and Decide Against Precipitate
Action.
lBN the ASSOCIATED res. }

London. Nov. 24.-At today's meet
ing of the cabinet, which was at
tended by all the members it is un-
derstood that the proposal for the col
lective resignation of the cabinet was
rejected and that the ministers ar
rived at the decision that it would be
better to dissolve parliament them
selves and appeal to the electorate.
1t & is officially inumated that no
statement regarding the decision of
the cabinet will be issued by the min
listers, but the fact that Mr.. Balfour
leaves London tonight until Monday
and the additional fact that he is not
going to Sandringham to see the King
is taken as confirmation of the un-
derstanding that the premier and his
colleagues have decided against pre-
cipitate resignation.
All doubt as to whether or not the
Marquis of Londonderry had consent
ed to remain in the cabinet was dis
PEELED by statement from the minis
ter himself to the effect that he had
not resigned.
