CHURCHILL DEFEATED

Manchester April 24--The northwest division
of Manchester by the heaviest poll cast IN
twenty years to-day reversed its verdict OF
1906 and by a plurality Of 429 votes unseated
as its Member of Parliament Winston Spencer

Three candidates stood for election. and the re-
suit follows:
" Joynson Hicks Unionst. -........... 5tls d

The defeat Of Mr. Churchill is a crushing blow

young minister. which is bound TO have
marked influence in several other impending
bv-eIections. There Will be difficulty in
finding for Mr. Churchill safe seat elsewhere
Prior TO 1906 the northwest division seat was
held consistently by the Conservatives
Among the many Influences and cross currents
al work in this extraordinary contest it is noted
that Mr. Asquith. for some as Yet unexplained
reason. omitted to send TO Mr. Churchill a let
ter wishing him success, as is customary, though
he sent 4 letter TO Walter Runciman- President
of the Board Of Education. who on Thursday
contested and won the seat for Dewsbury by
ma ioritv of l4S votes. This gave the Jnlonlsts
a chance TO insinuate that the premier elIheF
disannroyed of Mr ChurchiTs tactics in pleds-
ING the government on the Irish Home Rule and
other questions or that he would not be un"illIns
