LONDON, Feb. G-Lord Salisbury and

hooted at Parliament while returning from
Osborne, whittier they had gone to deliver
their seats of office to the Queen Gladstone
is rusticating at Sentm0re, the seat of the
Earl of Rosenberg.
LONDON, Feb. THE Economist disap-
proves of entrusting the chancellorship of
the exchequer to Sir VIM. Harcourt, saying
that his appointment is a hazardous expert
ment at the present period of the tagging
revenue and growing expenses. The EcOno-
mist shows that Home Rule would involve
the addition of e2,000,000 to Irish taxation
and it asks the advocates of disruption of
the union if they are prepared to pay the
cost and how they would raise it.
LONDON, Feb. 7.-The following addition
al appointments have been made under the
new administration:
Chancellor of the Duchy of Unconstitutional
Heneage.
Lord chancellor of Ireland-John Naish.
Attorney General of Ireland-Samuel Walker.
Solicitor General of Ireland-Theo. MacDer-
mott
Secretary to the Admiralty-John I. HILBERT.
Under Foreign Secretary-James Brice.
Under Colonial Secretary-George Osborne
Morgan.
WORTH
Under Secretary for the Home Department
Henry Broadhurst.
The appointment of BroadhurSt as Under
political circles, that gentleman being the
first workingman that has ever risen to the
ministry. His appointment is taken as an
indication that it is Gladstone's intention to
rely upon the masses against the influences
of the aristocracy. The Liberal Club are
divided in opinion on the subject, the Re
form and DevonShire wing disappearing OF
the appointment and the National Liberal
enthusiastically approving. The hostility OF
the Wings to Gladstone is intense. This is
shown in the difficulty experienced by the
| Premier in filling peeress's posts in the
| Queens household. The Duchess of Bed
| ford and the Duchess of Westminster have
| refused the appointment, and Others Will
| follow their example.
| Mr. Redmond, Nationalist member of Par
| lament, in a speech at Monaghan today,
urged Irishmen to restrain their violent
feelings and not hamper the new govern
ment, which he said would take immediate
| steps to stop evictlons.

BRUSSELS, Feb. 6.-The BeIg ian court has
| been compelled to economiZe in various dl-
rections to compensate for King Leopold S

Capture of a Famous NihiIistic
Leader.
| ST.. PETERSBURG, Feb 6.-The capture
| has lust been announced of the famous Nj
| hilistic leader and arch conspirator, Serglus
Iyanoff, who for so long has baffied the, au-
| thorities. Government officials are 1ubllant,
and express much satisfaction over the man
ner in which the prisoner was run to earth.
The revival of the Nihilistic scare has Gre
ated much alarm here, but the arrest OF the
most prominent leader has in measure al
layed the popular uneaSiness.
The police have been unusually successful
Of late in securing conspirators, and although
all their methods are yelled under the strict
