south, Wednesburg and two seats in
Bath.
The Liberals won Manchester, north
west; Darlington and Grimsby
The labor gain was in East Man
chester.
The results of the polling tend to con-
firm the forecast that the Liberals will
retain control of the government with
a greatly reduced majority.
The Unionists have gained an en-
couraging number of seats, although
less than the tWenty-nine which they
expected to take away from the Lib
erals out of the seventy-four balloted
for.
The popular vote goes strongly
against the Liberals. The members
of that party who hold seats won to-
day by majorities ranging from 30 tc
go per cent below their majorities in
1906, except in a few boroughs where
special conditions figured in the cam
paign. The popular votes polled by
the Liberals for the twelve London
seats show a stronger hold on power
than in the provinces.
Win in Boroughs
The majority of the London bor-
oughs were labor districts. OF these
the Unionists carried five, three being
captured from the Liberal column, but
by small margins.
Manchester and Birmingham give
heavy Unionist gains. Birmingham
has been strongly Conservative, largely
the result of Joseph Chamberlain S
crusade for protection, and today the
Unionists carried the city solidly by
increased majorities, nearly 5000 larger
than in 1906.
In Manchester the Unionists in
creased their votes, for while the Lib
erals still have five of the six seats
the Liberal majorities were decreased
nearly 5000.
The most sweeping change in London
was in the Fulham borough, where the
middle class population went enthu-
siastically for tariff reform, giving w
Hayes Fisher, Unionist, a majority OF
2O0o.
DeVonport, where the big navy issue
was predominant, wiped out the Lib
eral majority and returned two I'm
ionists by 500, Sir j. jackson and Sir
C. Kinloch Cooke. Sir Henry Norman
Liberal journalist, who is well known
in America, and recently appointed
assistant postmaster general, was de-
feated at WolVerhampton, South, by
a small majority
In order to retain his place in the
cabinet he will be nominated for an
other borough.
Noted Men Defeated
Waldorf Astor and Sir Fl. Mortimer
Durand, the former ambassador to the
United States, who contested two Ply
mouth seats as Unionists, were de-
feated, but cut down that city's Lib
eral majority from 1867 to 946.
Davidson Daziel, Unionist, promot-
er and at one time conspicuous in Wall
street, turned out j. H. SeaVerns, a
Liberal, and former American, from
his seat for the BriXton division of
Lambeth.
w. Joynson- Hicks, the Unionist, who
beat Winston Spencer Churchill in the
Manchester by election of 1908 by 494
votes, loses his seat to Sir G. Kent,
Liberal, by 1888.
Rt. Hon. c. Wyndham. who will be
governoP-g general of Canada if the

majority.

votes from Sir Gilbert Parker in the
