JAPANESE WEOS
WHITE WOMAN

VANCOUVER, Wash, May %
John Inagaki, a Japanese, well
dressed and apparently with an
abundance of money, was married
here today to Mrs. Emelie Leone, a
white woman. Inagaki gave his age
as twenty-eight and that of his bride
as thirty-one Before coming to Van
couver they made a futile attempt to
get a marriage license in Portland.
To Judge G. L. Davis, who married
the couple, Inagaki connded that ne
was native son of Japan, but had
graduated from the Mission High
School in San Francisco. Relatives
of his, he said, are merchants in the
Japanese colony of the bay city.
Inagaki and his bride, with several
friends, whose identity was not
learned, enjoyed an elaborate we'd
ding dinner in a local hotel, after
which the couple boarded a train for
Seattle, where they will make their
home.

JAPAN'S SILK INDUSTRY GROWING

characteristic of the Japan silks is the
minimum percentage of gum, the loss
in boiling not exceeding 10 to 20 per
cent, as against 25 per cent for Eu-
ropean silks and those of India and
Canton.
"One of the largest spinning compa-
MES in Japan is the Kenshi Spinning
Company, of Kyoto, whose chief prod
uct is raw silk and silk yarn. Many
of the original factories were built
with government aid, but they all
proved Improbable, and in 1892 they
were amalgamated as the Silk Thread
Spinning Joint Stock Company, with
a capital of $1,7OO,OOO. In 1905 a joint
enterprise was started with the Chi
nese and a factory was built at
Shanghai for the development of the
China and India trade, and the capital
of the company was increased to ST.
100000 Another increase in capital
took place in 1906, owing to the grow
ing demand for the company's prod
ucts, when the figure reached $780,
900. In 1907 the Cotton Yarn Compa-
ny at Okayama was bought and the
capital Increased to $S,437,5OO. The
number of spindles at present in oper-
alton in the five factories of the com
pany is $4,000. On March 1, 1911, the
announcement was made of the con-
solidation of the Kenshi Spinning Co..
with the Kanegafuchi Spinning c., of
Toxic"

STANFOR UNIVERSITY, May %.
Announcing that he is heartily in

approval upon the movement as it is
now being carried out. DR.. Jordan

who are in need of a sea voyage with
short stops on the way. The wonder

of the. passengers from the deck OF

in the Record some very significant
figures furnished by the Department
of Commerce and Labor. These fig
ures show the arrival and departure
) of Japanese for both the United
States proper and the Territory of
Hawaii from July 1, 1908, to March
| 1, 1911. Within this period there ar
rived at United States ports 1901 Jap
anese, while 14,195 sailed for Japan
This does not look like invasion. In
Hawaii, concerning which Territory
{
there were 4,34S arrivals and 6,266
departures. In other words, 1894
more Japanese left continental United
States than arrived, and 1918 more
left Hawaii than came into that Ter.
ritory.
Mr.. NORRIS. Mr. Chairman, during
what time was that?
Mr.. KNOWLAND. During the per-
iod l had just stated, from the 1su

Especial Correspondence of the Starr
WASHINGTON, May 17.-Accord-
ing to a report made by the American
ambassador at Toxic, the silk in
dustry of Japan is growing. He says:
"When feudalism was abolished in
Japan, the weaving of artistic silk
fabrics seemed in danger of serious
setback. The industry was saved,
however, by the appearance of a new
and America, and the demand grew
for costly and heavy stuffs in the
shape of tapestry, table and bed
spreads, etc. The weaves of Nishijin
lost no time in importing jacquard
looms to turn out pieces suitable to
foreign customers. Considerable
modification of Japanese decorative
weaving has since taken place, due
either to the study of foreign prod
ucts OF the improvement of native
products to meet foreign demands.
Japanese silks have vastly improv-
ed in color, Keeling, and general char
acteristics in the last ten years. They
are good in winding, fairly even, firm
in the thread, and capable of being
dyed and weighted, especially in
colors, to double their original weight
when boiled off. The sizes are such
that they can be utilized for fine or
ganzine and tram silks. One special
