The Conservative Vote Seems to Keep Pa
With the Liberal.

The Conservative Vote Seems to Keep Pace
with the Liberal.
LONDON, July with Saturday afternoon
the Liberals are again hopeful. and they look
10 the remaining county divisions to make up
for what they failed to gain in the boroughs.
1t is only, however, the more sangulne Lab
Parliament without the aid OF the
Irish Nationalists. aud 1t IS no
secret that some Of Mr.. Gladstone's
most trusted followers will refuse TO 90 with
HIM into government dependent for exist
ence upon the whims of Timothy Healy and
his associates. 1t is feared that II the lrlsh
are to be called upon for and in sustaining a
Gladstone ministry the fair demands
will soon become so eroroitant as to
ALLEVIATE many Of the Liberals and put
the Government in minority. lt
is. however. as yet far from certain that, even
with the Nationalist votes. the Liberals
will have ma ajorlty. The Conservatives are
fighting with a stubbornness that surprises
their opponents, and with success in many
constituencies that is equally surprising.
The growth of the Conservative
vote has amazed the. Liberals, who had sup
posed that at least three-tft or the IN
creased registration would belong TO the
Liberal side. They find, however, that so
far from this being the case the Conserya-
tiyes have ia number OF constituencies kept
pace with and even exceeded the Liberal gains
The defeat of Cabinet Minister hitchie for
st. Georges in the Fast is one of the proml-
nent topics of discussion in connection with
the electoral struggle.
At present the general election is as unde-
cided as it was on Monday morning last.
Both parties have been plunged in gloom ny
some returns only TO be inspired with enthu-
siasm and hope by the next batch Of figures.
and so it has gone on day after day until the
decision is deferred to the coming week when
the county elections will be continued.

ENGLISH ELECTION RETURNS.
Tho Farmers Downed the Viscount and
Enmire in GreAt Shape.


Squire in Great Shape.
LONDON July 9.-The following is the in
PRODUCTION to the election returns today
The elections to-day have raised the spirits of
the Liberals the net Liberal gain now being
thirty. The total number of members elected
up 10 this time is 400. or these the
Conservatives have elected 189 and the Liberal
llnionsts. 20. making a total for Tories and
Liberal nionists of 2l5. The Liberals have
elected 1853 members, including labor candi-
dates: the Irish anti-Parnellte Nationslists
have elected q. and the Parnellites mem
bers. Adding the Liberals. ant-Parneilites
and Parnelltss together makes total of 1875,
so sthat the Conservative Liberal u Unionists'
alliance leads all the opposition 10y 30 votes.
The agricultural voters as bad been hoped
came in "a degree 10 the rescue Of the Liberals
to-day and gave the party gains in South
Northamptonshire. Wiltshire, Bedfordshire
Deyonshre and Gloucestershire. Nothing
could be more hair-raising for the classes than
the Indifference with which the plodders of
the field but few years ago but little better
than serfs ignored title and family position
and prestige IN casting their votes.
AN INDEYHSDEST SPIRIT
They moved down the viscount and
the squire showed an independence
of which the average shop-keeper in
England is wholly incapable. A sig,
nluCAlt feature OF LO-QAy LlDeIhl
gains is swinging back into line of old
Liberal districts like BiReleswade, Tavistock
and Stroud IL is clear that the scare about
h ms rule no longer influences unfavorab y to
any serious degree voters otherwise inclined
TO the Liberal party.
In Ireland the Conservatives to-day made
their solitary gain. They elected their man IN
North Fermanaugh, thanks TO the Nationalist
dissension. The nti-Parnellites succeeded in
putting in their men in place Of the Parnell-
ties in several districts. Sir Thomas Henry
Grattan Esmond, defeated in Dublin, be-
ing accommodated with the seat of West
Kerry at the expense of Mr. Edward Harring-
ton, Parnelite. who has occupied it. The de-
feat of MIR. J. j. O'Kelly in North Roscom-
mon removes o man Of no ordinary ability
from Parliament. Mr. 0'Kelly himself or
ganzed his campaign and conducted it with
admirable courage but the antl-Parnellites
were too much for him.
The returns up to this afternoon show 1s9
Tories, l5s Liberals. 70 unionists. 4 Far.
nellites and % Nationalist elected, a net
Liberal gain of 30.

A CITY PARTIALLF IN RUINS.
Six Lives Lost snd Six Hundred Buildings
DESTROYED.

HALIFAX. n. s., July 9.-The most disas-
trous fire in the history of ST. John, N. s..
broke out yesterday afternoon during heavy
northwest gale. The insufficient water sup
ply ut the heights. where the fire originated,
gave the destructive element full play. The
high wind carried the hive embers III every
direction. and soon the flying confiagration
spread destruction.
The flames swept toward the harbor lick
ing up everything IN it's wide swath. Tho
whole centre of the city is smouldering
mass Of ruins. Not building in the path is
left standing. At & O'clock the telegraph
cable was burned. The historical Parliament
buildings and the Government palace are
among the places destroyed. IL IS imposs-
BILE TO estimate the loss. Already over 5000
people are homeless.
At last accounts from st. John 600 build
ings had been destroyed and six lives lost.
Much suffering exists among the people made
homeless. and the mayor has appealed to
other cities for relief.
FOUITEES LIVES LOST.
Reports received tonight from st. Johns.
n. F., say that fourteen lives have been Lost in
the fire and that loss TO property will reach
ten or fifteen million dollars. The fire is still
raging. Two thirds of the city is destroyed
and from the present outlook the whole city
Wi II be swept away. Telegraph communica-
tion is now destroyed.
