PROF. B~RTGHTMAN'S BODY FOUND.
Lost From . Catboat on Tuesday, n Is Re-
covered From the River at williamsburg.

While John Finnerty. an attendant in
the public bath at the foot Of North Fret
street, Williamsburg, was preparing to
open the bathhouse yesterday morning
he noticed the body OF a man dressed in
yachting costume floating past the dock
in the East River. He put out in a boat
and brought il ashore. It proved to be
that OF Herbert f. Brightman, a professor
Of mathematics in the Buckley High School
in New London. Conn, who was drowned
on Tuesday from a catboat in Long Island
Sound, while be and three OF his friends
were on their way to the jamestown Ex-
position.
Prof. Brightman, who was 20 years old,
was one Of the most widely known resi-
dents OF Fall River. Msss. His parents are
very prominent. he was graduated from
the Brown University in 1904. and for a
year afterward was a professor Of mathe-
mates in Bridgeport. Two years ago he
became attached to the Buckley High School.
A week ago yesterday he and three friends,
Messrs. Goldi. Anderson and Keller. set
out from New London in a 35 foot catboat
for jamestown. The boat belonged to
Anderson. The intention of the party was
to take the route through Long Island
bOunu, uOWn tnS Edbt UiNtT d1U bncu uoWu
the Atlantic coast. The four had agreed
to move slowly as they were in no hurry.
On Tuesday afternoon while the party
was in the Sound a few miles above the
Stepping Stone Lighthouse a sudden swell
caused the boat to iurch and Brightman,
who was sitting on the cabin house. was
struck by the boom as IL was swung around
and he fell into the water. He could not
swim. It is thought that when the boom
struck him he was stunned, and when he
rose to the surface he was powerless to
help himself. Meanwhile his friends made
desperate but vain efforts to save him.
When they were certain hat he was
drowned they gave up the trip. returned 10
New London and then began a search for
the body, aided by the police.
When Ffnnerty recovered the body yes
terday morning he sent word to the Bed
ford avenue police station and Police Head
quarters and notified the Fall River police.
Edmund X. Arnold. who was an intimate
friend OF the dead man, came on TO New
York and arranged to send the body to
Fall River.

Special Cable Despatch to THE Sun.
LONDON. July THE Rev. r. j. Camp
bell. the well known Congregationalist
minister. ~denouncing the Congo horrors
and king Leopold's accursed methods
at the City Temple to-day, declared that
Great Britain could end the terrible condi-
tons in a fortnight and she ought to do il.
He said that the greater part of the i'll
gotten wealth Of the Congo was brought to
Europe in British ships. and they and all
others sailing between the Congo River
and Antwerp must coal at British ports.
II Great Britain refused them coal King
Leopold would be helpless.
Insisting upon the repression Of the afro
cities at all cost. Mr.. Campbell said that II
ever force was morally j~ustifable it was so
now in order to bring the ruthless tyrant
Leopold to his senses. President Roosevelt
had signifed that he would support Great
Britain in any concerted effort TO end the
horrors. and il England and America acted
together no Power could gainsay them.
Every hours delay meant mora bloody
massacres in that land OF woe. But for
England the Congo would not be in Loo
pold's power. and it was her duty TO deliver
IL from him.

Special C1he Dsspdtch 10 TEE SUN.
HAVANA, July THE Fourth Of July
celebrations by the soldiers stationed in
various parts Of the island had more sig
nificance than the mere commemoration
of Independence Day. Since the begin
ming Of the last Intervention the soldiers
have been kept in the background TO such
an extent as to lose all the prestige they
gained during the first Intervention. when
the natives had wholesome respect for
them.
The celebrations on the Fourth, the
field meets and tournaments were intended
to impress the Cubans and to show what
the troops could do. A general effort "
made to secure the presence Of Cubans
at these fiestas.
There is a general feeling in the army
hat 1t would be a good thing IL the SOL
diers could operate against the bandits.
thus giving the Cubans a well needed OBJ
ject lesson. In the minds OF the officers
there is no question that the natives. see
ing the soldiers kept in the background
and held down. feel that the troops are
afraid of them.

Special Cable Despatch 10 THE SUN.
HAVANA. July I'm an interview to-day
Gen. Loinaz del Castillo said that il the
Americans failed to keep their promises
concerning the reestablishment OF the
republic war would certainly ensue and
that the best elements in the country would
take the field. He added that the Cubans
would win. He thinks, however. since re-
oeiving a telegram from Secretary Taft,
through Gov. Magoon, the other day the
Americans will keep their promises.
h interview covered many subjects,
ranging from who will win the Cuban Presi-
dency to the effect OF the Anglo-Japanese,
Franco = Japanese. Anglo Spanish and
Franco-Spanish alliances on Cuba. In con-
nection with these alliances he said they
held elements both Of danger and promise
to Cuba. but he failed to elucidate this
statement.
The French oppression Of Morocco and
the Japanese oppression Of Corea make
the doughty General Of a few bloodless
fields sad. In the course OF weighty utter
ances on politics he was asked what he was
doing just now. He replied that at present
he was a peaceful man engaged In farming.
This coming from one whose sword. an
he says. 10 his life. is considered to be en-
c~ouraging for continued peace so long az
the conduct of the United States meets

Pullman ID chief Quartermaster Of the De-
partment of the East. A soldier. who
naturally refused to give his name. said
that while it was true hat some improper
characters occasionally visited the island
TO see soldiers a large percentage of the
visitors were respectable and a very
large percentage OF the enlisted men were
quite as moral as a similar percentage OF
officers. The new order makes IL difficult
for a friend Of the enlisted man to see him
except outside Of post boundaries.
The rules promulgated by Col. Pullman
provide that the only persons who may
visit the island are those who wish to see
officers and members Of their families,
those who have official business with the
department on the island, persons having
particular business with officers and per-
sons whiting to call on officers or on persons
living In officers quarters. One Of the
soldiers took heart as he recalled another
case which happened in the Spanish
American war, when an officer, now high
In authority, got UP a nj robin that
