Is Exoneratsd.
Since last January the management OF Mills
Seminary has not been conducted with complete
harmony between the President DIR. C. c. STRAIT
ton, ana the lady teachers and this fact became
publicly known yesterday. The trouble was
commenced by charges made against the con-
dnet Of DR.. Stratton while diseharglng the dtI-
ties OF his position. The Doctor at once de-
manded an investigation, but all Inquiries made
by tile Trustees in The matter were met with re-
luctant responses.
Then committee of three persons was an
pointed TO meet on February 10th and hear the
accusations from those who had made them.
Ihecommlttee reported 10 the Trustees that the
result OF the Investigation did not reflect in any
manner upon the conduct OF the President.
The Trustees held several meetings subse-
quentIy ana about two weeks ago. at a meeting
OF the board, there beug absent but TWO menu
bers-Mrs Mills and James q. Fair-the fol-
lowing resolution was unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS. Growing out of serious and perplexing
misunderstanding In tue college, certain charges
fessiona standing Of Dr. G. c. Stratton and OF other
members OF the faculty, have been brought to the
attention or the board; and whereas, these charges
have in the presence Of full board been patiently
and carefully considered,
Resolved That in our Judgment 1t is nett her needfu
nor wise that the said charges should be entertained
II is therefore ordered that all proceedings con
nected with the aforesaid matters be, the same
are hereby dismissed, and the personal and Official
standing of all persons connected with the institu
begun. And we recommend to all parties in any
wise connected with the aforesaid differences that
they shall, far in them lies, lay aside all feel
ings OF animosity and work together in spirit OF
harmony and forbearance and of loyalty to Mills
college, remembering that the welfare of the col
lege and the work connected Herewith is Of far
greater consequence than all possible questions of
precedency official dignity
DIR. StrattOn was interviewed by reporter OF
THE CALL last night He denied most emphatI-
eally that lie had transcribed his position as
President OF the college IN any manner what
ever. lie positively denied the charges made
public against him, and at the same time as
serted his determination TO say nothing which
would be detrimental 10 Mills College or the
teachers connected Herewith. Referring to tho
accusation that he had entered a teachers slee n
Ing apartment several lines at a late hour to use
the telephone In that room, the Doctor said he
had never been In that chamber at an improper
hour, and, furthermore, he had always desired
ana requested In vain that the telephone be
removed 10 a more public ana convenient place.
Rev. e. c. Stratton, D. d., has been President
OF Minis College for about three years, and in
accepting the position, resigned the presidency
OF the University Of the Pacific at San Jose.

STANLEY CENSURED.
Herr ReiChard Severely Condemns the
Explorers Actions.

BERLIN, April 12.-There is bitter feeling
against Stanley here which has been ripening for
some time and seems to grow more intense every
day. This feeling found expression last night in
lecture by Herr ReIchard, the African explorer.
Reichard asserted that when first starting from
Zanzibar on his quest for Livingstone Stanley
learned from Arab traders there OF The missing
missiOnaTy's Whereabouts. but he carefully con-
cealed his discovery In order 10 give his feat an
air OF greater eclat He learned In ZanZba
that the great explorer was actually al place
called Ujijl, on Lake Tanganyika, where he nlti-
mately found MIN. so that his discovery OF LiV-
ingstOne was nothing more than the act OF cheat
ing player OF blindman's 0un
Stanley In order to reach Wadelai, and accused
him OF having been directly instru-
mental 10 wreeking the last pillars
In Equatorla. Having failed TO achieve the main
object Of his mission TO Wadeldi, which was
nothing more than huge commercial land
grabbing speculation, utterly unredeemed by
any humane purposes or phianthropc feelings
for Emln, Stanley felt IL would never do for him
TO return to the coast alone, so between
Juggling away the reluctant martyr who had
stuck TO his post and duty so nObly. The press
prints Richards lecture extensively, and II VIII
probably affect Slanley's reception in Berlin.

His public career commenced in the CITY
Council OF philadelphia, and he was elected to
the State Senate for term. In which he
greatly distinguished himself. He was rel urned
TO Congress IN 1868, and was reelected TO every

He has always acted with the Democratic party,
but has held unique position as the exponent

upon the accession OF his party to power he was
appointed Chairman of the Committee on Ap-
propTatlons. He not only distinguis he'd himself
by most efficient super vision of expenditures,
but made several speeches which attrac ed con-
siderable attention.

scientific interest, apparently solving the ques-

or rather OF its western branch flowing through
the Albert NyanZa-the eastern branch coming
from the Victoria NydnZa-while they reveal also
