ENGLAND IN EGYPT
The Death of the Khedive Will
Not Alter Her Policy.
THE QUESTION OF A REGENCY
France and Russia May Incite the Sultan to
Establish 0ne-kalnOky FayOr5
British Interests.

LONDON, Jan. S.-[Copyright, 1892, by
the New York Associated Press. The
cabinet council to-day was intended to be
the last until the eve of the opening of
parliament. The death of the Khedive,
however, upset these plans, and the min
listers are now considering
THE NEW SITUATION IN EGYPT.
According to information CLEANED since
the council, the cabinet decided to treat
the accession of Abbas Pasha as an event
not altering in any wise the Brit
ish policy. AS Abbas Pasha will
not attain his majority until July IA,
the ministers foresee, and probably
have been warned, that France and Russia
will incite the Sultan and support his
claim as suzarein to establish regency.
Even six months of regent nominated by
the Sultan might destroy the British power
in Egypt and certainly would lessen Brit
ish prestige. The character of Abbas
Pasha, which is not yet formed, might &C
quire under regent a bias hostile to Brit
lsh interests. Abbas is credited with
IMBIBING ENGLISH IDEAS
and sympathies from his tutor, Al Butler,
who was long in the Khedive's service and

Oxford Abbas speaks English tluenty, as
we'll as French, German and Arabic. He
is outspoken on the Egyptian question.
During his sojourn in Vienna he
frequently expressed the conviction that
the British occupation was necessary.
Mr.. Philips, of the embassy, waited upon
Abbas to-day and the result of the inter-
view between them reached the foreign
Office in London. 1t is understood the tele-
gram was of a compromising nature re-
garding the new Khedive's inclination not
to trouble the British regime in Egypt.
| Count Kolnoky, the Austrian Hungary
minister, and a strong. steadfast supporter
of British rule in Egypt to-day had a pro-
longed interview with Abbas and Mr..
Philips at the railway station. The prompt
RECOGNITION OF ABBAs AS KHEDIvE
by most of the European powers was due
to the instant and unhesitating diplomacy
of Lord Salisbury. Simultaneous commu-
nications from Cairo and London elected
kilograms from the Turkish Grand Vlzier
to Gehmi Pasba, the president of the
Egyptian council, indicating that the Sui
tan and suzarein had named Abbas as
Khedive and desired the present ministry
to continue in Office unit Alb
