Colonies and Dependencies.

The following is a list of the various Colonies and regions at present (1904) under the protection or influence of Germany, the estimates given being necessarily vague :—

[blocks in formation]

1 Exclusive of the Bay with an area of about 200 square miles, and the neutral zone with an area of about 2,500 square miles, and population of 1,200,000.

The value of the imports from the German colonies into Germany in 1903 was 7,535,000 marks; of the exports from Germany to the colonies, 24,486,000 marks (or 376,7507, and 1,224,3007. respectively).

Togoland.

Togoland, with Little Popo and Porto Seguro, situated on the Slave Coast, in Upper Guinea, between the Gold Coast Colony on the west and the French Colony of Dahomey on the east, has an estimated area of 33,000 square miles, and an estimated population of 1,500,000; European popu. lation, January 1, 1904, 189, of whom 179 were German. It extends from long. 1° 14' E. to long. 1° 38' E. The length of coast line is about 32 miles, but inland the territory, which lies between the rivers Volta and Mona, widens to three or four times that breadth. Togoland is placed under an imperial governor, assisted by a secretary, an inspector of customs, and a local council of 7 unofficial members Lome, the chief port, is regarded as

the capital; Little Popo, Porto Seguro, and Bagida are also on the coast. The government stations are Misahöhe with Kpandu, Kete Kratshi with Bismarckburg, Sansanne-Mangu, Bassari, Atakpame, Sokodé. Togo, which has given name to the region, is situated on Lake Togo. The military force is small. At Sebbe-vi there is a Government school with 103 pupils; at Lome another with 34 pupils; at Sebbe-vi 54 native pupils, at Lome 28, are boarded and trained to act as clerks and interpreters in the interior. At Lome there is also a school for handicraft with 25 pupils. The three missionary societies at work in the colony have 101 schools attended by 4,372 native children, at the chief centres of population. The climate at the coast is unhealthy for Europeans. Inland the country is hilly with streams and watercourses. There are long stretches of forest and brushwood, and dry plains alternate with cultivable land. Maize, yams, tapioca, ginger, and bananas are cultivated to some extent by the natives, most of whom are Ewe negroes; oil-palms, caoutchouc, and dye-woods grow in the forests; but the main commerce is the barter trade for palm oil, palm kernels, and gum, carried on by a few factories on the coast. There are now considerable plantations of palms, and coffee, cocoa, and kola culture and cotton-growing are being tried. At Lome experiments are being made with rubber, fibrous, and other plants. In the Sokode and Mangu districts are several herds of cattle; throughout the colony sheep, goats, poultry, and pigs of a small breed are found, but nowhere in large numbers; in some districts horses of small size are bred. Native industries are weaving, pottery, smith-work, straw-plaiting, wood-cutting. There is no mining by Europeans, but the natives in the Sokode district extract iron and make implements and arms. Revenue and expenditure, 1905-6, 2,265,640 marks, no imperial contribution being required. Total imports (1903), 6,104,863 marks; exports, 3,616,061 marks. The exports comprised palm kernels, 818,051 marks; palm oil, 405,145 marks; rubber, 639,995 marks. The chief imports were cottons, 1,827,493 marks; spirits, 1,105,815; tobacco, wood, iron, and colonial produce. In the year 1903, 297 vessels of 457,032 tons (287,729 German, 84,635 British, and 82,523 French vessels) entered the ports. There are good roads connecting Lome with Misahöhe and with Atakpame, and a net-work of roads is in construction or projected. A railway is being laid between Lome and Anecho (Little Popo). The chief post offices are at Lome, Anecho, and Agome Palime, which are connected by telegraph and telephone not only with one another but also with the British Gold Coast Colony on the west and French Dahome on the east, and are thus in communication with Europe by two cables.

Kamerun.

The Kamerun Protectorate, lying between British Nigeria and the French Congo, extends from the coast north-eastwards to the southern shore of Lake Chad. The area is estimated at 191,130 square miles; the population at 3,500,000. The native population consists of Bantu negroes near the coast, and Sudan negroes inland. On January 1, 1904, there were 710 whites, of whom 638 were German. The protectorate is placed under an imperial governor, assisted by a chancellor, two secretaries, and a local council of three representative merchants. The seat of Government is at Buëa. The military force consists of
