An Intimate Friend Says Hiv Chances of Entering the Government are Bet- ter than Ever. Special Cable Dispatch to Tae Evesrxe Stan. ‘Lospox, August 16,—The provincial papers have contained for days past long speculations from. their London correspondents concerning the posst- ble return of Chatberlain to the Gladstontan party. Inmostof these cases the wisb, and in others the fear, 1s father to the thought, Since the results of the bye elections everybody 1s ask- ing, “What on earth is to become of Chamber- lain, now that the country is changing tts men?” On the other hand, Chamberlain himself has on one occasion only shown any modification of tone.

I have tried to find out what basis there 1s for these reports, and the fol- lowing may be relfed on, so far as it goes: ‘One of Chamberlain's most intimate personal friends 1s a young politician, already of some per- sonal distinction, a member of a Utled legal fam- ¥, Who was defeated at the last election as a unionist candidate, but who has since returned to Gladstonianism on Trevelyan’s lines, He wrote Chamberlain some time ago telling him familiarly ‘that he was “a great ass” not to advantage of ‘Trevelyan’ attitude and the government's treatment of the land question to make a bridge for his own return. He assuresme that Chamber- lain’s attack upon the government in the house was the first plie driven to support this bridge. if the government had stood Arm im refusing the ‘unionist demands Chamberlain would have dej- nitely broken with them.
