LONDON'S POLLING DAY.
FOG FALLS IN EVENING.
A. and N.Z. 1/ONDON, Dec. 6. For the polling in London there was fine but cold weather. The booths opened at 7 a.m. in many constituencies, and in others at 8 a.m., from which time there was a steady flow of voters, mostly city men, as working men mostly veto in the evening. A pall of fog descended on London in the evening, just when electioneering revellers were beginning to assemble. All traffic was chaotic in a few minutes. Buses crawled along, piloted by conductors and followed by flocks of taxi-cabs. The crowds became shadowy figures and dispersed homewards.
