ROTH SALISBURY AND GLAD
STONE CONSULT HER.

LONDON, June 19.-There was another
conference of Conservatives this morning
at the residence Of the Marquis of Sails
bury. As heretofore, all present were
pledged to secrecy The Marquis, In an
open letter, writes that "the imputation
that the Conservatives desire war with
Russia is ridiculous" The necessity for
such letter, some Conservatives say, is
due entirely to the recent secret confer
ence Of the leaders OF the party.
THE LIBERALS MONO ONiNIITTAI.
The Liberal leaders have not yet given
TO the Conservatives any pledge OF assist
ance in the conduct of the government.
The Privy council was not held to-day at
Windsor Castle for the formal transfer Of
the Ministry, hence the Liberals returned
TO their old benches when Parliament met
this afternoon. Great crowds of people
thrOnged the streets In the neighhorho0d
of Parliament House. The outpOuring
of people to-day was greater by far than
at any time since the beginning Of the
present crisis in public affairs. The po
lice had great difficulty in keeping the
entrances to the houses of Parliament
clear, that the members might have easy
access. There was an unusually full
attendance of members, the Liberals and
LABOUCHERE's QUERY.
Mr.. Labouchere asked if it was true
that the Marquis of Salisbury was pre-
vented from taking office by his failure to
obtain assurances of assistance from the
retiring government. Mr.. LabOuchere
added that he himself ard MANY other
Radicals strongly objected to any assur-
ance being gwen the Conservatives i'm the
/ event Of their taking Office.
Mr. Gladstone in reply said that when
he was last asked a similar question he
stated that he had not at that time bad
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 understanding
whatever. In that the Marquis of Sails
bury himself CONQUERED. The House then,
on motion Of Mr.. Gladstone, adjourned
until Tuesday next.
sALIsBURY's STATEMENT.
IN the House of Lords the Marquis of
Salisbury rose amid cheers and asked
Lord Granville to consent to an adjourn
ment of the House until Tuesday next
He said that conferences of the Liberals
and Conservatives had not yet reached
stage tOenable either side to make state
ment. Therefore, it would be more
convenient for all to postpone any dis
cussiOn until Tuesday next, as he had
suggested. He wished, however, TO make
Just one observation. IL was in respect
20 very important order on the paper. He
was aware of the importance of pushing
the redistribution Of seats bill to con-
clusiOn, but "a very serious question mad
unfortunately arisen in connection with
the measure.
EVILS or THE BILL.
1t bad become known that the redistri-
| button of seats bill had destroyed one set
Of constituencies. The Marquis of Sails
bury further objected TO the redistribu-
ton Of seats bill because, when passed in
It's present form, 1t would prevent, even in
a case of necessity, an appeal TO the
country before November. The motion TO
adjourn until Tuesday next was then
adopted by "A vote Of 12l ayes to IS nays.
Earl Kimberly, who was Secretary OF
State for India in Mr.. GladstOne's Min
istry, voted against adjournment.
QUEEN VICTORIA ARBITRATING.
The negotiations between the Liberals
and Conservatives are proceeding through
the medium OF the Queen. The Marquis
Of Salisbury urges that II the redistribu-
ton Of seats bill is finally passed the
| Conservatives will be deprived OF the con-
(
country should the Liberals unfairly ham.
per the conduct of public business.
Therefore, the Marquis Of Salisbury I'M
expectedly, after taking the best legal
! advice on the subject, decided not TO al
/ low the seats bill 10 pass into a law until
further consideration has been
bad. 1t is impossible for the new
bill 70 come into operation before Novem-
| Der, and hence Lord Salisbury insists
upon having Liberal pledges not 20 will
| fully Obstruct the conservative leaders.
