LONDON, Oct 21.-A rumored serious
difference has arisen in the Cabinet over
the question of the release of dynamite
prisoners. A prominent Conservative
organ even declared that Home Secretary
Asquith has threatened to resign. 1t is an
open secret that there has been differ
! ence of opinion in the Ministry as to the
settlement of the question of permitting
meetings in Trafalgar Square, but the
matter was arranged by compromise.
According to reports from Radical CEN
tres, Sir William Harcourt has decided
that the next budget shall include propo-
sails providing for a free breakfast
table" by the abolition OF the duties on
tea and coffee and cocoa. The reduction
i'll the revenue will be met by increased
taxation on land. Such scheme would
give immense satisfaction to the working
classes.
The recent manifestations of mutiny,
coming one on top of the other i'll the
crack regiments, are creating a feeling of
CONSERVATION throughout the country,
and causing general Outcry for
thorough inquiry into the cause of what
appears to be widespread discomfort. The
Radical members of the House are dis
cussing the question, and when Parlia-
ment reopens the Secretary OF War will
be closely questioned on the subject, the
result of which will probably be an
official inquiry. Great Indignation is
expressed in regard TO the dismissal Of
non-coi. - .oned officers The Life
Guards sther men declare their in
tention oI 1uyIng their discharge.
Little interest is shown in yaching
circles TaKarH n thfa
the American cup. The apathy is mainly
due 20 the fact that Lord Dunravenjs
challenge emanates from himself pri-
vately, without the sanction of any lead
ing yacht club.
Astronomical circles here continue 10
be intensely interested in Professor Bar
nard's discovery of the fifth satellite of
Jupiter. +. W. Maunder, in charge of
the Photographic and SpectroscOpic sec
ton of the Greenwich Observatory. said
he had no doubt the discovery was a gen
uine one, and he considered the discovery
OF the greatest interest. He thought 1t
scarcely likely the satellite was the re-
cent capture by Jupiter, basing his opin
ion on the fact that the satellite moves
almost precisely in the plane Of the
planets equator. 1t is readily conceiy-
able, he said, that the newly discovered
satellite was member of the system
from the first. He thought it highly inn
nave
| been discovered by smaller telescope
than that of the Lick Observatory, even
had definite search been made for it.
The portentious fact in connection with
the illness of the King of Spain is the re-
vival of activity in Carlist oenters in
London and Paris. Signs are not want
ing that preparations are being made bv
Carlists to strike blow ere long for pos
! session of the Spanish throne. They are
IN active communication with a network
of committees, with which the whole of
Spain is overrun. Don Carlos was greatly
effected by the loss OF life in the last war.
and he is determined that the Carlos
standard will not be again raised until
there is an absolute certainty of victory.
1t is announced that pleuro-pneumoni
has been discovered in a Canadian COW.
in addition to the case of the American
bullock already reported. All the ami
mails with which the injected COW had
come in contact were ordered DESTROYED.
A stricter inspection on all Canadian cat
tie has been ordered.
