WHAT THE LONDON NEWSPAPERS SAY.

LONDON, June 9.-The Daily Telegraph says
1t is doubtful whether the Conservatives will accept
office.
The Ners ir an editorial says Is impossible to fore
cast the con sequences the vote Tho Ministry Will
probably resign and the Opposition take possession OF
the government We do not suppose that even the Con-
servative leaders will seek undo what has been done
on the Afghan question. The whole policy Of the
country is thrown into momentary-we hope 1t may not
be lastng-confnsOn.
The Post says there is indication as to what the
policy OF the Conservatives will be.
The Stqndard in an editorial says: ave cannot be
ueye that the Ministers Will leave Office They have
ceved mortal stroke, but they must, whether they
like it or not agree to linger until the general
election Their very bunders render them Indispensable
Everything is unfinished and hangs In suspense. What
Cabinet can II the Conservatives 10 rule
they have majority for which they must look to
the constituencies. An election now is impossible The
Government cannot retrieve their loss, but mt
rate prove themselves conscious OF their duties to the
country by struggling manfuly in their painful position
Party life must remain In suspense until the election
The Times in an editorial says The resignation Of the
Cabinet I'm the present condition of affairs must not be
hastily decided upon II is the Governments duty to
consider whether such course wonld not be
grave wrong to the country. The financial nlodus
vsrendi might easily be arranged, abandoning

larger deficit carry forward to the next budget than
would have been the case If the whole OF the eleven
millions the vote credit had been spent instead of
