AMEETlNe OF THE MINISTRY CALLED
FOR FRIDAY.

The Object of the Meeting a Mystery
Gladstone VIII Probably Not Resign but
Introduce Another HoAne Rule Scheme.
The Pope'S Golden Wedding JubiIos."
LONDON, July 14.-It is expected that the
Ministry will meet in London on Friday
Meanwhile all efforts to ascertain their inten-
tions will be fruitless. Mr.. Gladstone pur-
sues his daily quiet routine, and is in good
health and spirits. Mr.. Marley is in Dublin
disposing of the accumulation of work at the
castle. Lord Rosebery, is kept busy in Lon
don, and the remainder Of the ministers are
scattered throughout the kingdom enjoying
the rural pleasures which the season so
abundantly affords. The fact that many Of
the Liberal newspapers are urging Mr.. Glad
stone not to resign at least until after parlia-
ment meets, is causing the Tories considerable
uneasiness, the most Ct them fearing some
sort Of a surprise and dreading the possibility
of the premier's springing upon the house a
Home Rule resolution so worded that the
greater part of the ministers will be COM
PEELED to support it.
To ward off this danger they are promising
to introduce a Home Rule bill in 1887, but
like many other of their recent promises, this
| assurance is received cum grano sails. 1t is
believed, however, in spite of the assertions
| of Mr.. T. p O'Connor to the contrary, that
Mr.. Parnell would consent to be governed by
/ Mr.. Gladstone's wishes, should the premier
wish to remain in office, but the weight Of
well-informed opinion favors the immediate
resignation of the ministry

who was Miss Cora Uquhardt, Of New Or
leans, is well known in New York sOcie-
ty and moves in the same circle as Mrs.
William Aston, Mrs. Cornelius Wander
bIlt and others equally prominent. She
is considerable Of an elOcutiOrist and is
sought after to assist in amateur enter
tainments. She is very handsome and
attractive and at one time had an inclina-
ton for the stage. Her reading OF the pO-
EN- in question was advised by two prom
inent cabinet ladies' and there is nothing
in it that should shock ladies who attend
operas and receptions with bare busts
and backs. Yet those who affect the
slow and behOld' style of dress were
among the severest critics.
Another lady of prominence, Mrs.
Speaker Carlisle, is a Kentuckian by
birth, and grOoped with all the other la
dies of society here, for marked grace,
royal bearing and wOmanly dignity, per-
haps is unequalled. She would be select
ed as the star Of the first magnitude in the
group. She has beautiful but mild black
eyes, regular and handsome features, hair
very heavy, of "A dark chestnut color,
worn in low Grecian coil back, with short
waves in front. Her manner and CONVEX
sation are as fascinating as polished, her
movement and carriage are as graceful
and stately as a swans. With all those
charms it is natural that her weekly re-
ceptiOns and informal entertainments in
their parlors at the Riggs have been so
popular during this as every other sea-

The ladies of toe foreign legations lOca-

society. One Of the handsOmest ia Nine.

She was born in Stockholm, sweden, and

Secretary of Legation, and they remained
there until ne received the appointment
as Minister to Washington last year. The
Swedish Minister has taken a residence
in the exclusive west end Of the Capital,
and their dinners are feasts 10 which in

her look shorter. She carries her pretty

face. Her complexion is a warm olive,

ripe lips curve over faultless teeth. Her

wanted to look at your face, and now
guess I'm well paid tor all the scr0ug-
ing that it took to get TO you" Miss
cleveland received her as kindly as if the
wife OF the first Senator in the land;
asked her where she lived, about her
family, her enjoy ment while in the city,
all about her home affairs, and finally as
she let her pass on asked her TO sit in the
Blue Parlor and rest until the reception
was over when she would be glad to talk
more with her, which she did.
Mrs. Whitney, wife OF the Secretary OF
the Navy, has been the handsOmest en-
tertainer in Washington this winter and
has occupied very prominent place in
society. Secretary and Mrs. Whitney
came to Washington with very hosplta-
BILE intentions. 1t was known there would
be rather scarcity OF official entertain
ments. Two members OF the Cabinent,
Secretary Lamar and Attorney General
Garland, were quite out OF the question
as party-giVeTs, both being widowers and
otherwise disinclined TO society. Neither
Secretary Bayard nor Endieott. nor
Manning, nor Postmaster General Villas
are p0sseSsors Of large means, so that it
tell naturally TO Secretary WhItney's
lot, as the pOssessor OF much money and a
gay and accomplished WIFE, to do the
party-giYing. 1t is said that Mrs. Whit
ney has fund OF $500, 900 to draw upon
Tor her entertainments, deposited to
her credit by her brother, Oliver Ii. Payne.
the ball was started rolling at the rate Of
three entertainments a week, which are
estimated to cost altogether about $4,000
month. But the temptation to abuse
this generous hospitality was too great.
Once week, on Wednesday afternoons,
the doors Of the Whitney's house are open
TO the world-apd the world flocks in.
People come from every part Of Washing
ton, including all the shopkeepers on Sew
enth street. 1t is estimated that on re-
cent occasion there were l.400 callers.
People who thought, or protessed to think,
the evening reception was public, or who
wanted TO make believe they had been in
vited, or who bad no other chance OF see
ing the inside of great house, went in
gangs. Some of them, without taking the
trouble 10 speak to the Secretary or his
wife, made Decline for the dining-rOom
where terrapin steamed and champagne
fixed. The dancing men iuaugurated
impromptu balls aud the Secretary aud
Mrs. Whitney stood by to see it. The
house is immense, and yet the crush was
dreadful. The Secretary and Mrs. Whit
ney take this state of affairs with perfect
dignity and amiability; it is TOO late to
remedy for this season, but another year
there will be another system. Everybody

innocent little lady, Mrs. James Brown

Ing all visiting TO the hours from to 8
u. are not generally known to people
somng here and they are often annoyed
when starting out calling at noon to lind
every house closed to them.
The mistress OF the White House is re-
garded the leader OF official society. Miss
Cleveland, the Presidents sister, IS, prob
ably, the most intellectual and cultured
lady who ever presided az the Executive
Mansion. Gifted with kindness Of heart
almost rare, even in woman, and as gen.
erous and catholic nature as can be
human, she possesses thorough classi-
cal education, cons siderable literary taste,
and is highly qualified to grace the posi-
tion she occupies.
1t is known that she does not Gil the
station from choice, or through any de-
sire for prominence, but for considera-
lions OF duty TO her brother; and while
she gives so much time to satisfy the de-
mands OF "the people," and lends her re-
dninR influence to every requirement as
mistress of the Presdenrs house, she
would prefer retirement and devotion TO
her literary labOrs. In person Miss
Cleveland is OF medium size. with atinely-
shaned intellectual head, expressive
gray eyee, light complexion and hair,
though not OF the pronounced blonde type,
She has delicate, shapely hands, and "A
mouth and cOuDtenance denoting charac-
ter aud kindly grace. She dresses on
an occasions in the most refined taste.
She has won the hearts oi tie people OF

is sometimes spent for a single entertain

than all the receptions in Washington

more than a sandwich and a cup of coffee
or glass of punch were offered at recep-

other day: $50 late as the Hayes ad-
ministratiAn, when senior MantlIla gave a
grand reception at WOrmley's in honor Of
the marriage of the King of Spain, cham
payne and terrapin were served, aud it
was considered princely extravaganza.
But now the finest and most expensive
wines are served as freely as claret punch
was ten years. ago, and terrapin Is as
common as chicken salad. The Letters
and the Whitneys and other wealthy peO-
pie who have recently come TO Washing
ton, have set fashion that has prevented
many people who would like TO entertain
from doing So" But all these are Incl
dents to general conclusion. In fact
times have changed, and If Jefferson were
President to-day he would not wear
snuty and untidy clothes at reception,
nor would jackson smoke eOrncob pipe
on the lawn in front of the White House,
but the choicest Havana cigars.
The way New Workers have ''taken up
Washington of late is quite striking.
With some of the large contingent from
Manhattan island now here an impression
seems to prevail that anything and every
thing is permissible in Washington, even
to attending the Presidents formal recep-
lions without invitations, put they are
being rapidly disabused of their errors.
None of them have tried the experiment
on President Cleveland that very fash
iOnable New York woman did on Presi-
dent Arthur, when she went to the White
House and refused to shake hands with
either him or Mrs. McElrOy, protesting
10 think that the White House was no
more than the Treasury building, and the

women, and has done most, perhaps, to
aid his political fortunes. A Talleyrand

Lady Washington in womanhood. she has
at times exercised all these gifts with

remained most of the time at their modest

in the army, taking care of the sick and
wounded, and actually expended the Gen
