AsQulTH Is READY
To Announce His Program at Opening
of Parliament Today.

I London, Feb. 20.-Preiniers Asquith
has filed the vacancies in the ministry,
which is an indication that he at least
expects the government to pass safely
through the crisis. The new ministers
are: -. .. ,l-
William Wedgwood Benn and Earn
est Joseph Seares, junior lords of the
treasury: Edwin Samuel Montagu, un-
der secretary for India, and Cecil Will
liam Norton, assistant postmaster gen.
eral Mr.. Norton succeeds Sir Henry
Norman, who failed of election.
This completes the ministry. In the
case of the junior lords reflections
will be necessary, but as both had good
ma jorities last month there Is little
danger of their losing their seats.
The Kings speech, it is believed.
beyond the usual references to foreign
affairs will be confined to the ques-
tions Of finance and the relations be-
tween the two houses. The supremacy
of the House of Commons In financia!
matters will be asserted firmly, but
the governments plan Tor limiting the
Lords power of veto viii not be dis
closed until the premier addresses the
House IN answer to the Kings speech.
Parliament will be formally opened
at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon by the
King. who will be accompanied by the
Queen, the Prince and Princess Of
Wales, and Prince and Princess Henry
of Prussia. The formalities will take
up an hour and as Premier Asquith
is expected to speak early in the de-
bate on the address in reply to the
speech from the throne, the members
will not have long to wait for the gov
e-nments announcement of its inten-
lions.
The announcement on Irish affairs.
with which the premier hopes to re-
tain the support of the Nationalists,
is awaited with the greatest curiosity

Edward VII Receives Snub
At AsQuith's Hands.
Invitation 10 Visit English
Sovereign Curily Declined.
King Is Very Wrbth and Society
Has Something 10 Discuss.

London, Feb. 20.-English society has
not had such a tidbit of gossip for
many a day as has been furnished by
the action Of Prime Minister Asquith
in declining the Kings invitation to
him last week
1t is customary for the Sovereign to
invite the leader of the victorious par
ty at general election TO spend few
days as his guest and it is no secret
that at these visits the political leader
is expected to make the King pretty
we'll acquainted with his plans.
Only illness or very urgent public
business is the excuse for declining.
such an invitation ana in this case,
neither excuse seems to have been avail
able. 1t is not so much the fact that
MIR. Asquith declined to obey the King,
command" however, as the way nc
did it that is causing all the trouble.
Mr.. Asquith simply wrote a short lit
tie rote such as he would write to a
friend of no particular Importance
saying that he was very sorry he
couldn't go to Windsor, as he was
leaving at once for the continent.
The King Is simply furious He de-
clared when he received the note that
no English Sovereign had been so
treated since the days of Cromwell and
he also said things about the lack Of
common courtesy in modern life.
People say that Mrs. Asquith, who is
very unpopular in society answers a
good deal of the premier's correspond
ence and she. it is well known. has a
brusque way Of dealing with the most
important people. =
"She thinks it smart to make little
of big people," said a man who is close
to the King, land perhaps she thought
she was doing clever thing in snub-
bling the King. She has done very
stupid thing, however, and one which
will do her husband a lot Of harm. for
his personal relations with the King
can never be the same again.
"Of course King Edward is too clev-
err a man TO let his actions in public
affairs be influenced by his personal
likes or dislikes but it is highly inn
portant that his ministers should be
men who are personally agreeable to
him."
