CAPTURES
MENELIK
AbysSinian Monarch Received u.
S. Expedition and Gives
Reception,

MARSEILLES, France. Feb. 1.-The
following details of the governmental
mission to King Menelek of Abyssinia
which was led by United States Con.
sui Robert p Skinner have been OBJ
tanned. Mr.. SINNERS party has ar,
rived here on board the steamer Vic
toria
The American marines and blueiack-
cts who accompanied the expedition
were left at Alden and went on to join
the American gunboat Machias.
Consul Skinner and the other mem
bers Of the party are in good health,
and they speak enthusiastically of the
reception accorded them by King Men
elek On the way to the coast the party
saw one elephant and heard number
of lions, but experienced no exciting
adventures. In the course Of an inter
view Mr., Skinner said
president Roosevelt selected most
opportune time for establishing rela
lions with Ethiopia, as Americans
heretofore have been too Indifferent to
the remarkable development which is
now going on in Abyssinia. Our cotton
cloths pass through many hands be
fore being sold at high prices in Abys-
sinia, but now Americans have oppOr-
tunities to conduct their own trade.
King Menelek will send some of the
products of his country to the st. Louis
exposition as well as commission
composed of able men to show the
Americans commercial opportunities in
Abyssinia. The king is a broad minded
statesman who will welcome Ameri-
cans
During the visit of the Skinner party
at the capital King Menelek received
them surrounded by an imposing as
semblage Of 1000 functionaries. The
escort of American marines established
camp called Camp Roosevelt, which
attracted great deal of interest The
king made personal inspection Of the
camp, which lasted for three hours,
and after having witnessed the maneu-
vers of the marines he asked one of the
men for his gun and loaded and fired
| 1t. This act on the part of the king
aroused much enthusiasm and impress
ed the visiting Americans with the as
similative ability of the Abyssinians.
Consul Skinner says further that the
country is being rapidly modernized
and that new roads, bridges water
supplies. telephones and telegraph lines
are being constructed. He considers
the Abyssinians to be the Japanese
of Africa. He points out, however.
that the postal and banking systems
are defective and unsatisfactory. The
money is on silver basis. Consul
Skinner believes that Americans win
find large field for activity in the
gold, coal petroleum and asphalt pos
sibilities of Abyssinia.
| According TO news received by the
foreign office. King Menelek is not like
lY to leave Abyssinia because OF the
political situation there. There is al
ready candidate for succession to the
throne and he fears that his departure
would be n signal for civil warfare
among the different chiefs. 1t is there
fore considered impossible for the king
