REVOLUTION IN ZANZIBAR,

British Make Short Work of Usurpers and Slave Traders. The British protectorate over Zanzibar and the adjacent territory from the coast to the boundaries of Uganda dated from June 15, 1895, when the Imperial Govern- assumed the responsibility of governing all that territory which has been leased by the Suitan of Zanzibar to the British East Africa Company ; and the administration ig now under the direct control of the British Consul General at Zanzibar. The

island of Zanzibar bas a population of sbout 750,000 in arn area of about 6 5 “quare miles The neighboring isla nl of Pemba Las a population ot 5),900 im an aera of 360 square miles. ‘The popvlation

of the town of Zanzibar is about 30,060. It numbered in 1*95 about 50 Englishmen and =67,°00 British India subjecte, 5 Germaus and a few Frenchnen, Amer

, Italians, Greeks and Roumanians, the

latter nationalities being uuder Briii-ii protection. Germany ceded her rights his locality to England in 1896, as part

recognition of the cession of Heligvland. Not long since the Sultan of Zanziba

died—killed it is »uspected by meane of

oison— and his position was usurped by

chief named Said Khalid, who seized ih- palace and proclaimed himself Sultan. He had with bim at the time about 2500 well armed and well diver:plined me ¢ 900 Askaris, who have b trained under British offie-rs, } wnty ammunition and aonmber of field guas and other pieces of artillery The latter fwere trained on the British warehips,

During the night there werea numbe of disturbances among the natives in the yutskirts of the town, but they were promptly suppressed by the 350 Britisi:

marines and sailors, who hal been landed to protect property and guard the consuls of Great Britain.

It is understood, however, that Said Kiatid received further reinforcement: from the slave dealers, who flocked to hi- support, as the formal hoisting of the Brit ish flag over Zanzibar would mean tir liberation of about 2,500 slaves, and « leathblow to slavery iu this part of Ex Africa.

Shortly before nine o’clock a naval offi cer was sent tothe palace equare wit) snother message fur Said Khalie, asking him if he was prepared to surrender 1: xccordance with the terms of the ultime ium, 7and again notifyiog him that th- pa'ace in whch he had barricaded him seif would be shelled at nine promptly, if he failed to haul down hi- Hag before that time.
