LORD SALISBURY Is said to be so
snlky over the Sxek xille affair that he
will not acssedit another Minister to
this country until the end of President
Clevsland's term. This is folly. Sack
vllle's act did not yaise personal issue
1t all. 1t concerns the two nations
and not the President and the British
Prime Minister. Salisbury seems to
think that another President wouii
