A bye-election for north Edinburgh was necessary when J. A. Clyde was appointed lord-president of the Court of Session. Here is the result: Ford (Coalition Unionist) 9,944; Runciman (Liberal) 8,469; Major Graham Pole (Labour) 3,808.

The result was,-according to the doctor, that only a dozen men left their quarters in a dirty condition.

Why the crew was placed in quar. antine is something of a mystery. A case of smallpox developed after the ship arrived at Mare island, but the men were not quarantined until several days after the illness was dis covered. Workmen said that the Government employes at the Mare Island Navy Yard refused to work on the vessel while the polyglot and vari-coloured crew was aboard. The smallpox case furnished a convenient reason for sending the members of

the crew to the Angel island quar antine station until the boat, was ready to sail..
