It has 3,757 church members and 11,169 Benday scholars, of whom more than 6,000 are adalta. It has 5 colleges and 19 schools, with 14,866 pupile, More than 1,000 of these latter are in Cairo About two tenths of the scholars are Protestante; five tenths are Copts, and two teeth Moslems These scholars pay nearly 59 per set of the total cost of their boole There is hardly any mission station in the world better provided with efficient boole than Cairo, and yet all the workers are striving to increase the accommodation, falling that many more children would come to these schools if there were room to receive them.

EGYPT'S-TRADE.CUSTOMS RETURNS FOR JULY

According to the Custom House returns for July, just issued, the value of the merchandise imported into the country during that month amounted to LE 1,786,070, a against 1.B. 1,609,936 dering the same month last year, which shows an increase of over A quarter of a million for the month,Prom the 1st January to July 31 the imports Amounted in value to LR 12,399,649, a compared to LE. 10,937,992 in the corresponding period of last year, showing a total incrosss of L.B. 1,369,427, which may be considered highly satisfactory. Great Britain as anal beads the list of importing countries, bat while the comparative increase in the month of July only amounted to LE 41,872, or a little over 10% bath Germany and Belgiam have more than doubled their imports, the former progressing from L.E. 66,968 to LE 114.850 and the latter from LE 53,744 to IB. Preneb imports also showed much larger increases than British imports, the figures rising from LE 134,780 to 1K 204,645. These figures are eloquent of the increasing competition which British traders have to meet on the Egyptian market. The imports from the United Kingdom during the month amounted to LE 545,151, as against L.B. 603,979 in July, 1905. If, however, we add to the above figures the imports from British possessions in the Mediterranean (LB 14,188) and in the Far East (LE.59,984) we got a total of "British" imports of LB. 619,693. Torning to exports, we find that the value of these during July amounted to LE 875,721, As compared to LE 1,174,409, a drop of LE $98,688, which is mostly accounted for by the decreased export of cotton, there being a fall of LE 233,567 under this head. The figures for the seven months from January 1 to Jaly 81, however, show a substantial increase of LK 1,246,020 ie the exports, the total being LE 12,030,381. The United Kingdom, which was the largest bayer, decreased her purchases in Jaly from LAR. 535,603 in 1905 to L.B.492,073 in 1906. Germany, who, as we have said, more than doubled her exports to this country, on the other hand, imported less than half the goods she did in the previous July from hoBart. There were also decreased exports to the United States, France, Belgium, Chies t and the Far East, Bassia, Turkey, and Switzerland, while there was an increase in the figures for Austria Hungary, Italy, Spair, and Greece.

PRISON SCURVY

During 1905, 30 cares of sourvy occurred the pries. For the most part, the gums and legs were affected (Reformstory, gems only.) All were of a mild type Treatment consisted in rest, washing out the months with eglor's of potash lotion, and giving extra fresh uncooked vegetables. There were 41 cases at Cairo (Menshish), 6 at Alex sadria, and 1 at Appeal At Menahieh, where there were 39 cases in October, and at Andris prisons, all prisoners as well as those attacked with sourvy, were for a month given fresh uncooked vegetables daily. For some time now, apart from the fresh cooked vegetables daily (94 derbez) fresh uncooked vegetables (28 derbez), are given once a week The Egyptians, outside the prison, consume a considerable quantity of fresh uncooked vegetables daily.

LORD CROMER'S SUCCESS.EGYPTIAN VISITOR'S TRIBUTE TO HIS RULE.

"It is not possible for me to explain properly to you how much the Egyptians like Lord Cromer." In these words an Egyptian gentleman, who holds a prominent official position in his native country, and who is at present in London, expressed himself to a "Daily News" representative "He is a father to us, and we would all fight to the death for him. To the small farmer especially (and there are a large number of small boulders in Egypt), Lord Cromer is a great friend. To give you an example, only a very little while ago he introduced a revised system of land taxation, by which the owner of poor land is relieved of some part of the burden of taxation. Formerly, the Pashas and the big owners of land paid practically no land tax, and then property was called osbori, or free.They, of course, possessed the most fertile land. "Now they are made to pay 164 piastres (34%) acre Tand tax, while the owner of poorer land pays less in proportion to the value of his land for agriculture, down to a minimum of 20% an acre. That is jestics. It is marvelous to the small Egyptian farmer to feel that if he has a grievance he can go to Lord Cromer and speak face to face with him, and get attention and justice. Lord Cromer is always traveling among us. You do not bear it over here. He is too quiet a man for that. But we know, and we love him for it." Referring to the cultivation of rope in Egypt, the visitor explained that barley and fodder (or berseem sa bhi called it)-are largely cultivated; whos, Indian core, and cotton are the staple europe in Upper Egypt. The cotton is sold for about £10 to £15 an sor. The price of wheat varies greatly, as it does here. But our whost is fuller in the ear than yours, and our straw is thinner. We are now, of course, almost independent of the weather for our crops since the Assosan dam has been working, and our system of irrigation is wonderful. I have only been a little time in Bagland, a few weeks, but I have soon enough to show me that you ought to copy it "You have taught us a great deal, but you have not learnt that lesson yourselves. We had to learn it, the natural conditions were such that we could not choose otherwise. You can rely a little on raios, and therefore you leave it to chance to get enough water for your Selda Bat it is not right. I am sure it is not right, and sometimes you will suddenly find a big drought and then-then you will start irrigation all over the country. "We have an Agricultural Society in Egypt now, which is studying all questions of agricul ture that affect the country, and it is doing very good work. Also, on Lord Cromer's initiative, a complete survey has been made of the land and many abuses on the taxation farms they were paying too moob tax; they were charged for acres that they did not posers and had never possessed That is another injustice that Lord Cromer has recently removed”

ENGLISH POLICY IN THE SUDAN EXTORTS ADMIRATION

The spectsole of the steady methodical ad vane of the English in the gyptiss Badan is one which M. Henri Lorin, writing in the "Deptoke Coloniale," declares to be admirable. The administration of the Body is becoming yearly loss and less military, wys this writer. The English carefully avoid encouraging the Musalman religion and committing the blunder sometimes made by the French of developing a kind of Masalman clericalism. M. Lorin summarizes the civilizing efforts of Bogland in the Body, and says that this masterly activity is rich in suggestion for other Powers

YEMEN'S HORRORS

EGYPT IN PARLIMENT.THE "TRIBUNE" AND SIR E. GREY

Sir Edward Grey's speech about the Denishwai affair on Saturday was far from removing the unfortunate impression created by his original reply to Mr Dillon. As Mr. J. M. Robertson argues is the close reasoned letter which we print today, the alleged fanaticism of the Egyptians was never a convincing reason for foregoing Parliamentary criticism, hut in any case, it falls to the ground with Sir K Grey's admission that fanaticism had nothing to do with the villagers' attack on the offer, whom they mistakenly regarded (1) as poachers, and (3) as responsible for the wounding of one of their women. To advise a suspension of criticism until the receipt of the official report was in theory proper, but that argument should have postponed the defense as well as the attack. But on Baterday, despite the publication of the report, Sir E Grey thought to complain that such critisiems Mr. Robertson's moderate and reasoned speech would make the conduct of the Empire impossible. Mr. Balfour himself hardly went farther in his denial of the prerogatives of Parliament, while to promise Mr. Findlay promotion in such a context war, in effect, to encostage every official in the Empire to ignore, and even to sit in judgment on, the House of Commons. If Egyptians were to draw the inference that they have no right of appeal against the competent, bet not infallible, baressoracy which ralee them, and that any attempt to present their grievances will be denounced by Ministers as an offense against the Bapire, the government of Egypt might be simplified, indeed, but we doubt if it would be rendered easier. Jobs Strange Winter, writing in the "De Telegraph" on British squeamishner, mys Take the instance of the murder of an officer in Egypt a few weeks ago. Several officers were invited to a pigeon about, and one paid the penalty of his life, and several others were seriously maltreated. I do not myself look upon pigeon shooting as a particularly elevating or manly kind of sport; at the same time, pignon-shooting is allowed, and death is a very heavy price to pay for indulging in it. But I really fail to see why we in Bogland should ory Shams upon the authorities for the very just punishment which was meted out to the perpetrators of this foal warder. We are altogether booming too squeamish Public opinion, as conjured up by that peculiar power which we call the liberty of the Press, is becoming in these ister days just a veritable bagia with which, if we are not very careful, we shall have great difficulty in dealing.

THE NATIVE PRESS.

ONOMANY AND ROYPT On the 14th inst. there appeared in "Al Minbar" a quense to the interview with a certain German, to which we referred the 8 other day. According to the article, of which we write, this German remarked that England has an object in accusing the Egyptians of fanaticism. "It is uot," he remarked, "for the sake of appointing a few more British officials, but because the English are alarmed to see so many companies Bloated every day in Belgium, France, Germany, ate, in order to develop the resources of Karpt. They are afraid of being last in the race and that the presence of foreign ospital in Egypt will make it international, so they try to frighten the European so as to reserve the country to himself He added that the policy of Great Britain in her colonies was to monopolie everything and remarked to his interviewer, "Let me remind you how they invent cholera, plagas, and other pests. Ma conscience! THE ITALIAN CONSUL AND FANATICI Writing under date of the 15'h inst, "Al Ahram" sys-We have already mentioned that in the reports relative to the Dennis Wai affair drawn up by the Greek Consoles for their Government it was stated that the severity of the sentences had had a beneficial effect on all classes of the population. Since then, we have learnt from certain sources that in the reports sent by the Italian Agey the Conals deny the existence of fanaticism, properly so called, and are of the opinion that the sentences were severe and bard. According to the more influential Italian papers, such as "La Tribass," which is semiofficial, the Italians are among those who disapprove of the severity of the sentences and who have such belief in the rumor that fanaticism reigns in the country.

La Délégation a cependant trouvé quel projet de Conseil do That sim était dif howleen réalisable tant au point de vue pratique qu'à post de vus des dépenses considérables qu' il ne manquerait pas d'estratser. Asi avait-il décidé de demander à l'Etat de consacrer au transfert des échecs de Gabbari la sice précédemment réservée au Mex pour le transfert des cimetières. La Délégation avait suggéré que le transfert des échecs fût opéré e compte à demi avec le Gouvernement, de tel façon que abuse des deux parties supportera la moitié des dépenses et bénéficierait de i moitié des terrains de Gibari qui deviendraient libres à la suite de leur désaffectation Le Ministère des Finances avant d'émettre son avis sur la question a demandé à la Muni cipalité de lui faire avoir un plan de la localité occupée par les brèches et en autre de la alas précédemment réservée as cimetière et o afin de pouvoir examiner la question avec toute l'attention qu'elle mérite. Ces plans ont eu envoyés au Ministère Il nous semble cependant que le moyen la plus efficace et qui rencontrerait le moins de difficultés avec le minimum de déposes serait de nous occuper tout d'abord du transfert de 60 sèches érigées sur les terrains de l'Etat, et il y a lieu de noter que leur importance aeel pas à dédaigner paia qu'elles occupent comme nous l'avons dit près de 72,000m. de terrain. Leur transfert nous serait facilité par le fait que les locations consenties par l'Etat expirent à la fin de l'année courante Si le Ministère des Finances voulait bien notifier ces loos taires qu'il n'entend pas leur consentir des nouvelles locations, nous aurions toute facilité pour les obliger à se transporter dans la zone nouvelle qui leur serait réservée, et il n'ont pas douteux que si les locataires actuels avaleat l'amarante que la Municipalité leur accorderait de nouveaux terrains en tosta propriété moyen- moyen a été employé avec succès vie à vis des tanneurs de Chatby, et il est certain que c'est l'appât de la propriété qui les andoura,és à changer de résidence Qaat az which construites sur des terrains dont la propriété appartient à leurs occupants os ne s'en préoc cuper ait pas pour le moment, à moins que leurs propriétaires se consentent à ce désir de leurs propriétés moyennant une légère indemnité ajoutée à la faveur le l'octroi d'un terrain en échange so Mex. La Municipalité se contenta tait pour le moment d'exproprier celles de ce 6b bébés qui se trouvaient sur le parcours des voies publiques projetées et il est certain qu'il se se passera pas longtemps avant que les propriétaires de terrains so Gabbari sauvent as Mex leurs anciens voisins. Il n'est du reste pas équitable de se pas permettre à ces pro priétaires de profiter de droit de propriété qui leur appartient et qui aura son importance le jour car la localité de Galbardi sers affectée à la construction de choubane et de grande dépité de commerce, destination que rend toute us tarelle la situation particulière de cette localité. Tel est en résumé la proposition que je me permets de suggérer en ce qui concerne les bûches de Gabbari et il en découle qu'il y a lieu d'insister auprès de Gouvernement a) Pour que les locations consenties dans oet te localité ne soient pas renouvelées 4) Que les terrains précédemment destinés In cimetière soient consacrés sex ébèches 2-Chèches de Toulguick-Les terrains sur lesquels s'élèvent ces échecs, ont été adjoints au cimetière de la Colonne Pompée par son élargissement en vertu d'une décision du Conseil Privé datée du 7 Shawwal 1289, approuvée par rescrit souverain de 15 Wa Lkabda de la mine année. La Commission Municipale avait sur la demande du Comité des cimetières musulmans, prié le Gouvernement en 1901 de donner suite à cette affectation et le Ministère des Finances avait bien voulu on jan 1902 décider de remettre le terrain en Comité des cimetières musulmans, mais charge par la Municipalité de supporter les frais d'expropriations des échecs qui y sont élevées. Il résulte d'un rapport dread par Mohamed Bey Oman que le terrain en gestion meure 48,600 mètres carrés dont 97,860 occupés par des dabbous: Le Chef de Tans' avait préconisé dans son rapport de 18 novem bre 1904 le transfert desdites dépêches à localité dite de Kom-EL Hadid ob existante vastes terrain appartenant à l'Etat. Nous se pouvons que nous rallier à cet avis pour la 1 Que de terrain est proche de la localité Qu'ancien inconvénient n'existe pour l'affectation de Kom Hadid construction d'assécher,cette localité étant usine et permet Mast, va son étendue, que des fortes larges et adrias y ancient tracées. Les concessions de terrains dans cette alse seraient accordées dans les mêmes conditions que celles qui seraient adoptées pour les terrains de Mex, c'est-à-dire des prix de faveur et à la condition que les constructions à ériger feat conformer aux prescriptions qui exigerait la Municipalité tant Au point de vue de l'hygiène qu'à tous autres point de vue. Etant donné que les locations consenties pour toutes ces échecs expirent à la fin de l'année costante, il y aurait égale went Ties de demander avec insistance à l'État de rompre les contrats intervenus avec les locataires et de ne plus les renouveler sfi de faciliter les mesures à prendre tendant au transfert des occupants des dites ébauches à Kom EL Hadid. Le Gouvernement serait prié également de consentir à ce que cette dernière le soit affectée au transfert des bobines de Tube guish. Nous pensons que l'Etat y trouvera d'autant moins d'objets qu'il a profité des prix de location des éphèbes, de Tosh Guieb durant de nombreuses années et qu'il envia gers certainement avec sollicitude l'intérêt hygiénique qui s'attache au transfert des échecs 3-Chèches de Chatby-Ces échecs sont devenus en partie sur des terrains de l'Est dont cession a été faite à certaines sociétés de bienfaisance et en partie sur des terrains qui sont la propriété de leurs occupants. Nous pensons que leur transfert pourrait être facilité si le Gouvernement voulait bien affecter une partie de ses terrains de Hadera à ce bat et oder des terrains aux propriétaires des dépêches à des prix de faveur. 4- Echichens de Ragheb Packs et Gebel Guella-L'appellation d'échecs serait impropre à ces habitations qui constituent plats des buttes misérables ou des mares indigne d'abriter des and res houssin, s'étant comportée que de bidons de pétrole jointe à des matériaux et des débris sans nou.
