GENERAL SLUMP ALL ALONG
THE LINE OWING TO IN
FERIOR OFFERINGS
SEATTLE, Wn„ May 22.—(Jp)—
The decline in the New York fur
market in recent sales was reflect
ed in the auction of the Seattle Fur
Exchange, ranging from 10 to 20
per cent, J. E. Agnew, manager, an
nounced here today.
The offerings totalled $350,000, con
sisting principally beaver, lynx, mink,
Siberian sable, red, white, blue and
cross fox, marten and wolf. The col
lection of inferior fur was due to the
usual seasonal percentage of sprin
gy, low-grade skins. The next sale
will be held June 17, when a large
offering of northern furs is expected
following the opening of navigation.
Red fox declined ten per cent; Al
aska interior fox average as low as
$22 and $25; peninsula furs, $18 and
$22; coast furs, $12 and $14. While
fox received the same decline, sell
ing from $35 to $38; mink from the
interior declining, No. 1 and 2 rang
ing from $9 to $11. Cross fox sold
poorly as there wras no demand. Blue
fox and beaver showed up strong
and demanded a basis ^ of $35 for
large, and the extra large skins with
dark colors came in great demand.
Lynx took a ten per cent decline;
marten being practically neglected
during the sale. Otter sold well, the
Alaskan ones in two’s, dark, selling
from $22 to $25. Average lots of
all grades of ermine declined 20
per cent, bring $1 and $1.25, with
$1.80 for a top price.

JAPAN'S SUFFRAGE ACT
GIVING VOTE TO 9,000,000,
MAY AFFECT THE U. S.
TOKIO, May 22.—(^P)—When the
so-called “University Manhood Suf
frage bill” was passed by the 50th
session of the Imperial Diet, after a
stormy session which threatened the
life of the present Kato administra
tion, Japan took a step forward in
democracy that political leaders here
regard as unprecedented in the Em
pire’s history.
The immediate result is that every
man in Japan of 2:. j, ears of age
and over can vote, provide, 1 he
earns his own living. The only
ilrlrgs on the meisare are those re
garding whether a man is to be
Corsica »cd a pauper or not. fne
clause has been variously trans
lated, tc is gen ii ally worue.l in
English at stating that all men «i
the above age can vote, “except
those who are poor and without abil
ity to support themselves.”
The law means that some 12,000,
000 male citizens of Japan can elect
their representatives in the national
governing body. Heretofore, only
about 3,000,000 could vote, property
fight requirements eliminating the
other 10,000,000, or so.
The big question is: “‘What does
this mean to Japan and, through
changes in the government here, tc
other countries that trade with
Japan?” Inasmuch as the United
States is probably Japan’s greatest
customer, commerce with America
may be affected.
How this is true is a long story.
It will suffice to say that the people
will elect representatives whom they

And, whatever else may be true,
the people of Japan feel none too
kindly toward America. Immigra

wardly they are courteous; but un
der their skins they feel hurt. There’s
no doubt about it. And with a Diet
of legislators representing all the
people a reaction may be expected
that will more clearly reflect this
attitude.
