EARLIER TELEGRAMS.

THE HOME ELECTIONS

London, Dec. 2. Eleven women were detented yesterday, including the Labourite Miss Jessie Stephen by the Conservative. Major H. R. Cayzer, at Portsmouth. To-day's declarations opened sensationally with a Liberal gain at Basingstoke, shortly followed by the announcement that Miss Margaret Bondfield had gained Northampton for Labour in a triangular fight, the Rt. Hon. Mr. C. A. McCurdy, ex-Coalition Liberal Whip. being bottom of the pill. Capt. W. G. A. Ormsby-Gore, the Under-Secretary for the Colonies, has been re-elected.

Mr. J. R. Cynes, learning of his election for the seventh time. declared that the result indicated that the Labour Party before log would not be H. Majesty's Opposition, but His Majesty's Govern

ment.

Mr. Churchill stated that whatever might be the consequences he would never associate himself with the violent movement of the left or the extreme reaction, of the Right. He was certain from the results that Protection was broken in pieces.

Mr. Asquith, hudly cheered, stated that Paisley was the im pregnable citadel of Liberalism and the Liberals all over the coun try were routing both Protection and Socialism.

The Conservatives admit a degree of disappointment at the first day's results, especially the adverse turnover, which was accentuated not only in Manchester, but Lancashire generally. Nevertheless. 350 results remain to be announced, a large proportion of them is county districts traditionally Conservative, where the Government supporters profess condesce they have strengthened their hold by the poller of agricultural subsidy.
