'BALFOUR BEATEN
LIBERALS WIN GREAT VICTORY IN
BRITISH ELECTION.
KEEN POLITICAL CONTEST
Conservatives Lose Eighteen Seats

District-Decisive Victory for Free
Trade.
London.-The political map of Eng
land underwent striking change as
the result of parliamentary elections
held Saturday in thirty-nine constit.
uencies in widely-scattered but import
ant centers, in which the Liberals
gained eighteen seats. The Laborites
who are counted among the Liberal
gains, secured four new seats against
unionist candidates.
In the eastern division of Manches
ter, Arthur j. Balfour, the former pre-
mier, was defeated by T. G. Horridge,
Liberal. Mr.. Horridge secured the re-
markable majority of 1850. This vic
tory was decidedly sensational out
come of the days polling. and will, it is
believed, enormously effect the cleo
tions, which will continue for fort
night.
Winston Churchill, Liberal and Free
Trader, won the seat for the north
west division of Manchester from w.
Johnson Hicks, Conservative, by ma
jority of 1,24l.
Everywhere the Liberal majorities
Were increased, and the net result OF
the first days contest between the
great political parties was overwhelm-
ingly in favor of the present govern
ment.
Although only sixty-six seats are now
filed out of the GO required for the
new Parliament which will meet at
Westminster February 18th, the COM
position of the house, as shown by the
results declared up to midnight, Is as
follows: Liberals, 80; Unionists, IA;
Laborites, 6; Nationalists, T. This in
ciudes twonty-four candidate who
were unopposed and the two candi-
dates elected at ipswich Friday.
Political clubs received the returns
by special wires. and everywhere the
ilefeat of Mr. Balfour was received as
n most complete surprise. Then as
Liberal gain was added to Liberal gain
until the remarkable total of twenty
two seats. counting the Laborites, out
of thirty-nine constituencies was
reached, it was agreed that the Liberal
majority in the next Parliament
would show the overwhelming decis-
ion of the country.
Dispatches received from Manches-
ter say that the excitement there was
indescribable. Great crowds swarmed
the streets cheering and demonstrat-
ing with the utmost enthusiasm.
Mr.. Balfour tonight addressed
gathering at the Conservative Club.
He acknowledged the gravity of the
disaster but predicted short life for the
Liberal government. He urged the
Unionists to continue to work for the
party and the future reversal of Sat
urday's results.
OF course, Mr.. Balfour will find an
other safe seat before the elections are
over. by one of the Unionist candidates
retiring in his favor. Up to the pres
ent. however, there is no indication
where the former premier will find this
place where he can secure a majority
which will enable him to take his seat
as leader on the front opposition
bench.
