  The goal of this paper is to present and analyse a new sample of cool carbon
(C)stars located in the halo. Twenty three new C stars were discovered. Spectra
are typical of N-type stars with C2 and CN bands and sometimes Halpha in
emission. ... Four objects are particularly red with J-K > 3, with 2 located at
more than 5 kpc. from the Galactic plane. Eight additional objects with similar
properties are found in the literature and our previous works. These 12 C stars
could be useful to study mass loss at low metallicity. Two objects are at
distances of 95 and 110 kpc. They are located in the region with galactocentric
Z < -60 kpc in which the model of Law et al. predicts the Sgr stream to have a
loop. (Abstact abridged)
