London, Dec, 5.-The British general
elections began in earnest Saturday
when voting was held for sixty-eight
contested seats in sixty.four constitu-
encies. At midnight the result Of sixty.
three elections was known. These showed
seven Unionist and three Liberal gains
giving net Unionist gain Of four
This by no means justifes the Con-
seyative hopes, freely expressed during
the day, Of wiping out the coalition ma
iorityi but If this rate Of Unionist gains
is kept up it will mean gain OF about
forty seats, reducing the coalition major
ity from 1874 TO a.
Arguing from the speed at which the
constituencies changed their minds in
the last few days, the rate should rather
increase during the coming fortnight,
over which the elections will be spread
On the whole, although a Unionst
landslide is not indicated, that party
may be fairly satisfied with the result
thus far. They have been and they still
are confident of virtual if not an actual
victory Many who a couple of days ago
only hoped to reduce the government
condition majority TO such an extent as
to make it impossible for it to carry
out any great constitutional change hope
to-day for an actual Unionist majority
small, but still a majority.

GUILTY OF MURDER
Jury at Greenfield Gives Verdict In
First Degree After Being Out
Five Hours.

Greenfield Dec. 5.-Silas N. Phelps Of
Monroe was Saturday night found gull
tn OF murder in the first degree in caus.
ing the death Of Deputy Sheriff Emmett
r. Haslins Of Charemont last June,
Haskins went to the Phelps home to
arrest Phelps on a charge Of stabbng
William Penman and was shot as he
mounted the stairs to the attic where
his quarry was in hiding.
The jury returned the verdict after
five hours of deliberation, during which
time they once returned for instruc-
tons as to what constituted the diff
ference between first and second degree
murder. Judge Schofeld quoted the SUI
preme court decision covering the point
and the jury filed out Of the court room.
Two hours later the verdict was found.
As the twelve men who had decided
his fate walked solemnly into the court
room, Phelps watched them closely but
showed no sign Of emotion Even the
announcement that he had been adjudged
guilty of murder in the first degree had
no apparent effect, and it was not until
some time later, when his wife went
to bis side, that he broke down
As soon as the verdict was announced,
Attorney William A. Davenport, repre-
senting Phelps. asked the court to al.
low until January 2 for the fling Of
exceptions. His request was granted.
Phelps was then led away to jail.
