STORM IN THE REICHsTAG.
Springs Up Over the Unique Doings of Dr.
Carl Peters in Africa


Carl Peters in Africa.
LONDON, March IA dispatch from
Berlin to The Times describes a stormy
scene in the reichstag. 1t arose through
Herr Bebel, one of the Socialist leaders,
accusing DIR. Carl Peters, the African ex-
plorer, while he was imperial commits
sioner to Africa in 1891, of causing a negro
and negress to be hanged without trial to
the nearest tree because they had taken a
fancy to each other, of which DIR. Peters
being himself intimate with the ncgress-
disapproved. The German officer refused
TO execute the sentence. Nevertheless the
sentence was executed. DR.. Peters pro
claimed officially that the negroes were
hanged rs spies.
After that tho English Bishop Tucker
declined to receive DIR. Peters, saying that
he would have nothing to do with n muir
dcrer. DIR. Peters thcreupon wrote to
Bishop Tucker contending that he had
married the negress according to tho
African custom, and therefore had a right
30 put her to death for adultery. Dr.
Sayser, director of the colonial depart
ment, in reply to Herr Bebcl, expressed
doubts whether African travellers could
DO judged according to European stan.
dards. He tried to moilify the house by
referring to Herman Wissman's spotless
character, but although he gave a long
explanation to the effect that an investi-
CATION had shown that the negroes We're
guilty of theft and other offenses and
that DIR. Peters could not be incriminated,
he failed to satisfy the house.
DR.. Kayser then said further that the
government desired the facts. but it was
difficult to pass judgment in such cases.
| 1t had been intended to place DR.. Peters
| at Tanganyika, believing that such Incl.
dents could not occur under Wissman.
But it was discovered that DR.. Peters
| was SO unpopular that he was not ap-
pointed DIR. Kayser's speech met with
frequent interruptions and shouts OF
