Petrograd, Sunday, Jan. 20.-A.. l.
Shingaroff, minister of finance in the
Kerensky cabinet, and Prof. F. F.
Kokoshkine, state comptroller under
Kerensky, were murdered in their
beds last night in the marine hos
pital.
NJ. Shingaroff and Prof. Kokosh-
kline were removed recently to the
hospital from the Fortress of St.
Peter and St. Paul because of illness.
A dozen armed men entered the hos
pital and demanded that they be
shown the beds of the former min
listers.
Prof. Kokoshkine was killed as he
slept, two bullets being fired. M. Shin
garoff lwakened and protested. Six
bullets were fired into his body. The
assassins then left the hospital.
M. Shingaroff and M. Kokoshkine
were arrested by the bolsheviki last
month, Notwithstanding the fact that
they had been elected delegates to the
constituent assembly and nominallyl
were immune from arrest. They were
prominent members of the constitu-
tional democratic party, which is op-
posed bitterly by the bolsheviki as
the representatives of the bourgeoisie.

Investigations by congress of war

clared, have almost entirely been
launched by republicans and adroitly
exploited for partisan purposes.
ROOSEVELT T ATTACKED.

leaders regarding the political plans

"The only possible effect of these
widely published utterances of this

its hold on popular confidence. That
seems to be the Rooseveltian stand
