RUMOR REVIVED
Ut Approaching Resignation Of
Salisbury as Premier.
Careful Inquiry Finds Nothing to Sub
stantiate the Report.
Will Probably Remain in Office as Long as
Health Permits.

London, Aug. 3O.-The Pail Mall
Gazette under the heading The prime
minister's impending resignation"
fixes Lord Salisbury's retirement as
probably after the coronation of King
Edward, though some persons place it
in the autumn or early winter. Sup
porting the news editOrially, the Pail
Mall Gazette says:
THE facts square with out own
knowledge to the extent that the
Cnionist party should prepare for a
new premiership
Chiefly owing to the lack of all in
teresting news, the Pail Mall GaZette's
announcement of the approaching re-
tirement of Lord Salisbury attracted
considerable attention. The credence
attached to it was due more to the
Pail Mall Gazette's previous feat in
foretelling the retirement of the late
Mr.. Gladstone than by the inherent
probability of today's article.
After careful inquiry. a representa-
tive of The Associated Press found
there was nothing TO justify the
prophecy. An official who has been
more closely associated with Lord
Salisbury than any one else for over
80 years said
Il have not heard single word from
Lord Salisbury or his friends to justify
this latest resurrection of the retire
ment rumor. 1t is true Lord Salisbury
| is getting very old. but he is now re-
lieved of the bulk of the duh foreign
affairs which were formerly so trying
II do not think he is very eager to
retire; but what is more to the point,
| feel certain the party would not al
low ii unless age made greater in
roads on his health than it has at pres
ent. | think You will see Lord Sails
bury premier so long as his health
lasts. and a Cnionist government is in
power.
PERSONALLY he has no pursuits to
which he desires to devote more leis-
ure. Indeed, I believe he would feel
quite lost without a certain amount of
craftsmanship to occupy his energy"

Work on the piece of permanent road
on Brunswick avenue above the resi-
dence of A. S. Ring is progressing
rapidly. This is under the super
vision of George Cunningham the
labor being done by the day. Where
the work is now being done the road
has always been very bad in the spring
as it is mostly made road. over this,
there has been a deep layer of heavy
rocks from the nearby stone walls
used. the sides being dug out and
filled in with rocks as we'll. this allow
ing of good drainage. Across the
road. there have been several cutters
laid. The bottom layer Of rocks has
been filled in with smaller ones and
this is now being covered with thick
coating of gravel. Below the place
where the present work is being done.
there will be a similar piece of road
built but it will not require as much
rock and will be less expensive. 1t is
thought that the sum of $1,000 which
was appropriated. will be sufficient TO
make piece from the foot of the
Iron Mine hill to opposite the resi-
dence of Mr.. Ring. 1t is expected that
the work will continue for three weeks
more.
