Pollings in London and Manches-
ter Will Give the Keynote Of
Situation in South and
North England
ELECTIONS COVER TWO WffKS
Contests Have Aroused Intense inter-
est and Excitement. So far Fifty
Five of the Members Have
Been Chosen.

London, Dec. 3.-Actual voting I'm
the general election began today un-
der circumstances of intense interest
and excitement. The pollings. which
opened this morning, included ten
seats for London, five for Manchester
and a number of widely separated ru-
raj constituencies. Both here and at
Manchester the two elements are max
ing their most determined efforts, as
results in London are expected To give
the Keynote of the situation in the
south of England, while those at Man
chester are looked upon as indicating
sentiment in the north.
The voting. which began today will
continue during the next two weeks
The voting today is, however, of un-
usual Importance, as the sixty mine
constituencies, including ten from
London, form one-tenth of the aggre-
gate membership of the Commons.
The total membership of the Commons
is $40.
There were fifteen uncontested re-
suits yesterday, which, with sixty nine
contested results today. will give an
aggregate of eighty-four elections
from which some indication can be
formed as to the drift of the strug-
gle.
The county of London consists OF
sixty constituencies returning each
one member, excepting the old city OF
London, which returns two. II is
among these sixty constituencies that
ten are being selected today. the 9TH
ers being chosen later.
In Manchester there are six consti-
tuencies, of which five are being
chosen today Other elections going
on today are in widely separated out
| lying constituencies.
Early this afternoon forty unop-
posed returns had been made. which.
with the fifteen unopposed nominal
tions of yesterday, brought the aggre-
gate of members elected up TO 55.
With these figures the state of the
parties now stand: Government coali-
tion-Liberals, sixteen; Labor mem
bers, none; Irish Nationalists. five.
Observation-Disclosures thirty-four.

Jury by reason of voting at such cleo
tion. because the election and pro-
ceedings were void. No one had any
authority to administer an oath to the

such oath was administered, IL is inn

on such an oath. Further, IL is doubt
full in any event whether notary pub

Macdonald Raises Question.
Prosecuting Attorney Macdonald
said that I'm his opinion there never had
been more fiagrant case of attempted
violation of the election laws. Contin-
uing he said the defendants did not
know the circumstances of the law as
TO whether the election was illegal oi
not. and were willing TO vote illegally
He said he was satisfied that the elec.
tian was void and invalid. The onl,
question. he stated. was whether the
defendants were guilty of perjury. Un'
der the testimony produced he wal
doubtful about tris and asker foran ad'
journment until next Wednesda,
morning. He requested Attorne,
O'Brien to file a brief by that time
stating he would. do likewise.
The case attracted widespread Mt
tention, Justice Jackola's court room
being crowded. The defendants ar

insignificant run Of cattle, there being
practically nothing in the way Of beef
ever, have been very liberal, footing up
$500 head or some LOCO head more than
week ago and 10000 more than year
ago. Supplies OF cornfed beeves have been
increasing, but the demand for them has
not been very extensive OF late owing to
the demoralized condition Of the beef mar
kets down east Reports from eastern
ted with beef and practically the only de-
pendable outlet is for the cheaper grades,
so that local dress beef men have been
making strong effort to get the cornfsd
cattle lower. Values have ruled very un-

quotations are generally 5Oq6Oc lower than
two weeks ago The best cattle here this
week brought sos, and the bulk of the
native beeves are selling around S6.Ood65O
The tone to the market at the close was
decidedly weak.
Cows and heifers have also met with
very uneven demand, but closing quota
tons ars not so very much different from
those OF week ago. AS a rule the demand
for butcher stock has been broader and
the market steadier than for beef steers
owing to the fact that the market Is ABB
sorbing the butcher grades OF beef more
rapidly than the higher priced stuff. Out

Business in stockers and feeders has been

SHEEP-Nothing of consequence was re-
ceived in the way OF sheep or lambs today
and the trade remained unchanged.
In point of prices the week has been a
rather uncertain one from the start. Re
ceipts were larger than expected, about
10000 head showing up since last Satur-
day, but the demand at no stage has been
very active. The western country sent in
the big bulk of offerings and, as might be
expected at this time OF the year, quality
has been generally common and even
Very few fat grass lambs arrived, but de-
spite this fact, values are closing around
1b625c lower for the week, burdensOme
supply of natives in the east making pos
sible cheaper cost. Good rangers are hardly
quotable over $3.50 with well-finishcd fed
animals, Of which receipts have been mea-
ger, at small premiums
Fat sheep, while slow throughout, show
no appreciable change, closing steady to
possibly a little lower in spots. The e
taU channels for mutton are less easily
cloEged, of course, and this condition ac-
counts for the broader demand for this
class of stock. Choice fat wethers are
ouotable at $500 or better.
Feeder trade dropped in deep rut during
opening days and failed to improve as the
week advanced. It has been a dbaggy deal
for sellers at figures weak TO sharply
