RADICALS NOT IN IT.
Gladstone's Cabinet Made Up of
His Old Supporters.
ULTRA REFoRMERs VERY SORE.
They Predict Early Downfall Of tho Gov
ernment-Concession Likely to Be
Made to the New Forces.

LONDON, Aug. 16.-The new government
is composed as follows:
Gladstone, lord of the privy seal and first lord
OF the treasury; Earl ROsebery, foreign secre-
tary; Baron Herschell, lord chsncel-
lor; Sir William Vernon Harcourt, chan
cellor OF the exchequer: Herbert II.
Asquith, home secretary; Rt Hon.
Henry H. Flower, president Of the local govern
ment board; Rt. Hon. Campbeli-Bannerman
secretary Tor war; Earl Spencer, first lord of the
admiralty: RI. Hon. John Morley, chief secre-
tary for Ireland; Rt. Hon. A. J. Mundelia,
president of the board of trade: Sir Charles
Russell, attorney general; John Rigby,
solicitor general; Ri. Hon. Samuel Walker,
lord chancellor OF Ireland; MscDermott, attor-
ney general for Ireland: Ri Hon. Edward p.
c. Marjoribanks, patronage secretary of the
general for Scotland; Rt. Hon. J. B.
Baifour. lord advocate for Scotland;
Earl Kimberly, secretary of state for India and
vice president of the council; Marquis OF R1pon.
secretary of state for the colonies; Sir George 0.
Trevelyan, secretary for Scotland: Arthur H.
Dyke AcIand, vice president Of the council of
education; Baron Houghton, viceroy OF Ireland,
without a seat in the cabinet.
The composition of the new government
has caused intense disappointment among
the radicals. Not single man, excepting
the radicals: has been appointed cabinet
minister, and among the ex-cabinet
posts few members of the new set have
any but the remotest chance of getting a
place. Representatives of old whig families
and Liberal mediocrities having aristo-
cratic connections, and never associated
with extreme views seem Gladstone's ex-
elusive choice. The official list, when
nj h. N r
Club, awoke vehement protest. Apart from
radical opinion, the cabinet is really COM
posed of eminently reputable men. Glad
stone preferred collecting around him
tried colleagues, accustomed to subordina-
ton, and certain not to deviate
into strange ways. Probably Glad
stone will try to strengthen his po-
sition by offering posts to Stuart,
the radical leader of the London county
council; Hunter, leader of the Scotch rad
lcals; Burt. Benn and others. Shaw La
fevre will likely get the ministry of agri-
culture. Nothing Gladstone can offer will
prevent the radical leaders, Immediately
upon the reassembling OF the commons,
showing resentment at exclusion from
office
Baron Houghton's appointment as vice
roy of Ireland amazed even Gladstone's
intimate friends, as Houghton is utterly
unknown in parliamentary circles. The
Radicals predict that the government can
not last three months after parliament re-
sumes business.
Gladstone left Osborne house this morn
ing and returned to London, after an in
terview with the queen.
When Gladstone returned to the city he
met the new members of the ministry in
conferences

pected. w. W. Clarke, who arrived from
the forks of the Skeena yesterday, said:
The Indians are becoming very excited over
smallpox rumors reaching them from Victoria.
Some hours alter the news arrived at Hazelton
the Indians sent a deputation to Field, the
Church of England minister for the district,
auestng him to let them have room in which
TO hold pow-wow. He told them their own
houses were better adapted for meetings of the
sort After some discussion they retired and
held a council In one of their rooms, and after a
very noisy debate decided to stop the steamer
from landing at Hazelton and not to allow any
more whites to come up the river. They say
measles were brought there last year in sugar
barrels belonging to the Hudson Bay Company,
and they will not allow any mail to be landed
there. as they dread the smallpox being
brought In letters. The Indians were
walking about the village armed to
the teeth with knives and pistols when
was at Hazelton, vowing vengeance on the
white man for bringing diseases into their tribe
which continually decreased their numbers.
1t is well known TO the authorities at Hazelton
that their Imagination must have been excited
by hslf-clerical gentleman living near the
mouth Of Bulky river. Things OF this kind have
been tracted to him more than once. None but

THE WEATHER AND CROPS.
Hops Look Well-ShOwers Beneficial
Grain Harvest In Progress.

OLYMPIA, Aug. 16.-[Special. I'm West
ern Washington the past week has been
cool and cloudy. Light rains, beginning
in many sections on the 9th, were general
over this entire portion of the state by the
18th, ending on the 14th. The effect of the
showers has been good on the whole.
While some grain already cut and in the
field has been injured, the damage has not
been great, and has been offset by the ben
eft to late grain. second hay crop, pota-
toes, etc. The blight continues to affect
potatoes and in few sections will there be q
full, or even fair crop. Hops are doing
we'll. The lice are held in check, and if
present prospects hold fair crop of good
quality will be secured. Reports are re-
ceiyed from many sections to the effect
that the harvest will begin in two weeks.
The aphis, green, black and woolly, is plen-
tiful nearly everywhere, but is easily de-
stroyed by spraying with soapsuds. In
Clarke county the wild fruit is attacked
by it.
In Western Washington the weather
continued warm up to the 10th, when it
cooled to the extent Of causing frost in
some portions of the northeast on the
morning of the 18th. Dry winds prevailed
on the Sth. 9.h and 10th, causing, however,
little damage. The weeks weather has
been generally very favorable. Light
showers fell over the eastern portion of this
part of the state during the 10th and 18th,
heaviest in the southeast. The cool
weather has improved the prospects for
late grains and for all other crops-pota-
toes, fruits. etc. The harvest of grain con-
tinues with in many cases better results
than were expected. In klickitat county
| reports are that the yield of wheat will be
fair average and of good quality, while
in Columbia one-half the average yield is
reported. While much of the grain is too
far along 20 be favorably affected by the
! cool weather, the general result is that it
Especially late wheaD is ripening more
slowly and thus more satisfactorily.
