~ in the library at Lisbon, he has real
lied the effective occupation required

he has sent troops to occupy the coun-

In view of the approaching conflict
with Great Britain the Negus has acted
like President Kruger of the Transvaal.
and has made extensive warlike prep
arations For the last two years, &C
cording to a writer who is the intimate
friend of the famous Swiss gentleman,
Mr.. Zig, the right-han man of Menellk,
the latter and his great feudal vassals
have imported 100000 guns from
France of the pattern of Gras, 4.OOO,UUO
cartridges, also from France, and sew
eral thousand Remington, Winchester
and Martini guns, besides 5000 IRE
volvers and $4,000 blades for lances.
Mitrailleuses and rapidfire cannon
have not been forgotten, and the Negus
has secured an ample provision of them
The number of AbySSinian soldiers
who can be called upon to make use OF
these weapons is somewhat difficult to
estimate correctly. especially on account
of the feudal character of the army
which is composed of contingents
brought by the vassals of the Negus
and it is not centralized in the latters
hands, except on the battlefield. Still,
Count Antonelli, diplomat and traveller,
estimated at nearly 100000 men the
force that Menelk could put in line
some years ago. He divided this force
as follows: Military ''maison' or escort
of the Emperor, $4,000 soldiers, form
ing a real elite corps; three army corps,
including garrisons and permanent
troops. $4,000 men; militia or contin-
gents furnished by the vassal lords,
114,00O, and, finally, $4,000 volunteers,
or ''partisans," as they are called by
Count Antonelli. Since the publication
of his estimates, the Abyssinian army
has been perfected in its armament, Il
not as to it's numerical strength. The
intelligence department has proved to
be excellent; it is equal and, perhaps,
superior to that created by Lord Kitch-
ener in the Anglo Egyptian service. AS
to military qualities, the bravery and
endurance of the Abyssinian soldiers
have been proved in their campaign
against the disciplined, well-trained and
valiant troops of Italy.

London Papers Just Now Displaying
Much Anxiety
over the Altitude Of the Emperor OF
AhJsslnla Toward England.
Feared That Menelik May Consider
the Present an Excellent Time
to Make a. Demonstration
Against Great Britain, and Set
tie Egyptian Boundary Dispute.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2O.-London papers
Just received display much anxiety over
the attitude Of Menelik, Emperor OF
Abyssinia, toward England. At present
there is a dispute between this potent
ate and Great Britain as to the bound
airy between Egypt and Abyssinia, and
1t is feared that Menelik may consider
the present an excellent time to make
. demonstration against the British.
The question Of the frontier settle
ments was discussed last year at Adds
Adeba, where Mr. Rennel-Rodd. First
Secretary Of the British diplomatic
agency at Cairo, went to deliver mag
nificent presents to the Negus and con-
ciliate him. The Kings of Ethiopia have
always claimed the suzerainty OF the
territories extending northward as 1ar
as Nubia, southwark to Mombasa ana
westward to the White Nile. Menenk
claims to be the owner OF the rlghl
bank Of that river, from the fourteenth
to the second degrees of latitude, just
opposite Fashoda. He reiterated these
pretensions as early as 1891 in a diplo-
matte note addressed to all European
Powers, and the contents of which were
Identical with the claims he discussed
later with the Anglo-Egyptian envoy
Mr.. Kennel Rodd.
The scheme of Cecil Rhodes OF
Cape-to-Cairo railroad, or, rather the
plan of a British empire extending
without any break from the Mediter-
ranean to Cape Town, would be spoiled
if Menelik finally succeeded in planting
the Abyssinian flag over a point on the
White Nile. It is highly improbable
that Great Britain, after having chased
away the French from Fashoda and
the impossible swamps on the left bank
of the Egyptian river, would allow
Abyssinia to deprive her of the free
passage which is assured to her if the
Philippians do not occupy the right bank
of the Nile
This was so evident that before the
Transvaal difficulties England was con-
WINGED of the impossibility of averting
a conflict with Abyssinia and plan of
campaign had been discussed. 1t was
to be of an aggressive character and
looking to a conquest Of Ethiopian ter
ritory. Things look differently now.
Menelik may be the agressor or, rather,
the invader, If he is troubled in his
present occupation Of what he claims to
be his own. Not satisfied with the ter
