London, Dec. 30.—(By the Asso
Sji ciated Press)—A remarkable feature
Sj of the elections for the new parlia
3? hient is the enormous majorities re
ih cefcved by many of the winning oan
Se didates and a dearth of very 6mall
majorities.
Under the provisions of the new
(j,franchise act, every candidate who
cE fails to obtain one-eighth of the votes
c3 polled in his constituency forfeits his
deposit of 150 pounds sterling. More
than 130 candidates are victims of
this rule.
I
It is difficult to compare the results
of this election with that of the last
one, owing to the numerous rear
rangements of constituencies under
the last reform act, but a comparison
between the country areas as a whole
shows that London has gone almost
solid for the coalition. Only 'three
Independent Liberals were returned
and the two Laborites returned are
both coalitionists.
The returns in Yorkshire are no less
astonishing. Of the 56 members from
Yorkshire. 26 are coalition Unionists,
18 coalition Liberals, two members or
the National Democratic party which
supports the coalition, are discharged
soldiers' and sailors' representa
tives eight are labor members and
only one is an Independent Liberal.
In Lancashire, the sixty-six mem
bers returned do not include a single
Independent Liberal.
Even in Scotland the number of In
dependent Liberals returned can be
'numbered on the fingers of one hand.
Coalition leaders claim that the two
principal factors that contribute^ to
their triumph are the votes of The
women and soldiers. The former
made the majority secure and the
soldiers' vote, according to one leader,

or
came later as a tidal wave in favor of
Lloyd George.
The twelve divisions of Birming
ham returned coalitionists, the only
woman candidate in the city being at
the bottom of the poll and forfeited
her deposit. This forfeiture of deposit
was also the fate of three other worn
candidates, including the only
woman candidate in Scotland.
Most of the ballots cast out were
those of soldiers who wrote across
them such remarks as "send us home
and we will vote," or "we have no in
formation about the candidates."
The net result of the election is
summed up in today's papers as a per
sonal triumph for Premier Lloyd
George in the disappearance of the
two great parties, the Liberals and
Irish Nationalists. The newspapers
without exception emphasize that the
election is not merely a great triumph
but a great opportunity for LJoyd
George, as the country insists on th(
carrying out of a vast program of so
cial reform.
In this connection it is pointed out
that labor largely voted coalition in
the expectation that a policy agree
able to labor would be pursued.
George Nicoll Barnes, Labor mem
ber of the war cabinet, in a statement
issued in Glasgow, expressed the opin
ion that the Labor party had lost a
great chance by truckling to the pa
cifists and Bolshevists. Minister of
Food Ciynes, in a statement, says
his election tour of the centers of in
dustry convinces him that labor can
didates had aroused great enthusiasm.
The elections, in his opinion, proved
that labor was a living force which
would not be merely a lever in parlia
ment to secure reforms, but a safety
valve guarding the country against
dangerous explosions.
Complete Returns.
London, Dec. 2!).— (By The Asso
ciated Tress.)—Complete returns for
the election of the new parliament
give the following results:
Coalition Unionists, 334.
Coalition Liberals, 127.
Coalition Laborites, 10.
Unionists, 46.
Asquithian Liberals, 37.
Laborites, 65.
National Party, 2.
Independents, 5.
Socialists, 1.
Sinn Feiners, 73.
Irish Nationalists, 7.
All coalition with the Unionists and
National party may be regarded
roughly as supporting Lloyd George.
The only opposition will be formed by
the Asquithian Liberals, Laborites
and Independents.

WEATHER REPORTS
RAISE CORN PRICES
Chicago, Dec. .30.—Prospect of un
settled weather tended today to lift
the corn market. Fears were ex
pressed that rain or snow would lead
to further restriction of the crop
movement. Offerings proved light
and shorts covered freely. Opening
prices which ranged l-2c off to 2c
advance with January $1.42 3-4 to
$1-43 1-8 and May $1.36 1-2 to $1.37
were followed by decided gains all
around.
Oats took an upward swing with
corn. After opening a shade down to
l-8@l-4c higher with May 70c the
market scored a moderate general
ascent.
Provisions were more active and
higher.
After nearby deliveries had touched
a new high price level for the season,
profit taking by holders brought
about something of a reaction. The
close was unsettled at the same as
Saturday's finish to 2 1-4'cents higher,
with January $1.43 7-8 to 1.44 and
May $1.36 1-2 to 5-8.
Placing of foreign orders hero at
relatively high prices for meats oper
ated as a decided bullish factor.

STOCK MARKET IS
UNDERMINED TODAY
New York, Dec. 30.—Extensive of
ferings of high grade transportations,
including Pennsylvania, Canadian Pa
cific, Chicago and Northwestern, St.
Paul, Baltimore and Ohio, at extreme
reactions of 1 to 1 1-2 points, served
more than anything el6e to under
mine tho stock list during the busy
morning in which transaction's ap
proximated half a million shares.
Shippings, oils and minor specialties
also broke 1 to 2 l-'2 points. Steels
offered some of the resistance to pres
sure and General Electric, American
Car and American Can were dis
tinctly strong. At midday shippings
and rails rallied briskly under lead
of marine preferred and Reading.
Trading in Liberty bonds at moderate
advances again assumed enormous
proportions.
Shippings and rails constituted the
irregular features at the active open
ing of today's stock market, forfeiting
much of last Saturday's belated rally,
while steels, coppers and several of
the prominent equipments were firm
to strong. United States steel assert
ed its usual leadership, gaining a
large fraction on its first transaction
of 3,500 shares, the preferred stock
advancing a point.' Utilities were un
certain, Brooklyn Transit showing
further heaviness, but American
Telephone, Columbia Gas and Ohio
Gas strengthening.
The midday rally carried marine
preferred a point over last week's
final price, other shippings gaining 1
to 3 points. Utilities also rebounded
but rails, steels and specialties made
little progress, while Liberty 4th
4 V4's fell to the new low quotation
of 94.
