OppOSlIlOu JldJOilIJb oo'
The Liberals lost ground practically
in every province of the Dominion.
Where they won, their majorities were
small. Where the Conservatives won,
their majorities were tremendous.
Ontario, the leading province of Can
ada, declared almost unanimously
against the administration and reci-
procity.
Robert L. Borden, leader of the Con-
sentative party, shortly will become
the prime minister of Canada. He
will be supported in parliament by a
working majority of members far
more than ample for his purposes.
Past Not to Be Introduced.
The government defeat means that
the Fielding-Knox reciprocity agree
ment, ratified by the American con-
gress in extra session, will not be in
troduced when the twelfth parliament
assemblies next month, and that a re-
vised basis of trade with the United
States, looking to closer commercial
relations, will not be possible in the
immediate future. The Conservatives
are committed to a policy of trade
expansion within the empire and a
closed door against the United States.
Although reelected in two constit-
uencies in Quebec, the defeat of the
Liberal party also means the retire
ment from public life of Sir Wilfrid
Laurier, who for nearly two decades
no hn IF 10
Dominion. Several times during the
bitter campaign the venerable pre-
mier said that defeat of his party at
the polls meant the end of his career;
that he never would consent to lead
minority in opposition to a Con-
sentative government.
A Liberal membership of So from
Quebec was cut down to SO, which,
taken alone, seriously threatened the
supremacy of the party But it was
in Ontario that the Conservatives won
their greatest victories.
Opposition Sweeps All Before.
Spurred on by appeals to patriotism
and the cry that reciprocity was the
entering wedge for annexation, the
Conservatives swept nearly every
thing before them. Ontario, which in
the last parliament was represented
by IS Liberals and 81 Conservatives,
will send delegation to the next
composed Of IS Liberals and Is Con-
servatives. A notable feature of the
defeat was the opposition's capture
Of two hitherto Liberal seats in Sas-
katchewan.
Landslide Is Unexpected.
The landslide was not expected by
either side. The Liberals were con-
fident that they would be returned by
the people with an increased ma
jority, for they believed that reci-
procity would be most acceptable to
the Canadian electors. While the
Conservatives claimed that they would
have a majority, they did not expect
that it would be so large or that the
general verdict of the country would
be given so decisively against the
government.
They feared that reciprocity would
prove popular with the farmers Of
Ontario and the farmers and fisher
men of the maritime provinces, and,
while confident that they would win
the cities, they were dubious as to the
result in rural constituencies. How
ever, in Ontario especially, the agri-
cultural vote went almost s.lidly
against reciprocity, and in the mari
time provinces it did not prove to be
the popular issue expected.

AS result of q decision rendered
this afternoon by Judge Mullen, OF the
Hastings Court. Carter r. Bishop the
former cashier, Will not be called to
trial tomorrow on indictment No 8,
charging him with making false re-
port of the financial condition OF the

Messrs WILCOX and Wilcox, counsel
for Mr.. Bishop, moved the court to
duash the indictment. on the ground
: that the statute providing for bank
reports Is unconstitutional. because
being criminal, il is incomplete in it.

further 20 be legislated upon by tho
Corporation Commission
Counsel for Mr.. Bishop also entered
demurrers to the indictment OH the
grounds. first. that it does not state
the character OF the bank in question:
second, that no allegation is made that
the corporation had promulgated the
rule under which the bank statement
was called for: third, failure of the in
dictment 10 set out the report IN full:
fourth, that 1t does not specify the
particulars in which the items in the
report were false.
All Of these points We're fully and
ably argued affirmativcly by counsel
for Mr.. Bishop and in opposition BIZ
IL. n.
The argument was attentively heard
by large assemblagc OF members of
the bar of the city, including the full
array OF counsel for Charles Hall
Davis.
Judge Mullen overruled the motion
to quash the indictment, and over
ruled also all the points OF the dcmur-
rer, except the last which he sustain
ed on the ground that it was not par
ucular enough in its statements OF
{ facts: The result OF this decision is
that Mr.. Bishop will not be brought
to trial tomorrow, MS had been ar
ranged, and that the entire bank ar
fairs will probably be brought before
another grand jury for action and for
new indictments. Meanwhile all the
new ones are found. AZ least such is
the report to-day. Another grand jury
