In the debate on Eastern African affairs
Lord Salisbury declared absolutely that there
would be no expedition into Soudan, hut
that Suakim must not be abandoned. lie
said he would not discuss the question OF
how far the garrison az Suaklm must be in
creased. Int the whole character Of ope-
ratons must be enlarged. ANY policy that
was based on the idea that the Friendly
tribes would prefer the Government Of Eng
land TO that Of Egypt was founded upon
sand. Those who advised the Government
TO seize Suakim and hoist the English lag
