GBY CABLE TO TIE TRIBUNEl
London Aug 81 l a. m-Anybody might
have invented the rumors Of the impending
resignation Of Lord Salisbury which were
printed yesterday with the qualifying clause
that he would proba bly, remain in office until
the coronation. The retirement of the Prime
Minister is unlikely with the King absent
the Continent. and is not expected for a year
by anybody in touch with public life
There were we'll grounded reports six months
ago that he would withdraw from office at the
close of the session in August, but he was in
duced to remain in harness because 1T was diff
cult and inconyenient TO reorganize the Cabi-
net. His health has improved meanwhile. and
the conduct of the government is less burden
some than It was. Lord Lansdowne has done
we'll in the Foreign Office and Mr.. Balfour
manages the business Of the Commons. Lord
Salisbury is not overworked. and the members
OF his family in office are bent upon having him
remain as long as possible. It is. indeed. easier
for him 10 stay in than 20 get out after settling
the complex question OF succession, and il Is
more convenient for the King.
The only new feature of this twice told tale
is the eagerness Of a good many Tories 10 have
the succession decided while Mr.. Chamberlain
has his work cut out for him in South Africa
These trnorous politicians afraid that MI
Balfour may accept peerage and leave TO Mr
Chamberlain a free lead I'm the House of Com
mons. Consequently, they are persuaded that
Lord Salisbury If he resigns at all, might as
well do IT quickly, that Sir Michael Hicks
Beach can lead the House and Mr.. chamberlain
be left to whip thistles in the Colonial ONCE
veteran in the Civil Service assures me
that there is nothing in the rumors that Lord
Salisbury is going out.
