British Parliamentary Elections.

London, oct. a a. M.-The results
of yesterdays polling in the Parla-
mentary election was less striking than
those Of yesterday. The Conservative
majorities still show increases of num-
bers of contests, but in a less marked
degree. on the other hand, the Lib
erals have gained additional seats on
the whole. the indication, this morn
ing. is that there Will not be much
change in the complexion of the new
Parliament. AS matters stand now,
out of 2S7 candidates returned, the rel
alive strength of the parties is as fol-
lows: Ministerialists. 212; Liberals, in
Guiding labor members. AZ; National
lists rs. All together the Liberals have
gained 10 seats and the Conservatives
seven.

Washington, Oct. "a feeling Of
buoyanJ optimism prevails among Of
ticials here, today. relative TO the Chi
nese troubles that warrants the belief
in the existence of a sound foundation
based on very recent developments in
pending negotiations. 1t is evidently
the conviction officially that a rap
proachment among the powers is near
at hand. However, it is not deemed
wei to make any public announce
ment of the progress of the negotia
tons at this stage. Although it is
known that there have been several
important exchanges recently, both
verbally between the diplomatic rep
reSentatives Of the powers here, and
the state department and through the
United States representatives abroad
and the governments to which they are
accredited. it can be inferred only
that their general tenor has been high
ly favorable from the satisfaction ex-
pressed by the officials.
The encouraging outlook has been
brought about very largely by the har-
mOniouS sentiments which have devel-
oped between this government and
Germany concerning the course Of flu
ture events in China.
Since the return of Sec. Hay he has
had several conferences with Baron
Speck Won Sternberg, the German
charge daffaires, which have been of
such a character as To show that the
purposes of the two governments were
very much alike, and that, whatever
might have been contemplated, they
were now proceeding toward a common
end for the solution of the entire diff
ficulty. The Berlin government re-
ceived, several days ago, the Sheng

NO AGREEMENT
Reached With Mine Owners
Says President Mitchell.
Though Many Believe Some Kind Of
Settlement Is Near
Mitchell Urges Miners 10 Stand Together and
Await More Concessions.

Hazelton, Pa. Oct I'm an address
to the mine workers, today. President
Mitchell emphatically denies that he
had reached any agreement with the
operators Of railroads and reiterates
the statement that no agreement will
be reached until after a convention of
the mine workers. He urges the men
to stand together and await further
concessions. There are those who be-
lieve that some sort Of a settlement is
near at hand, but there is nothing on
the surface upon which such belief
can be based.
The strike situation in the Lehigh
valley az far as the number Of men on
strike is concerned. remains the same.
The question of relief is now receiv-
ing serious consideration by the United
Mine Workers officials.
