minister and secretary of state for the for
eign department.; Sir Michael E. Hicks
Beach, chancellor of the exchequer; Lord
Randolph Churchill, secretary Of state
for India; Sir Richard AshetOn
Cross, secretary of state for the

son, lord chancellor of Ireland; Rt. Hon.
William 81. Smith will probably be secre-
tary of war; Col. Frederick Saleay, secre-
tary for the colonies; the Earl of Carnarvon,
or Viscount Cranbrook, lord lieutenant of
Ireland, and Sir Stafford NOrthcOte, lord
president of the council. Sir Harding
Clifford is to be lord high chancellor.
Mr.. Arthur J. Balfour, M. P. nephew of
of the Marquis of Sail sbury, has been ap-
pointed chief secretary for Ireland, MI.
Holmes, attorney general, and Mr.. Mon
roe, solicitor general.
PRESS OPINION.
The Times in an editorial says: The new
cabinet is compromise between rebuilding
the DisraeIi ministry and the infusion OF
new blood demanded by Lord Randolph
Churchill. 1t is not complete trimph for
Lord Churchill, although his prin-
cipal demands have been conceded.
There are misgivingS lest his
rashness and experience inf1ict injury in
India at a critical moment, but he must
work in harmony with Earl Dufferin and the
council OF India. Lord Randolph probably
insisted that the renewal of the coercion
act be abandoned. Referring to Mr..
Chamberlains's charge that $4,000 soldiers
are maintained in Ireland to support Brit
ish rule, the Times asks him if he will be
ready to acquiesce, if Ireland wishes to
separate when the restraining force is re-
moved, and warns him against trif1ing, for
party purposes, with the grayest imperial
interest.
REGARDLESS OF LIBERALS.
Lord Salisbury had two hours inter-
view with the queen yesterday, and i'm
mediately afterward returned to London.
It is stated that the Conservatives have and
decided to accept Office, regardless of OBJ
tanning Liberal support. They rely upon
the moderate Liberals to volunteer their
support, but the radicals will be
certain to hold off. Sir Stafford NorthcOte
acceptance of peerage is generally re-
gretted, as it will leave the Conservative
leadership in the house of commons too
much under the influence of Lord
Randolph Churchill. Sir Stafford
Northcote's title will be Lord Iddesleigh.
1t is believed that at their last meeting
the Liberal ministers decided to offer no
fractions opposition to the Conservatives,
except in regard to the budget, which Mr..
Gladstone will oppose directly, if unsatis-
factory.
UNDER CONDITIONS.
At the conference of Conservatives yes
terday it is said that Lord Randolph Church
i'll made it condition of his acceptance Of
office, that Sir Stafford NOrthcote should
not be made leader Of the Conservatives in
the house of commons. Sir Henry Drum
mond Wolf, member of parliament for
Portsmouth, will have position in the
cabinet. Another conference of Conserva-
tives was held at noon to-day at the resi-
dence of the Marquis of Salisbury. The
purpose of this conference was to endeavor
to settle upon the persons to fill the several
offices, so that complete cabinet may be
presented to parliament on Fri
day. Lord Randolph Churchill attended
the conference, which lasted an hour. 1t
is said that a result of the conference is that
all obstacles to the formation of cabinet
have been surmOunted. All who attended
the conference, however, pledged themselves
to secrecy. At the close of the conference
Lord Randolph Churchill remained in pri-
vate conference with the Marquis OF Sails
bury. The Conservative leaders will have
another meeting before a decision is finally
taken upon the constitution of the new cab
met.
WILL URGE GLADSTONE.
1t is reported that Attorney General
James will be elevated to peerage. 1t is
said the queen is determined, if possible, to
induce Mr.. Gladstone to accept a peerage,
and in the event Of his refusing it she will
confer one on Mrs. Gladstone. The Mar
uuis of Salisbury at o'clock this afternoon
departed for Windsor castle to present the
queen names of the ministers he has chosen
for the new cabinet.
INTIMIDATION.
The Pail Mall Gazette of this afternoon
has an editorial article believed to be in
spired by NJ Lessar of the Russian section
of the Afghan boundary commission, and
couched in angry terms. 1t says that un-
less the Marquis of Salisbury wishes to
deepen the conviction of Russia that his
ministry is menace of war, he will cancel
the appointment Ct Lord Randolph
Churchill as secretary of state for India.
Russia continues the article, already
regards the Salisbury cabinet with such sus-
picion that any sudden hitch may cause
such rupture of the negotiations now in
progress as will result in war"
