ATTORNEYS START ACTION FOR
REVIEW OF BALLOTS IN SIX

Milwaukee. Papers have been fl
ed in six counties by attorneys for
Gov. Francis E. McGovern, republi-
can candidate, demanding a recount
of the votes cast for United States
senator. The counties where re-
view of the ballots is demanded are
Milwaukee, Dane, Douglas, Polk,
Fond du Lac and Waukesha.
Demands for the recount will be
filed in each of the counties, as re
quired by law, and the candidates
for the Office of senator notified. 1t

manding a recount that illegal in
structions were issued to election of

headquarters that Hastings lead is

will be wiped out if the ballots dis
allowed are counted. 1t is stated that
in Milwaukee county alone 4 700 bal
cause the voter marked a cross at
the top of the BALLOT, thus voting the
straight ticket, and then split. The
intent of the voter should govern the
count in such cases, say the Meow

Although demands for recount
are filed in only six counties those
at the McGovern headquarters say
additional actions will be taken if
further irregularities are discovered
in other counties.
Although it is claimed by the gov

dred votes separate him from Hust-
ing. the democratic candidate, the
count of the Milwaukee Sentinel
shows that Husting is leading by
LILO votes. Returns from seven

unofficial. The totals shown in this

BERLIN OFTEN TAKEN
GERMAN CAPITAL FOUR TIMES
OCCUPIED BY ENEMY.
Most Severe Blow Was During the
Thirty Years War-Captured by
the Austrians in 1757-When
Napoleon Entered.

OF the capitals of the nations now at
war in Europe. Berlin, in times past,
has suffered most at the hands of for
elgn troops.
In all warfare the capital OF the
country invaded is usually the object
i've of the hostile action. Our own cap
ital a Washington suffered at the
hands of the British in the war of 1872.
Since 144S Berlin has been the seat Of
the Hohenzollerns and has been occu-
pied four times by the forces of an in
vading enemy.
During the Thirty years war the
city was practically RACED to the
ground. About one hundred years la
ter, in 1867, 1t was taken by the Aus
TRANS. They did no harm to the city,
as they received a ransom of 100000
thalers-about s1,125,O00.
At the end of the disastrous Jena
campaign the capital of Germany fell
into the hands of the French in 1906.
1t was occupied by the troops of Ma
poleon for two years. When Prussia
and Russia allied in 1872 Berlin was
again taken by the Little Corporal
and was held for year.
Next TO Berlin Paris has suffered
most at the hands of hostile troops.
In March. 1914, the allied armies
which had opposed Napoleon took the
capital of France and held it for two
months. year later, at the end OF
the Hundred Days, the city again fell
into the hands of the enemy.
The Germans were anxious to blow
up the Arch de Triomphe, which cele-
brated the victory of the French at
Jena, but the British we're opposed to
it and saved the arch,
After long siege by the Germans in
1870 Paris was again occupied by hos
tile troops. This time much damage
was done to the city. Many of the prin-
cipal buildings were destroy@ or
burned, and for several months the
Notifications around the city were
held by the kaisers soldiers.
Since it became the capital Of Eng
land, London has never been occupied
by foreign troops, nor even has been
threatened by them. 1t was held by
Danish and Roman invaders before
England, as a nation, came into exist
ence But since the time of the Nor
mans the English capital has never
been threatened.
Before the present struggle Brussels
! had not been held by foreign troops, as
the integrity OF Belgium was pre-
served in the struggle of 1870.
st. Petersburg. or Petrograd as it is
now called. has been too Tar removed
from the center Of activities in Euro
| pean warfare to have suffered at the
| hands of an invading enemy
Moscow has been the objective point
of troops invading Russia In 1871 and
1891 it was taken by the Tartars of the
Crimea and destroyed. In 1912 Napo-
leon made it the object of his invasion
of Russia and aided in its destruction.
although the Russians themselves had
done much to destroy the city before
the enemy arrived.

Coal is the first need of South Amer
lea In the Americas. the new publica-
tion started by the National City bank.
the first big movement OF trade from
the United States to the southern con-
tinental countries since the war began
is visible at Hampton Roads, where
three important bituminous coal-carry-
ing roads converge, An expert in the
coal business estimates that a million
and a half tons will within a year
leave this country to consumers who
have hitherto looked to Wales and
Australia for their supply. South
America normally takes 100000 tons
OF coal and briquettes year. The
competition with Australia is due
chiefly to the opening OF the Panama

Philip TO FILL VACANCIES
Scores Of Positions, Some Carrying
Good Salaries, to Be Filled by
New Governor.

Madison.-Gov. E l.. Philip will
have a score of appointments to make
when he takes Office, or shortly there
after. The first to be made will be in
his official family and consist OF prl'
vate secretary, state claim agent and
executive clerk. In addition to these
is the position of superintendent OIL
public property, which is an appoint
ment much sought after since the leg
islature raised the salary to $4,000
year. This appointment Is in the
hands of the governor, the same as
those in his immediate official family,
and does not have to be confirmed by
the senate.
Another very important appoint
ment the new governor will have to
make will be that of insurance com
missioner, the term of Commissioner
H. l.. Ekern expiring June 80, 1915.
There is a possibility that before the
time arrives for the appointment to
this important position that the office
will again have been placed in the
elective list, where it was formerly.
If not, the governor will have chance
to give some one good berth.
Other appointments which will be
made at once are three on the state
board of agriculture, where the terms
of Mrs. AIDA T. HOWE, Fl. e. Kruger
and G. e. Kuntz expire Jan. l..
Though this is before the retirement
of Gov. McGovern, it is official cour-
tesy for the outgoing governor to
leave these appointments for his sue
cessor to make.
In February the terms of H. d. Ham
ilton and George b. Nelson, as mem
bers of the board of normal school re-
gents, expire, and their successors
will have to be appointed. The term
board of health also expires in Febru-
airy.
In March the term of l.. C. Colman
as member of the state park board ex-
pires, making the appointment of a
successor necessary.
The terms of Edward Williams as
member of the state board of pharma-
cy, and A. l.. Osborn as commissioner
of fisheries, expire in April giving the
governor two more appointments. In
the month of May two more appoint
ments will fall in, being those to take
the places of w. F.. Becker, member Of
the board of trustees of the Milwaukee
Hospital for the Insane, and w. f.
Hardy of the board of dental exam
liners.
To these can be added numerous
honorary appointments on various
boards and committees to represent
Wisconsin at conventions of various
sorts.
