AMMAN, Jordan (AP)-Prem. ier Hussein Khalidi's government has resigned. two cabinet minis- ters reported early Wednesday. The Western - inclined regime had been under steady attack since it was installed at young King Hussein's behest eight days ago.

Foreign minister Suleiman Na- busli and development "ster Amin llladjaj emerged from a long " session saying the resignation had been presented and accepted by King Hussein.

Street rioting. a familiar device in Jordan politics, had driven the cabinet into urgent session.

The next step in the govern- ment crisis that has rocked Jor- dan for 15 days was not clear. although the king said Wednesday

in an interview: "You will get the idea of this in the next 24 hours."

The cabinet met throughout the night at the Philadelphia Hotel. Waiting in the lobby were mem- bers of the committee represent- ing all the countryls political par- ties that had demanded l(halidi's cabinet resign to make way for an all-party coalition government.

The minister's met for the sec- 0nd time Wednesday after Khslidi visited the royal palace and talked with thsgking for an hour.

"This campaign was forced upon us and we are going to fight for what we believe is for our honor and our responsibilities." he said in an interview.

"I don't think the crisis will come to an end until all elements and powers behind them (the Com-
