CONGO FREE STATE BARBARITIEs
Governor Wahis Makes a Weak Denial of
Atrocities Charged.

London, June 1.-Governor Wahis, Of
the Congo Free State, has a column
letter in the Times controverting the
statements recently made by Missionary
Sjobloms in this city at a public meeting
in Exeter hall, where the subject Of
Western African Christian missions was
under consideration. He admits the
truth of many of the charges, such as
mutilations and the severing of hands
by the soldiers, which he says is ma
tive custom extremely difficult to eradi-
cate. He admits that an attack was
made on the village of Mandakavagigs
and that many cruelties were prac-
ticed there.
Rut he declares that all these offenses
have either been punished or are being
investigated. The letter is on the whole
less a denial of the offenses imputed by
the missionaries than a justification of
the Congo administration. The Times,
commenting editorially on the reply Of
Governor Wahis. thinks it incomplete
and expresses regret that the charges
against the Congo Free State cannot
be submitted to full and searching
inquiry.

RALLI IN A CONSPIRACY
Russian Report That the Greek
Throne Is in Danger.
EVERYTHING is QUIET AT ATHENS,

And Such Reports Cause Surprise There
BeIlicose Rumors Give Greek Editors
Hope of a General War, Out of Which
the Hellenes May obtain Some Pickings
People, However, Have Had Enough
of Fighting-European Miscellany.
London, June 1.-The Athens corre-
spondent Of The Daily Mail says: from
a Russian source comes news of con-
spiracy against King George of Greece
far more deeply rooted than was sup
posed There is indubitable evidence
that Premier Ralli and his colleagues in
the cabinet are gravely implicated i'm
plot to overthrow the dynasty. The
Kohlnische Zeitung says that Greece
Will be ecompelledto pay a large indemnity,
to reduce her army to 10000 men and to
give up her fleet.
London, May 31.-The correspondent
of The Times at Constantinople says
The sultan has ordered the official CEN
sors to suppress any sympathetic al
fusion to, or anxieties concerning. the
Greek royal family, or to mention the
Improvement in Greek funds. The po-
lice in the Galatea section of the city
have been ordered to arrest all persons
dealing in Greek securities.
Hope for a General War.
London, May 31.-The Athens corre-
spondent of The Times says Turkeys
continued arming and reported Russian
preparations, with other rumors of
bellicose character, raise the hopes of
some of the Greek newspapers that
Greece may yet benefit from general
European war. But the majority of the
nation, sobered by a sad experience. is
only desirous that Europe should pre-
tect Greece against her conqueror. There
Is no reason to fear that either Bulgaria
or Servia will abandon the policy It has
followed thus far. The Turkish troops
who have been sent to the Servian and
Bulgarian frontiers are only intended TO
replace those who were withdrawn just
before the war began.
No Sign of Trouble at Athens.
The reports of alarming anti-dynastic
troubles published abroad cause sur
prise here, as there is no sign of any
such movement nor is any prominent
politician likely TO commit himself to an
anti-dynastic programme. 1t appears
that the Prince of Wales has expressed
his personal desire that the Crown
Prince Constantin should come to Lon
don for the jubilee festivities; and this
| is regarded as indicative of English good
will toward Greece
King George Appeals to Nicholas.
! London, May 31.-The Athens corre-
I spondent of the Standard says: King
| George paid visit to M. Onou, the
| Russian minister, Saturday, and after
two hours interview sent long tele-
J gram to Emperor Nicholas urging him
! to intervene on behalf of Greece. A
dispatch to the Times from Gambia,
| Island Of Crete, says that armed Mus
sulmans made a sortie from Gambia
! Saturday night and burned the village
/ of Kalivia, killing fourteen. The dis
, patch adds: This is certain to have a
serious consequence, as 1T will incense
| the Cretans, who will make reprisals.
