ston, two Parnellites who undertook to
contest two seats belonging To Dublin
University against III. Hon. David
Plunket and Rt. Hon Hughes Holmes, bOt tn
Conservatives, who held them in the last
Parliament and were nominated for them
in the next, were jeered and hooted to day,
wherever they went, by the students OF
the university. The latter, at one time,
attempted to bomb and drive the home
rulers out of the district, which is a great
Tory stronghold. Mr.. Plunket, however,
prevented the contemplated outrage. The
ParnelItes stood their ground, and made
a plucky contest, although the students
and Tories thwarted every effort on the
part OF the candidates to make speeches.
by drowning their voices with grOans and
boots. Mr.. SarsIield's scarlet gown was
pulled away from him and thrown to the
mob, who tore it into small pieces.
The students threw rotten eggs at
Messrs. Johnston and Sarsfeld The Con-
servative candidates vainly begged that
the Nationalist candidates be given fair
hearing. The stHdents, singing "God
save the Queen" Kept up an uprOar for
three hours. Finally. by show OF hands,
the provost declared Messrs. Plunket and
Holmes elected. A poll, however, was
demanded, and the provost ordered that
poll be taken next week.
UNIoNIsTs ROUTED.
A most desperate electoral struggle be-
tween the Gladstoneites and UniOnists
ended to-day by the utter rOut OF the lat
ter in the Parliamentary district known
as Leithburge. w. Jacks was returned
TO the last Parliament as a regular Lib
eral by Il majority of $3.50 in total poll
OF S,S40 votes. He opposed the home rule
bill, but was nevertheless considered in
vincible in his district, and was
nominated in the present canvass
as Unionist to continue his
opposition to the Premier's irish policy
Jacks hostility to Mr.. Gladstone angered
thousands Of ScOtchmen of Leith, but
they looked upon their opposition to him
as hopeless and were unable to obtain
candidate to oppose him, al those men
toned for the seat having declined TO run.
The Tories, IN order 10 emphasize the Un-
ionist opposition to the Premier, withheld
opposition and lett the field clear to Mr..
Jacks, 50 that he might go back to the
House OF Commons with a largely in
creased majority. At the last hour
allowed by law the Liberal mana
gers nominated Mr.. Gladstone himself
as their candidate, the Premier consent
ing. Thus equipped, the CiladstOneites
went at their WORK. This was 80 effective
that Mr.. Jacks become scared, and to-day
withdrew from the field, leaving the LeIth
membership to Mr.. Gladstone. VINO was
elected without opposition. This, with
his Midlothian district, gives the Premier
two seats in Scotland He will, perhaps,
choose to sit for the latter and select re-
liable man TO recontest Leith with the as
surance of success.
At9o'clock tonight 81 Conservatives,
10 UniOnists, II Gladstonians and S Par
nellites rad been returned.
THE FEATURE OF THE POLLING.
The feature OF to-day's polling is the
great number of abstentiOns. In nearly
every case the votes are greatly reduced
in number. The Liberals have won
seats in East Leeds, Southwest
Manchester, North Manchester, and
in the Exchange division of Liver
pool. The Tories have won seats in South
Saltord, West Stafford, Hereford, Hast

The Unionist candidate for Newcastle
under-Lyne holds his seat notwIthstand-
ing frantic efforts to defeat him. The
Unionist candidate az Bristol is equally
successful. Jacob Bright, Gladstonian,
brother OF John Bright, is elected in Man
chester. Sir Il. Brassy, Gladstonlan, who
left Hastings 10 contest Liverpool. is de-
feated. At stockport, JeaDIugs, Tory, re.
ceved 4,1O2; Gedge, Tory, 1876; Leigh,
Liberal, 4.lN, and DaNev, Liberal, 93S.
In West Leeds Herbert Gladstone receiy-
ed 8, ,226. and Williams 2,070. IL is feared
that to-day's polling will depress the
Liberals.

up 10 / o'clock this morning show the
election of 81 Tories, IS Unlonists, 80
Gladstoniaus and Parnellles.
PARNELL THREATENED.
MIR. Parnell receives letters every day
menacing MIN with injury or assassina-
ton for his efforts to dismember the en-
pire. He has not, however, solicited
. lice protection or called public atten-
tion to his perilous position. He is
escorted everywhere he goes in his cam
paign work by a bodyguard Of personal
friends, all stalwart young Irisbmen, who
say they feel perfectly able TO take care of
him and themselves.
Mr. Gladstone has issued a manifesto to
the Welsh electors, in which he SAYS:
"This Is not the first nor the tenth time
that the Tories have raised the cry of
