LONDON. August l2.-Mr. Gladstone
will 90 to Osborne House on Monday
with complete list Of the next Cabinet
to submit to the Queen, but In pursu-
ance of constitutional usage, he main
tains absolute silence on the proposed
appointments.
1t has been impossible to conceal the
arrangements made for Sir Wm. Vernon
Harcourt a. the exchequer, and for
Mr. John MorIe, as Irish Secretary,
but Mr.. Gladstone's iIs2ntiCns regard
ing other Ministers are rot known,
even TO some definitely appointed mem-
bers OF his Ministry. He has received
scores of aspirants for Office and has
discussed the composition Of the cabi-
net with his chief advisers without
definitely communicating TO any one
his final selections.
Being a punctiliOus observer OF OIL
cial precedent, ne will not formally offer
a place to any one until he has actually
received the Queens commands TO form
a Ministry. Surmises are rife regard
ing the new Ministerial combinations.
Among the most striking reports ind
ing credence in official legal quarters Is
one to the effect that Lord Herschell
will become Governor General OF India;
that Lord Chief Justice Coleridge will
become Lord Chancellor and that Sir
Charles Russell will become Lord JUS
tice. Lord Herschel's transference
from the bench to the tremendous pollt-
ical responsibilities Of the Viceroyalty
OF Egypt would be incredible but for
the known fact that he has long desired
to be a prominent figure in the political
arena.
Until Tuesday, when Mr.. Gladstone
returns from Osborne House, the exact
composition Of the Cabinet will remain
unknown.
The Queen will have an unusually ex-
citing time during her conference with
Mr.. Gladstone over the nominations.
The names Of the old group re-entering
the Cabinet she knows, but most OF the
new set she breads knowing. it Is
known in the court circle that it is fear
regarding the personnel OF the Glad
stone ministry that mainly induced the
Queen to consult the Duke of Devon
shire during his visit TO Osborne House,
Just concluded, as TO whether it was
possible for him to reunite with Mr..
Gladstone and sweeten the Liberal min
istry by taking Office himself.
Another source OF the Queens disqui-
etude is the change in the royal house
hold appointments inevitable on Mr..
Gladstones accession to power. While
the Liberal ranks include the old Whig
families, changes in the royal house
hold mattered little TO the Queen. One
Duchess succeeded another as Mistress
of the Robes, and Ladies Of the Bed
chamber could easily be recruited from
the Whig aristocracy. But now Mr..
Gladstone has small choice and will find
it exceedingly difficult TO get perSonages
agreeable to the Queen TO fill the great
court Offices.
The House Of Commons will resume
business on Thursday next mainly to
issue writs for reelection OF Ministers.
Neither Mr.. Gladstone, nor his leading
colleagues will appear in the House on
Thursday. The necessary official an
nouncement will be made in their be-
half by the senior member OF the new
government who IS not required to be
reelected. The propagation OF Parlla-
ment is expected TO take place on Au.
gust %.
Arrangements for the meeting OF the
International Monetary Conference are
progressing. The selection OF Dresden
finds approval among the English dele
gates. In regard 10 the personnel OF the
English representatives, the Associated
Press correspondent to-day heard the
opinion OF prominent currency expert.
Mr.. Currie, according 20 this authority
is the strongest man appointed. He
has no tendency whatever toward BIZ
metallsm. On the contrary, he is sound
for a single standard.
Mr.. Currle is q man Of great financial
ability generally, and is leading men,
Der of the banking firm OF Glynn, Mills,
Currie Il Co., being a member OF the
Council OF India. He initiated the Bar
ing Bros. settlement with the Bank OF
England, and is otherwise known
among franciers as man OF frst-rate
capacity. But his appointment has
special significance for the American
government as meaning that his in0u-
ence will overrule any inclination Of his
co-delegates towards an arrangement
satisfying America. the members Of
the conference will have a pleasant
time in Dresden, but will effect little.
Paultney Bigelow, is about to start
for America to take the stump for
Mr.. Cleveland. Regarding his expul-
sion from Russia, he writes that it is
two months since the American Lega-
tion in St. Petersburg formally request
ed the Russian government to permit
two American citizens (Messrs. BigelOw
and Remington TO make canoe voy-
age along the coast OF Russia, but that
the Russian foreign Office had not
deisned TO make an answer.
