of Salisbury, everybody begins to
see, lacks Self-confdence. He has been
bold, but never far-sighted as leader Of
the opposition, but the very moment the,
Gladstone ministry resigned the Marquis Of
Salisbury became a Suppliant for
public help, and vowed he would
not take power unless the Liberals
gave his government a show" from any
body. The queen could not conceal her
satisfaction over the change in politics. She
never liked Mr.. Gladstone. He was too
superior to etiquette could not fatter'
and was impotent as a state servant
to the throne. Her majesty was SO
pleased over the prospect of again having %
Tory and an aristocrat at the head of affairs
that she telegraphed her acceptance of Mr..
GladStOne's resignation, and by wire sum-
moned the Marquis of Salisbury to Bal
moral to accept the trust OF forming new
government. 1t is understood that the Mar
quis Of Salisbury will refrain from entering
upon the work of
FORMING A NEW CABINET
until after he has held conferences with all
the Conservative leaders. Singular as it
may appear to foreigners, the chief politi-
cal interest of Britons just now does not
seem to- be in the construction of the new
ministry but principally in the foreign
policy and secondly in the Irish policy
! OF the Conservative government. Mr.. Par
nell certainly must have the measure of his
ambition nearly filled when he has sue
ceeded in making the affairs of Ireland the
most Important subject of British Interests
after English foreign affairs When
| the Irish members, on Monday
night, threw their votes with
the Tories and wrought the ruin of the
ministry that gave Ireland disestablishment
and the land act, they jumped upon their
seats and hurrahed. They were then GER
tain that the Tories, lifted into power by
Irish help, would at once ''Parnellize" the
government. But the Tories have recov-,
cred from their first excitement and appear
to attribute Gladstone'S defeat, not to his
HARsHNEss TOWARD IRELAND,
but to the loss of the Liberal votes, driven
from him by disgust at his submission to
Irish bulldoZing. Now this disguised
Liberal vote is larger than the home rule
vote. The Tories know this. They are
wise in their day and generation. They
Irish are 'gong to get left The
Conservative party is largely controlled by
the prevalent opinion Of the Tory clubs.
The Cartoon and other leading Tory clubs
all favor the theory advocated by Earl
Spencer, the Irish viceroy, that there is an
absolute necessity for continuance of the
coercion policy in Ireland. On this point
the Tories and majority Of the Liberals
will agree, and on it they may combine
against the Radicals and ParnelliteS. Ii
they do, the home rulers will be in such a
pitiable minority that their voice will count
for nothing in parliament and a long lease
of life will be secured to the present mode
of English rule in Ireland. It is not be-

ministers in forming his
POLICY TOWARDS IRELAND.
His plan will be to split the Liberal party
completely by proposing measure of CO.
ercion based GU the report of Earl Spencer
"a measure the same as that of the Mar
quis of Hartington-Mr. Gladstones war
| minister and majority of Mr.. Gladstone's
| cabinet insisted on continuing, in spite of
| the opposition of Sir Charles Dixie,
Mr. Joseph Chamberlain and Mr.. Trevel-
| yam. Such line of Irish policy would be
| almost certain to lead at least to tempo
rary coalition between the moderate Liber-
| ais and the Tories against the Radicals and
| Parnellites, and give the new government
tremendous majority. 1t would be hard
| to guess what would become of
Irish home rule under government whose
very SldFU Ill power Was UdStu Ol It's uelOI-
minatiOn to maintain coercion in Ireland.
Sir Stafford Northcote, the Tory leader in
the commons has already been in consul
tation with Irish detective officials concern
ing the real status of affairs in Ireland, and
it is understood that nearly every one of
these gentlemen has stated that no English
government could
AFFORD To BE RESPONSIBLE
for the government of Ireland during the
winter, without the continuance of the
Irish crimes act. Mr.. Stafford can easily
acquire testimony that will bolster up his
intentions towards Ireland. Lord Randolph
Churchill, it may be safely stated, is the
only one of the men likely to form the
Conservative cabinet who is at all
likely to advocate the abandonment of
coercion. HIS influence will be far less
with his party, when it is in power, than it
appeared to be when he was an opposition
leader in the commons. kilograms from
Balmoral indicate that in the conferences
which have taken place between the queen
and the Marquis of Salisbury her maj
esty has shown that she is concerned
most about the foreign policy of her gov
eminent. In court circles there is no longer
any concealment of rejoicing over the fall
of the Liberal government. Mr.. Glad
stones court officials never were in harmony
with the queen or any subject, and her
majesty and the premier

circles it is thought that the queen was
strongly in favor of a renewal of the Sou

agreement, a renewal of the alliance
with Germany on entente with Turkey,
and no special cultivation on an entente

principles has all along been approved by
all the permanent officials in the British
