QUEER STORIES ABOUT STANLEY

that when Stanley was i'll during the march

stripes % cheer me: let me at least rest be-
meath the shadow Of the American nag
This anecdOte made all the Brtishers look
gIum. but Stanley's face wore quizZed
EXPRESSION rs ii he rather enjoyed the situ-
alton. This remark of Parke's, taken in
connection with the obstinate silence OF
Stanley in the face Of obvious attempts by
the English to induce him to make n
declaration under which flag he pre-
ferred, and also in view of his re-
cent severe criticisms upon EDgland's
African policy gives good ground for
growing belief that Stanley has determined
10 transfer his allegiance 10 other than
British interests. His yeiled praise of Ger
many's aggresslyeness in opening up new
fields for her commerce. may perhaps be
taken as an indication that he would not
object 10 entering the service Oft Emperor
William. for whom he is known TO possess
great admiration.
