The roll of newly elected senators being called, the following appeared at the bar of the senate and subscribed to the oath of office, which was administered by the president, viz.:

Senators Perry, Everett, Fairchild, Arnold, Jennings, Baxter, Barwig, Rollmann, Whitman, Bray, Hanson, Potts, Albers, Staudenmayer, Scott, Bennett, and Mulberger.

The roll was thereupon called by Chief Clerk Wylie and the following senators answered to their names:

Senator Weissleder addressed the senate, saying that his title to a seat had been challenged in the Circuit Court of the county of Milwaukee, in a mandamus proceeding to compel the county clerk to place the name of a candidate on the election ballot. Senator Weissleder stated that he wished to lay the matter before the senate; that the fact was that because of illness in his family he was temporarily occupying lodgings in another district, but that he still maintained his legal residence in the 6th District, from which he was elected, certified, and seated

in 1913.

Senator Richards moved that the senate declare Senator Weissleder legally entitled to represent the 6th Senatorial District in the Senate of 1915.

Several senators suggested that no challenge of Senator Weissleder's right having been addressed to the senate, no action by the senate need be taken, and that Senator Weissleder retain his status as the senator from the 6th Senatorial District.

No action was taken.
