Government Apologizes for
Attack on Loyal Croard.
BERLIN, Jan. 26. According to the
iTLtesf returns of the Reichstag election
held yesterday received by the Wolfe
Bureau, the Socialists have gained one
and lost 20 seats; the Conservative par
ties havo gained nine and lost six' seats:
the Clericals have sained two and loot
four; the National Liberals have gained
-nine and lost nine : trie Radical irrouiMi
have sained five and lost two; the Poles
nave guinea two; me Guelphs have lost
three and the Agrarians and Anti-Semitic
KT-oups have Brained two and lost rive
eeata each.
Many Second Ballols Asked.
The SocialtntB have entered demands
for 75 reballots. . From these they are
likely to elect 19 members, hence their
strength in the new ReichstAe will prob
ably be below 60. The Olerlcals have
demanded about 30 reballots and have
chances of winning enough seats to re-
tain thnlr full strpmrth tn tvA maw
The two Conservative parties have de
als more than 60, the radical groups
and the Anti-Semites, the Agrarians, the
Koles. the Alsatians and others a total
pr 23.
The Socialists probably have increased
their total vote by from 10 to' 15 per cent.
Kaiser Congnitulates Chancellor.
' Emperor William today congratulated
Chancellor von Buelow on the soundness
of his Judgment In dissolving: the Reichs
tag and appealing: to the country on an
important question of national policy.
The Emperor maintained throughout the
electoral campaign a position of constitu-
tional reserve. He did not attempt by
word or act to Influence the result, yet he
was intensely interested, especially re
garding the manner in which the country
would treat the colonial question and
how the Socialists would emerge from the
conmct.
After his visit to Von Buelow his maj
esty took his usual walk in the Thier-
garten, and then returned to the Chancel
lor's Valace to discuss the latest returns.
The Emperor came out of the palace
smiling and In the best of humor, fcim-
peror William will be 48 years old to
morrow, and some one remarked that the
country had .given him a tine birthday
present "in checking the growth of Re
publican Socialism."
Von Buelow May Sow Retire.
Von Buelow's personal position with the
Emperor and the country is regarded as
having been greatly fortified. Tho Chan
cellor will probably be able to go before
Parliament with a degree of power he
had not previously possessed. Although
the Clerical Center party has gained as
many seats as it lost, it will return to the
Reichstag "tamed," as one of the Chan
cellor's friends said, and willing to co
operate with the government. What the
Socialists have lost has been largely re
gained by the National Liberals and Rad
ical Liberals, thus giving the manufac
turing and commercial interests increased
representation in Parliament.
Von Buelow may select this period of
his career, when Ills position as Cha$
cellor is secure and his reputation en
hanced, to voluntarily retire. His health
appears to be excellent, but he works
with such ardor in affairs of state that
It Is said the Princess von Buelow wishes
him to give up his office and not Invite
another illness.
A semi-official expression of regret at
the threatening and dispersing of the
peaceful crowds which gathered last night
In front of the Crown Prince s palace
singing national hymns in honor of the
victory of the 'Imperialists at the polls
was published this afternoon. The Minis
try of the Interior has ordered an In
vestigation of this misapplied xeal on
the part of the police, who treated the
Jubilators as mobs threatening the safety
of the Imperial family.
Work of Stay-at-Home Voters.
Both the newspaper analysts and the
party managers agree that the result of
the election was brought about by the
arousing of the stay-at-home voters.
Three million electors did not vote in
1803, and It was to this class that the
government made a special appeal.
The King of Saxony, who arrived here
today to congratulate the Emperor per
sonally on his birthday, ' telegraphed
Count von Hohenthal, Saxon Minister of
the Interior, his satisfaction, at the re
suit of the elections, saying:
"The old Saxon loyalty la still alive.
I hope this will be a good omen for the

. PARIS. Jan. 26. The Waterloo of the
German Socialists In the fteichstaer elec
tions yesterday Was a surprise to France,
and, while Emperor William's victory
was not particularly welcome, some of
the serious French papers manifest grati
fication at the check administered, to Bo-
cialism, to which their own government
is proving: more and more subservient.
The semi-official Temps, while it con
siders that tho question whence the gov
ernment will obtain a parliamentary ma
jority is atlll open, regards the elections
as evidence that the working classes of
Germany are at last turning from the
Idealism of the Marxists and dogmatic
collectivism, with the inevitable class war,
toward the attainment of realisable re
forms through the Liberal parties.
The Liberte takes a somewhat similar
view, saying: "The defeat of the best
organized Socialists In Europe marks an
Interesting: step, the defiance of the ex-
treme parties by the people, who are
waking to their true Interests."
CauHe or Socialise 1 -r- t?
LONDON, Jan. 26.-The Berlin corre-
spoa.de nt of the Daily Mail, in. discussing
the German elections, says that the revolt
against Socialism can only be attributed
to the tardy popular realization that the
party reeks with, hyoocris.v. while the ln-
lemai dissension as manifested at the an
nual congress has driven away thousand;
of voters who formerly supported tho
party as the best means of expressing
censure of the government. These voters
seem to have gone to the Radical party
PEASAXfsvGROW CONSERTATIVG
Bat Russian Workmen Elect Depu
ties From Extreme Left.
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 26.-The re-
suits of the elections for members of
the lower house of Parliament amonK
the .peasantry In 18 precincts show u.
strong conservative tendency, but this is
not proof that the final results will not
Klve predominance to the left party. In
fact, this is the opinion held In political
circles here, and it is conflrmed by the
result of the elections already concluded
among: tho working elements, who almost
universally havo voted the extreme left
ticket. "First degree" elections held . by
workmen and small peasant landown
ers In 23 - governments on Friday and
Saturday resulted In tho selection of
1231 delegates, of whom 500 belong to
the Risnt party. 458 to the Moderates.
35 to the Constitutional Democrats
and 23S to the Socialist party. The to
tal of 682 members elected by the

POPE FIXDS CAUSE OF JOV
Fall or Spanish Cabinet and German
Election Triumph for Him.
ROME Jan. 2S. Vatican authorities ex-
pressea the opinion today that the as
sumption of power In Spain by Premier
Maura at the head of the Conservative
Ministry, the success or the Center party
in Germany and the failure of the antf-
clerical movement in Italy were signifi
cant of the attitude In religious matters
of t ho countries nurroundlng France,
where the antl-clerlcal movement in
triumphing.
In this connection it Is significant also
that the Pope has ordered the celebra
tion of a te deura next Sunday In the
Austrian church here in honor of tho
anniversary of the birthday of Emperor
William of Germany- Such a ceremony
for a Protestant ruler it without prece-
dent, te duuras having been sung in the
past only on the occasion of the birth
days .of Ca.th.ollo sovereigns.

of the Russian government to withdraw
its troops -from Manchuria immediately
