THE PRESIDENCY.
BRITISH MINISTERIAL VIEW. By felcEraph—Preso Association— Oopyrlclit London, November 7. Mr. P. D. Aoland, Parliamentary Under-Secretary to the Foreign Office, speaking at a. Liberal meeting at Taun- : ton,' said Dr. Wilson's election, as prcs> dent of tlie United States, was a victory for tlie party of reduction in tariffs. A message, of God-speed might well go to the new President in bis task of reduoing tariffs and bringing trusts into a proper position. Short of a revolution, said Mr. Acland, it was almost impossible to disestablish, trusts; tlie only tiling to do was to keep cleat of them from tho beginning. DEMOCRATS IN THE. SENATE. (Rco. November 8, 9.30 p.m.) Washington, November 8, The Democrats are practically assured \>f the control of the Senate. Allowing oil this doubtful States to the Republicans, tie Democrats count exactly , half, with the Democratic Vice-President giving his casting vote. As tho Democrats already control tho House of Representatives, it is thu9 probable that Br. Wilson, when, he is swo'rnin aoxt year, will find his party in control of both Houses of Congress.
