COLLAPSE OF RICHTERISTS.

the empire continue to give evidence of the col
lapse Of Richter's radical party. The south
German democrats, with whom the Richterist
Joined hands at the opening OF the campaign to
fight more effectively against the army bill
the polls. have secured five seats, one OF them
won from the national liberals, and are likely to
enter the next reichstag with their delegation
increased from ten to fifteen.
At Poctock this morning, however, not a dis
patch has been received to indicate that the
Richterists had carried q constituency on the
first ballot.
This failure Of the Richterists is due partly to
the fact that the radicals who deserted Richter
to make a government campaign under the
banner Of the radical union we're the cream OF
the old party.
Excepting virchow hardly a conspicuous
deputy stood by Richter after the dissolution
OF the reichstag. Rickert. Broemel, Hinze,
Barth, editor Of tho Nation; Siemens and
Haenel deserted at once to the government
The dissidents are known to have elected one
deputy and to have the best chances of electing
seven or eight more on the second ballot. The
Richterists, who constitute two-thirds OF the
parliamentary party Of sixty-seven, will bring
probably few more than twenty-five members
into the next reichstag.
GAIN FOR THE GOVERNMENT.
This state Of affairs is distinctly favorable to
sition is expected to more than counterbalance
the gains of the social democratic opposition.
TIE ANrI-sEMIrIc CANDIDATES.
The anti-semites are now believed to be in q
way to secure twelve seats. Ahlwardt and
Boeckel, the most blatant members of the last
parliamentary group, have already been re-
turned. The aggregate vote OF the anti-seml;es
has increased amazingly since 1890.
The national liberals, according to the re-
ports received up to o'clock this morning, are
likely to return to Berlin with approximately
their old delegation Of forty.
The opposition clericals under DR.. Lieber
have retained virtually all their old constituent
cies, as far can be ascertained.
The government clerical-agrarian movement
under Freiherr Won Schollemer-Alst and Frei-
herr Won Huene has shown no evidences Of suo
cess. The conservatives and free conserva-
tives, as was expected, are suffering no losses.
The social democrats are still triumphant at
the expense of the Richter radicals.
In general. the advantages gained by the gov
ernment are to be found in the prospect that
some ten radical.unionists. who voted against
the army bill and who now favor it, have good
prospects of sitting in the next reichstag and
that the anti-semitic representation. partially
favorable to the government, bids fair to be
greatly increased.
As the candidates whose elections have been
reported number but few more than 100, how
ever, the question WuetDer the government
won or lost by the dissolution cannot vet be
answered positively. The present conclusive
returns from constituencies carried by the
large parties show that the conservatives and
free conservatives have secured twenty-seven
seats, clericals twenty-seven. social democrats
twenty-three, national liberals seven. The
Poles have nine seats, the South German demo
Gratis five.
