DEVOURED EMIN PASHA.
The German Explorer and HIJ Followers
Killed by African Cannibals.

London cable: Jacob Snitzer, other
wise known as Emin Pasha, the emf
nent German explorer of Africa, once
rescued by II. NJ. Stanley, was de-
capitated by the Manyena. The body
was eaten. A. j. Swami, missionary
for 10 years at Ujiji, who is now in
London, brought the news.
In an interview Mr.. Swami said:
There is no doubt Emin Pasha is
dead. In February a letter came to
me at Ujiji, asking what should be
done with Emin Pasha's effects. In
vestigation showed me that Emin
Pasha had been killed by a native chief
in the Manyena country His guard of
30 Nubian warriors were also slaugh-
tered. All were Toasted upon by the
murderers. The report was afterward
confirmed from four different sources.
Emin and his band bad been logged
for many days by angered and jealous
natives. The party had trayeresed the
Ruanda country, following a river
which flows into the Congo, when he
reached the home of an Arab chief
known as Seydbnadeh the Arabs
came upon him. Emin told them he
was going through to the coast. A
remarkably tall Nubian came out from
the ranks, and accusing Emin of kill
ing the Arabs at Victoria NyanZa,
struck off the explorers head with one
sweep of his scimetar. The body and
head were thrown TO the Manyena ma
tives, who ate them.

SATOLLI SPOKE.
The Great Catholic Congress at Chicago
Very Interesting.


The Catholic congress which as
sembled in Chicago was a large gath
ering of people interested in the meet
ing and desiring to see the noted man
who had been sent to the United States
as the representative of Pope Leo.
Judge Morgan j. O'Brien, of the New
York supreme court, made an address
of welcome to the high pontifical Off
Gals. Bishop Watterson, of Columbus,
O., was the first speaker, and spoke of
the social conditions which confront us.
Before addressing the congress,
Mgr. Satolli the papal delegate had
been conducted to a great black tower
ing chair of honor of curious ancient
workmanship said to have been
brought to America in one of the eX-
petitions of Columbus. Here with
much majesty and with his mentor,
Arch bishop Ireland, on a lower chair
beside him the papal delegate spoke in
his own tongue, the Italian, and his
words were after translated eloquently
by Archbishop Ireland. Mgr. Satolli
said the first great Catholic congress,
the ideal and model for this and every
such gathering was when Christ sur
rounded by the children of Israel de-
livered his great discourse ON the
mountain-the burden of which was
''Seek first the kingdom of God and his
justice and all other things shall he add
ed unto YOU" The delegate said that
here in America was the key of the
future, and the pope had charged him
to speak words Of hope and blessing.
lin the name of Leo XIII, salute the
great American republic, and l call
upon the Catholics of America to go
forward, in one hand bearing the book
of Christian truth and in the other the
constitution of the United States"

England-Francr-Siam.

Paris cable: The newspapers of
Paris are stirring up considerable feel
ing throughout the French republic by
urging France TO teach England that
she must not interfere in the policy of
France toward Siam or any other col
ony under the fleur-de-lis. The French
government is irritated against Eng
land since the latter has practically
acknowledged that she is supporting
Siam in the policy of delay in reply
ing to Frances latest claims. In fact
matters are fast reaching a boiling
point and somebody may yet get
burned.
