compelled TO pay monthly nearly
10000 rupees to recoup the company
for the cost of the oreticsl administration.
which has been practically abandoned since
September, and the company make no re-
payments to any officials or soldiers on the
coast except at one place. The company
has thus driven vast body of malcontents
into the insurgent ranks, hating the Sultan
and company alike as being responsible for
their destitution, and it has entirely de
stroyed the Sultans power. II is rumored
the Sultan has repeatedly demonstrated with
the German Consul on the Germa rs want Of
success. In open durbar recently the Sultan
stated that he had received only 80 900 OF
the customary 10000 rupees in December
for revenue on German literal. The
