oner, who is serving a twenty-year sem

TRAIT IN GREAT DEMAND.
Some Londoners Stayed Up Late to
Purchase n SuppIy-NO Bomb

LONDON, Jan. Capt. Guy Burrows,
who has just retired from the employ of
the Congo Free State government after
six years service, declared in an interview
to-day that the conditions prevailing in
the Congo Free State are a disgrace to
civilization. He pictured atrocities Of the
most horrible character perpetrated on the
natives by officials and whites who have
concessions of rubber land. AS a typical
instance Of the means employed by the
Free State government, Captain Burrows
corroborated the statement of al American
missionary to the effect that the officials
employed 500 cannibals, to whom they is
sued rifles to massacre and capture un-
armed natives who had rebelled against
their methods"
II have sworn testimony" said Burrows,
''of the Belgians handing over natives to
cannibal tribes for the express purpose OF
being eaten. Forced labor prevails every
where and shotgun rule is the trueSt de-
scription of the present administration. The
companies deriving wealth from the col
lection of rubber are all more or less state
enterprises, as a third or half the shares
in them are invariably held by the govern
ment. Latterly King Leopold and the gov
eminent have made some show of action
aginst the agents of some OF the Upper
Congo companies, but only minor officials
are ever touched, and the sO-called reforms
are merely intended to throw dust in the
eyes of the public, whose Indignation has
been aroused by the stories OF this reign
of terror. While the present systems for
the collection of rubber and the recruitment
will remain a disgrace to the white mans
work in Africa.

AN INTERNATIONAL BANK
PLANS OF A NEW CORPORATION Ex-
planned BY GEN. HUBBARD.
Agencies VIII He Established i'm the
States's InsuIar Possessions.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The plans of the
international banking corporation which
has been named by the President as re-
pository for the portion OF the Chinese in
demnity due TO the United States have been
explained by General Thomas II. Hubbard,
the president OF the board OF directors of
the Philippine agency is established other
ranches will be instituted in the principal
cities of the insular possessions Of the
United States. The ultimate purpose is that
the entire Orient and South and Central
America shall be comprehended by the op-
erations of the bank.
All of this is but the natural outgrowth
of the commercial and territorial expansion
Of the United States" continued General
Hubbard. Heretofore there has been no
particular need in the United states for a
banking institution doing an International
business. but since the Spanish war and
the tremendous trade OF recent years with
South America. and the promise OF a con-
stantly increasing commerce with China
and the Orient. the necessity for just such
an institution as this has developed. Here
tofOre all OF the exchange with foreign
countries has been handled with the banks
of Berlin and London. There are a number
Of International banks in these cities. II
VIII be the purpose or the new corporation
10 secure as much as possible Of the eN-
change business heretofore handled by
these foreign banks with which this coun-
try is concerned
So far comparatively little has been done
by the new bank, its charter by special en-
actment OF the Connecticut Legislature
having been obtained only last June. Gen.
Hubbard said tnat a branch would be cs-
tablished in New York city, although tire
bank here would not be for purposes Of de-
post, exchange alone being handled. This
New York bank is 10 be a sort or clearing
house for the various branches controlled
by the main institution. The reason why
the charter was obtained i'm Connecticut.
according to General Hubbard. Is found ina
the fact that the law of that State are
unusually liberal to banking institutions.

lano, of the banking firm OF Brown Bros.

NEW KING EDWARD STAMPS.
Many Persons Stayed Up All Night to
Purchase Them.

NEW YORK, Jan. "A dispatch from
London to the Herald gives the following
account of the manner in which London
received the new King Edward stamps:
There was an enthusiastic demand and a
ready supply, but King Edward coins were
missing. Many people got up early and
went considerably out of their way TO
make purchases of the pretty new penny
and half-penny stamps. Quite a number
of ardent philatelists waited until midnight
on Tuesday at the general postofice and
began asking for the new stamps, which
were on sale Immediately after II o'clock
struck for New Years day. In the major
ity of cases the stamps were rompt
affixed TO letters and postal cards, which
were forthwith posted at the nearest avail
able letter box. In many branch postoffices
the scene early in the morning was a busy
one and quite unusual. Small, ragged
urchins went up to the counters and asked
for the new stamps. Well dressed young
men called for a shilling's worth OF penny
stamps, but refused to complete the
transaction when old ones were offered.
Everybody demanded the new edition and
frequently the supplies were exhausted.
There is no doubt whatever from the
gossip heard at the postoffices that the
public is highly pleased with the new King
EDWARD stamps, especially the penny red
ones. For weeks past millions of the
strong rooms at Somerset House and over
them the closest supervision has been ex-
ercised by officers of the inland revenue
commission

brought in the local courts, i'm which il
seeks injunction to restrain execution on
three cognovit judgments in favor Of
King * Tracy for $4.67f. of the Toledo Loan
Company for j 3,036 and of the Holcomb
National Bank for SIS. 526. The allegations in
the suits are sensational. alleging fraud,
conspiracy and double dealing. 1t is claimed
that King took out the judgments while
his partner, Tracy. in his capacity as di-
rector was attending the meeting of the
directors and that the company had no
notice of the suit, though an alleged answer
was filed on their behalf. King & Tracy
acted as attorneys for the company and. it
is claimed in the petitions, were looking
out for their own interests rather than of
the plaintiff.
1t is further claimed that Mayor S. NJ.
Jones, A. j. Detwiler, CT. +. Detwiler and
George MetZger, as directors, knew of the
sale TO the Everett-Moore syndicate at the
time the cognovit notes We're issued but
concealed their knowledge and that plain
tiff was not aware of the existence of the
notes until judgment was taken on Dec.
q last, when the remainder of the purchase
price was paid and the stock turned over
to the EVerett-MOOre syndicate.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-John Z. Gary, of
the United States Steel Corporation, an
nounced to-day that the properties hereto
fore secured by the managers of the Po-
cahontas Coal Syndicate, consisting of
about SOC, 600 acres OF fuel and coking coal.
had been sold to the P~ocahontas Coal and
Coke Company, which is controlled by the
Norfolk & Western Railway, and that 3d.
00 acres OF these lands had been leased on
a royalty basis TO companies whose capt.
tai stock is owned or controlled by the

Gary said that, within the comparatively
near future, there would be constructed at
least three thousand of the most modern
coke ovens, with a capacity of at least l.
10000 tons of coke, together with necessary
railroads, tipples, water works, electric
plants, power plants, residences, stores and
other improvements. The companies con-
trolled by the United States Steel Corpora

ton. for about thirty years. This, with the
Connellsville Coke Company. now owned
by the company, should furnish the neces-
sary supply of coke for upwards of sixty
years, thus corresponding with the iron
ore supply.

DEVELOPMENTS AT DETROIT.


DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 2.-The Free Press,
commenting on the Everett-Moore syndi-
cate trouble, tomorrow will say: TT
roubles for Everett and Moore originated
in Detroit with the purchase of the subur-
ban lines running out of this city, which
were and are to-day money-making prop
critics. When the scheme of buying the
Detroit, Rome, Rochester & Lake Orien
and its connecting lines, the Northwestern
and the Detroit & Pontiac lines. was pro-
posed the owners of those roads declined
to accept as payment a part of a proposed
issue of $50, OOO. 600. but demanded better Sc
curity. They felt the bonds they would
get would not be worth par in event of
anything happening. Then a new plan was
preached to issue $50. OOO,OO0 of bonds. and
the owners of suburban lines were to get
their stock back with a guarantee from the
Detroit United Street-railway Company
making the bonds a lien on the earnings
OF The latter company. Then came the an
nouncement that Everett and Moore had
succeeded I'm floating the SIS. 10000 issue of
bonds. Meanwhile financial men here were
skeptcal OF the announcement as the
tightening of the money market made IL
impossible to sell the bonds. This i'm
preston was confirmed by the announce
ment, which soon followed the first. that
the 35,00O.O0 bond scheme had been held
in allegiance
The announcement to-day from Cleve-
land that the financial affairs of the svn-
dictate had been placed in the hands of a
committee of Cleveland bankers caused
quite "A stir on GriswOld street, the money
center of the city. but as IL was known
that the roads which had been bought bv
the syndicate were amply secured no ap-
prehension was felt. None directly inter
ested in the Everett-NOore Company would
talk of the cOmpany's affairs. but il was
announced by one Of the former owners
of the Toledo ShOre-line road. bought by
the Everett-MOOre syndicate, that $3.50. 900
became due on the purchase of that line
to-day and that about $1,000 600 is about
due on the purchase OF the Toledo Trac-
ton COmpany's lines I'm that city.
'One of the former stockholders in the
Toledo Shore-line said that the original
stockholders were not disposed TO take al
vantage OF the lapse, and inasmuch as
the Cleveland people had completed the
road between Detroit and Toledo and had
cars in operation there was a sentiment
among the Detroit creditors 10 give them
a chance TO show what they could do.
