CABLE SUMMARY.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. —COPYRIGHT.) London, March 19. It is the intention of the Marquis of Salisbury to consult his party with the object of expediting the passage of the Tithes Bill. It is stated that a Conference of the Conservative party has been summoned for to-morrow to consider the propriety of a dissolution taking place. Lord Salisbury will probably threaten his party with it unless he is loyally supported and the business of the country advanced. Mr W. H. Smith, on behalf of the Government, will submit a motion to secure that the present session shall close earlier than usual in the direction of Sir H. Trevelyan's motion. Mr Caine states that Mr Goschcn favours a dissolution after Easter. The Government was defeated by a small majority on one of the clauses of the Rights of Way Bill for Scotland. Lord Randolph Churchill refuses to resign, owing to the limited character of the censure passed 011 hira by his constituents. The Comte de Paris has expressed his warm approval of the action of the Due d'Orleans. The spirits of the Royalists are rising. Owing to the stagnation in colonial stocks, the Queensland loan is not expected to cxceed the minimum. The success of the Cape loan is dubious. The French Chamber, by a majority of 240, has expressed its confidence in the Freyeinet Ministry. An anonymous donor has given £50,000 for the establishment of a hospital and convalescents' home.
