o.aisb Cabinet Changes Are So
Dubbed,
uruBERS ADD No STRENGTH
..rsuye Newspapers Are Fain 10
-, That the New Appointments
Are OnIy n Iiesbudiing.

London Aug S--lhe new eao'"e :
nbich involves the designations OF
@ 'a' Gorst vice president of the board
81 sducatlon; Lord Raglan parliament
secretary to the war Office and
i,,,o Ceilings, parliamentary secretary
me home office, tends to show that
n,Jsr Balfour Is experiencing con-
laorabie difficulty and probably OBJ
,rotlon as well, in the Encouragement
= mo ministry, which evidently is still
'.oomulete. There are stlll many an
',,oatsd designations and promotions.
,r,r ines are connected the names OF
y" Earl OF Halsbury, Lord George
hamilton, secretary of state for In
~. yiscount Cranborne, under secre-
o 1s, IA the foreign office, Gerald Bal
. eD,, uesident of the board of trade
aS shers who have not yet been am
ri M, changes the premier has succeed
b., h effecting excite no enthusiasm
rn his own party. The Daily News
S,s, 'Balfours Kaleidoscope" and
~ conservative newspapers are fain
4 "a confess that the cabinet changes
Nv rather a re-shulling than a
S,,sngthenlng of the ministry. No
,,1slng ability has been introduced in
"a he government among the new
| ssmes. The admission of George
| Wyndham. chief secretary for Ireland,
! /, the cabinet and the appointment of
1 lp,ten Chamberlain as postmaster
4 General are generally welcomed, but
s-sat disappointment is expressed on
N sides that the Marquis Of London
Ssry who is thought to have proved
4 failure as postmaster general should
y given the new and important post
n president of the board of education.
M disappearance Of Sir J. Gorst is
rAer regretted and is thought pro-
lazy to be due to his always outspoken
criticisms Of the government
Some among the new men are con-
,ldered to be promising but on the
vhole the changes are thought to be
nh rather than brilliant
Perhaps the most remarkable APP
rontment is that OF Andrew Bonar
Law as parliamentary secretary to the
hard Of trade Mr.. Law is an iron
merchant Of Glasgow and was born
\ Ia 1885, He is son of the Rev. James
law Of New Brunswick. He has only
at in parliament for two years
nd only spoken about twice since he
vas elected; but upon these occasions
| \ revealed great intellectual power
Helsa man of good business capacity.
ht being only a business man and
| Without powerful connections, his
| tholce for the office allotted him by
MsTory premier Is considered unusual
| not surprising II Is fully expected
bat further changes In the cabinet will
\ made during the autumn session of
Jsaament.
hresponse TO question put by John
| G Butcher Conservative member Of
he house Of commons regarding the
| ,idabillty Of appointing a member OF
hs royal family to be yiceroy of Ire
had, with permanent residence the0,
Premier BalfOur said that such a step
might possibly be advisable, but that
