Worst of His Men With Barttelot
LONDON, Oct. 2e.-In an interview in the
Telegram, Stanley still INDUCES in innuendo
and evades the charge that he left the scum
of his men with Barttelot. He declares the
bad state of the rear column was due to oc-
curreDces too horrible to describe Answer
ing the charges made by Iroup in Americs,
Stanley accuses Troup of Jealousy. Stanley
aud wife sailed for New York to-day. In an
arti, le 10 the Contemporary Review DR..
Pet-rs asserts that Stanley more than once
threatened to force Emin to accompany him
TO the coast and makes several serious
charges against Stanley.
NEW DIRK, Oct. 3O.-The Herald's Liver
pool correspondent says: Stanley sailed on
the Ieutonic to-day. Just before he STEP
ped on the tender which conveyed bin and
his wife 10 the big steamer. v hich was lying
in the river, asked him If he had seen the
statement made by Lieutenant Troup, which
had been cabled from America to the Eng
lish newspapers.
"Wel, yes" he replied. 81 hastily read
what Lieutenant Troup has said when |
returned from Albert NyauZa, to fiud the
rear column l was in position to Judge
what had been done. Everything was dis
Things had occurred which have been sug-
gested, but are too horrible to describe in all
their barbarity. Things which were there
fully described would make an English
mans blood boil and his cheek flush with
shame"
At this point Mrs. Stanley appeared. But
Mr.. Stanley had not yet said nythng
about Major BarttelOts death. Rising and
pointing TO chair in the middle OF the loom
he said: There is the house BarttelOt was
in There (pointing TO the wainscot by the
hreplace) is the window in the chiefs
house. There Sitting down on the
hearth-rug i'll the attitude of a woman
beating drum is where the woman was.
Now, the man, hearing his wife cry, looked
out OF the window, aud seeing what was
happening click went his rifle and BarttelOt
was killed. Remember, sir, this man was
not slave. he was an independent chief
who had come to camp to make money"
The same Journals Brussels correspond
ent cables: l have just had an interview
with the Belgian Lieutenant Baert, who
was TippOo Tbs secretary at the time OF
the Emin relief expedition. He was
and was President of the Stan
ley Falls court martial which tried
Sanga, Barttelots murderer. Baert says
Stanley's statement that any English jury
would have acquitted Sanga seems to be an
Impeachment on the court-martiaPs iair-
ness. The real fact is that during
trial Sanga himself alleged no other
motive for numbering Barttelot than that
Barttelot being disturbed during the night
Of July II By the Manyema musical revels,
which he had strictly, forbidden,
issued from his tent, where Eonny
also slept, and discovered that the
noise was made by Sanga's wife.
He raised stick against her, whereupoD
Sanga, in unpremeditated anger, thrust a
gun against Barttelots breast and fired. He
was so close that Barttelots clothes were
found burned on his body. This was the
version of all the eye-witnesses, cOrrobo-
rated by Sanga himself.
Lieutenant Baert believes Stanley's state
ment that he could by certain revelations
blast other regulations must be an allusion
to the extraordinary charge brought
against Jameson, Barttelo.'s dead friend
namely. that at Kassago Jameson
purchased black boy and en-
eouraged the Manyemas to kill and eai
him simply for the pleasure Of witnessing
cannibalism. Baert does not believe q
single word Of this story, although jamie
sons sketch-book contained sketches Of
eannibal practices; but he gives this as the
probable explanation of Staney's assertions.
