Latest Returns.
BIZ Cable to tic United Preee.

LONDON. July II. 1S95.-Si1 William
Harcourt yesterday addressed a letter
to Mr.. W. S. McLaren, Radical mem
ber of Parliament for the Crewe Divi-
sion of Cheshire, in which he wrote:-
"If we were doing well 1 should be glad
of a holiday, but in this storm 1 must
stick to the ship, and am off for
another fight"
Sir William Harcourt was greatly
cheered as he made his appearance to
speak at Tredegar this afternoon and
was frequently interrupted by applause
In the course of his remarks he re-
asserted that temperance would be the
>chief plank in his platform. He de-
elared himself a staunch adherent to the
"Grand Old Man." but it was noticed
that he did not allude in any way to
Lord Rosebery as the Liberal leader.
The Chronicle says: We are not quite
sure whether we share the enthusiasm
over the reappearance of Sir William
Harcourt after his defeat and would
have eounselled his temporary cultiva-
tion of the fireside. He declined to
meddle with the agitation against the
House of Lords and took up the Local
Veto instead. Is his renewed leadership
to be the pledge Of a vetoist policy pure
and simple?
Harry Marks, the Unionist candidate
in the St Georges Division of the
Tower Hamlets, while addressing an out
door meeting last evening, was struck
in the eye with a stone hurled by some,
unknown person. Marks tainted from
the pain he suffered and had to be re-
moved. There is q strong feeling against
Marks, growing out of his recent cow
ardly attack in his newspaper upon his
opponent, Mr.. Benn, whose insane
brother murdered his father. This mat
ter was raked up by Marks who at
tempted to use it against Benn, but
instead of accomplishing his object he
has been making Benn votes at a rapid
rate.
