THE UNEXPECTED HAPPENED.
The Elevation of the Marquis OF
L~ansdowne to the British Fer
eign Secretaryshfp.

London, Oct. 31.-The marquis of
Transformers elevation to the foreign
se~cretaryship, according to the an
nouncement in the newspapers, has,
hguaratively speaking. taken the
country's breath away. 1t was as
unexpected as it is unwelcome. Even
the staunchest ministerial mouth
piece among the afternoon newspa-
per openly condemn it.
The Globe declares the appointment
only shows that Lord Salisbury is
completely out of touch with the feel
ings and wishes of the electorate and
the conservative party. while the lib
eral Westminster Gazette, Growing
ever the discontinue of the minis
terial newspapers, which have been
so loudly demanding the retirement
of Lord Lansdowne, expresses relief
at the fact that Mr.. Joseph Chamber
lain was not given the post, saying:
"The latter's appointment would
have filled thoughtful people with dis
may, and it is something to have es-
capped this serious danger"
Lord Salisbury. apparently, ar
ranged matters with the queen at Bal
moral, a week ago His lordship's own
inclination was to resign the premier
ship and devote himself exclusively to
the foreign office. He wrote her maj
estv to this effect, but she declined to
accept the suggestion. Lord Sails
bury. therefore, went to BalmOral to
discuss the question, with the result
that the queen carried her point.
Public anxiety is, TO some extent,
relieved by the conviction that Lord
Salisbury's experience will stin be
available to direct the broad lines OF
policy of the prospective foreign min
lister.
