Peace Congress Tricked
Into Congo Resolution
Dr. SarOIea, King Leopold's Representative
Declares Agents MisIed It---AnnounCe-
ment Coming From Washington.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 10-Dr
Charles Sarolea. special representative
OF King Leopold of Belgium, declares
that the stories OF cruelty IN the Congo
Free state are much overdrawn. He
says King LeopOld's officials are doing
much TO build up the country.
He added that he believes the inter
national peace congress in Boston vas
deliberately tricked into approving the
resolution Of Saturday indorsing a fur
ther investigation Of the Congo govern
ment by a committee representing the
nations of The world.
News Coming Out

few days" said DR.. Sarolea, and clear
up much Of the mass Of rumor that has
been circulated by those who for one
reason or another, are hoping for inter
national action that may result in the
dividing Of the Congo State among GER
tain powers.
Il was in Washington to see President
Roosevelt regarding the Congo situation
Immediately after the President had
been seen by ON agent Of the forces that
are circulating stories OF cruelty TO the
natives on the part Of Belgium's officers.

predict that there is a surprise in store
for the enemies Of Belgium.
The Peace Congress was misled into
its action by the resolutions of various
bodies that have followed reports OF
missionaries and by the false rumors Of
cruelty on the part OF King Leopold s
officers that we are now combating.
don't believe for one instant that the
American missionaries intended TO do
Belgium an injury, nor did they realize
how they were being played uBon by the
agents that are anxious 10 force armed

Some Cruelty.
1T would be foolish to say at there
are not instances OF cruelty 10 be found
along the Congo. These instances can
be found ia any country, and must be
expected In a country just being rescued
from absolute barbarism. But the cru
city Is in no measure caused by King
LeopOld's officers. They are working
hard TO build up the country and estsb-
fish trading telegraph stations and have
roads built
To police the district any nation
would be obliged 10 make use OF sol
diery, and 1 don't believe any nation
could better control these men than they
are now being controlled.
i regret that the Peace Congress
called for an investigation, but am
pleased that they are beginning TO see

evidenced by their refusal 20 blame Bel

RUSSIANS TAKE
BENTSIAPUTZE

MCkDEN, Oct. 10--Tne Russian for
ward movement has begun, and Bentsia-
putze has been captured with a small
loss.
In order to give clear understanding
OF the situation, IL may be stated that
two days ago the japanese had ten d.
visions confronting the Russians north
Of the Taltse River.
Their left flank. consisting OF Two d.
visions, was on the railway at sandiapu.
thirty miles southwest Of Mukdcn, and
close 10 the Hun River. Their center.
comprising four divisions. occupied the
railway between LiaO-Yang and Chand-
iapudzi. twelve miles north.
Fifty-two Miles Long.
Two more divisions occupied the ex-
IRENE japanese right along the road be-
tween Bentsiaputze and Bensihu. Their
front extended about hfty-two miles
The position az Bentsiaputze was
strongly fortified and intended 20 with
stand attack. II IS reported that General
kurOki was there In person. The japan
csc had omitted 20 fortify one Hill, which
was the key 10 the position. The Rus
SLAMS. aware OF this omission, made a
wide detour eastward and seized the hin
with little opposition. The hul once
occupied exposed the whole japanese Pc
sition 20 heavy Ranking fire.
Russian Losses Small.
The Russians also turned the Japanese
right, and the fortified positions thus
becoming Untenable the japanese were
forced 70 withdraw hurriedly from
Bentsiaputze. lighting a rear-guard ac-
ton IN which they suffered heavily.
The Russian losses throughout were
small, although severe opposition had
been expected.
General Mlstchinko's Cossacks had
been marrying the Japanese outposts for
several days and were entirely sue
cessful In a number Of engagements.
The Russian southern advance began
on October with the occupation OF
gf Shakhe. a railway station. The next
day the station. which had been dis
mantied by the Japanese. was restored
oy me railway brigade, following i'm
medidteiy behind the lighting line. and
the same brigade also restored the
bridge across the Shakhe River. on
