LONDON, April lin Mondays elec-

division of Birmingham, so long and
hononbly occupied by John Bright, the
Tories, to a man, voted for the Unionlst
candidate, Mr., Albert Bright, in spite Of
repeated declarations on the part Of the
local leaders that the Conservatives
would make no special effort to swell
the majority in favor Of the great mans
son, for various and obvious reasons.
These reservations, however, were sim
ply put out as "bluf," for nobody seri'
ously believed that the Tories would
consent to the election Of q Gladstonian
by default,
In the case Of the election in ROches.
ter yesterday, the conditions were differ
ent. The disreputable Colonel Hughes.
Hallett, rampant Tory, was actually
driven from his seat by the reactiOnary
influences OF his private conduct. His
majority at the last election was very
small-only ga out OF the total vote OF
2,053-and the Conservatives were driven
by the force Of party pride, and the des.
peration created by their recent loss OF
seats to make u hot contest for the party's
retention OF the seat. Every legitimate
election dodge was resorted to to hold
the division, but 10 no purpose, though
the earnestness and extent Of their work
may be seen In the fact that while the
total poll has increased since the last cleo
tion by 2S2, the Liberal majority is only
70. The Liberals are now growing over
their victory.

Among the baltimore 8 Ohio Officials on
Account of the Insurance Plan.
NEWARK, o., April 1.-THE talk Of a
threatened strike on the Baltimore &
Ohio system, should an attempt be made
to compel the employees to accept the
new plan Of insurance, is without foun'
dation in fact, SO far as the trans,0hio
divisions are concerned. In this city
alone, which Is the general headquarters
on this side Of the Ohio river, the COM
pany employs about one thousand men,
almost six hundred Of whom are en-
ployed in shops here. In a canvass
among the men, there are but few who
object 10 the plan or its expense. OF
all the men employed, every one has
taken the insurance except one and he
was not discharged.
All Of these signed the paper Of their
own accord. OF the men In the trans
portation department, there arc some
who oppose the scheme, but us they con-
tinue.at work they will probably take 1t.
Mr., w, II. Harrison, Superintendent Of
Motive Power, who has Just returned
from trip along the line, said to-day
there was no likelihood Of trouble. He
placed the difficulty on the Chicago
division to the continual agitation Of
what he termed insurance sharks" /" and
claimed the kiCkGrs belong to the class
that never save cent for themselves or

NEW York, April 1.-THE Pacific
Mail Steamship Company will soon re-

magnificent new steamer Pacific, which
they found it cheaper to build abroad

er abroad, said: "The cost OF material
in the Clyde is about 80 to 10 per cent
less than here, while our wages are 90 to
so per cent higher than are paid the
Scotchmen. Messrs. Jay Gould & Son
had the steamer in question built in
Scotland on account Of this Cheapness.
She cannot fly our Aag or stop at two
American ports with load in her. This
boat has been built 10 make money for
Americans, and America pays for her.

Criminate against her when a bill passes

subsidies to American built vessels to
carry the mails TO China, Japan, Brazil

WASHINGTON, D. g., April l7.-Since
March 4, about 500 changes have been
made in the personnel OF the railway

General Clarkson, to-day said It has
been the policy Of the department to dis.
place incompetent clerks and appoint ex.
perienCed and thoroughly efficient men
who left the service during the last ad.
ministration, where such were available
and desirous OF re.entering the scr.
vice. OF course, he said, men whose
faculties have become impaired or
whose thorough fitness has become
questionable will not be reinsLated. The
railway mail service, he continued, re.
quires men not only OF superior intelli.
genCe, but men whose faculties are In
perfect working order. Men who possess
every requirement OF the service are
comparatively few and are not easily
secured, but when such are found they
should be retained in the service as long
as possible. Efficiency in the postal ser.
vice can be obtained only after q long
struggle, and 10 remove such men 10
