SLAVE TRADE COMMON IN AFRICA

Boston, Oct. 16.-Missionaries
returning from Africa bring re-
turns of the growth of slave trade
in many parts of the world. They
have been sickened by the horrors
of slavery. Slave gangs have
passed them leaving many dead
and decomposing bodies by the
roadside-knocked on the head to
end their misery, or hamstrung
and left.
The slave trade is rampant on
the shores of the Red Sea and in
Portuguese, West and Central
Africa, Northern Nigeria, the
Congo, British East Africa, Brit
ish Columbia, the French New
Hebrides, the Dutch East Indies,
Morocco, Turkey, Egypt and the
Soudan.
Slaves are kidnapped and ex-
ported from Portuguese, Italian,
German and even British terrific
ries to the Persian Gulf. Organ
lied slave raids are carried on be-
tween the nglo-Egyptian Soudan
and Abyss;nia to supply the slave
markets held in the country of
Godjan. Negro slaves are freely
imported into Bagdad, whence
they are sent with trading cara
vans into Teheran.
Men and women are sold secret
ly as slaves in Tangier. Turkish
pashas pay $4,000 each for Euro
pean girls for the harems.
A convoy of 100 child slaves
was captured recently in North
ern Nigeria. Over 10000 slaves
are employed in cocoa cultivation
in parts of West Africa. In the
Congo State territory a mlssiona-
ry has seen six slave caravans
herds of slaves tied together and
driven like cattle-lashed togeth-
er with leather thongs in gangs of
SIX, each carrying heavy load of
ivory above his shackles.
A man or woman may be bought
at San 1home for $3.50. On the
Benguela coast a woman is worth
SIS; handsome girls from 800 to
1925. Various boys may be had
for $50 piece,
A system of slavery exists in
Northern British Columbia, where
Indian girls with white skins and
thick brown hair are sold to the
highest bidder.
