Held Captive for Three Years at El Obeid by the Mahdi—The Misston- ary’s Story ofthe Slanghter of Hicks Pasha's Army—Olivier Pain’s Ad- vent and Death in the Soudan, ‘By Telegraph to the Post-Disparo a. New Yors, November 4—The Vienna corre spondent of a moruing paper, writing ander date of October 20. says: Monsignor Legaro. Vicar Apostolic for Central Africa, and Father Bonomi, the famous missionary who was held captive for three years at Ei] Ob«id by the Mahdi, arrived in thig city from Verona three days ago at the request ofthe Emperor, The Catnolic Missions at Khar- toaim, it wilibe remembered, were under Austrian Protection andthe Sisters of the schools were Austrian subjects, and Herr Honsal, the Austrian Consul, was slain with Gordon when the city fell before the hordes of the Mahdi Pere Bonomi leaves Vienna to-day for the Soudan, owing to news received from Egypt that the Mahdi's successor at Omduraman has offered to release the remaining orisoners fora money ransom. During bis brief stay bere Pere Bonomi was* the recipient of the most distinguished honora, and was besieged by (he representatives of all leading continental journals. The story of his adventures reads like @ romance, and his revelations dissi- pate much of the mystery that veiled the faise prophet from European eyes. Pere Bonomi ives the first detailed account of the utier aunihti- ation.of Hic«s Pasha’s army of 12000 men. This battle, or slaug ter. rather, took place near the iittie village of Kashgee, thirty-six miles south of Ei Obe.d. The oniy European who was known to have escaped the massacre was a Prussian named Gustave Cioz. a former Utlan sergeant, and durin H.o«s ba's campaign attacted tu the person o Edmond O'Donovan, the famous correspondent of the London Daily News. A few days vefore the battle this man, impelled by cowardice or prudence, perhaps. on seeing the deplorable con tition of the army,and the impossibility of success, ried from the cam os the night. He feil into the bands of ‘he rebeis, who were swarming about the camp, and after being despolled of everything im true Arab fashioa, was ieu barefooted into the of the Mahdi. Tweof the missionaries were sum- moned (0 act as interpreters, aod the Matedi inter- rogated him minutely op the condition of the enemy's forces. On bearing the derailed story of the demor.uiization, cowardice and tack of dis- cip.ine of the Egyptian army, the Mahdi agen ng | tual the traitor was teliing lies in order to wake @Yy good impression on his captors. The story f as teld by Pere be summed up &, @& . Mandi concentrated his entire forces at E] Obeid and waited till THE UA-FATED HICKS struck his camp at Kahad The forces of the En. lish) Genera: having to traverse a large stretch of prickly bush were compelled to breaks ranks and scatter into groups to vupen & passage and trans port the baggage. While tous engaged tue Mahdi suddenly struck them with hisfuli force. “It wag in no sense a baitie, but a carnage, a series of par- tial combats where a handful! of soldiers pemmed on all sides desperutely struggied till death, against innumerable horde." The missionaries secured possession of a diary or historical account of the entire campaigu kept by Hicas Pash aud the papers and note books of some of the officers of the ilbfated expedition. These memorials, whose value the saissionaries fuly appreciated, were uvfortuvaiely lost when the Maid) set forth for tue siege of Khartoum towards the end of March, 1884 Abduiluh, the Mandi’s calipb or lieutenant, hud the miss.onaries hustied frum their tents without a word of warne ing, and would vot allow then te remove anything even the commonest necessaries, Pere Lonom endeavored tosave the mauusoripta, bul without success On the road to Kuartoum aod sine miles from Rabad is the Mouniain of Daeir, inhabited by brigauds whom the Evyptian Governmest were never avie to subjugaie They refused to join Ei Mand:’s stan.arcd and the latter aid siege to tuelr mountain fastness with over 50,000 men. The brigauds fought with desperate energy and beat tue bosts of BE) » andi with tremendous loss. This was tue first defeat inflicted on tue faise prophet. Meantime, the Mand! pruoeeeded to Khartoum and ove of bis lieutenants returned to BE) Obed, bring- ing back tue MimsOnaries Who were placed under vonirol of Sherif Jia:moud, Governor of Kordofan, and uncle of ¥- Mahdi The Sisiers of were beld by Hi Matdi aud carried wo Owdura man, pear Khartoum, where they : pow beid by how.
