MINISTERIAL RUPTURE.
Dunedin, May 23.
The Times' Wellington correspondent telegraphs that serious dissentions in the Cabinet are announced. Since the Hon. W. Whitaker came down, Cabinet meetings of great length have been held daily. It is said that Ministers are utterly unable to agree as to the principles on which the policy of next session should be founded. On Saturday, Mr. Whitaker was going post haste to Auckland, and orders were given to take the Hinemona off the slip, whether her repairs were finished or not, as he wanted to leave on Monday. Then his departure was postponed till to-morrow. The people of Wellington would not be surprised to hear of Ministerial changes before Parliament meets.
