PROPOSED EARLY DISSOLUTION.
[Special to Pbkss Association.} . LONDON, Jttne 25.
The Marquis of Salisbury has postponed the acceptance of the call to form a Ministry pending an assurance that there will be no obstructive tactics to delay the granting of supply and the winding-up of the bnsiness of the House, in order to prevent a dissolution before harvest.
The Badicals are reluctant to forego the tactical advantage which the even state of partieß gives them.
The Daily News advises Lord Bosebery to meet what it terms an impudent request with a peremptory refusal.
The Times says that Mr Chamberlain prefers the Colonial Department to the War Office.
Mr Gladstone has hastily returned from Germany, and dined with Lord Bosebery yesterday.
Lord Salisbury proposes to dissolve at an early date, probably in ten days.
It is expected that Sir E. Olarke will be Attorney- General and Mr Oarson Solicitor- General. Mr Long is suggested as Secretary for Ireland.
. The Times thinks that if supply is taken now tbe election must be deferred until after harvest, say the end of October.
