DEFENSE OF HERtROS
ct
Missionary Defends Chris
tians From Unjust Charges.
TROUBLE DUE TRADERS
GERMAN ATROCITIES HELPED TO
INCENSE NATIVES
Charged That Kaiser's Subjects Disre-
garded Sacredness Of Native
Marital Relations.

BERLIN, March 22.-A missionary in
southwest Africa has written to the Reichs-
bote defending the Hereros against the
charges of massacring women and children
and the indiscriminate slaughter of men.
He gives the na:nes of a number of women
who had been reported killed, but who are
all alive, although the Hereros had oppor-
tunties to murder them.
Native Christians, the missionary adds,
assisted a number of women and children
to reach the military stations safely. One
native, Eliphas, offered his oxen to carry
the women and children into Okahandja.
Notwithstanding the danger that the oxen
might be seized.
A missionary named BrOckmann went on
foot, with women and children, unharmed
through the hostile Hereros to Okahandja,
and one German unmarried woman who
fled to Otjimbingue through the warlike
hordes, arrived unharmed.
Recited Notable Case.
The missionary who wrote to the Reichs-
bote also related a case in which three
Germans took refuge in his house, two Of
whom were traders and had a reputation
for depressing natives, and the third named
Martens, who year ago travelled through
Hereroland seeking for a spot to establish
sion of being fair-minded and who main
tanned pleasant relations with them. Hos
tile Hereros came to the missienarys s
house and seized and shot the two traders
but they spared Martens.
Cruelties and Abuses.
The missionary further asserted that the
Hereros rebeled partly through the oppres-
sions of the traders, partly owing to the
cruelties inflicted on them and partly on
account of 1.-THE disregard of the Germans
for the sacredness of the marital relations
of the natives.

Prince Killed Relative Of Chief.
The atrocities committed by Prince Pros
per Won Arenberg helped to- incense the
| natives. The fact was forgotten by the
Germans that the mother Of Willy Cain,
the native killed by Prince won Arenberg,
was sister of leading chiefs and there
fore had African ideas of princely rank.
Finally. the missionary asked, What Ger

HAD REVOLVER IN POCKET.
Mitchell Anton to Be Tried for the
Offense.

A charge of carrying a concealed weapon
in the shape of a revolver was filed in the
District branch of the Police Court today
against Mitchell Anton, Portuguese. The
man asked for a jury trial. and hearing of
the case was postponed until a later date,
in order that his request might be granted,
there being no jury on duty in that branch
of the court at present.
Anton was formerly employed as a cook
at the Philadelphia Oyster House 11th
street northwest between Z and stress.
He ended his term of service there yester-
day morning, and during the afternoon he
returned and had some words with one of
the walters. A short time later he turned
up at the first precinct !.olice station,
where he demanded that the waiter be ar
rested, claiming that the latter struck him
on the head with a dish. He left the sta
ton house after being advised to visit the
Police Court and secure a warrant.
About O'Clock n the evening Sergt
Hartley and Bicycle Policeman Kleindinst
were called to the oyster house. where they
found Anton with a pistol in his hip
pocket. The man was placed under arrest
and escorted to the station house, where
re told the officers that falling in his eff
forts to get the waiter arrested he bought
the revolver after leaving the station house
in order that he would have some thing to
defend himself with in case the trouble was
renewed.
