of his candidates in the divisions. and, ex-
cent in the case of Sir John Stone. giving large
r7atorttfes Sir John Stones defeat in the East
Division was expected by the Unionists them
selves and hence his retention of the seat by a
majority of only a few hundred votes is re-
garded satisfactory.
The Liberals had been optimisticany expect
ing that the results throughout the country
would affect Birmingham. but even the Liberal
sweep was not able to overcome Mr.. Chamber
lain's great personal popularity.
Immense crowds stood for hours In City Hall
Square awaiting the results. When the figures
were presented there was tremendous cheering.

indicated the anxiety Of Birmingham TO send
Mr.. Chamberlain back to Parliament with a

City Hall tonight but received the returns OF
his home His majority was 5000. He issued
the following message to the electors:

justified my confidence. l am deeply grateful 10

streets of his constituency. The workingmer
who form the great bulk of the voters In tho
lined the streets and cheered the
candidate. The business community at the Town
Hall. where Mr. Chamberlain stopped to cast his
vote for the Unonist candidate for Central
