His nose was completely cut open and other bad cuts were inflicted over both eyes and on the side of his faee. It is evident that he sustained several broken bones, and may be internally injured.

J., Special By the wrecking of . a three-coach elec tric train on the West Jersey & Sea- shore Railroad Sunday afternoon - at least 50 passengers perished and the first may reach the total of 75 when all is known. While crossing over a drawbridge spanning the waterway known ase ' ' the Thoroughfare, ' 1 which separates Atlantic City from the mainland, the. train left the track, and plunged into the water, with ; one or two excep tions, were drowned. Up to . mid night 25 bodies have been recovered and it is believed that at least 25, and possibly, 50, more bodies still are in the submerged coaches. The disaster, the. worst that has happened since the terrible Meadow wreck of July 30, 1896,' occurred at half-past 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The train, made up of "three, heavy coaches, which left Camden at i o'elock in the afternoon carried at least SS passengers, as. that number of tiekets are held by the conductor. That official is uncertain, however. just how many passengers were on the train, and until all the bodies . have been taken from the submerged cars, it will not be possible to give the true figures of the dead. Recuers Could Do Little. The accident was witnessed by manv person on eii an4 aia-wp was pivinuHT - sent irom iitiantic City. Little could be done, however, towards saving the lives of those im prisoned in the submerged coaches. The water at the point where the train plunged in was not deep enough to cover the coaches at first, but as they quickly settled in the mud, and as the tide rose, they were soon hid es, but as darkness set in and as the tide ran more swiftly, they were un able for a- long time to reach them. Late in the evening a wrecking crew arrived on the scene and with Their rad and .tl e use of a derrick, a dozen or more bodies . were taken out and brought to the city. Of the 25 bod :es;,, about 20 havb been identified, md it is believed no difficulty will be experienced in establishing the iden-. tity of the others. General Manager W. W.

Subscription Prie . nn o C, TH UliSDAY, NOVEMBER 1,1906. HESECOmiT GOES TO COURT San Francisco Board of Educa tion is Enjoined. ANXIETY FELT AT WASHINGTON Ambassador Aoki Calls on Secretary I , Root to Protest Against the. Ex clusion of a Japanese Child ' From the Public Schools. V V';, San Francisco, Cal. Judge Wol berton, of the United States Circuit .Court, has issued an order to the oard of Education of San " Fran cisco, citing that body to show cause why an injunction should not issue, compelling the reinstatement of I. Yasuhara, a Japanese pupil recently excluded from the Pacific Heights Grammar School. This order fol lowed an application for injunction presented to Judge Wolberton. It is the intention to make this a test case. The ground for asking an injunction was that the resolution of the Board of Education excluding Japanese pupils from the city schools is In violation of the Constitution of the United States and also in viola tion of a treaty now existing between the United States and the Empire of Japan. I A mass meeting of the Japanese residents discussed the situation re garding the children's exclusion. Washington, D. C Through ac tivity on the part of the Department of Justice a test case of the exclusion of Japanese children from schools of San Francisco has been begun in the United States Circuit Court in the California city. According to un- official advices, a Japanese parent has appealed for an injunction against the Board of Education, and Judge Wolberton, of the Circuit Court, has called oh the hoard to show cause why, an injunction! should not he granted restraining the board from excluding the child of this Jaoaness parent from a certain grammar school. It is understood in Washing ton that the step was taken through agents of the Department of Justice. It is about the only thine that the Cisco. The result of the hearing in the case will be most important.. If the Board of Education is re strained from excluding Japanese children the existing diplomatic sit uation will be materially clarified here. In such an event the State Department may inform the Japanese Government that there has been no infringement of treaty rights. The protest of Viscount Aoki, the Japanese Ambassador, to Secretary Root against the exclusion of Jap anese children from the schools of San Francisco, has caused a decided stir in diplomatic circles, and is still seriously worrying the Administra tion. The question has assumed, it is admitted, more serious interna tional importance than the San Fran ciscans perhaps would believe. There is now na concealment here of the fact that an anti-American sentiment is rapidly growing in Japan. COURT FINES BEEF C03IPANY. I'acking Concern Fined $10,000 Un der the Arkansas Anti-Trust Law.

Hold Useless Powwow With Captain Johnson and Then Resume Their -March Northward. Omaha, Neb. -General Greely Is sued orders for 400 - soldiers from Fort Meade, S. D., to be rashed to the end of the railroad northwest of Deadwood, and thence by forced marches overland to where the run away Utes are encamped oh the head waters of the Littlo Powder River. in Wyoming. This detachment is to bead off the Indians and prevent them from getting into South Da kota. ' .. This Is the third detachment to bo sent against the Utes. So urgent Is the order thkt a portion of the men will go in iattle cars, as the rail road cannot! get enouerh nasseneer coaches to Fort Meade by the time they are needed. In connection with the troubles which the War Department is having with the runaway Indians, a ra- thetlc story was, told by , the Sioux Indian Interpreter to Thomas H. Tib bies, of Omaha. By adontion Tibblea is a member of the Omaha tribe and is known to every Indian in the West. The Interpreter said , that several weeks ago runners came from the Utes to the Sioux Reservations in South Dakota, bearing , the storv of the comnlaints of the Utes. They told the Sioux that they were actually starving, and offered themselves as slaves to the Sioux, provided they were Tiermitrea to, come to live on the Siout Reservation. The Sioux replied that If they cam on a visit to them they would not be permitted to starve, but thai the Sioux did not wish slaves, and . that the Government would not per mit them to give the Utes a portion of their lands. Word was received here from the scene of the Indian depredations In Wyoming that Cant. C P. ' Johnson, of Major Grlerson's command, with an orderly and a scout, overtook the Utes on Little Powder River, about fortv miles north,of Gillette., Three hundred braves, well armed ' and withJu!argesupply ot mmnnU. aroMnd a .circle , in which Captain Johnson ard the chiefs of the tribe held their talk. - , The Indians said they would wel come war, and would not return to the barren reservation which had been allotted to them in Utah. The older Indians told Captain Johnson they would all die. fighting rather than return where there was noth- t Ing but starvation for them. They insisted on continuing thelr,r way either to the Sioux Indian country of Sotn Dakota or the. Crow country ' of Montana. , .' As soon a? the powwow was over the Indians broke camn and started northward again, while Cantata Johnson returned to Gillette and re quested the War Department to send him mo-e troons. Ranchmen have reported the; Utes have had two war dances since they started northward and are more de fiant as they get further, from civilly zation.
