BALFOUR BEATEN
LIBERALS WIN GREAT VICTORY IN
BRITISH ELECTION.
KEEN POLITICAL CONTEST

Distriet-peeisive Victory for Free

London.-The political map of Eng
land underwent a 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 1880. This vic
tory was a decidedly sensational out
come of the days polling. and will, 1t 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 1.241.
Everywhere the Liberal majorities
were increased, and the net result Of
the first days contest between the
ingly in favor of the present govern
ment.
Although only sixty-six seats are now
filled out of the go required for the
new Parliament which will meet at
Westminster February 18th, the COM
position of the house, as shown w the
results declared up to midnight. is as
follows: Liberals. 80: Unionists. IA:
Laborites, 6: Nationalists. z. This in
ciudes twenty-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
defeat of Mr.. Balfour was received as
a 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, 1t 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 demonstrate
ing with the utmost enthusiasm.
Mr.. Balfour tonight addressed a
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.

LIBERAL LANDSLIDE.
New Government Continues to Gain
in British Elections.

London.-The Liberal landslide con-
tinues. Out of seventy-six contests
Monday the Liberals and Laborites to-
gether secured sixty-two seats. The
Liberal gains to-day show the surpris-
ing total of fOrty-two, while the Union
lists gained one seat, that of Hastings.
Two former cabinet officers went
down before the storm of Liberal SEN
timent.
Gerald Balfour, who was president
of the local government board in the
Balfour cabinet, was defeated by a ma
jority of 1869 at Leeds. and Walter
Hume Long, former chief secretary
for Ireland. lost his seat for South
Bristol. while Augustine Birrell. presi-
dent of the board of education, de-
feated the Unionist candidate at North
Bristol
Lord Hugh Cecil, leader Of the con.
servative free traders, was defeated
at Greenwich, and r. Gibson Bowles, a
Unionist free trader, lost at Kings
Lynn. both being opposed by Chamber
lainites.
Aside from the overwhelming gains
by the liberals throughout the coun-
try, the immense majorities secured
in the turnover are causes of sur
prise to both sides.
The labor candidates are showing
remarkable strength, the total gains
OF the labor party Monday being
seven, not including one socialist, w.
Thorne. who, at Westham. defeated
the Unionist, Sir ]. G. Hutting, by a
majority Of 5000.
The composition of the new Parlia-

ORCHARD EXAMINATION.
Charged With Murder Of Governor
Steunenberg in Idaho.

Boise, Idaho.-The preliminary hear
ing of Harry Orchard, alias Thomas
Hogan, on the charge Of numbering
Ex-Governor Frank Steunenberg at the
gate of his home the evening of De-
cember Both. was begun Saturday at
Caldwell before Probate Judge Church.
After examining eleven witnesses, the
court adjourned until Monday.
The first witness was c. F. Wayne,
who lives just across the street from
the Steunenberg residence He had
done chores about the latter place and
had just returned to his house when
the explosion occurred. 1t put out
lamps in his house and turned over
chairs
He heard Mrs. Steunenberg calling
and went out, being the first man to
reach the victim. He told of asking
him questions. getting no answer and
of going for assistance, after which the
dying man was carried into the house
Sheriff Edward Bell of Cripple Creek
was the first witness called in the after
noon. He Identified the prisoner as a
man who was wanted in his county on
suspicion of having had hand in the
blowing up of the station at Independ-
ence, in which thirteen lives were lost,
said that he had warrant for Or
chard's arrest issued in his county, and
that extradition papers had been issued
for the return of the man to Colorado
in case he was not convicted of the
crime for which he was being held
here.
Deputy Sheriff w. r. Thompson of
Cripple Creek substantiated the testi-
mony of Sheriff Bell concerning the
prisoner being the man suspected of
having something to do with the blow
ing up of the Independence station and
identified the prisoner as the man for
whom he had searched with a warrant
for a year and half.
Mrs. J. L. Martin testified that she
lives about three blocks from the
Steunenberg residence and that on sew
eral occasions during the last of Octo-
ber or the first OF November she saw
Orchard pass her house going toward
the Steunenberg residence and that on
one or two occasions she saw him with
field glasses leveled toward the Steu-
nenberg house, which he was evidently
studying carefully.
The testimony of Bert Bramlett,
proprietor Of the Commercial hotel at
Nampa, concerned Orchards presence
In Nampa the day before the murder.
Bramlett testified that Orchard left an
unusually heavy valise at his hotel dur
ing his stay in Nampa.
This yalise was not in Orchards
room, as far as the oflicers have been
able to learn, when he returned to
Caldwell.

Trout for south America.

chief of fish culture Of the Argentine
Republic, has arrived in Leadvills to
secure Sc. 900 brook trout eggs from the
government hatchery near this city.
The eggs will be shipped to Argentine
to be placed in public streams. He
said that Leadville eggs give better re
suits than any other eggs in the world.
The water conditions, he said, seem
to have . peculiar effect and higher
Matching average can be secured from
eggs obtained here than from any
other place.
This is the. second shipment of

cry to Argentine. The first shipment
was two years ago and = loss OF one per

LACK OF TRANSPORTS.
General star Declare Il to De q ssri-
Gus Danger.

Washington.-A remarkable expost
tion Of the fatal weakness OF the army
transport resources in case OF war is
contained in a paper prepared by the
general stafY, transmitted by Secretary
Taft TO Senator Gallinger. chairman OF
the merchant marine commission In
charge of the shipping bill now pend
ing before the Senate. In the course
OF its work in preparing in time of
peace for war. the general staff dis
covered that even the present limited
military force could not be transported
over the sea In case of war with a for
eign country or to defend our insular
possessions. unless there should be an
immedite and great increase in the
number OF American steamships suita-
BILE for transport service. 1t is pointed
out that foreign shipping could not be
drawn upon in time of war, because OF
the neutrality laws. so that under pres
ent conditions ''the quick first blow. so
very increasingly important, cannot be
struck at an"
The report frankly critices the San
tiago expedition Of 1898. Every Amer
lean vessel that could be obtained in
the Atlantic ports during the twenty
days following the declaration OF war
was chartered, feet OF thirty-six YES
sells . averaging $500 tons. only two of
them over 1000 tons. THE official
records afford ample evidence that the
safe arrival was due to the good for
tune of continued fine weather"
The report declares that no such
fleet as would be needed for an over
seas expedition could be furnished out
of the present resources of the Amer
lean merchant marine.
'In short, to strike the quick blow
of a force corresponding to our perma-
nent military establishment would re-
quire practically all the American
shipping of suitable character in At
lantic waters and more than the en-
tire tonnage in Pacific waters. There
needs no argument to show that this
transport service could not be pro-
cured in fifteen days. 1t is doubtful
whether it could be prepared at all.
