ANNEXATION
END OF KING LEOPOLD'S CRUEL
TIES ASSURED.
Monarch Retains Fortune-I'rincely
Estate Provided i'm Cession of
Dependency to Government.

Brussels, Aug. 22.-After several
months of bitter struggle. the cham
Der of deputies adopted the Congo
annexation treaty by SO votes 10 So.
Although todays action probably
solves the great Congo problem, there
still remains open the important ques
ton of Belgium's financial response
.bility.
The passage Of the treaty means
that the annexation of the state to
Belgium is now practically assured,
as the senate and King Leopold are
ready 10 indorse the bill. The per-
sonal rule of King Leopold in Africa
Is now drawing to a close-in the flu
ture he will have nothing to do with
the state, which is to be administer
ed by Belgium-and the hope is
widespread that there will now be an
end to the atrocities and misadmin-
istration in this part of the world
which. for years past, has been sub
ject of investigation and bitter COM
plant by humanitarians all over the
world Other governments became
deeply interested in bringing about
the introduction of reforms in the
Congo and 1t became known last
year that Great Britain and the Unit
ed States had about decided to inter
fere in the Congo administration un-
less the situation there improved.
Compromise on Finances.
The members of the cabinet and
King Leopold held a long conference
after which II was officially given out
that in order to avoid the danger of
collapse of the annexation move
ment the government had decided, in
spirit of Cancellation, to accept the
action of the chamber with regard t.
Congo finances. The members of the
ministry will, therefore, retain then
portfolios.
The situation regarding the annex
alton of the Congo independent state
was thrown into great confusion last
year by the action of King Leopold
in Withdrawing the control of the
Grown domain the richest part of tn,
Congo. from the regular Congo ad
ministration in order to prevent th'
passage of the domain to Belgium
should annexation be consummated.
This action was bitterly resented
by the friends OF annexation in par
liament, as a usurpation Of Belgium's
national heritage. and the opposition
became so great that in February OF
ythis year King Leopold changed his
latitude and agreed 10 abandon the
Icrown domain and the crown founda.
ton to Belgium, STIMULATING that Bel
lgium should not only assume all the
Congo obligations. amounting to s2l
l3OO9000. but undertake also to con
tinue the kings usufruct in the Con
go revenues during his lifetime. Bel
| gium was required specially TO re
quired specifically to respect the con

companies in 1906. in which Thomas

To the mind of Mis- Abigail Jen.

admitting to any outsider that native
of Willowby could be really. eccentric.
As for anything beyond eccentrfcity,
Mrs. Jennings would never have ad-
mitted it, even in the case Of Miss
Rachel Gregg, who was frankly called
crazy by the summer visitors.
"Now, Mrs. Jennings" said one Of
the boarders, do you really mean that
you've never known Miss Gregg to do
anything that you'd call crazyY :,
mo, haven't said Mrs. Jennings,
with a firm and unyielding expression
about her prominent chin. f.

sending that bag Of eggs over to the
Corners to Mrs. Cole right In the box
with her laundry work and never tell

throw the box right off p inquired the

there's one shirt waist she'll never be
able to wear again" @e.-.,...
'tWell," said Mrs. Jennings calmly,
II should say about that as I have

again. But, then, who doesn't, I'd like

GIVES REASON FOR
VISIT TO bAYS|DE
Evidence for Defense In Trial Of
Thornton HaIns.

Flushing, N. r., Dec. 29.-Evidence
was adduced at the trial Of Thornton
J. Hams, charged with being a prin-
cipal with his brother, Captain P. c..
Hams, Jr., in the killing Of William
E. Annis, which the defense claims
supplies the reason for the visit of
the Hams brothers to the Bayside
Yacht club, where Annis was shot.
Charles Raymond Weaver, sales
agent for the Hams Concrete Mixer
company, proved to be the days prin.
cipal witness for the defense and he
declared that he had induced Thorn
tor Hains and his brother to go to
Bayside to look over the property in
stead of going to Sandy Hook, whittier
he said the Hams brothers we're bound
when he met them On Aug. Is. y :
l. MIR. Weaver was permitted to tell OF
Captain Hams mental condition that
day and how the army captain APP
peared during the times he saw him
previous to the shooting. He said
Captain Hams looked unnatural and
took no interest in what was going on
about him. The witness said he took
Captain Hams on a trip to- Boston,
hoping that it would do him good.
Leo Bugg, real estate man, said
that he talked with Thornton Hams in
April about Bayside property and had
made an appointment to meet him at
the Yacht club few days later. The
defendant did not keep the appoint
ment, said Bugg, who declared he had
not seen Thornton Hams since that
day.
