Gen. Wood's Supporters Gaining Marked Success Manila, June 9.
The returns of the general election, although not yet com plete, show that the Naciofiflistas will probably control the House of Representatives with 50 seats and possibly also the Senate. Messrs. Manuel Quezon and Osmen have both been elected to the Senate.
There has been an extraordinary showing by the Democrata Opposition, whose candidates at Manila have all obtained seats. Also, nearly all the Democratas.in the provinces have been successful wherever they ran.
Three provincial police were stabbed in minor disorders and many demonstrations of protest have been held but the voting was fairly quiet and more honest than at previous elections.
General Wood is expected to meet less legislative opposition as a result of the Democrata strength in the new Parliament.—Reuter.
