NEW YORK. May 23.-Scribner's Maga-
zine for June will contain long article
by Henry NJ Stanley, dealing with some
of the more interesting and exciting in
cidents of the expedition for the relief of
Emin Pasha
Mr. Stanley expresses admiration of
Enlin, saying that before his final depo-
sition Emin had acquired an amount and
quality of power which he was disposed
to put TO useful purpose. He had in
creased his store of knowledge. and was
!, model of tact and civility, but he devel-
Oped sentiment to a degree which made
him incompetent to live up to all his op-
pOrtuni.ies
Referring to the treatment Of the
natives, Mr.. Stanley says the habit of
regarding the aboligines as nothing bet
ter th..-. slav-,s must he utterly sup
press; Il before any semilance of civil
ZatiOn can be sect among them.
After describing some slave raids, he
said: /, -e is only one remedy for
these wholesale devastations Of African
aborigines. and that is the solemn com
binalion Of El gland, Germany, France,
Portugal, South and East Africa and
the Congo state against the introduction
OF gunpo~der into any part of the con-
iinent. except for the use of their own
agents, soldiers or employees. or seizing

IN AN ICE FIELD.
Thrilling Experience of the Steamer Fre-
mona in the Atlantic.


MONTREAL, May 23-The steamer
Fremona. from New Castle, had very
thrilling experience with the ice about
i50 miles OF the other side Of Cape Ray
The vessel was steaming slow through d
dense fog on Wednesday last when she
got right iii the midst Of a pack Of ice
which was drifting southwark with the
Arctic current.
After the steamer had been pounding
about in the ice for some hours the fog
lifted and showed the vessel to be in a
dangerous position. All around her
were heavy hummocks Of ice. ten feet
deep in the water and showing about a
foot above the surface Gradually
nearing the steamer and crushing the
smaller pieces of ice in their way were a
number of huge icebergs.
The captain and chief officer climbed
to the masthead and found that the ice
extended on all sides as far as the eve
could see. There We're hundreds of seals
OH the ice, some of them being clg Sc to
the vessel Two hours were spent in
turning tie steamer. and she was then
headed southwark aud was worked out
of the ice. Owing to the movement of
such large mass of ice southwark it is
feared that navigation will be seriously
interfered with.
