Boston, Oct. 7. The policy of King I.eoHdd of Belgium In treating with the prople of the Congo Free State was at tacked this afternoon at a public meet Ing held nnder the auspices of the International Peac Congress by E. D. Morel of England, represent lug tbe Congo Re form Association.

Tbe meeting was cslled to dlscnsa the relations of races and tbe menace to the world order through tbe exploitation of weaker people. Mr. Morel said In part: -The errand which, bas brought me to the United States Is a very aiu-ple one. It la to appeal to you In behalf of tbe oppressed and persecuted people of the Congo, for whose political unhappy con dition! yon and we have a great moral responsibility front which we can not escape and from which In honor we should not attempt to escape." Mr. Morel related the circumstance nn der which be said King Leopold of Be- giiim obtained recognition for the Congo Free State from the world powers.

With such fervor," be said, "did King Leojiold protest the purity of his motives and the slncerily of his philan thropic alms that be lu convincing tbe whole world, and the asso ciation blossomed forth into the hide pendent State of the Congo. Thus briefly were the destinies of Jrt.0rt.fa human Uelngs assigned to Klnj Leopold In trust for civilization. "The Congo State has translated the freedom to which It was dedicated by making free of everything the African possessed. Including his body and life. The sovereign of the Congo State bas fn IP lied bis pledges by asserting bis unquestioned personal right to every ar- cle of commercial value tbe Congo ter ritories produce.

A vast system of forced production In India rubber and foodstuff, has been Instituted, which allows tbe native no time to cultivate his plantations, to maintain himself or to bare any leisure for his own affairs. A native army, larger than tbe combined forces of England. France and Germany In West Ceutral Africa has been raised, armed and quartered npon tbe population. Where these demands have met with resistance slaughter wholesale and pitiless haa been and Is exercised to enforce compliance. The population la rap- Idly disappearing under the strain.

Large and flourishing natire towns ten years ago are to-day entirely void or else tenanted by a few miserable remnants of otiee numerous population. That I the true picture, proved beyond the possibility of doubt, which the nprolllng of the Congo curtain disclose.

"The African slave trade ha been revived and la In full swing in the Congo to-day'.

I ask yon to help its root It up and fling It out of Africa. Mr. Morel's speech provoked a rigorous reply from George Herbert Head of Cambridge, England, In defense of King lipoid. Mr. Head said.

In part: "Mr. Morel has treated with splendid scorn the idea that there Is any commercial motive In tbe mind of Bngland, bttt In every pamphlet. In every sphere. In every document that I have ever seen coming from this Congo Reform Association, they start with hmuaultarianlsin and end with commercialism. "The Congo Free State la doing all that It Is able to do to prevent acts of cruelty to the natives.

(unllaned fr ana Page Oi Construction Post of Newport News Shlp- nuiiinng 1 oiupauy was at the Navy Ik fartmei.t 10-day. and he told the oitlciala that Ills tirni would surely licat the em piov.H-s of tire Brooklyn navy yard In tht sccd contest lu battleship building that tne two yards are now engaged In. Mr Post also declared that the Southern craft would cost less than the vessel that is Isdug built at Brooklyn.

Superiiiteudeut Post said: "We expect to beat the record of the Brooklyn yard on the Connecticut, both as regards tluie and cost. We renllso tbat this Is not an easy proposition, for tbe Brooklyn yard Is equlpjied with some very capable con stmctors and an admirable set of work- Ingmen. We appreciate that In order to win out we must keep going all the time, with no Jet np. However, we have certain advantages over tbe government yard, which we believe will help us lu the matter. "I observe that It ha been said we are crowding the Louisiana In order to make a good showing with it, and that we are neglecting other contracts.

Now. that Is all wrong, and I am sorry such an im pression should hare gone abroad. As a matter of fact we are giving uo more at tention to tbe Louisiana than to any one of tbe other half doten ships tbat are building at tbe yard. "It true that tbe Louisiana has established new records for speed in shipbuilding, and much publicity has been given to this intelligence. Bnt we have done better with another battleship, the Minnesota.

She is coming along faster than the Louisiana, and I have no hesitancy in saying that she is going up at a fsster rate than any other battleship In tbe world. We expect to make new records with both the Louisiana and Minnesota by flulshlng tbem up Inside of contract time. Three and a half years 1 tbe period allotted for building a battleship, but I do not re-all any vessel of this class tbat was finished and delivered on time. Tbe delays have ran Jeti anywhere from three months to three years. But with the Louisiana tbe Minnesota It will be different.

I expect tbat the Minnesota will be ready for commissioning several months before the expiration of the contract time for her completion- Great Interest Is displayed by all our men la tbe race with the Connecticut, and tbey all want to win. We have a good lead on the government craft, the Louisiana having been launched a full month ahead of the Connecticut. While the official percentages of completion credit us with bnt six per cent advance over the Connecticut, It Is nearer 12 per cent, according to our method of calcula tion." BIG CAMPAIGN FUXD EVIL.

Washington, tlct. 7. In the matter campaign contributions tbe sentiment of this city seems to be gradually working out of the woods and Into the light. It has become recognized among all right thinking people that officeholders should not, under compulsion, give up a part of tbelr salaries to the party la power. Since officeholders work for tbe public, tbelr ss lartes derived from all taxpayers should not be made large enough so that they can turn over a good percentage to tbe party which (lyes tbem the place.

When It comes to contributions from cor porations and concerns having great Interests before Congress or tbe adminis tration the public Is In a more hazy state of mind. The question at Issue Is whether the venal vote holds the balance of power. A Republican prominent in the management of the present campaign expressed the opinion to-day thst If the Democrats were to dnmp floXM Into Connecticut on election morning tbey could buy np 10,000 voters at $10 each and so carry tbe State. Tbe question raises many complexities. Any law Intended to regulate contribu tions wonld be exceedingly difficult of enforcement, because of the many meth od of evasion.

GOI.I1 ST AM HID I MEXICO. French (apltallsts to Reorganise Conntry'a Moartary Jjatem. Spwlal Cable to The Tlmes-Iiemocrat. 1'arls. Oct.

It la rumored that the advani-e In national tsuilc of Mexico shares Is due to the attempt of French luterests to secure control, with the ultimate pur pose of handling tbe matter of monetary reform In Mexico. Hecent reports from tbe City of Meil-o are that the project hao' been lndeflultelr deferred, but It Is asserted here that such Is not the case. Active preparation are tieliig made for the change to gold atitiHlard. and the control of the National of Mexico Is an Important point. The concession for the establishment of the National Hank of Mexico was originally sect! rd btr a arnUlcate of French crpltallsta.

Some reara after lti estab lishment the bank passed Into tbe control of Spanish Interests, who have since held a majority of the stork and dictated tbe management. Finance Minister I.lmantour, of Mexico, has charge of the matter of monetary re form. Ia making th? change to a gold standard tbe National Rank of Mexico will be the active agent, it la asserted i ere that Minister Llmantonr does not feel like consigning this Important work to any but those In whom he baa tbe most implicit confidence. Being of French descent, and having many rich anu' influential friends In I'aris, It Is asserted be conceived tbe Idea of organizing a French syndicate and revaluing control of the Nt.tiounl Itank of Mexico. This, It la as serted.

Is what he bas done. Some weeks aga Ernesto Pugibct, man aging director of Fl r.nen Tono, the largest cigarette factory In Mexico, came to I'aris on business. He Is known here, 1-olng a former resluV-nt of the city. Soon after bis arrival there was a marked hi rtense In the demand for National Iiank of Mexico shares here, at Geneva and In ouilou. It is claimed that he came bere aa th.i representative of Minister IJman- tcir to conduct the campaign for tbe securing of control of the National Hank of Mexb-o.

That the puriiose of bis mis sion has leeu aii-onipllshcd is a matter of gos-dp In financial circles, although, of tirse, it vi ill be Impossible to tell defin itely until the snnuul meeting In January. If the syndicate said to bare been or- gauixej by Minister IJujautoiir bas secured Hie controlling: Interest In the Institution It Is claimed that at tlie January meeting the pri-s-nt management the bank "ill le deposed, and men placed lu charge who will lie lu sympathy with Minister Umaiitour.

The resolutions, after a brief discussion, were adofited unanimously, wltll the provision inserted that the Congress merely called tbe attention of the power to tbe treaty suggested In the memorial as one model for adoption by all. The Armenian quest (on was taken tip. and a special committee presented its report.

In It an appeal was made to the of the I nlted States tt make use of the best mean to put a stop to tbe "terrible suffering of the various people of the Turkish empire." The resolution also suggested an international conference intended to devise steps to control the authority of tbe Sultan of Turkey. Ir. NelljofT. the sole Armenian delegate in the Congress, made an earnest appeal that the atrocities committed in his country be brought to an end. A vehement denunciation of Turkey, Russia and Great Britain came from I'eiigate Herbert Burrows of England.

He condemned Turkey for al legeil Armenian atrocities, bitterly as sailed Russia for its treatment of the Jew anil at tacked tils own country for it policy in inuiet.

Other delegates engaged In a similar discussion. wbereiiMii the chair urged the Congress to refrain from remarks of a controversial churacter.

It was finally voted, almost unanimously, to re fer the resolution to the general committee on questions of the day for further consideration and rearrangement. The committee on propaganda.
