Liberals Making Gains.

LONDON, Dec. 0.-1He countleS are
nolling so strongly for Liberals that they
promise Liberal majority over Tories and
ParnelIifeS combined, the Conservatives re-
curing to win 122 more seats out of the
i44 still unpolled, of which it is calculated
that 30 will fall TO the Parnellites, and cannot
possibly maintain power independent of
the Parnelltes. The opinion OF Conserva
tive clubs is opposed to placing any reliance
on the ParnelliteS. but favors an early res
ignation of the Salisbury ministry in order
to gain an absolute majority. The Liberals
need to win half of the seats still unpolled,
Correct returns for the Southeast division Of
Cork give Alderman John &. Hooper 1920
votes, and Mr. Warren 661. Mr.. Chamber
lain, the Radical leader, voted in Leicester
and subsequently made a speech there, in
which he said
That the defeats OF the Liberals in
boroughs were due to five P's-priests, pub
licauS, parsons, ParneiliteS and Protection
lists. He thought that such q combination
was unlikely to recur. Mr.. Parnel boasted
that he had throttied the Liberal party. He
would probably regret the boast. If it were
true then he had throttled the great machin-
cry that existed for securing justice to Ire
land Mr.. Chamberlain said he did not be-
leve there would be u permanent alienation
of the Irish voters from the Liberal party
time weak government, existing by the suf-
frage of its opponents. If it
DID NO MISCHIEF,
IL might live; if it did, the Liberals would
speedily end it. He hoped that among the
lessons which the elections taught would be
this that he had not lost by having clean,
definite policy, and that nothing could be
gained by whiting away issues until they
were indistinguishable from measures advo-
Gated by opponents.
