ENGLANDs POSITION
IN MONETARY
CONFERENCE.
London. March 23.-Mr Gladstones re'u'" ~
London has been FASTENED by the deadlock IN the
Cabinet over the question OF the succession IT,
the Speakership and the still more serious an
ference in regard to the dissolution OF Para-
n,ent upon which question there seems TO be no
feeling Of unanmty. 1t is certain that the ad-
vice of the ex-Premier will guide the Ministers
in deciding both questions. and until the leaders
have had the benefit Of consultation with INN
nothing will be done At the Cabinet Council
which was convened week ago last Tuesday IL
seemed improbable that there would be disSou-
ton until the Ministerial programme fixed at the
beginning of the session had been carried out
The Executive Committee Of the Liberal party
had told the election agents that there woud
be no general election until November the
change in the situation is due to Lord Rose
bery's increasing desire 10 withdraw from ''e
Premiership and there Is general reaIl|a''""
now that something must be done To MAKE
change in the existing state OF ahairs. Inc
sauabbes over the Speakership and the threat
ened assertions from the Ministerial ranks on
the question Of local veto have also had their
effect upon Lord Rosebery. and the other MIN
listers are becoming Disguised over the tension
caused by their working with a small and I'M

come a minority

VOYAGE as the only thing which would perna-

The Queen has been informed Of Lord Rose
bery's condition and desire to retire from Once
and has declared herself most unwilling to accept
his resignation She has expressed hope that MS
colleagues will allow time for the Premier to re
cover from his ailments before taking action which
would embarrass him and this course may b"
pursued However. there is a clique OF Ministers
among whom Sir william Harcourt is the most
prominent. who think that the easiest way ont ~
a seemingly impossible road is an early dissolu
ton.
The choice OF the Liberals for the succession o.
the Speakership now lies between the RI Hon
Leonard Courtney and William Court Gully and
the latter Will probably be the Ministerial n'mi-
