Conservatives. On Friday, Lord Claud HAMILTON was returned in place of Lord RAMSAY, who succeeds his father in the Peerage. The numbers were:-
Lord C. HAMILTON (C.), 21,019; Mr. PLIMSOLL (L.), 19,118; majority for the Conservative, 1901. Neither side polled as many as in February last, the interest being less; but, proportionately to the numbers, the Conservative majority was even greater than then.
