Ho Tells of tlio Cruelties Practiced by
Bnrltclnt.
Loxiiov , Nov. 9 The Tlmos this morning
published u three column article , the signed
statement from Bonny , who oi > cns by regret
ting that Uurttelot's brother forced the dis
closure of a shameful story. Bonny sivs
Stanley only hcaid of the poisoning suspic
ious from him on October 20 , thnt Baittdot
nnd Jameson , after questioning the Arabs
iHilonglng toStnnloy's preUous expedition ,
as to the fate of Poccck nnd others , expressed
the opinion that Stanley would poison
anybody. Ho admitted rumors to
that i effect weio current in Europe
but nothing had over been pioved against
Stanley. Bonny confirms the report that
Bnrttelot asked him for tasteless poison with
which to lomovoTippo Tib's ' nciihew , Zelim ,
with whom ho hail n quirrol. Jtonny hid all
the poisons. Barttclotdici not mike a fur
ther attempt to poison Zcllm. Bonny con-
llims the statement that liarttelot deliber
ately hit a woman. For this Barttolot would
hn\o been Ijnched if Bonnv hnd not rescued
him Bonny has not the slightest doubt that
the boy Soudl died from the effects of a kick
by Barttelot
Ho confirms the statement that the hoy.
John Henry , who acted as inteiproter , died
from the effects of ! ! 00 lashes. Ho d id not desert -
sort as stated , but wns left on the roid. Ho
was afraid to como back because ho had sold
Bmttolot's lovolvcr to buy food. The major
retipturod the boy and had him publicly sen
tenced to bo shot , not intending to cany out
the sentence. The whole camp throatoucdto
desert if the sentence was carrlcdout. Bartto
lot then exclaimed : "By God I will give htm
JiOOlashes. " Henry became insensible after
receiving thirty lashes. The scene was the
most honibloho ( Bonny ) over saw. Mor
tification set in und the flesh of the
victim fell in pieces to the ground.
Ills body swelled to twice its ordinary sUe
nnd he died in twentj-four hours. Bonny
tells of the unprovoked stabbing of Chlof
Tnguhga. by Barttolot with a penknife.
He declares the best feeling prevailed In
thovillago till the major nrihod , when ho
immediately caused troubles by extravagant
demands and threats. Bonny confirms sev
eral other stories told beroro about the
cruelties practiced by Baittolot , and tells
about the killing of Xanzibari bv Barttelot ,
who after boiling the man frightfully with n
staff , s-mislced his skull -\\lth it. Baittolot
ho says piojectcd an expedition of his own to
roach Casatia und not go to Unycio.

1888.The
The report calls attention to a very
significant fc.ituro of the Besboraor ntecl
industry In thcso words : "Tlio incro.iso
in the number of c4abll8hnioiit' ? pro-
duclag1 13ossemoitoel has boon
the result almost entirely of the
demand for htcol in iorms other than
inilH. All of the olo\on Bossotnor
stool plants that wore completed in
1&80 had boea built to manufacture stool
for mils , many of thorn bointr added to
previously existing iton-iail mills. Of
the fifty-throe Bessemer hteol plants at
the close of thd COIIHUI your 1S80 , only
foul teen made fatool uills duiing that
year , and of the total quantity of rail
produced over 00 per cent was nvulo by
ton of the o works. Thus , while the pro
duction of steel rails has nearly trebled
in amounts since 18SO , the number of es
tablishments engaged in their
manufacture has shown but little -
tlo change in tlio ton years ,
although many of those works
have greatly incieascd in blzo and ef
ficiency. Tlio competition in the manu
factures of Hosscmor Htcel tails has com
pelled many of the rail mills to convert
a largo part of the Btool produrod by
them into forms other than ralln , the
production of rails to any considerable
extent at the piosunttimo being possi
ble only in works favorably located for
the supply of cheap raw materials and
operated under the latest and most im
proved methods of manufacture. "
The number of plants for the manufac
ture of opon-hcaith Btcol linu Inure , itoil
from twenty-five la 18SO to llft.v-oight in
1800 , and the production has' Increased
during the same period fiom 81,302 tons
to r 01 , : l tons. Of the total production
during the eoiibusycar 1890 Pomifavlvanla
made -10U,2I)2 ) tons und Ohio ( il,2J2 tons.
Tlio crucible btoel industry has shown
but little progress since IbbO , the produc
tion in that year amounting t" 70,1.01
tons , as compared with 8.V > 3U tons in the
census year IS'JO. Tlio number of crucible
stcol plants has increased from yiirtv-filx
