MR. ROOSEVELT PROVIDES WIVES.
, Tbo special correspondent of the ''New York American" at Goudokoro, in tbo counso of a graphic description of the final.break-up of Mr. Roosevelt's hunting camp, says: —"The camp ended its existence at noon, precisely on Saturday. At a signal from Cunningham tents" were struck, and 450 ; headmen, porters, aud gun hearers, the. porters conveying bags of (lour and rico and their belongings upon their heads, started for Kampola, singing in praise of Mr. Roosevelt's prowess and generosity, and delighted at being able to return to leisure and possibly to buy wives through his bounty..' " "The picture was incomplete, owing to , the absence of Mr. Roosevelt and Kennit Roosevelt at Rogaf, but the rest of the expedition were prosent, waving farewell to the. faithful servants who had been with them during a year's dangers. 'For the last few days the camp has been at its busiest, owing to an influx of Greek and Syrian traders from the Congo, who had expected the remaining goods to be thrown away for nothing. One trader expressed tho view: 'Roosevelt too big; ho business man.'i They, however, bad not counted upon Cunningham, who, greatly to their chagrin, insisted upon fair prices."
