THE HALSBURY BANQUET.
THE GOVERNMENT'S POWERS
(Received July 26, 11.15 p.m.) London, July 26,
'The Duke of Argyll, the Duke of Norfolk, Lord Ripon, Lord Minto, Lord Alyerstone, Lord Balfour of Burleigh, and Lord Northcliff have intimated their intention to support Lord Lansdowne.
The promoters state that the Lord Halsbury banquet is hot a demonstration against Mr Balfour. The speakers at the banquet will include Lord Milner.
"The Times" remarks that the Unionists are mistaken in believing that the Ministry's powers with regard to the creation of peers are restricted. The Cabinet is in favour of the creation of 350 peers if the Royal prerogative is resorted to.
