 Most of last winter Father Sheridan spent in the south because of i'll health. For several years he had been suffering from rheumatism.

General Manning, who took command of the British expedition in Somaliland last November after a reverse suffered by Colonel Swayne, has not proved suc- cessful in his campaign. Columns de- tached from the force have been badly beaten by the Mullah's followers, the most serious defeat being the ambush ing of Colonel Plunkett's flying detach- ment Of POS men with two maxin,s on April IT, when Colonel Plunkett, all his officers and practically the entire force was wiped out. The last advices receiv- ed in London, June 16, were to the effect that General Manning himself was sur- rounded and unable to assist Colonel Cobb, whose column was in serious corner at Callady, and was on half ra- tions. One of the causes of the non- success of the expedition has been the cowardice of the native Somali regi- ment. of which so much was hoped when it was recently formed. Only a few days ago news came that the native camel corps had mutinied. The opera tions against the Mad Mullah, who first raised the tribes against the British in 1899, have already cost $2,000,000. A de- sire has been manifest to abandon the campaign, but in view of the predica- ment of General Manning's forces it has been Bound necessary to order British troops in India to the field of operation, and when they arrive the British expe- dition in Somaliiand will consist of 800 British, 1,200 Indian troops and 4000 natives
