Emin's White Book.
A white book is published in Berlin
containing Fmin Pashas reports to the
middle Of November last. These reports
form record OF Emins extravaganza
and disregard of instructions. Emin
ignored the order to found a station on
the Victoria Nyanza; instead he hoisted
his flag at Tabora in spite of Commits
missioner Schmidt's efforts to dissuade
him. the commissioners objecting on the
ground of the great expense.
Emin spent $50, 900 instead of the $15,-
600 allowed him. He repeatedly COM
plains of the insuhiciency of his supplies,
owing to which, he says, his men are be-
coming mutinous. He therefore de-
clines responsibility for the failure of
the expedition.

purely Catholic party, distinct from
monarchical and imperial elements,
with which, he says, religion has hither-

He recommends that French priests
adopt the program approved by the
Vatican-re recognition Of the established
form of government, in order to be in
better position to defend religion openly.
In addition he recommends that priests
should strive to separate Catholic ac
ton from that of the old parties; that
they should not allow religion to be
abused in order to perpetuate syste-
matte opposition, and that they should
forget internal divisions, so as to present
a united front against secta1ian oppres-
sion.
