AUCKLAND, Fsbrdary 17. The licensing elections yesterday' all resulted in favor of the temperance candidates by large majorities. The Ponsonby Committee, pledged to prohibition, will withdraw the licenses held by two hotels in the district. At vVaipu (oountry district), where the brewers' oaudidates made a strong fight with a view of getting licenses introduced, the prohibition candidates were all elected by a small' majority. The publican party made no exertion in the city elections, hoping to overthrow their opponents throngh an informality. The publican party have instructed Mr Cutter, solicitor, to endeavor to overturn yesterday's elections on the ground that the nominations were informal.
