Money Collected From Dis
orderly Houses.

New York, Feb. S.-Recognizing the
gravity Of the police situation brought
about by the confession Of Capt

duced ten detectives to patrol duty in

fessed 70 District Attorney Whitman
Walsh told Newburger he had col
Iected not less than 100000 in four
years from disorderly resorts, naming
as receivers of graft money Inspector

Thompson. Waldo Immediately sus-
pended Sweeney, Walsh, Hussey and

RECALL PETITION Is ILLEGAL
GAINESVILLE City Attorney Holds Up
Document as Defective-Cierk
Refuses to Call Election.

Janesville.-The second petition
for the recall of Mayor James F. Fa-
theirs and Commissioners Chauncy
Miltomore and Roy Cummins, was
rejected as defective by the city
clerk, who refuses to call the cleo
ton. City Attorney Dougherty rules
the petition defective. He claims the
state law does not permit the recall
of more than one official at one time;
that sufficient cause must be shown
for recall and that at least one-third
of the last registered vote must sign
and that the petition does not COM
ply with any of these conditions. The
first petitions were thrown out
month ago, because the three were
filed at one time. Separate petitions
were then filed on separate days

EkERN INJUNCTION ENDED
Ousted Wisconsin Insurance Head Nc
Longer Protected from Election
Ruling bf Judge Stevens.

Madison. Stevens of the
Dane county circuit court dissolved
the Injunction restraining Gov. Nc
Govern, L. A Anderson and others
from interfering with Herman L
Ekern as insurance commissioner.
Mr.. Ekern will appeal from the decis-
ion to the supreme court
As to the question, whether or not
Gov. McGovern had the right to re-
move Ekern, in the limits of the
action brought, the court determines
that the removal was within the jur-
isdiction Of the governor. Coming
with this, is the further order that
the governor, as determined in the
injunctionaI proceeding, has no right
TO seek to install into Office the per
son appointed The effect of this is
that Anderson must institute proper
proceeding, through quo warranto or
otherwise. to Gust Ekern.
The status Of the case is practically
where it was following the appoint
gment Of Anderson Whatever title
1tAEIE - p It'll AOIullS tue OIlCEs AL
dersOn has, while Ekern holds pos
session of the office The presump-
tion Of the court is that Gov. Mccoy
ern will take no steps by force to
eject Ekern and that legal proceed
ings will be instituted 10 try the title.
In this respect the decision acts upon
Gov. McGovern as an individual and
not as an official
An attempt to Gust Ekern by force
is regarded as an individual and not
an executive act. It is believed that
Anderson under the decision has the
legal title to the office. The fact is
that Ekern is in present possession.
Whether the move next made to de-
Fermine who is entitled to the office
will come from Anderson or from
Ekern is cOnjectural
Both sides to the controversy claim
a decisive victory. The right of the
governor to remove has been estab-
lished. The question of whether or
not he has the power to place the
affairs of the insurance department
in charge of Anderson, as the legal
custodian, is up to now undeter-
mined
