It transpires that the election OF q
Socialist candidate to the British par
lament, recently achieved for the first
time, cannot he taken as an epoch
making victory" except by the most
sanguine adherents of the Socialist
party. In a three cornered fight be-
tween 1920 voters the Socialist. who
is man Of exceptional personal quail
fications for political canvass. won by
only tifty-three votes. He stood for Ia
Dor as well as socialism. and therefore
his success can hardly indicate a rising
tide of socialism in England.
Apparently the Socialist vote does
not keep pace With the growth of So
cialist doctrines. Recent statistics show
that if the total vote cast for Socialist
candidates in the last recorded eiec-
tious OF the whole world were polied IN
tae United States the party could not

which prove that the Socialist vote

over 4a0.esi9 in 1904.
Spurts of Socialist strength at the
polls in certain communities are ex-
planned by the Times correspondents
as purely local manifestations. In
communities where such Socialistic
sentiment exists the Socialist party
fails to obtain political control. as the
dominant PARTIES usually make conces-

Was Annoyed.

New York, Jan.-Two little tots,
aged and ? years old, told Magis-
trate House in the Harlem Police
Court that their stepmother, Mrs. Kate
Cravius, had branded them with a
red-hot stove litter, when in play they
had made too much noise. Twice dur
ing the recital, the prisoner, a woman
of intelligence and pleasing appear"
ance, not more than 25 years of age,
tainted. When restored, the woman
admitted that she had burned the chill
dren, but said that at the same time
she was possessed by an unaccount-
able mania. The two girls, she said,
had been playing with their dolls I'M
til the noise and confusion robbed
her of her reason and left an impulse
To burn the little ones. Selling the
stone lid litter, she pressed the
glowing end upon the back of the
right hand of each child, causing scars
that the little ones will carry to their
graves. Apparently the children and
their stepmother have a great deal or
affection for each other.

WILL RESIGN
1T is SAID THAT GOV. sWETTEM
HAM is UNABLE TO COPE !
WITH AFFAIRS AT KINGSTON.

Kingston, Jan.-It is understood
that Governor Swettenham rendered
mis- resignation to Lord Elgin, sec,
rotary for the colonies, a few days
ago in consequence OF theAdmiral
Davis incident and his inability to
solve the problem created by the
earthquake. On Saturday the gov
ernor visited the temporary offices
of the municipal council and inform,
ed the vice chairman, who is acting
in the absence of Mayor TAFT, who
is injured, that the government had
decided to relieve the people of King
stOn from all rates and taxes for a
period of fifteen months, beginning
January l. This announcement has
been received with qualification by
the residents Of the city, who will be
encouraged to start the work of re-
building as early as possible. Arch
bishop Nutall, in an interview, said
that the Municipal Council was un'
able to deal with the present extra
ordinary emergency and should be
abolished and one commissioner with
full powers should be appointed to
govern the city during the period of
reconstruction. He also declared that
in addition to the generous contribu-
tions from the United States and
Canada and elsewhere. it is abso-
lutely Necessary to obtain an imperial
grant and large imperial loan to
rebuild Kingston. more particularly
in view of the attitude of the English
fire insurance companies, which have
disclaimed all liability for loss sus-
tanned during the earthquake and
fire.

German Elections.

Paris, Jan.-Examining the result
Of the German elections from an in
ternational viewpoint, practically the
entire French press unites in regard
ing it as a distinct endorsement of
German Imperialism, and, therefore,
of the highest importance and dis
quieting and especially to Great Bri-
tain and France. The Figaro alone
combats that view, being of the opin-
ion that the desertion of the Social
lists in favor Of the Liberal parties
would not have been possible if the
latter had not recently clearly mani
tested a desire for a less personal
form of governments consideration
with which the government must
reckon hereafter.
