Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1885-06-20


As heretofore, all present were pledged to
secrecy. The Marquis of Salisbury in an
open letter writes that the imputation that
the Conservatives desired war with Russia
is ridiculous. The necessity for such let
ter, some Conservatives say, Is due entirely
to the recent secret conference OF the lead
ers of the party.
NO FORMAL TRANSFER OF THE MINISTRY.
LONDON, June 19th.-Liberall leaders have
not VET given the Conservatives any pledge
of assistance in the conduct of the Govern
ment. A privy council was not held to-
dav at Windsor Castle for the formal trans
fer of the Ministry, hence the Liberals will
retain the old benches when Parliament
meets this afternoon.
oUTPoURING OF THE PEOPLE.
LONDON, June 19th-Great crowds of
neople throng all the streets in the neigh
borhood of the Parliament House. The
outpouring Of the people to-day is greater
nv far than at any time since the begin
ming of the present crisis in public affairs.
The police have great difficulty in keeping
the entrance to the House of Parliament
clear.
AN ASSURANCE OF PARTIAL SUPPORT
LONDON, June 19th.-It is stated that at
meeting of the Liberal leaders, 1t was de-
cided to give the Conservatives an assur-
ance of partial support. This is not enough
to satisfy the Marquis of Salisbury, and 1t
is not likely that he will announce his
Cabinet to- day, in which case Parliament
will adjourn till Monday. The Conserva-
tives believe that the difficulty of reform
ing the Liberal Cabinet will compel the
Liberals to give pledges.
NoRTHCoTE ACCEPTS AN EARLDOM.
LONDON, June 19th.-The Queen has sent
Sir Stafford Northcote an autograph letter
thanking him for his high services, and Of
fering him an earldOm. He will assume
the title of Earl of Iddesleigh and Viscount
st. Cyres.
LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL ovATED.'
LONDON, June 19th.-Lord Randolph
Churchill received an ovation to-day from
a crowd assembled at the Windsor depot,
where he took the train for Ascot Heath.
NO SECRET UNDERSTANDING FOR GLADSTONE.
LONDON, June 19th.-In the House of
Commons, this afternoon, Labouchere
asked if it was true that the Marquis Of
Salisbury was prevented from taking office
by the failure TO obtain assurance OF assist
ance from the retiring Government. La
bouchere added that he himself, and many
other Radicals, strongly objected TO any as
surance being given the Conservatives in
the event of their taking office.
Gladstone, in reply to the question of
Labouchere, said that when he was last
asked a similar question he stated that he
had not at that time had any conference
with the Marquis of Salisbury. Since then,
however he had received overtures from
the Marquis of Salisbury. Should there be
any result of any correspondence between
the Marquis and himself, it would be made
public. There would be no secret under
Standing whatever in what the Marquis of
Salisbury and himself concurred.
The House then, upon motion of Glad
stone, adjourned until Tuesday.
SALISBURY AND THE LIBERALS.
LONDON, June 19th.-The negotiations
between the Liberals and the Conservatives
are proceeding through the medium of the
Queen. Salisbury urges, if the redisribu-
tion-of-seats bill is finally PASSED, that the
Conservatives will be deprived of the con-
stitutional alternative of appealing to the
country should the Liberals unfairly ham,
per the conduct of the public business.
Therefore Salisbury Unexpectedly, after
taking the best legal advice on the subject,
decided not 10 allow the seats bill to pass
into law until further consideration has
been had. 1t is impossible for the new bill
to come into operation before November,
hence Lord Salisbury insists upon having
Liberal pledges not to willfully obstruct the
Conservative leaders. The Conservatives
are alarmed at the tone Of Chamberlin's
recent speeches, which denote an intention
on his part to harass the Conservatives to
his utmost. The Conservatives insist that
the Liberals Will yet be compelled to ac-
sept Lord Salisbury's terms.
THE THREAT OF THE CONSERVATIVES.
LONDON. June 19th.-Under the threat of
the Conservatives that they will appeal to
the present constituencies, it is expected
that Mr. Gladstone viii succeed in per-
suading the Radical section to agree to
allow the budget deficit to be carried next
year, though the Liberals would gladly
avoid giving the pledge in order to in
duce the Conservatives TO propose unpleas-
ant taxation that would prove disadvanta-
geous to them at the general election.
sAIIsBUBY's PROPOSITION DECLINED
LONDON, June Goth M.-Lord Sails
bury asked pledge of the Liberals that
they would fairly consider the budget
scheme, and. if they disapproved it, would
consent to let the deficit be carried into
1886, and to allow the Conservatives the
whole time of the House of Commons dur
ing the remainder of the session. Mr..
Gladstone declined to give the pledge re-
garding an unseen scheme of finances.
The Meas SAYS ii is able to state that Glad
stones reply is final, and there is no chance
OF the matter being arranged by further
Liberal concessions. The Conservatives
are signing memorial to Lord Salisbury,
asking him to release the office unless a
pledge be obtained from the Liberals.
SUPPLIES To BE STOPPED.
LONDON. June 20th-A. Mn conse-
quence of the political deadlock, Earl
Spencer has postponed his departure from
Ireland The Liberals have resolved to
stop supplies until the redistribuion-of-
seats bin is completed. They will probably
oppose the making of the First Lordship
of the Treasury q sinccure when the vote Is
asked for the salary of 5000 attached to
that position. 1t is understood that Sir
Stafford Northcote has accepted the peer
age, regardless of any action that may be
taken.
THE STANDARD" ON THE SITUATION.
LONDON, June 20th-A. M.-The Standard
believes that Mr. Gladstone is willing to
resume Office if the Marquis of Salisbury
declines. In that event, il says, the Coer-
cion Act will be dropped. and Earl Spencer
and the Marquis of Harrington will not en-
ter the Cabinet. The Liberals are signing
q memorial to Mr.. Gladstone, asking him
not to give way. The Standard declines
to believe that the refusal OF q Liberal
pledge will not be an impeachment and
hopes Lord Salisbury will not despair
of his task, but trust TO the patriotism of
the Moderate Liberals for sympathy and
support.
