STORMY TIMES
IN ABYSSINIA
Under Rule of Dead Emperor's
Daughter, Many Battles Have
Been Fought

London, Feb. 17.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press.)
Abysssinia has been having stormy
time since the death of Emperor Men
elk. In the past few months TIE new
emperor has been deposed, civil war
has broken out and several battles
have been fought between the fac
tions, in one of which nearly twenty
five thousand men were killed. The
new ruler is Empress Zauditu, a
daughter of Menelik.
An account of happenings in Abys-
s1nia has just reached London from
Europeans living in the capital, Ads
Abeba. One letter says:
LidJ Jeassu, the young emperor,
who succeeded his grandfather Meme
lik, has gradually come under Turk
ish influence and had in many ways
ot1ended the Christian population.
The legations of the entente powers in
September sent in q joint protest and
this was followed, a few days later,
by a meeting of the ministry which
declared the emperor deposed and en-
tEroned in his place the Princess Eau
ditu, with Ras Taffari as regent and
heir to the throne.
$4,000 Killed
Things were quiet for a few weeks
while the deposed emperor's partisans
were gathering. Then suddenly MI
kael, ruler of Wollo and the most
powerful chief in the country, de-
clared himself in favor of the deposed
emperor and marched against Ads
Abeba. Tie first battle was fought
some distance outside the capital,
where the government army of 5000
men, under Ras Sul-Seged, was vir-
tually annihilated and Seged killed.
There was q good deal of excite
ment in the capital and the legations
prepared for attack, but the enemy
was slow in appearing and the new
empress lad time to mobilize strong
force which, under the personal COM
mand of the war minister, met the
enemy on October 81. The battle
lasted all day and resulted in the en-
emy's complete route. The empress
side had ten thousand killed out of
60, 900 engaged, while the enemy is
said to have lost Il 900 killed.
THE manner of fighting was primi-
tive. At first they fired with rifles.
but becoming tired of this, they threw
these weapons aside and dashed at
ones another with scimetars and
spears
Grand Review Held Then
There was great rejoicing in Ads
Abeba over the outcome of the bat
tie and upon the return of the victor
ious army a grand review was held
by the empress in person. SEe sat on
cushions covered with gorgeous tapes

Each chief rode at the head of

empress he dismounted, drew his

the deeds he had done. This was
