The vacancy in East Denbigh was filled on Wednesday by

the return of the Liberal candidate, the figures being :—Mr. E. G. Hemmerde (L.), 5,917 ; Mr. A. G. Bosoawen (U.), 3,126 ; Liberal majority, 2,791. In 1900 and at the last General Elec- tion Mr. Moss (L.) was returned unopposed, and in 1897, when 1,020 fewer votes were polled, the Liberal majority was 2,327. The result makes no difference in the balance of parties ; but, in view of the action of the Labour Party at Cocker- month, a reduced majority was expected.
