 WIN PLACES IN THE

DUBLIN, Jan. 23.-Preliminary re. turns in the municipal elections in Dublin show successes for the Sin Feil candidates. Three Sim Fein commoners were elected on the first count. including Alderman Tom Kel- ley. now in prison in London. who obtained more than three times the necessary vote.
 Lord Mayor O'Neill. whose term expired, although running as an in. dependent candidate, scofed record poll due to the fact, 1t was said, that he supported Sim Feifi candidates in other sections.
 Results from the country districts of Ireland indicate that the prepon- derance of the vote went to the Sinn Fein adherents and it is considered certain that the party, together with labor, will have considerable major ity outside of Ulster.
 Contestants in Ulster between Unionists and Nationailsts were close in all sections. These parties united to oppose the Sim Feiners, several of whom were elected.
