The News in London.
LONDON, Nov S.-The London bureau
of the New York Herald attempted to ex
cite public interest in the American
presidential election by the sale of an
extra edition containing the fullest re
turns o%btainable. as a bit of newspaper
enterprise. The edition was a success,
but in respect of creating enthusiasm or
increased interests in the9contest. it was d
fiat failure. London papers contented
themselves with printing q few lines
each, and completed the official by show
ing hideous cutsof Harrison and Morton.
The American legation was Obliged to
rely wholly upon the meagre newspaper
reports, and WAS consequently unahle to
respond to the large number of inquiries
for information concerning the election.

TO the last, and still expresses belief that
Mr.. Cleveland will be foand to have
been elected. No anxiety or alarm what
soever has been created by the result of
the election, except in Yorkshire, where

gress next winter, will place a duty of
45 per cent. upon all manufactured
woolens.
The Times says: ''Though Mr.. Cleve-
lands internal policy has been more re-
markable for capacity nd-uprightness
than anything to which the Republicans
can point in recent years, we cannot re-
greet the event which may be regarded
as an appropriate penalty for his sub
serpiance to the meanest influences in
American politics. We are sincerely
sorry, however, that the change involves
the retirement of Minister Phelps.n
The Telegraph ssys:- Slight interest
has been taken here in the-.elections.
Englishmen have wished well of the

Thel Chronicle says: sit is pretty well

and Blaine pulls the. strings. The ac-
cession of the Republicans to power
