LONDON, November 2-MunicipaI cleo
uons were held yesterday in England and

most general defeat of the social sts and
other candidates of advanced views and
Tor an equally pronounced triumph for
the conservatives. Municipal contests
here, which formerly We're invariably
fought out on political lines have been
iess so In recent years, but on this occa-
sion they seem to have reverted to the
earlier conditions. mainly owing to the
energetic appeal of the socialists to the
electors.
There were probably a thousand social
lists and advanced labor candidates seek
ing election in the various constituencies
but only mere handful were successful.
their defeat in most instances being crush
ing. The strong organized opposition to
the socialists was probably answerable
for large proportion OF the conservative
gains. which completely overwhelmed
those Of the liberals and all other parties
but the results can also be taken as an
indication of the continued dissatisfaction
with the present liberal government.
Another feature of the campaign was
that women were eligible for the first
time TO seek election to the municipal
council. Seventeen entered the field a
majority of whom advocated an advanced
program. Only three of them were

NEW YORK. November 2-Supreme
Court Justice Mahlon Pitney, sitting In
Jersey City, yesterday delivered a special
charge to the Hudson county grand jury
in which he said that the prosecutor and
others had said that there exists serious
reason to suspect that a very extensive
fraud is contemplated to be put into ex-
ecution at the approaching election by the
voting Of persons in this county and
especially in the city of Jersey City, who
are not lawfully entitled to vote"
The court is given to understand" said
the justice. that in numerous cases,
more numerous than l am willing to men,
ton now. names have been illegally add
ed to the registry. and the law presume s
that If Illegally added they are added for
fraudulent purpose, a purpose that has
to do with design to vote persons not
entitled to vote"
The justice said he had recommended
that measures be taken to arrest all per-
sons who attempt to vote unlawfully. and
added that the court has deemed it pru-
dent not to give any knowledge Of the
limits of the discovery of the lawbreak-
ers.
1T has been intimated." he added, that
by reason of the indictment of certain Of
the police force members of that force
will lack the courage to do their duty in
this 1uncture The court hopes no such
consideration will debar any man from
doing hfs duty in this election to prevent
unla awful voting.
The justice directed the grand jury to
vestigate at once complaints lodged
against the four members of the board of
elections of the fourth district Of the sec
ond ward who were arrested a few days
