King LeOuoId's Agents.

Leopold has for two years made the
Belgian embassy in Washington little
less than his Congo lobby, and the
Belgian minister, Baron Moneheur,

himself uuremittingly to the kings
personal enterprise in Africa.
To the credit Of the American press
and people, it may be said that all
these efforts have not met with much
more Of success here than in England,
though an amazing amount Of con
fusion has been created in the public
