 were not quite as successful in the
 eighteen Massachusetts city elections
 held to-day as they were in the four teen held last week, for although they carried eleven to the democrats four, the other three being non-partisan, three republican mayors were defeated, while the party suffered almost a rout in this city.

In Chelsea, where the republicans swept the city. there was also a change from no license to license for the first time in eleven years. In Newburyport, where license has held firm for twenty years, the city voted no by over 300 majority.

McNamee over Mayor Dickinson by 125.

UNExPECTED Fh lJrAD OF ENGLAND
Belgium Socialist Leader Astonishes
 House of Deputies.

Brussels, Dec. 1o-Nhen the question of the concentration camps in South Africa was brought before the Cham Der of Deputies to-day M. Van Der Velde, the socialist leader, astonished the house by the moderate tone of his speech, which was greatly opposed to his usual treatment of Great Britain's conduct of the war.
 The deputy disclaimed all hostility to Great Britain and said that his wife was English and added. that his broth er-in-law was fighting under Lord Kitchener. He loved Great Britain be- cause it was the chosen country of lib- erty, of economic interests and of exiles, and was the friend of Belgium. He appealed, however, to the sympathies of the chamber in behalf of the old men, women and children In the concentra- ton camps, and said he desired to know the attitude of the government of Bel gium in the event of other governments uniting to approach Great Britain for the purpose of obtaining better treat ment of the people in the camps. M. Van Der Velde's remarks were greeted with warm applause from the crowds in the galleries, among the occupants of which were Mrs. Steyn, the wife of President Steyn; Mrs Louis Moritz and Mrs. Botha.

 on Street With Another Mans Wife.

Haverhill, Mass, Dec. 10.-A self-con- fessed murderer, John D. Mutch is lock- ed up in the local Jail tonight, having shot and killed James Oakes, a shoe maker, with revolver. The tragedy occurred on the street and Mrs. Mutch, wife of the prisoner, was the only known witness. The act is supposed to have been committed in fit of jealous frenzy caused by Oakes' attentions to Mrs. Mutch. The story of the latter is very vague. She even refused at first to admit that she has been witness to the crime.
 The police say that Mutch had heard from many sources Of the attentions Taid his wife by Oakes and had been taunted with the fact to such degree that several times he had become tenn porarily deranged. This evening he met Oakes and Mrs. Mutch and after angry talk with the man, shot him in the chest. Oakes died on the way to the hospital, and Much went to the po- lice station and gave himself up The charge is that of murder, and he will be arraigned tomorrow
