ENGLAND’S. CABINET CRISIS.
“William Vernon Harcourt Much Afl‘octed
When Be Announced the Downfall
of the Government—Names of
Probable New Ministers.
LONDON, June 25.—The Marquis of Sal-
isbury conferred today with A. J. Balfour,
the Conservative leader in the house of
commons; the Duke of Devonshire, the
Unionist leader in the house of lords, and
with Joseph Chamberlain, ' the Unionist
leader in the house of ceininons, at his
house in London, and went to Windsor at
1 :80 p. m. in reply to the summons of the
queen, following the resignation of the
Rosebery ministry, which was tendered to
the queen and accepted late on Saturday
afternoon.
The cabinet crisis continues to absorb
the attention of the clubs and persons in-
terested in British politics, and the best
informed speculations regarding the mat-
ter agree in the belief that Lord Salisbury
will accept the task of forming a cabinet
and that a new ministry to be composed
of representatives of both sections of the
Unionist party, although a dissolution of
parliament cannot long be delayed, and it
may not be necessary to fill all the places
in the ministry, as The Times intimates,
before taking steps for an appeal to the
country. Then, according to the pro-
gramme, the Marquis of Salisbury would.
become premier and president of the coun-
cil of ministers, and the Duke of Devon-
shire would become secretary of state for
foreign affairs. Mr. Balfour is said to be
slated for the ofiice of first lord of the
treasury, and Mr. Chamberlain will be-
MARQUIS OF SALISBURY.
come secretary of state for war. George J.
Goschen, formerly chancellor of the ex-
chcquer, is said to be slated for the post of
first lord of the admiralty.
' Dissolution Expected Soon.
Lord Lansdowne, Sir Henry James and
Leonard Courtney, Liberal Unionists, are
also reported to have been selected for
cabinet positions. The Marquis of Lon-
donderry, Conservative, is expected to be
the next Viceroy of Ireland. The principal
members of the Salisbiu'y cabinet must be
re-clcctcd immediately, and the dissolu-
tion of parliament is expect-ed within a
fortnight.
In the house of commons today there
was a very animated scene, and outside
the houses of parliament large crowds of
people assembled, eagerly ,discussing the
situation. The speaker, 'William Court
Gullcy, took the chair at 8 p. m., and soon
afterward the secretary of war, H. Camp-
bell-Bannerman, entered the house amid
prolonged Liberal cheers. Mr. Balfour
followed and was greeted with vigorous
cheering from his supporters.
At 3:30 p. m. the chancellor of the cx~
chequcr, Sir William Vernon Harcourt,
entered the house, and the Liberals rose
in a body and cheered him to the echo.
The supporters of Mr. Chamberlain made
a similar demonstration When the Union-
ist leader entered the house.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt said:
“It is my duty to make the announce-
ment to the house that the division of Fri-
day last was a vote of censure on the sec-
retary of war, than whom never more
able, respected or popular minister held
office. The ngernment, of course, asso—
ciated themselves with" their colleague,
and feeling they were unable to pass the
votes for supply the government resigned,
and their resignation was accepted.
Harcourt Deeply Affected.
‘ ‘ Under ordinary circmnstances it would
have been incumbent to move an adjourn-
ment, but the seals fisheries bill must be
passed before July 1, and when it has
passed its third reading the government
will m'ove the adjournment of the house.”
The chancellor of the cxchequer then
thanked his supporters and acknowledged
the consideration shown to the govern-
ment by his dpponents. Tears were in the
eyes of Sir William when he uttered the
last words.
Mr, Balfour criticised the conduct of
the government. He said he thought the
constitutional manner of proceeding would
have been to advise the queen .to dissolve
parliament, instead of throwing the bur-
_ den of continuing the government on the
oppositiou.
At 3:22 p. m. the house went into com-
mittee on the seals fisheries bill.
Later in the day it was announced that
Salisbury had definitely agreed to under-
take the task of forming a new ministry.
As this was the general expectation the
statement created scarcely'any excitement
or comment, beyond a. chorus of “I told
-you 50..”
There were few peers in the house of
lords when the premier, Lord Rosebcry,
rose at 3:45 p. m. to announce the resig—
nation of the cabinet. ' ‘
The Prince of Wales, the Duke of York

The galleries were crowded'with peer-

aossssar’s PREMIERSHiP.
Some Important Events \Vhich Have 0c-
curred Since It Began.
Lord Rosober'y’s premiership has lasted
a little over 1}; years. Mr. Gladstone’s
speech on March 1 of last year, in an-
nouncing the reluctant acceptance by the
government of the lords’ amendments to
the legal government-bill, was the aged
statesman’s lest speech as prime minister.
Within a day-or two he placed his resig-
nation in the queen’s hands, and on the
Monday following, March 5,,Lord Rose-
bery went down to Windsér' and kissed
hands on his apppointment as first lord of
the treasury and lord president of the
council It trans ired that a medical ex-
amination of Mr. ladstone s eyes had dis-
closed the existence of cataract, rendering
necessary an operation, which was per-
formed subsequently with‘ success.
In one respect the ministry reconstruct-
ed under Lord Rosobory has disappointed
the political prophets. Originally pre-
dictions were ripe that it would not out-
last the year. One source of weakness was
to be found in the fact {that the cabinet
Was not united. Sir Will 1 Harcourt had
a strong claim to the premiership, and the
fact that he was passed over in favor of a
peer having no experience of the house of
commons and but little of public office
tween the two statesmen, which wore al—
ready far from cordial. Thus between
the premier and his lieutenant in 4 the
house of commons there was far from ex—
isting that unity of sentiment which, in
his life of Pitt, Lord Rosebery has declared
to be absolutely necessary between a pre-
mier in the house of lords and the leader
in the lower chamber. The discontent
among the radicals, angered at the selec-
tion of a peer for the premiership, and the
impracticable spirit displayed by a portion
of the Irish party and by certain represent-
atives of the labor interest, all went to
heighten the difficulties of Lord Rosebery’s
position.
At the very outset the new prime min-
ister’s practical embarrassments began.
On the second day of the debate on the
address an amendment of Mr. Labou-
cherc’s regarding the house of lords was
carried against the administration by a.
majority of ten votes, at mishap which
was constitutionally repairedpn the fol-
lowing day by the withdrawal‘of one ad—
dress and the voting of a new one. In
April another adverse vote was recorded
against the ministry. It 'is true that only
a minor municipal matter was involved,
and the cabinet therefore continued in ex—
istence. But the government had made
the division strictly a party one, and the
point of the incident lay in the fact that
the blow was inflicted in spite of a vigor-
ous official attempt to avert it.
For the remainder of the session the
government managed to hold their.own.
The anti-Parnellites voted stanchly with
them at times when the Parnellites were
either absent or inthe opposition lobby.
This was especially noteworthy during the
protracted proceedings on the finance bill
-——the “democratic budget, ” as' it was
called—which was the principal feature
in a session generally acknowledged to
have been tedious and comparatively fruit-
less. An evicted tenant bill, piloted suc-
cessfully through the commons, was killed
in the house of lords. The remaining
features of Lord Rosebery’s premiership,
so fares British internal affairs are con-
cerned, are the formal committal of the
Liberal party tothc “mending or ending”
Of the upper house, and the steps taken to-
strengthcn both the material and the per-
sonnel of the navy.
England’s relations with foreign powers
have generally been harmonious during
Lord Rosalie-I'y’s tenure of power. This
harmony, newcv'cr, was disturbed by the
objections successfully brought by France
and Germany to some of the clauses in
the Anglo-Kongo agreement, while they
line of action pursued in regard to Nica-
ragua did not escape a good deal of sharp
criticism in the United States. A. com-
mercial treaty was signed with Japan,
and there has on the whole been less ten-
sion with France, though a good deal of
innbrage was taken in Paris at Sir Ed-
ward Grey’s definition of English rights
on the upper Nile. But the most notable
feature of Lord Rosebery’s foreign policy
last year was the cordial relations success—
fully establlshcd with the empire of the
czar. The Pamir question was amicably
settled. The recent developments of the
Armenian question have perhaps tended
to affect the entente of which Lord Rose-
bery' spoke with so much evident pride
last November. "'

SAN FRANCISCO, J uno 25.——Tho last
steamer from Yokohama brings the fol-
lowing advices:
Although no international complica-
tions are, apprehended on Formosa’s ac-
count tho latest Kercan developments are
justly regarded with grave anxiety. Count
Inouye, the J apaneso representative at
Seoul, has called ostensibly to take part
in consultations as to the future policy of
Japan, but really, it is believed, to discuss
the question of abandoning entirely the
attempts to introduce social and political
reforms into the corrupt monarchy.
Until a few weeks ago the dominating
influence of the Japanese was securely
maintained, but since the announcement
of the surrender of Japan to the recent
demand of Russia and her allies, the K0-
reans h. vc convinced themselves that
Russia alone is to be feared and courted,
and that they may safely repudiate their
pledges to the island empire. Inouye and
the government leaders are seeking to in-
gratiate themselves with the Russian dip—
lomatic agent by every conceivable device.
The ministry of Kim Hong, which ruled
under Inouyo’s guidance, was overthrown
and of new cabinet formed, the leading
members of which are avowodly opposed
to the adoption of J apaneso methods of
reform. Public affairs are now controlled
by the queen through her adherents in the
administration. Unless Inouye is permit-
ted to employ forcible means his chances
of gaining ascendancy are small.
Japan's Avowed Position.
From the beginning Japan has declared
her determination to act only as a friendly
adviser to Korea, and any attempt to im-
pose her authority by violence would be
inconsistent with her professions and her
true purpose. She hoped that the feeble
country could be made capable" of self
government on civilized- principles. She
now finds that it wishes for nothing but
to be left to its old misrule. The outlook
is full of diil'iculties. If the Japanese gov-
ernment gives up itxtask, it will not only
be vehemently assailed at home, but will
leave Korea at the mercy of Russia, and
that umpire will have no scruples in sc-
ouring for itself all the advantages of the
situation.
It cannot be supposed that Count Ito
and his associates are blind to the awk-
wardness, not to say the danger, of their
position, nor that they will allow the in—
terest of their country to be carelesgly sac-
rificed. All Japan is eagerly waiting to
see in what manner they will undertake to
solve the problem forced upon them by the
resolve of the Korean ruler to renounce the
J ape-nose alliance and to place the king-
dom at Russia’s disposal. Count Inouye
is expected in a few days hence, and a. dis—
closure of the government’s intentions
cannot be long deferred.
Tai Won Kun’s grandson, recently ban-
ished for treason and complicity in mur-
der, is reported to have died. Public opin-
ion crodits the queen of Korea with having
caused him to be assassinated. The J ap-
anese authorities are making strenuous
efforts to prevent the spread of cholera in
Tokyo and other cities through which the
troops returning from China are obliged
to pass. ()n‘v a few isolated cases have
been thus is detected.
The Cruel Chinese.
The Korean government has engaged a
foreign "engraver to prepare plates for a na-
tional paper currency. As the J apaneso
soldiers are gradually withdrawing from
Manchuria, they are followed by lawless
bands of Chinese, who treat the inhabit-
ants with merciless cruelty. One hundred
and fifty prominent families of the Lian-
Tong district, apprehensive of violent ill
treatment and having no confidence in the
Chinese authorities, have applied for per-
mission to migrate to Japan.
The Japanese authorities are preparing
to receive with due ceremony the Italian
prince, who is expected in the man-of—war
Cristoforo Colombo. A list of the total
casualties in the Japanese armies during
the war has been officially published. Six
hundred and twenty-three were. killed in
battle, 172 died of wounds, 2,281 were
wounded, but not fatally, and 2,489 died
of cholera and 2,981 of other diseases.
Count Matsu attempted at the beginning
of J 11110 to resume his duties at the foreign
office, but was compelled to abandon the
effort and take a health vacation of one
month. Marquis Sainjai,.ministcr of edu-
cation, temporarily replaces him.
A Young Firebug Lynched.
NEW ORLEANS, J 11110 25,—Grctna, a
small town just across the river, was the
scene of a mysterious lynching. The vic-
tim was John Frye, a young man 22 years
old. His dead body was found dangling
to a telegraph pole at the outskirts of the
town today. Frye belonged to a gang of
young men who made it a business of set-
ting fire to and burning down property in
Gretna. * '
A Disappointed Child’s Suicide.
PHILADELPHIA, J 11110 25.—Disappointed
because her sister had not bought her a
shirt waist, 14-year-old Katie McCoy com-
mitted suicide by hanging. Katie was
much chagrincd when she learned of her
disappointment, and she uietly crept up
stairs, and attaching 3. cl ‘eslino to her
neck hung herself.
