SALISBURY RESIGNED Action Takes British Empire By Surprise IN CONFEAENCE WITH KING ON FRIDAY AND TENDERED HIS RESIGNATION. Press Eulogises His Stern Charac- teristics--Hon. A. J. Balfour His Successor--Hon. Joseph Chamberlain to Remain in The Cabinet. London, July 14.--~The following communication was issued from Down ing street last evening : "On Friday last the marquis of Salisbury had an audience of the king and tendered his resignation, which was graciously ac cepted by his majesty. His majesty subsequently commumeated with Ar thur Balfour, who forthwith had an interview with Mr. Chamberlain. Mr Baliour, having * then consulted with RETIRING PREMIER SALISBURY, other members of the ministry, was received by the king on Saturday at Buckingham palace, and accepted the post of prime minister, vacated by Mord Salisbury." Lord Balisbury's quiet laying down of the premiership amid the present commotion, anxiety and rejoicings, comes this morning as a great aston ishment to England. So little did his countrymen know of the momentous proceedings of the last few days, that all the Sunday newspapers, describing Gen. Kitchener's audience with the king Saturday afternoon, said that he was the first visitor outside the roval family and the aoctors, whom the king had received, There was not a hint that the king had said farewell to his first prime minister and ap pointea his second. The position so far 'as lord Salis bury is concerned, will be explained hy him at a meoting of conservative lords and commoners at' the foreign office this afternoon. No doubt the reason he will give for his retirement will be-old age. He can INCOMING PREMIER BALFOUR. hardly be in weak health, for he was seen oue morning a week. ago tri evcling energetically in St. James' park with his deughter, Gwendoline. The newspapers, which are wnanim- ous in paying tributes to lord Salis bury's personal character, are divided a® to whether to expect new depar- tures in policy to follow the resigna- tion. Much depends on whether Mr. Baliour will go to the house of lords. H he accepts a peerage, it is certain that Mr. Chamberlain will become goveyninent leader in the house of commons, probably still retaining the colonial secretaryship. The Morning Post says that in the management of British external af fairs lord Salishury enjoved to an un usual extent the confidence of his countrymen and those who have re presented foicign nations. He, by uni- versal admission, was an intellectual gant among his 'col " He was the The the Mr. Chamberlain's chances for the pre miership were impossible. He is too much at' variance with the ideas of t conservative party to step into the office lord Ralisbury has vacated The Times says that Mr. Balfour en joys the confidence, regard gnd almost the affection of his political oppon ents, while the loyalty of his own par tv is immense. Mr. Chamberlain has very bigh claims on the premiership; more than any other man be has stood for the government in the eves of the world. But Mr. Chamberlain has never shown the smallest ambi tion to lead in the house of com mons. He has never been a candidate for the premiership. The Times ex pects that Mr. Baliour will remain in the house of commons and that the duke of Devonshire will lead the house of lords. The Daily Telegraph says that as soon as lord Salisbury was assured that his desire for rest could not re tard the king's recovery, he formaily tendered his resignation. It was ac cepted with many expressions of re gret. A message was immediately sent to Mr. Balfour, whose first get was to visit Mr. Chamberlain, who de clared his most cordial reaciness to serve ander him. Mr. Balfour then visited the duke of Devonshire, presi- dent of the council, whose answer was similar to Mr, Chamberlain's. After consulting with other members of cabi net, Mr. Baliour was justified in ac cepting the premiership. The Standard, a regular conserva tive organ, says there is no hint of intrigues or personal friction, which often attend. a change in the premier ship. Mr. Balionr's leadership is read ily accepted, even by those who might reasonably regard themselves a8 com petitors fors the vacant place Mr Chamberlain has generously and pa triotically effaced his own aspirations, and is content to remain as Mr. Bal four's able and efficient lieutenant "It is a right and wise decision, vet a minister of Mr. Chamberlain's geni us, who has attained so commanding a position, not in Great Britain alone, but throughout the empire whose pol icy has just been so triumphantly vin dicated and who stands, at the very pinnacle of success ana achievement, might almost be exeused for declining to rest satisfied with any place lower than the highest. It is much to Mr. Chamberlain's credit that he yielded to superior claims. He has added to the weighty obligations under which he has already laid his countrymen, He has shown not for the first time that he can prefer national interests to gratification of personal ambi tion." The Court Circular issued last night gives the king's account of the change in the premiership. It savs: "The marquis of Salisbury had audience with the raz Friday, and tendered his re signation as prime minister and lord of the privy seal, which was gracious ly accepted by his majesty. The king vesterday summoned the Right Hon. A. J. Buliour, first "lord of #hé trea- sury, and offered him the post of prime minister, vacated by lord Salis bury. Mr. Balfour accepted his ma jesty's offer," The. Daily Mail declares that even late Sunday night some members of the government did not know of the resignation of lord Salisbury. A larg. number of members of the house of lords and house of commons were in complete ignorance of the change un til' they received notice to attend n meeting of the conservative party at 12:30 o'clock to-day. The Mail says that lord Salisbury's resignation was not due to ill-health and that he is much stronger than at any time last winter Sir Wilfrid Laurier courteonsly de clined to be interviewed with reference to lord Salishury's resignation. Sir Gordon Sprigge left London on Satur day. Sir Eamund Barton is spending the week out of London, and Sir Richard Seddon was the only colonial premier who would express his views in any detail. The New Zealand states: man. says that with Mr.. Chamberlain at the colonial office, there would be no change in the policy of the gov ernment with regard to the colonies, which has been for the good of the empire. The king has asked lord Salishury to accept some signal honor in return for his great services to the state and it is possible that he will be raised to the dignity of 5 dukedom. Queen Vie toria, on at least two occasions, pro- poged to make him a duke, but his name has not appeared in any of the honor lists for a great many years. The retiring statesman has for weeks past been in failing health and it is believed that his physician urged up on him the necessity of withdrawing at once from the turmoil of political life, otherwise he would probably have delayed his resignation until after the coronation ceremony next month. Jt is assumed that in accordance with custom, the members of cabinet will formally place their resignations ia the hands of Mr. Balfour, so that he may be free to make anv change if he. shoul think it desirable or advie- al a THIS DOG HAS HIS DAY.
