SIERRA LEONE MASSACRE
France Must Give an Explanation
for Firing on British Soldiers.
II Is Regarded rs Certain That President
Carnot WIN Have to Pay England
Handsome Tribute to Escape the
Consequences OF That Action.

LONDON, Jan. S-England is thor
oughly aroused over the Sierra Leone
massacre in West Africa, and the dis
eussion Of this incident is more bellig-
erent than has been heard at any time
since Great Britain and France rubbed
shoulders together on territory both
coveted. In official circles the greatest
retieence Is maintained, but Lord Rose
berry's comments are reported TO DO
dangerously businesslike.
1t has been kno En for some time past
that Lord Roseberry regarded an inter-
rpptional controversy with France as
among the ccrtainties of the future,
and Sunday night his utterances Of a
few weeks ago, in which he admitted
that the European situation was crit
ical, are quoted as significant Of the
governments probable attitude to-
wards France In this latest outrage
1t is felt that France will have to give
a better excnse in explanation of the
firing on the British soldiers at Sierra
Leone than that II was an accident
II is regarded as certain that Presi-
dent Carnot will not only find himself
obliged TO tender an apology to Great
| Britain for the action Of Lieut. Moritz
and his men, but that he will have to
pay handsome tribute to the Golfers
Of John Bull to escape the consequences
OF that action. England is in no mood
TO tri1e with France. The irritating
| :, c-,sro,.. t,,,.,,..as - tla E.anoI In Cb;,,
and Siam, covert interference with
British plans in Egypt and in East
Africa, followed by the firing on Brit
ish soldiers on the west coast, havt
nettled the Gladstone ministry ant
aroused the sluggish temper of the
English people.
II will require the rarest tact ant
diplomacy to bring about an amicabl'
settlement OF the grave internationa
question now precipitated, and mucl
will depend upon the manner in whicl
President Carnot undertakes the task
Unless he acts speedily and satisfactor
lily, it is well within the marks TO sa,
that England will act swiftly and witt
all the force nt her command. A delay il
entering into negotiations looking {,
settlement will not be brooked Thi
much is CLEANED from authorities clos,
to Lord Roseberry The well-lInowi
hatred OF the French for everything
English is remembered only too we'll
and as II by sudden impulse the de
mand for prompt reparation has com
from all quarters
The newspapers have taken cor

upon request from the foreign Office

hostility toward France which is III
mistakable. The fact that the govern

NEW YORK Jan. SILT is stated on
good authority that the unexpected de-
parture OF Henry Willard for abroad,
and the subsequent announcementthat
he did not intend to return to this coun.
try, resulted from his knowledge of
the fact that civil proceedings which
might thereafter develop into Grim
inal direction were about to be institut-
ed against him and others in the United
States courts
There are those who know that say
that Wizards connection with the
Northern Pacific has netted him not
less than slO,OOO,OOO at the expense Of
the stock and bondholders, aud that,
when the story comes to be told in its
entirety, Il will eclipse in audacity the
greatest piece of jugglery in the his
tory OF any American road Report
has II that criminal proceedings against
several of those implicated in the un-
loading upon the Northern Pacific OF
railroads constructed simply for unload
ing purposes may be taken before the
present civil proceedings have reached
a decision.
