| and Unionist vote of 942. 437, and Gladstonian
vote of 887, 728. OF the sixty-two London seats
only eleven have been secured by Gladstonians
| The government newspapers admit that the
voice of the majority Of the masses is the same
as that of the classes. The totals at this hour
| (midnightl are: Conservatives and Union
lists, 302; Gladstonians. 1916. The Con-
servatives, i'll order to obtain a
working majority independent of the
| Liberal Unionists, must carry eighty
two of the remaining 173 seats ard it is consid-
cred improbable that they will succeed in doing
SO. The Gladstonians rely upon the collapse of
| the Conservative Unionist coalition when Lord
| Salisbury takes Office, and they are certain that
| the Conservatives cannot dominate the House Of
| Commons unless the Unionists cooperate with
| them
| 1t is reported in government circles that Mr.
| Gladstone is undaunted, and is determined to
wage ceaseless battle in Parliament. Political
leaders of every party anticipate period of un-
| precedented parliamentary conflict.
