BEATTY IS “REGULAR DECISIVE VICTORY. New Parliament by Safe Majority Favors Conscription. Ottawa, Ont., Dec. 18.-—-Union goy- ernment has been returned and con- scription confirmed by the Canadian domestic vote, Karly returns received from all over Canada indicate that the government of Sir Kol Borden has been elect- ed to administer Canadian affairs for another five years, and that Sir Wil- frid Laurier is as definitely defeated as in the reciprocity election of 1911. Returns indicate that the French portion of Canada has gone heavily for Sir Wilfrid Laurier and English constituencies have returned men who will support the Union government measures and maintain Premier Bor- den in office. The vote has been very heavy everywhere and the majorities are very large. The soldier vote, which will not be ascertained for some days, will increase the already heavy major- ities of government members and will likely increase the number of govern ment supporters elected. Official returns announced shortly before midnight showed that with 16 districts to be heard from the Un ionists had won 128 seats and the opposition 87, with four seats de- ferred.

BENEFIT INCLUDES MOVIE COPYRIGHTS Chicago, Ill. Dec. 18.—Jess Wil- lard, champion heavyweight prize fighter, announced tonight that he would re-enter the prize ring for the benefit of the Red Cross. He declar- ed he would defend his title against any person anywhere and any time, the sole provision being that all of the receipts should go to the Red Cross. Willard said he preferred that a match be made for next spring so thae it could be held in the open air. He also declared he would manage his end of the arrangements himself in order that no part of the proceeds could be diverted from the purpose for which he planned. The champion will leave for Wash- { ington at once, he said to confer with officials of the department of justice to learn if there was any way in which moving pictures of the match could be shown legally, the receipts from the pictures also being pledged to the Red Cross. ‘I am ready to receive challenges myself from any fighter anywhere,” he said, “and if a match can be niade, I will go ahead on arrangements at once. It would serve better if it can be held when the weather will permit in open air exhibition as that is like- ly to increase the receipts.” JURY FINDS HARRIET VARNEY NOT GUILTY West Upton Nurse Vindicated of Murder of Wife of Her Former Paramour.
