An official statement issued here today
says that a majority of German yes

The German warships, the statement

The statement reads: s

craft entered the Bay OF Finland. > A
dense fog hindered discovery of the
enemy's vessels in good time and in
consequence the enemy succeeded in
b~ombarding the Baltic coast for several
minutes.
About 100 shells, mostly shrapnel,
were fired. Seven civilians, including
five children and two rank and file,
were killed. One woman and four sol
diers were wounded. Several houses
were damaged and IL horses were
killed.
THE enemy retired hurriedly, but we
sank a majority Of the torpedo craft
Further pursuit of hostile units was
abandoned in consequence of the dense
fog and the timely discovery Of the en-
emy's traps"

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES
CONTEST IN CLARK COUNTY

Clark. s. ID, Nov. 15.-Clark coun-
ty will be the scene of two interesting
election contests growing out OF the
recent election. The offices of clerk Of
courts and sheriff will be contested by
h democratic candidates, who on the
face of the returns were defeated by
small margins.
The contest will be based partially
On what is claimed to have been lille
gal procedure in counting the ballots.
1t is alleged hat i'm several precincts
there were instances in which a cross
was placed at the head Of the repub-
lican ticket and further down other
crosses for the democratic candidates
for clerk of court and sheriff. 1t Is
alleged that some of the election
boards threw out these ballots on the
contention that the voters had marked
both candidates and soncequently had
voted for neither. "
1t is further alleged hat in some OF
these instances these ballots were
listed as straight republican, the
crosses in front of the democratic can
didates being ignored. One of the
democratic candidates requires q
change of only nine votes to tie and
the other about 80.
