GLAD TO GET HOME. Bradley Found Harsh Treatment in the Congo Free State. Greenock, Oct. 21. Thomas Bradley, who has been employed as a fireman in the service of the Congo Free State has just returned here, and in an interview relates some of his experiences in that country.

He had for comrades there the overseers of his work, 'a number of black Navvies, two. Norwegians and one American. "We were all treated very badly," he said, "and when we asked for our wages Captain Loth-aire, who wasin command of the station, informed us that payments would be made at Boma. Captain Lothaire accompanied us to Boma, where the two Norwegians, the American and myself were quartered in a hut. We awoke in the middle of the night and found the hut on fire and ourselves surrounded by flames, the work of Captain Lothaire and four black policemen.

We made-our escape from the hut and the American accosted Lothaire, asking, 'is this our thanks?" Lothaire drew his sword and struck the American on the back with It and the black policeman, by Lothaire's orders, bound him to a tree with leather thongs. The American being fastened securely, Lothaire walked up to him and slashed him with his sword, wounding terribly. The Norwegians and I were afraid to interfere, for we were in the presence of 200 native troops, but as soon as possible after an opportunity came, we released the wounded man' and carried him to the outskirts of Boma, where he lingered two days and died. After the American died the Norwegians and I succeeded In stealing a Government canoe under the cover of night and made our escape down the river. Both of the Norwegians were killed while making the journey in the canoe."

POSITION OP THIS COUNTRY. South Sentiment Supports the Stand Said to Have Keen Taken by the United States A Vh.it ISritish Journals Think of It. London, Oct.

St. James Gazette in an article on the situation of the dispute between England and Venezuela says: "The United States Government has serious grievances, of its own against Venezuela, and it would 1 best become its position as a great civilized power to join in bringing these Spanish-Indian barbarians to order. A good lesson given to Venezuela would be equally profitable to both the Uni-1 ted States and England. The co-oper ation of the United States also be humane since it would have a tendency to make the lesson bloodless, convincing the Venezuelans of the folly of resistance." The Westminster Gazette says: "Venezuela, like Nicaragua, after much fuss, will probably prove to be small beer. No doubt the less scrupulous of the New York papers will talk bis about what they are going to do with the lion's tail, but Great Britain and the United States are not going to be set by the ears by a pack of Venezuelans." The says: "Even if the Monroe doctrine was an axiom of International law, it could have no bearing upon our dispute with Venezuela.

Its wildest application can only be held to insist that no European Power shall effect -a-fresh lodgment in Anierica, so it does" not affect the decision of England not to allow Venezuela to occupy part of the colony of British Cuina." TOPIC MUCH DISCUSSED. New York, Oct. 21. The Herald's Washington special says: Great Britain's ultimatum to Venezuela continues 'to be the main feature of the boundary line dispute discussed in official and diplomatic circles here It seems to be generally agreed that th's action will bring the matter to a crisi Venezuelans here are firm in their conviction that their Government-will never comply with Great Britain's terms. There is no denying the fact that the situation is viewed with considerable concern by all the members of the administration, and no one will venture to say what the outcome will be.

Sensational rumors continue to be sent out about military preparations on the part of the United States to prevent Great Britain from using force to carry out her demands upon Venezuela, There is no foundation for these reports, Secretary Herbert has displayed considerable interest the past few months in the direction of expediting the completion of new ships and while this may have been done with the view of possible emergencies growing out of the Venezuelan boundary line dispute, officials disclaim any suclf intentions. Secretary Herbert's ambition Is to make the navy as efficient as possible during his administration and to have new ships ready for any contingency that may arise. FRENCH OPINION. Paris, Oct. 21.
