HOME RULE PARTY WINS
IN THE ULSTER ELECTION

drafted into the city, but their services
were not often called into reatistion. The
election on this occasion was made more
interesting by the fact that both the
unonist and home rule candidates were
Protestant5. The Protestant and Cath
olic inhabitants Of Londonderry are al
most equally divided and by putting for
ward Mr.. Hogg as a candidate II was
foreseen that he would carry some of the
Protestant home rulers with him who
otherwise would have abstained from vot-
ing owing TO religious differences. An
nouncement of the polls result was fol-
lowed by extraordinary scenes. The pent
up excitement Of the popuiacc Was vented
In wild demonstrations. Shrieks. cheers
and Kisses broke loose. This was accom-
panied By firing OF revoivers. Red and
green handkerchiefs and Union Jacks
fluttered over the heads OF the crowd.
The nationalists sang "A Nation once
Again" to which the unionists responded
with Rule Britannia and God Save
the King" The police had 70 clear a
way and form an escort around Mr. Hogg
and Colonel Packenham while they were
on their way to their hotels. The rival
crowds of home rulers and unionists came
into contact once. There was stone
throwing aud the police were obliged to
charge with their clubs and disperse the
throngs.

\ story Is being sent from washing-

written into the new tariff law. and
there is also an element in Congress
