LORD salisbury TO Resign Director
OF Foreign A6airs-Promotion fol

Lord salisbury TO Resign Direction
OF Foreign Afalrs-Promotlon for
Lansdownc. Il
London, Oct. q. Under pressure
from the highest quarter. Lord Sails
bury has decided to resign the direction
of foreign affairs. He Will remain in
the cabinet as prime minister and 1t is
hoped that in that single capacity he
Will be able to supervise more thor
oughly the Undertakings OF his coll
league in the colonial Office. whose self
assertiyeness Of late has produced
some concern in the region OF the
throne.
Furthermore. Lord Salisbury. re-
.lieyed from the weight Of foreign az
fairs. will have opportunity to give
greater attention to the work OF army
reform. His lordship desires very
much TO continue in his dual capacity
as prime minister and foreign secre-
tary, but 1t was pointed out to him In
strong terms that his increasing years
made 1t advisable for him to lay aside
part OF the burdens he has borne Of
late.
Unless some alterations have been
made since Lord Salisbury left London
for Balmoral Monday to confer with
the queen the public will be Immensely
startled by the announcement Of the
promotion Of the Marquis OF Lans-
downe 10 the foreign Office. AS minister
OF war he has received much coEdem-
nation, ana the demand has been made
that he be kept out OF the new minis
TRY. or at least be shelved in some un-
important Office. Nevertheless. when
Lord Salisbury left London on Monday
|the marquis Of Lansdowne was slated
for the highest Office In the cabinet next
to that or prime minister. His appoint
lment to that portfolio would take away

ernment's most ardent supporters. n
