Today Aaron Altman, president of the

with a tentative proposal to arbitrate
the entire controversy, the basis of ar
bitration being that Japanese native
born children should be allowed to at
tend the same schools that American
children do, provided they are of the
same age as the latter.
Altman refused to consider the pos
sibility of arbitration along these lines.
He reiterated his intention that it was
mandatory on the part OF the board of
education to segregate the Japanese
children under the present state school
laws.
Recognizing that so long as the board
of education maintains it's present atti-

TVER, Russia, Dec. 22.-Count
Alexis Ignatieff, councillor of the en-
pire and former governor general ol
ISiev. Volhynia and Podolia, was as
sassinated today in the refreshment
room of the Mobiles assembly hall.
The man who killed him endeavored
to commit suicide, but was overpowered
and arrested. His identity has not
been established.
Count Ignatieff was sitting with other
members of the zemstvo in the refresh
ment room. The zemstvo meets in the
Mobiles assembly hall.
Suddenly a young man who had been
sitting in the room arose and, ap-
preaching the count, fired six shots
from a revolver at him. All the shots
took effect, one piercing his heart, and
the count died almost instantly.
The murderer fled to an adjoining
room, where he turned his revolver,
two chambers of which he had re-
loaded, toward his own breast. One
shot missed and the other entered his
shoulder He was seized and as his
pursuers laid hold of him he shouted:
II did what I came here to do"
A card of admission to the zemstvo
bearing the name of Kullkof, was

Count Alexis Pavolich Ignatieff
the victim, had been an eager advocate
of reform when the Russian parliament
was forming. 1t is upon his report OF
conditions in South Russia, where he
had been sent after RED Sunday" by
the czar, that one of the principal
causes which induced the emperor to
proclaim the parliament. Previous to
the adoption of the parliament law
Ignatieff advocated broad powers fol
the parliament.
Later, however he seems to have
changed his opinion, for following the
success of repressive measures after
the Moscow revolt, he became an ac-
tive coadjutor of General Trepoff III
supporting the harsh policy of Minis
ter of the Interior Durnovo. He also
took part in the intrigue which en-
compassed the downfall of Count White
1t was said that the plot contem-
plated the proclamation of Ignatieff as
premier, the turning of the guard regi-
ments against parliament and the APP
plication of the iron rule which Igna-
tieff, Trepoff and their associates con-
sidered necessary in Russia.
The late count was born in 1912 and
was as a youth entered a Hussar regi-
ment. He was one of two sons of the
famous first Count Ignatieff, who from
soldier in the ranks rose to be presi-
dent of the committee of ministers
governor general of st. Petersburg and
founder of one of the richest families

The obnoxious drumhead court mar

| leading terrorists have been executed
during the last few months was worked
out at a special conference of which
! Count Ignatleff was a member and tC
him the revolutionists attributed the
authorship of this measure. Since Nj

has been several times reported as in

NINE CAGE DROPS;
!. SIX ENTOMBEO
Believed Miners May Drown in Water
at the Bottom of the Shaft.
One Is Known to Be
Dead
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 22.-One miner is
known to be killed, five others are be-
lieved to be dead and another was
seriously injured by the dropping of the
cage early today in the shaft of the
Breeze Trenton Coal Mining company,
about ten miles west of Carlyle, ILL.,
Carlyle is forty-eight miles east of ST.
Louis. The details were learned by
long distance telephone.
The accident occurred as the second
cage full of day shift miners were de-
scending into the mine.
The cage containing six men had
descended 800 feet down the 4O0-foot
shaft when it stuck momentarily and
then went crashing to the bottom.
The known dead:
August Foppey.
Buried under debris and believed to
be dead:
Walter Schaffner.
Herman Flater.
Henry Middeke.
Sam Holton.
Frank Sarre.
The injured:
bruised
Foppey jumped as the crash came
and was cut in two.
1t will likely be some hours before
the wreckage can be removed and the
exact loss of life known.
1t is believed that the five miners
were drowned in the sump at the bot
tom of the shaft, if they were not
killed in the fall. The sump is drain
hole into which the waters collect in
the levels. The sump in this mine
contained fifteen feet of water.
Wives and children of the miners
congregated at the mouth of the shaft
and anxiously awaited the efforts of
various sets of rescuers sent into the
mine to remove the debris.
