiations with Tippoo Tib. He speaks of numerous cases of the stealing of food, the thieves being pun. ished with 100 or more lashes each until their flesh was torn.
 Terrible Punishment.
 In one case the Major ordered the pun ishment to be stopped, but few days later the victim, having recovered some what, was given 150 more lashes. The man was then compelled to walk ten hn1IsC in thn daily heavily oh aina1 This was continued for two months, when the victims sores became putrid and maggoty. The Major then relieved him for a week and Dr. Bonny gave him medi cine, after which the punishment of marching in the sun was resumed. The man finally decamped, but was recap tured after four days, through the offer ing of a reward, and was shot, despite Jameson protest.
 JamesOn's Affair.
 After dealing with the reports of Stan ley's death and the getting of Tippoo's men comes the Jameson affair at Ri bakiba. Jameson expressed to Tippoo's interpreter curiosity to witness can nibalism.
 Tippoo consulted with the chiefs and told Jameson he had better purchase 8 slave. Jameson asked the price, and paid six handkerchiefs. A man returned a few minutes afterward with 10-year- old girl. Tippoo and the chiefs ordered the girl to be taken to the native huts. Jameson himself, Selim, Masondie and Jarhari, Jameson's servant, presented to him by Tippoo, and many others fol lowed. The men who had brought the girl said to the cannibals: -. ....
 .''This is a present from a white man, who desires to see her eaten." The girl was tied to tree, the natives sharpening their knives the while. One of them stabbed her, twice in the belly. She did not scream, but knew what would hap pen, looking to the right and left for help. When stabbed she fell dead. The natives cut pieces from her body. Some took the legs, arms, breasts and other portions: straight to the huts, while others tool the entrails to the river and washed them, Jameson in the meantime making rough sketches of the horrible scene. Then we all returned to the chiefs house."
