LoNDON, July 8L—[New York Herald Cable—[Specil to the Bik. |»Many difticul- ties have arisen in constructing the new ministry, the adjustment of personal claims being a work of peculiar delicacy at this mo- ment. When Mr, Gladstone frames a_cabi- net he consults his own wishes exelusively, but Lord Salisbury does not excreise the sane degree of freedom. Lord Randolph Churchill must be considered. He Is the sort of man who will lave his own way. this cabinet is largely of his making, for personal friends are all in good positions, THEY ARE CHURCHILL'S FR DS, The astonishing preferment of Henry Matthews is entirely due to Lord Randolph. No onc else, outside of legal eircles, knows Matthews, who takes a forenost position in the eabinet and an oflice worth £5,000 1 ata bound. Ceeil Raikes, long and unjustly neglected, receives recognition of his ser- vices. Raikes, an able man and a good de- bater, somehow got shunted. At last he has been put on the track again by Churchill. Lord Iddesleigh 15 doubtless Salisbury’s cliol Nearly all the rest of the appoint- ments were evidently prompted by the youn- ger le nhis REJECTED CANDIDATES M Necessarily there is much bitterness and heart burning among those left out in the cold. Indications or this bréak out in letters to the Times sneering at Churchilland depve- cating his uppointment as leader of the house. Old conservatives generally look upon him as an infant terrible, self-willed, hot-tempered and dangerous, and likely to end by splitting up the par as Gladstone has his. They look very miserable and pre- dict evil things, This is by no means the view of the younger membe: who see in Churchill the only man who dared to tackle Gladstone. They are tired of old hacks and undérstand Churehill's popularity with the masses, It is certain that Churchill is the only man on the conservative side whom Hadstone really fears, 1His pungent sar- casms and quick repartee seem to Lave a peculiarly exasperating effect on the old man. SOLID WITH THE LIBERALS. On the other hand, Churchill is on singu- larly friendly terms, personally, with Cham- berlain, so that there is no chance of his fall- ing out with the liberals, My opinion is that his assumption of the leadership of the house will strengthen his party at first. The subsequent result must depend on his own conduct. At present he rules the roost. Cross’ carriaze stops the way, but in the course of a few hours it will go on again. It is no great secret that Cnurchill and Cross are not entirely congenial spirits. If new blood is required in the cabinet some OLD STAGERS MUST BE SHELVED, Smith taken care of, Manners dealt gently with, and Iddlesleigh placed on velvet, It is perhaps thousht that concessions enough con made to men of Disraeli’s genera- tion. When the under secretaries ave ap- pointed you will probably find several new names on the list. The government is being constituted under the belief that it has along term of office betore it, and, barring acei- dents, 1 do not see how this belief can fail to turn out correct. In this respect I cannot agree with the opinions expressed by yourother uuu--lmmh-um Look carefully ‘I'he conservatives outnum- ber both divisions of the liberals, ey only need twenty votes, or abstentions from any quarter, to possess amajority of the whole house, 1tis AN IDLE DREAM to suppose that both the liberal sections will combine with the Parnellites to produce another general election in hopes of reinstat- ing Gladstone. Recollect that Gladstone has given deep and lasting offense to many ot his old supporters. He has gone out of his way to casta deadly insult upon Chamber- Iain, Collings, Trevelyan, Courtenay and others. They will neither forget nor forgive, Last February they helped to put him in office, but are now bitterly determined not to fall again into any of his ps. They haye have a severe task and they don’t want a similar dose just yet. Recollect also that most of the Gladstonians who saved their seats have had A TERRIDLE SHAKING UP, Consequently they have lost their belief in the magic power of their chief, Nobody an ersuade them now that Gladstene is abso- itely sure to carry the ecountry with him in any measure he choses to propose, These weasures, therefore, will fight shy of any at- tempt, however dexterously concealed, to upset the conservatives. Lastly, recollect the Amportant fact that the myth of the Parnellite shipof forty or fitty English boroughs is quite exploded. When O’Conunor made that boast in the house I felt bound to report it would inevitably do his party great injury, and tnat the English workingmen in these constituencies would be sure to resent the bold assertion that Parnell carried them in s pocket, THE PREDICTION JUSTIFIED. Evyents have amply justified this predic tion, ‘I'he threatened members went to their constituents and said, “Arg you freemen, or are you the slaves of O'Connor & Co.?” ‘What was the result? Nearly all of them were sent back to Westminster, while O'Con- nor is left to meditate on the old proverb: “Furst eateh your hare and then cook it. Looking at these circumstances, what con- clusion Is possible except that the conserva- tives will remaln in power at least until Gladstone disappears from the scene. His own followers would dread another election wore than any other seetion of the house, and the country would heavily punish any party which foreed it on. My experience — pretty extensive in recent elections—econ- yinces we that the people are exceedingly ANGRY I GLADSTONE for throwing busiuess iuto confusion by dis- solviug parliment. Anybody who repeats the experiwent will rue the day. While Gladslone Jives the conservalives and the bulis of the liberal-unionists will hold to- gother frou were diead of scoing him in power again, L the cowrse of nature it s n()\lAllA \l impossible he can live long enough to recover from this knock-down blow. Whether any- Ise will have the courage to propose the bills which brought him to disaster remains to be Treland will receive fair play and local goverument, bu Gl would be cont just now. The National league made war upon many who held liberal ws in Irish aflairs because they refused to vote for Glad- ston sure, The leazue will take a more reasonable position in reference to these members some day. PARNELL'S PARTY WEAKENED, Meanwhile it is useless to deny that the Parnellites return to the honse weakened in influence by Gladstone's failure, and by their own still more signal fallure in the English borrough constituencies. Sherman’s match demonstrated the Liollowness of the confed- eracy. The recent clections have similarly shown the hollowness of Parnellism in K and., This cannot but have a great effect on the course of future legislation and on the authority exereisea by the nationalists in the liouse. A MEMBER OF PAR LIAMENT, M'CARTHY ON MATTHEWS. A Racy Sketch of the New Home Secretary. Loxpox, July 31— [New York Herald Cable —Specialto the Bee,|—Your readersmay be astonished when 1 say that the appointment of the home sceretary in Salisbury’s new government is the political fact which at present has the most interest for me. It has, ind quite a eurious inter- est for Irisnmen living in London. e new home secretary is Henry Matthews, the dis- tinguished advocate and queen's counsel, who was leader in tho case against Dilke, and who was pitiless in his eross-examination and remorse. less in his denunciation of the great radical whom fate had put at his merey. While Matthews was denouncing Dilke, the minds of some of his listeners went back to another case in the nature of divorce, which was heard many years ago, and in which Mr. Matthews had a different t. That, how- ever, Is not the subject to which I wish to df- rect attention, CONCEI Henry Matthe and a strong con s ways a conservative, as far as Irish polities are concerned. Many years ago he sag in the house of commons as member for Dungaryan, Ireland. How did an Englisk conservative get in for Dungarvan? ow but by talking m omuunng indeed, very like fenianism. bellion was just over and the Lo||||||y stil seething with its cmotion when Matthews rushed across from the Temple, presented himself as an Englishman devoted in his sly refused 's mea NING MATTHEW glowing phrases of some of the impr fenian leaders, quite outshone the Iri eral who was supposed to be the favorite,and, in voint of faet, suceeeded in becoming mem- 0. HOW HE WAS ELECT There was certainly a novel written some time after in which, 1 am much inclined to think, Henry Mathews was deseribed, under the name Hamiliear Halber amiddie-azed English barrister who, despairing of a seat for an English constituency, and hearin that some Irish member was not very popu- lar with his constituents, sent for a bundle of Irish nationalist papers and read himself well up in fenian, went to the tem- ple library and studied several books about Ireland, and then rushed over to Ire- land and presented himself as a candidate. He vaguely hinted at a plebiscite, and darkly suggested that the wrongs of Ireland would have been set right long ago, if it had not been for certain Irishmen who, although natural representatives of the great cause, had chosen to make it subservient to social position in London, and the patriotic smile of a minister. HE WAS QUITE RIGIIT, Here, let me remark in passing, Hamiliear Halbert was quite right, Mr. Halbert justi- fied fenianism Dby all the rights of national freedom and swept half the population of the county along with him by the emphatic dec- laration: “Were I unot an Englishman I do not blush to say I shouldbe afenian.” Well, in these days the people of Ireland were ather sick and ashamed of Irish patriots who only went into the house of commons for the sake of getting a place or being welcomed in London society. Halvert, very likely, appeared an attractive change. Anyhow, Henry Matthews sue- ceeded in belng elected to the heuse of com- mons, and from that moment nothing more was heard of his sympathy with the national sentiment of the Irish people. Therefore Matthews was not re-elected for Dungarvan when that constitueney next got a chance of expressing its opinion, and from that time until the late elections little or nothing was known in politics of him. In the late elec- tions NE TRIED HIS LUCK AGAIN, got in for one of the divisions of Birming- ham, and now is suddenly lifted into one of the most important positions in the govern- ment and becomes a cabinet minister, A more sudden, unexpected and extraordinary elevation has not been known in my time. A man of undoubtedly great avility, elo- quence, enerdy ana force of character, whose career yot must, up to the last election, have, 10r one reason or another, been pronounced a failure, becomes at once a member of liament, mewmber of the cabinet, and home secretary, CHURCHILY, DID 1T, Lord Randolph Churehill, beople say made the acquaintance of Matthews during the Birmingham election and was much im- pressed by his ability and andacity, So far as eapacity goes, I should think Matthews will justify the appointment. But his has Dbeen & eurious career. 'The poor and totling man of *In Memoriam'’ asks: *‘Does my old friend remember me?’ Perhaps some fenian exile from Duungarvan may even now be asking: “Does wy old friend AMat- thews remember me?” THE LOBD LIEUTENANT. Of the new lord lieutenant, Lord London- derry, 1 know next to nothing personally, I met him lately at a dinner, but have no par- ticular recollection of anything he said, I know he once counted the votes of the home rulers, when standing for an Ulster constitu- ency, before he succeeded to his title, but I do not lay much stress on that fact except tor the ill-omen of his descent from Castlereagh of the Union—Castlereagh whom Byron branded with such derision, There is noth- ing to be sald against hiw if there is nothing o be said for bim. AN OPINION ON HICKS-BEACH, 8ir Michael Hicks-Beach was Irish secre- ary ouee before and got through the routine work respectably. e is & man still young, 11, handsome, affable, cold and unimpres- sive. He has not one ray of imagination, one gleam of genial sympathy, but may be trusted to bo always polite, always attentive to business, alw willing to oblige.

JUsTIS MCCA to represent VTHY, ABOUT SALISBURY'S CABINET. Men of Respectable Mediocrity—Lord hurchill Not a Heavy-Weight, oy, July 8L.—[New York Herald Special to the Brr]—The work of cabinet-making is almost done, Lord Salis- bury's cholee of licutenants must be a disap- pointment tothe rabid Orange section, So far no representatives of the grand lodges have been given places, so that the brothor- hood has reason to feel angry with the Bri- tish allies. Salisbury is evidently aiming to reassure the country by selecting men of to views and with some business capa- am of the tory party has al- 1 nominated, but the strictest eclee- ticism has failed to produce a really strong government. The new cabinet is rich in titles but somewhat weak in mtellect. The refusal of the unionists to take oflice with Salishury compelled the tory chief to fill his govern- ment with respectable mediocrities. With the exception of Saiisbury and Churchill there are nomen in the new cabinet whose names carry any serious weight in the country. Whether Churchill's elevation to the leader- ship of the commons will bring strength to the tory government depends totally on the potley the tories are prepared to adopt. 1f the old line of conservative be followed the days of the government are already num- bered. Hartington dislikes ana distrusts Churchill’'s tory-radicalism even more than he does Chamberlain’s Ransom- radicalism, and it is not likely to pull in the same boat for any length of lime the young gentleman, who by turns is an orange man or homo ruler, as_best suits his purpose. In all and his unionist f surprise one of these days. ously molds himself on Disrwli,and means to lold power by rapid political evolutions, Ho means to dish the liberal by becoming on occasions more radical than the radicals themselves. 1t was he chiefly who organized the allianee with the home Tulers last year in the hope that with their aid he might elimb into power and Churehill notc OUST THE OLD FOGIES of hisown party whom at heart he despises, Now that the unionists have placed him in power on a somewhat shaky pedestal, he will not be slow to discover that his old allies have votes enough to keep him in power on asolid basis. Already this fact seems to be working its way into the dull noddles of the London tory editors and as a consequence their ferocity, like Bob Acres’ courage, be- gins to 00ze out of thelr fingers' ends, Home rule they still anathematize, but a_broad, comprehensive local government for Ireland replaces their twenty yearsof coercion in their editorial suggestions. The fact is, all men begin to see that unless Ireland is con- ciliated and contented no stable government is possiblein England for years. To this feeling is joined the belief that Churchill will zain “jump Jim Crow,” and abandon- Orange friends makea bold bid for 1 ment. Lord Salisbury, notwithstanding his tall talk, is a TIMID CREATURE IN ACTION and almost wholly dependent on Churchill who i3 a greater fovorite than his leader, both in the commons and in the country. The tory leader must therefore consent to be lead by his lienthnant or go to the wail himself, Churehill is likely to be encowraged to at tempt a bold settiement of the Lrish question by the fact that he will be supported in carry- g out a satisfactory settlement both by Gladstone and Parnell. This support would make him absolutely independent of the orange and old fogy sections of the conserva- tive party and secure him A SHARE WITH GLADSTONE in the glory of having effected a settlement of the long standing dispute between Ire- land and Great Britian. We have already known that the tories have made up their minds to deal with the Irish question in the first legislative session, They want, however, the enjoyment of six months’ officé to enable them to decide on what lines to attempt it. This is tu tirst, stuinbling block, beea the liberal opposi- tion may consider that the tories should make up their minds by October and even should now be in a position to map out the main lines of their policy. The Irish party will probably take the same view unless a very clear assurance of the conduct of the government towards Ireland is publicly given. BIG FALLIN PRICES, ‘The rent question in Ireland this winter is likely to prove troublesome owing to the e: traordinary fall of the prices of produce. Faimers who are seiling butter at 4 pence and 5 pence a pound—which last year brought 12 and 15 pence are asking how they are to ¢ rents based on higher prices, The same conditions apply to the cattle industry, graziers finding they have to sell their fatted stock at prices considerably lower than what they paid for the young beasts three or four months ago. This economic dificulty no “high-faluter” talk about law and order ean settle, and should the government attempt to enforce the PAYMENT OF IMPOSSIBLE RENT! there will be a stormy winter in Ireland. For this grave reason there is probably a strong disinclination to leave the tory gov ernment entirely unchecked all the winter, unless very serions pledgzes are given by Lord Salisbury that a moderate coneiliatory poliey will be pursued. This consideration, pointed with the threatening aspect of the eastern question, will make the liberals very loth to agree to a prorogation of the com- mons in February. Gladstone, I believe, is strongly opposed to leaving the to government so long free trom parliamentary control, and it is not likely that any largo numbor of unionists—liberals would ven- ture to vote in favor of giving the tories an absolutely free hand Sor nearly seven wonths, 1 am pretty certain that Gladstone and his followers will not postpone the meeting of parlinment beyond October, If the tories like to wake a trial of theif strength on the question they ay cowme to earlier grief.

The estimated increase of about 70,000,000 bushels of winter wheat over the short crop of last year is partially offset by the estimated de- erease of abont 20,000,000 bushels in the yield of spring wheat, and while the aggregate wheat erop of this district promises about 50,000,000 bushels more than the short erop of last year, it is worthy of note that it will probably fall about 60,000,000 bushels below the crop of 1884, The condition of the corn crop has been serfously reduced by the pro- longed drought, but in - considering the out- look it must not be forgotten that this dis- trict has an increase of upwards of 2,000,000 acres planted this year, including about 20 per cent increase in Kansas, Our estimates are based upon reports recelved this week from our usual reliable sources: YIELD OF WINTER WHEAT.
