LONDON, Oct. 13.-EXperienced geog-
raphers in London do not take the same
confident view of the German expedi-
ton for the relief of Emin Bey which is
taken in the fatherland. Their Opin-
ion is that unless it can be con Verted
into regular military enterprise it will
not be able to proceed 200 miles from
the coast. According to private let
tiers received in London, the in
terror of German East Africa is
simply in a blaze of rebellion
against the European residents. Be-
sides, it is certain that the expedition
+ cannot start as early as was expected,
mainly for want of funds. The sub
scriptions promised are large enough,
but nothing can be done till the COM
mander of the expedition has money
actually in hand with which he
can hire natives for caravan.
The chances are that the Ger
man Emin expedition will fare
no better than Maj .Barttlelot's unless it
is subsidized by the German govern
ment. In spite of the stories of disaster
which come from Africa, there seems
to be no checking the rage for
expeditions there. The idea is being
seriously entertained in more than one
quarter in England of fresh adventure,
CUTTING TIE CONTINENT.
either direct from north to south or
from south 10 north. The former route
will probably be chosen, provided the
necessary funds for such an enter
prise, which will be considerable, can be
supplied. Subscriptions are at present
coming in at rate which promises
early success. The chief reason
advanced for giving preference
to the route from north to
south is that native members of such
an expedition would not be likely to be-
come disheartened or demOralized by
coming in contract with various tribes
if they did not encounter such difficult
les at the commencement of their Jour-
ney as would be the case if they ira
veled from south to north. The late
Montague Kerr contemplated an enter
prise of this kind, and had he carried
it out would have explored the Lake
Chadd district on his way South to Cape
Colony. But perhaps this part of the
scheme may also even yet be carried
out. The rising against Europeans in
Zanzibar now extends along the entire
coast of the Sultanete from the north
ern limit of the Portuguese possessions
near Cape DelgadO to the southern
limits of SOmaliland. The blacks are
ALLIED WITH THE ARABS
in this rising. The gravity of the rising
is greatly increased by the connection
of the Arabs with it, and by the ex-
tremely suspicious conduct of Tippoo
lib in regard to the Stanley expedition.
German and English African explorers
when commenting at the outset on Mr..
Stanley's resolve to trust Tippo lib
pointed that one guarantee of the Arab
traders loyalty would be the reception
he would be likely to meet with at Fan
zibar if he behaved treacherously.
GERMANY MAY
be expected to demand satisfaction for
the Outrages and may possibly be led to
argue that if Zanzibar cannot restrain
its subjects its suZerainty over the coast
zone had better be abolished. Consid-
cradle anxiety prevails at the British
foreign office over the news from India,
AfghaniStan and South Africa. The Situ-
alton is summed up in two little wars in
India at points so distant from each
other as Sikkim and the Black mount
tainS. while Afghanistan is in the fer
ment of rebellion which threatens the
supremacy of England's friend and
prOtege, the present Ameer Abduraha-
man. The last, but not the least dis
astrous event to England. is the re-
ported killing by the USutus of King
Usibepu, another friend and protege of
England in Zululand whereby the
capture, Imprisonment and death of
England's great prisoner, King Cete-
waye, Is avenged.
