"Washington, D. C., Feb. 4.
—J. N*. Gillett, Governor of Califor
nia: What is the rumor ttfat tbe
California legislature has passed a
bill excluding the Japanese children
from the public schools? This is tbe
most offensive bill of all, and In my
Judgment is clearly unconstitutional
and we should at once have to test it
in the courts. Can It be stopped in
tbe legislature or by veto?
"Theodore Roosevelt."
Governor Gillett immediately wired

sure failed cf passage because of a
tie vote, the friends of the bill being
unable to muster the required 41

BIG COAL MINING DEAL.
All Properties in Southern Illinois
About to Be Consoicated.
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 5.—Practically
all Illinois coal mines within a radius
of fifty miles of St. Louis is on the

The deal will involve $50,000,000.
The plan according to coal men,
contemplates two things—cheaper
production of coal for St. Louis and
an increase in consumption by en
couraging manufacturing industries
to be established here. The inner
group of mines, that is, the mines
within the fifty miles radius, supply
practically all of the coal consumed
in St. Louis. The receipts of coal in
