Labor Party 185; Liberals 148; other parties 10, Thus in the new House the Government will be in the minority in the neighborhood of ninety votes as against the combined vpposition parties.These figures, however, may vary somewhat, according as different compilers regard scattered raem- bers as belonging to one or another of the big parties.Will Probably Resign.It is understood that Premier Baldwin has summoned a meeting of the Cabinet for Monday to consider the situatio nand that a meeting of the Conservative party to debate its next step and possibly to elect à new leader to replace Mr.Baldwin, will be held in the course of the coming week, an It ia generally held that Mr.Baldwin, whose policy the country has rejected, wiil resign and that, In any case, owing to the unseating of several of the ministers reconstruction of the Government is unavoidable unless.As seems extremely likely the whole Cabinet should resign.The moral of the general elections which have resulted na disastrously for the government of Premier Raldwin is that the British people are stiil, as they were in 1308, convinced supporters of free trade.The fate which has come upon the Conservative party so moon after it discarded the coalition leadership of David Lloyd George, resulted primarily from the free trade convictions of the people, but also partly to a number of other attendant circumstances.The first of these circumstances is that the party itself was divided on the wisdom of choosing the nlank of proteetion upon which to challenge a new mandate from the country, since, judging from the experience of 1808, there wan every proapect of a repetition of the disaster which overtook the party when it trod a similar path pointed out by Joseph Chamberlain.No other possible policy, other than that of protection, could have heen nelected with A greater prospect of reuniting the Liberal party and bring to the Liberal side the surpassing talents of David Lloyd George in electioneering and In the political game generally, acenrding (6 astute political observers.No Achtevement To Ita Credit.The second circumstances was, says the observer, the fact that the Baldwin government in ita year in office had no anale leginlative achievement to lta credit to recommend it to popular favor and moreover it had shown much weakness In its foreign policy, en murh so that it even had been nmmerted that the recent concessions in the reparations problem made by M.Poincare had as their motive a desire to in- tence the British elections and keep Mr.Baldwin in power because It wan feared if the Liberal or Labor party obtained the reins Poincare would And either of thems parties much harder to deal with.Resentment of Labor Party.~The resentment felt by the Labor Paryt at Mr.BaMwin'a tactics constitute the third circumstance.Laber alleged that the Premier's tac- ties had an their object the springing of a quick succession of 2lec- tions with the aim of exhausting the Labor Party's attenuated election funds and thereby giving advantage to the wealthier rivals of the party, The four circumstance was the women's vote which in believed to] have been given with much great- ar unanimity than ever hefore in a determination to prevent at any coat a possible rise In the prices of commodities.The history of the circumstances which led Mr.Baldwin and his col- | leagues to adopt the policy which has proved a millstone around their tecke atill remain somewhat of a mystery.it i= helleved, however, that Mr.Baldwin himself never ; contemplated such a hurried ap-| peal to the country but was driven to it by the extremists of his party.One curious bit of speculation which has been advanced in some quarters is that the decision was made to forestall David Lloyd \u2018George, on the supposition that Mr.Lloyd George during his tour In America had been imbued with protectionist ideas.Barely Escaped Complete Defeat.Whatever the genesis of the pol- ley, the fact remains that the government has barely escaped cum- plete defeat and will enter the new parliament In a minority against the combined vote of the Liberal und Labor parties, instead of, as in the last parliament, with a majority of seventy over all the other parties combined.The Conservatives still will be the largest single party in the House but it ls inconceivable that they now can propose a tariff bill, even should they decide to meet the House of Commons as a government.Mr.Baldwin presumably will hold a meeting of his cablnet before deciding on his next step.The sieuation opens up the most perplexing and extraordinary set of alternatives ever experienced in British politics, which most llkely wlll have to be solved by another general election in the near\u2019 future.Coalition Secms Unavoidable.For the time being the British Parliament is committed to the group system which prevails in European countries, and none of the three political parties is likely to obtain a majority large enough to enable it to form and carry on à stable government.Thus, as much an the British people -disiike cuali- tions, there seems to be no other solution of the present situation in sight.Mr.Baldwin possibly may elect to carry on his government by avoidance of any controversial subject, din the hope of securing support from some portion of the Liberal members; but the\" genera) impression ia that he will decide to throw down the reins of government and hand over his dificult tank to the next strongest party namely, the Laborites.Labor Party as a Government.The belief prevails that the Labor Party will not be anxious to form a government under the existing conditions in parliament, where It would likely at any moment to meet defeat at the hands of a combination of the Conservatives and the Liberals for it is well known that there is almost horites and the Liberals as between: the Laborites and the Conservatives Among the possible alternatives of the immediate future are: Firat, a coalition between the Conservatives and ldberals.In some quartess this ts thought to be possible through the resignation of Mr.Baldwin and the placing of the formation of a new Conservative government In the hands of some statesman like the Earl of Derby.Secretary for War, who favors free trade and might be supponed to be able to secure support from the liberals to prevent the advent of a labor government.Liberal-Iabor Coalition.Second a Coalition between the liberals and the Laborites.Thin is also supported by some people as à not impossible development.It would be conditional, however, on the willingness of the Liberal leaders to serve under a Labor Premier and would mean the temporary dropping of some of the extreme planks in the Laborite platform, like a capital levy and the nationulizsation of Industries.Though such a development is considered rather unlikely, ft le thogught it might, If H.H.Asquith, Mr.Lioyd George and other former Ministers were willing to take office under J, Ramsay Mac- Donald, the Labor lender, aa Premier be preferred hy the Iabor leaders to taking the rink of another expensive general election in the tmmediate future.The present elections were undertaken by labor with very sparse funds, and their campaign was made pomible only through collec.\\ Sitk Handbags from England.Maison Blanche xn.Corner Chauveau Ave.and Fabrique St.A gift every woman likes to as! much antagonism between the la-;

MEETING Very Little Hope Of Escaping The Double Liability is Entertained © | LIQUIDATORS MESSAGE ; \u2014 Over 60 Per Cent.Of The $2,000,000 Liability Would Be Uncollectable Toronto, Dec.T\u2014The shareholders of the Home Bank can have no hope of escaping the double Mability unless they can persuade the Federal Government to come to their rescue.That was the mes- mage which G.T.Clarkson, lquld- ator, presented this afternoon before a gathering of about [fifty stockholders who met in Massey Hal! with the aim of taking any possible steps for their protection.The greatest point at issue war whether or not the shareholders would likely be called upon for the double lability, and Mr.Clarkson pointed out that he had no option whatever in the matter and that either himself, or some other person who may be appointed as permanent liquidator by the court, would he obliged to take the course provided by the Bank Act and by the courts for the collection of as much money as possible to clear up the claims of the depositors and other creditors.The point came up while the shareholders were dis- cumming whether or not they would appoint inspectors to assist the 1l- quidator in addition to the inspectors to be appointed by the creditors.Liability Will Have to be Collected.\u201cIn my opinion the full double Mability will have to be collected if possible,\u201d Mr.Clarkson stated, \u201cthat would mean an attempt to collect the full $2,000,000, though I consider that 60 per cent of it would be uncollectable.Immediately following the appointment of the permanent liquidator it can be shown to the court that there is no funds to meet the claims of the creditors, and the next step will be the application for the enforcement of the double îlability clause.The lUquidators would have no option in the matter.They would not be performing thelr duty if they did not take that step and any failure to do so would leave them open to a charge of neglect of duty.The liquidator is appointed to realize as much as possible for the creditors.and he must take every possible step in that direction.\u201d Not As a Christmas Present.\u201cHardly am soon as that,\u201d Mr.Clarkson replied.\u201cIt is more apt to be a New Year's gift.\u201d This brought up & number of questions One of them was to By Appointmunt A Chappie Coat The ideal Gift for the Sportswoman This new type of

who is a depositor be allow- the question was, would a share- | holder who is a depositor be allaw- ed to deduct the amount of his de-| posit from the douhle liability or: would he be obliged to lose both amounts?Mr.Clarkson's statement was that the shareholders must stand on their own feet, and the depositors must stand on theirs.|The two transactions must remain separate, which would mean that the depositors-shareholder would he in w particularly unpleasant position for not only would he lose his double liabllity but he would doubtless get little more than the 25 per cent of his deposits.Some people had gone about saying that in the end thers would be from 70 to 80 for the depositors, but that \u2018was out of the question as Mr.Clarkaon viewed the condition of the hank's affaire.In view of that, the gathering was strongly of the opinion that it ia the duty of the Federal Government to step in and bring some relief to the shareholders who are of Finance.If there had heen a.quate inspection during the years the bank was operating, or if attention has been pald to representations which were made to the Qovernment the condition of the bank might have been discovered long ago and there would have been lens suffering and inconvenience.\u201d Petition Would Be Uscless, Senator A.MeCall did not think anything could be gained by presenting such a petition to the

MELPS.When Frost Comes Get Your Bedding Into the Open Air (By WANDA BARTON) There are some points in our Fall housecleaning that cannot be covered until frost puts the right amount of crispness into the air and lively breezes get at the garments hung on the line.This ta the time to hang out our pillows, planing them securely, and let them stay as long as the sun shines upon them, until they are puffed to a prodigious sise and smell fresh and sweet.It is a good idea to beat them gently from time to time dur- Ing their breeze bath to make sure that every feather comes in for its share ot cleansing.While the plliows are swestening the mattresses should be beaten with a spat, brushed with a brush- broom and placed on table or garden bench covered with papers.Turn them from time to time while; they freshen in the sun.No matter how many vacuum baths they may have had, there is nothing like a good sun bath and a brisk, frosty breese to rejuvenate the hair.Ot course the blankets were, or should have been, done earlier in the Fall, for frost and wet blankets.do not agres, though dry biankets and quilts may be aired.While the bedding is on the line In an excelient time to clean the bedrooms and wash the beds for thelr reception.If there are any * x % spots on the pillows or mattresaes, a little laundry starch dusted on, then moistened with wale, usu |} ly removes them.Allow the paste, to dry.then brush it off with a surf] brush-broom.Repeat it the spot is not quite gone.If it is very obstinate, try making the paste of atarch and ammonia.To keep the sitken puff fresh and clean, cover ft with a slip of fine cheesecloth, the hems of which may be coarsely feather-stitched to dress it up a bit.When the silp becomes solled It can be easily washed and.quickly dried and ironed, and it saves the ellk puft from | setting eolled.In cases where new ticking must be put over plilowa the simplest way to do so is to make up the new ticking and leave a nix-inch opening in the middie of one end of the case.Then rip the old plilow In the rame place and haste the two oneningn together.Work the Conthera from the old into the new care hy gently squeezing and puah- ing.This
