CONSERVATIVES IN DUMPS

LONDON, July 22.-The alarm which
vas felt by members of the ministerial
party. owing to the defeat of the gov

night. and the intimation that Premier
Balfour would follow the usual custom
and resign. has subsfded to some ex-

Conservatives stiil take a passimistic
view of the outlook for the futurs.
At End of Rope.
While no one outside the cabinet

gard TO resigninE at the meeting Of the
minister's yesterday, conservatives
realize that whether or not Premier
Ralrour resigns the usefulness of the
present government IS practically at an
end
In case the ministers do retain their
portfolios the chief reason for their ac-

There is little doubt but that the
