Athens, Aug, 21 (R—Results of Synday’s parllamentary clections, ]whlch gave the republican parties 234 seats in the chamber of depu- ties against 16 to parties of royalist sympathies, are regarded as blasting any hope that the Greek people by popular consent ever will return to a monarchical rgrm of government. The election proved a great triumph for Premier Venizelos, who heads the liberal party. The liberals obtained 228 seats in the chamber, assuring them complete domination. The progressives obtained three and the independents three, both of these parties being aligned with the re- publicans. The voters elected 15 royalists to the chamber and the Pan-Galos party, grouped with the royalists, ob- tained one seat. The royalists thus lcse 100 scats, since in the last chamber they occupied 116, the re- publican parties holding 157, In Athens 19,066 votes were cast for liberal candidates and only 9. 362 for royalists. In Piraeus the figures were 9 for the liberals and 6,961 for the royalists, Panysti Tsaldarls was the only outstanding royalist leader returned to the chamber, CONTINUING WITH GREATER VALUES—PORTER’S ALTERATION SALE Democutl Flockin te New York State Capital Albany, N.
