Stanley in the London Times.

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Times this (Satur-
day. morning prints three columns of a
statement from Stanley cabled by it's New
York correspondent. In it he reiterates
the charges of vindictive cruelty by Bart
telot and says he himself would have ac-
quilted the majors murderer. He accuses
Barttelot of harboring the widest and
most unfounded suspicious against him
(Stanley) and other officers. Stanley ac-
cuses Jameson of having purchased a girl
for the sole purpose of having her muir
dered, 50 that a cannibalistic scene might
be furnished for the sketch book. The
basis for this story was sketches shown
him by European.
The Times says, editorially, if these
charges are true, they will compel all Eng
ishmen to execrate the memory of the men
who could bring such disgrace to the ma
ton. The proof against Jamison, how
ever, is deplorably vague. Walter Bartel-
lot says SANKEY'S account is totally at vari-
ance with the others. He reiterates all his
charges and says Stanley's action in leav-
ing Nelson's party without food twenty
three days resulted in the death of forty
seven of them.
