Queens private secretary, called upon the Mar
quis of Salisbury at noon to-day 1t is supposed
that he was the bearer of another message from
the Queen. During the conference of the Con-
seryative leaders, which followed this visit the
secretary called again, this time in the royal
carriage and had a second talk with the Marquis
of Salisbury The endeavors of her Majesty to
bring about an understanding between the Lib
eral and Conservative leaders, that the former
may continue 10 office or the latter take Office
and carry on the government, are unceasing.
AS result of the Queens efforts, the Marquis
of Salisbury has resolved to accept Mr.. Glad
stones promise to use his influence with the
Liberals to prevent factious opposition.
Mr. Gladstone has made a promise to Lord
Salisbury to give the new government as much
time as possible during the remainder of the
session. The correspondence between the party
leaders will probably be presented to Parliament
tomorrow 1t is stated that the leaders have
arranged to make an effort to carry the Welsh
intermediate education bill, the Australian con-
federation bill, and the Minister for Scotland
bill. Lord Salisbury declined to support the
Scotch crofters bill. Parliament will meet on
Wednesday to obtain the royal assent and then
adjourn for the elections.

The minor Offices have not yet been filed.
The Daily News, in an editorial, says that no
specific pledges have been given; that general
promise has been offered that the giants
strength of the opposition shall not be uses xe
a giant.
The Times, in an editorial, says it thinks Lord
Salisburys failure to obtain the desired pledges
from the Liberals weakens his position. 1t
adds, however, that the Liberals though per-
fectly able to do so at any time, have nothing
but trouble to gain thereby. and will probably
not attempt to defeat the government.
The Standard lin an editorial says that the po-
litical deadlock has been settled by concessions
on both sides. Reviewing the qualities OF the
new ministers, it admits that the front row Of
the Conservative bench in the House of Com
mons will be unequally matched with the glad
iators in debate on the opposite side.
The Cologne Gazette, in an inspired article
says: Germany has always been friendly to
England The change in the English Ministry
will not jeopardze the peace of Europe or
change the relations between England and Ger

Sir Charles Dixie, addressing a meeting of
Liberals last night, said he was prepared to give
the Conservatives reasonable assurances. He
wished to study in Ireland a plan for the de-
volvement from Parliament to Wclch, Scotch
and Irish bodies, much of the business that Par
lament is now not competent TO discharge He
would visit Ireland as soon as possible for that
purpose. He believed that many Irish officials
were IN IaVor OF decentralization, ana many
agreed that IL was necessary to abolish Dublin
Castle. He thought that Lord Salisburys re-
cent attitude savored of bluff and brag, and was
not likely to induce the Liberals to enter into
formal compact.
Tho Times, in an editorial says: "Mr.
Chamberlain and Sir Charles Dixie may dis
cover that there are institutions in Ireland, such
as the poorlaw guardians and municipal coun-
ellis, administering public money largely, that
are only prevented from abusing their powers by
