JAPANESE SOCIETY STIRRED
BY A CASE OF "SHINJU'

Toxic. April 12.-Japanese society
Is stirred by case Of 'shinju," or
double suicide. affecting the family
of Count Akimasa Yoskihawa. vice.
president OF the Privy Council His
daughter, Mrs. Kwanji Yosnikawa
and Rikisuke Kuramochi, her chauf-
feur. are alleged to have sought
death in the path of a railroad train
The chauffeur threw the woman
on the tracks, but evidently lacked
time to carry out is intention OF fol-
lowing her. Instead he drew a short
sword, slashed his throat and died a
few moments later. Mrs. Yoshikawa
was tossed from the rails by the en-
glne. Her condition was pronounced
critical.
The husband of Mrs. Yoshikawa
had been adopted TO the Yoshikawa
family. becoming the heir to the
count.
A case OF "shinju" is not unusual
in Japan and since the olden days
many fanciful love stories have been
woven around this Japanese practice
1t is extraordinary, however, for a
woman of as high birth as Count
yoshikawa's daughter to choose ia
end her life in such a fashion. The
fact that the woman was married
and that she sought death with her
chauffeur heightens the interests OF
the affair in japanese minds.
