FIGHT FOR OHERTSEY SEAT. GENERAL GOUGH A CANDIDATE. Australian and N-Z. Cable Association. (Received March 19, 5.5 p.m.) LONDON, March 17. The most interesting pending byelection is that of Cherteey, rendered vacant through the death of Sir Donald Macmastcr, K.C-, Coalition-Unionist. Tho candidates are Sir Philip Richardson, Conservative and Unionist, who led the British riflemen to Australia; and General Gough, “Wee Free.” The latter’s campaign consists principally of the defence of the Fifth Army owing to charges that ho is seeking to enter Parliament chiefly through a personal grudge against the Government, which recalled him from the Western front.
