Slaves in the Congo Country.
From the New York Time,

The Congo Free State embraces &c.,
square miles of territory and has some II,
900 900 of population. The Congo associa-
ton, originally formed under the patron
age of King Leopold, had for one of its
chief objects the suppression of the slave
trade and was intended also to open the
Congo region to industrial and commercial
development Even if the charges of bar
barous cruelties and mutilations be held
under reserve 1t appears to be proved by
the report of the Belgian commission that
the natives of the Congo Free State are
kept in a condition practically indistin-
guishable from that of slavery They are
controlled in their goings and comings and
in their vocations to a degree that certainly
appears to deprive them of liberty and the
pursuit of happiness, even if it does not in
some cases deprive them of life itself.
