EXTERMINATING SLAVE TRADE


An Expedition in Africa That win End
the Arabs Influence.
XANzIBAR.-Advices have reached hen
from Mengo to the effect that the fun.
tive expedition under the command Of
Colonel Colyille sent against Kabaegs
Kingof Uniyore, has completely defeated
the Kings forces. In November last
King Kabarega attacked a chief at Torn,
who was a British ally. The chief ap
piled to the British for aid, and force
OF 200 Nubians commanded by Major
Owen was sent to his assistance. This
force met kabarega's forces, and after a
fight that lasted three hours the latter
fed, leaving at least fifty dead. Wa
was then declared on kabarega and a
force of 400 Nubians and 10 600 Wyan.
dota natives sent against him. HT
thousand of the latter carried arms
This force was too strong for kabartsS
and though he gave battle, he was routel
The expedition has established chan
of forts from the Albert Mama, ON th
banks of which kabarega's headquarten
were situated, to Uganda. 1t is EXPECTED
that the success of the expedition will
prove a death blow to the slave trade O
this region and will bring Arab Influence
to an end.

Persuaded Indians to Have white Men
Violate the Law.
WALLA WALLA.-When Judge Han
ford left this city after the recent term
of the Federal Court he carried with him
afidavits containing sensational charges
against Deputy United States Marshals
Mcclure Stratton and Wills OF North
Yakima. Fees in cases on charges OF
selling whisky to Indians have been a
source OF much profit to these officials
At the last fall term OF court about
eighty such cases were heard, nearly all
from Yakima. Several Indian witnesses
now make affidavit that these officials
gave them money to give to white men
to buy them whisky while the Marshals
were secreted to witness the transaction
and make arrests. The aflidavits also
state the Marshals would arrest men
while drunk and employ Indians to tes-
tify that they had sold them whisky.
Five defendants also made affidavit that
they were offered inducements by the
Marshals to plead guilty. 1t is reported
that Marshal Drake stated before leav-
ing here that he would take prompt ac-
ton in the matter as soon as the CoXey
trouble was off his hands.

Amusement Among the Experts.
The SO called magnetic shell, which
has been uset. at the trials of English
armor plates at Okhta, near st. Peters.
burg, has made an extraordinary record.
The shell was fired at soft ST. diamond
plate at right angles, and the penetration
was l011a inches. Another shell penetrat-
ed l6 inches. One shell was discharged
at inch Harveyized plate at an an
gle Of 20 degrees. The projectile passed
through tho plate and backing and fell
about 400 yards beyond, a performance
which filled the scientific experts pres.
ent with amazement.
Further trials will be made, but for
the present no plates Of tho requisite
strength are forthcoming, those already
used, which were manufactured special
ly for the purposes of the trial, being 30
shattered as to be useless for future
tests. The general impression among
military experts is that the magnetic
shell is not new shell at all, but sim
ply new invention adaptable to any
modern projectile.
One of the shells that had undergone
the secret process was exhibited. AL
though it had passed through one of the
armor plates, it was in an unchanged
condition. and as it showed no traces
of fastening whereby the new invention
could be attached TO it the spectators
concluded that the Improvement must
be a cap of softer metal held on to the
top of the shell By magnetism. This
nurses the hard. point Of the shell ut
the impact and so helps it TO penetrate
the surface of the plate until it reaches
the softer metal behind. This, Mt al
events, is one of the guosscs at the prin-
ciplc of the novel projectilc. -Pittsburg
