And the Grossest immortality Proven
Against Ex-ChaROellOr Leist.

And the Grosssst immortality Proven
Against Ex-ChaROellOr Leist.
PoTsDAM, October 16.-The DISCIPLE
nary Court to-day tried the case OF ex-
Chancellor Leist, formerly the German
Administrator of the CamerOons district
OF Wess Africa, who was recalled owing
TO the charges Of brutality brought
against him. The public prosecutor &C
cused Leist Of abusing the powers vest
ed In him and thus causing q revolt OF
the native troops, resulting In num-
Der OF ouIrages, and with causing injury
to the Imperial pOsstige by immortality.
The Court acquitted Leist on the
charge of causing mutiny OF the ma
tive troops; but he was convicted or
abusing his authority and otimmoralitY.
Consequently he was condemned TO be
transferred TO a minor post Ia addi-
ton, the Court sentenced Leist to have
his salary reduced one-ffth.
The charges brought against eX-
Chancellor Leist were OF the most
startling description, and attracted wide
attention in March and April last. For
instance, a weekly newspaper OF Ber-
lin, on April II, published extracts from
the diary of German resident Of the
Cameroons, among them statements
tending to show that Herr Wehlan, the
Governors substitute, who led an sXpe-
ditioa against the natives, issued an or
der TO his subordinates directing them
TO cut the threats Of al! the old women
who fell into their hands.
1t was further stated in the diary al
L.
were unfortunate enough to be captured
we're conveyed on shipbOard, where
they were boun TO the rail Of the yes
sci, the thongs which held them being
drawn SO tight that, in many Instances,
when the flesh began TO swell, they cut
deep into the arms and legs Of the priS-
ouers, VINO were entirely unprotected
from the weather and exposed TO the
tropical heat with their wounds Tester
ing and breeding maggots. The frantic
appeals Of the prisoners for water were
brutally refused, and when the cap
tives were half dead they were shot
down like wild beasts.
Leist was also charged with hogging
native women, which act led TO the
mutiny OF the native troops, during
which the latter broke into the govern.
ment house and shot down a judge
whom they mistook FOR the assistant
governor. For this about twenty-five
OF the rebels were afterwards hung.
Herr Leist was recalled in April last
and reached Hamburg on his return
home on May %, where be was immedi-
ately served with q summons from the
government, ordering him to surrender
himself to the authorities In Berlin and
prepare TO defend the accusations made
against him during his administration
OF the Cameroons colony.

ly welcome Ambassador Thomas Z.

an absence of eighteen mouths as the

Court Of ST. James.
1t was great demonstration and

in which the ceremonies were held.
Mr. BaYard arrived in Wilmington
from Washington at noon and was CO.
tertained by Samuel Bancroft, Jr.,
Democratic candidate for Congress.
In the evening he drove 10 the resi-
dence of Senator Gray, in Wilmington
and from there was escorted to the
opera house by two hundred mem oers
Of the Bayard Democratic Legion, one
of the chief political organizations OF
the city.
Other Democratic clubs marched from
their headquarters to the place OF meet
ing.
Deaiening applause greeted Ambassa-
dor Bayard as he was conducted upon
the opera house stage, and he was Wis
IDLY affected by the warmth OF affection
OF the greeting. The ceremonies were
brief and simple, without Formally.
Senator Gray arose, and on behalf OF
the vast audience welcomed the honor
ed guest OF the evening in words OF
heartfelt greeting.
Ambassador Bayard responded feel
ingly.
Following the speeches, Ambassador
BaYard held a reception on the stage
that continued for over al hour. Near
" all OF those present passed before
him and grasped him warmly by the
hand.
Later In the evening Mr.. Bayard was
entertained az a banquet at the rooms
of the Bayard Democratic Legion, and
afterwards held a reception at the
house of the Young Democratic Club.
From Philadelphia came large dele
cation headed by VIM. Sngerly, Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor, and Sec
rotary Of Commonwealth, VIM. +.
Harrity.
Speaking OF his treatment abroad,
Mr. Bayard said:
From one and all in the court
to which have been accredited, has
come TO me nothing but I'M
bounded courtesy and kindness.
Everywhere l found the name OF
an American was received with honor
and favor, such as l believe has been
extended TO no other people than our
selves. lApplausel. From the bene-
fcient, the benign, the venerable lady
whose virtues so illustrate the
happy reign over a contentsd
people; through the officials down into
the very heart OF the people in the mass,
I have found nothing but friendly
hands, kind words and Offices OF good
service. l went as a friend, | have
been received as friend.
Had not been a friend l would have
been disqualified for my place; but l
went as friend to clear up all nisun-
dsrstandings and to bring together the
hearts and feelings OF two nations
bound by ties such as exist between no
other two nations on the globe" Great
applause.
