THE ITALIAN DEFEAT.
History or the War In Africa which Ita,
Cost Italy So Dear.

Pittsburgh Times: The great defeat
inflicted by the AbysInians upon the
Italians has attracted public attention
to the cause of the trouble. Fhls arose
from the overthrow OF the Egyptian
control in the Soudan by the Mahdi
and his followers at the time when Cor
don met his fate at Khartoum. Egypt
claimed territory on the Red Sea Mt
Massownh and other points on tho
coast of AbyssInla which 1t was not
able to hold and the ultimate soveT-
eighty OF which was In the sultan or
Turkey. AbysSinla claimed the terri
tory also. but because OF It's uiilicuity
of defense was not unwilling to have
the English hold It. The latter. how
ever, having their hands full Mt the
time, permitted the Italians, who were
seeking to extend their sphere OF In
fiuence In Africa, to occupy Massowah
in January. 1895. At the time King
John was the supreme ruler OF Abys-
sInIa and Menclek II. was King of Shoa,
one OF the tributary kingdoms. The
ItnlIan occupation was not pleasant TO
King John and when they sought TO en-
large their territory he resisted. He
was, however, assaulted by the Mahdists
and was killed in battle with them,

AbysslnIa and straightway became

This Is not the first disaster to the

peated severe defeats have been In
iIicted upon them by the Abysslnians,
who are n brave and warlike people.
They are nominal Christians since A.

NEW YORK. March 5.-The Ameri-

Free traders have been very joyful
over an increase in our exports of

as this Is not brought about by the
sacrifice OF our home market, 1t Is. In

in 1884. This includes an increase OF

refined or manufactured, leaving only
80 10, SSl OF Increase for all other man
I,factures exported. But the larger
value of our mineral oil exports has
been Of no value TO American labor
because It represented shipments Of
a.. 1905 gallons less oil in 1895 than In
1894. The refining or manufacturing OF
AZ, 0OO. 900 gallons less oil for export has
deprived labor OF work. The Increase
In value merely represents an increase
in the profits OF the oil combine. which
advanced the price of oil so sharply
last year. It did no good to American
labor. Our labor suffered through
having less oil to refine or manufacture.
and our labor also suffered through
having to pay more money for oil when
earning lower wages.
Excepting the oil exports, we have
$9,10l.S 3l worth more OF American man
ufactures shipped abroad last year
than in 1894. Against this. we must set
the increase in our imports Of foreign
manufactures. thus leaving the follow

1t should be noted that our manufac-

as much a "manufacture" as oil. In

There Is disposition to find fault
with the recent management OF the

necessary to go back to the admlnistra-

The bankruptcy OF this great property
