liam O. Critz Sanford Wilson and

Bolsheuik Actions
To Cause Increase
In Price of Furs
(By Associated Press)

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 2.-Prices of furs
will be decidedly higher next winter,
according to buyers attending the
winter auction of the International Fur
Exchange here, which opened today.
More than 600 buyers from all parts
of the world were in attendance.
More than 100000 pelts, valued at
approximately s25.00O,000, will be dis
posed Of during the sale, which will
continue through February IA. The
sale is expected to be the largest in
the history of the trade.
The prospective increase in prices is
assigned to the embargo placed on
higher grades of furs by Australia and
to the Bolshevik uprisings in Russia,
which it was said, virtually has par
alyzed the fur trade in that country.
Philip B, Fouke, president of the ex.
change, in an address, said about halt
of the furs of the world were repre-
sented at the sale, as the visible sup
ply of the worlds furs at present is
worth about $50 100000.
Lots to be sold today included 5000
government seal skins from the Pry.
biloff Islands and 100000 Russian
squirrel. i.

HINES TO ANSWER
R. r. DEMANDS AT
Meeting TUESDAY
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.--An answer
to the wage demands of the 100000
railroad employees presented last July
will be given tomorrow by Director
General Hines at a conference with
officers of the brotherhoods and other
clination as to what the government S
attitude would be, but it was said
today that the answer would be
definite and final"
This conference probably will be the
last on this subject during the period
Of government control, which ends
March !. Decision on the demands of
the workers has been deferred pend
ing the outcome of the government S
efforts to lower the costing.
Officials said Mr.. Hines had worked
out the final draft of his reply alone,
and that few of his staff of advisors
had been taken into his confidence
They would venture an opinion wheth-
er he would refuse to negotiate further
or whether the final statement meant
that the government had declined to
meet the wage demands.
Council for the plaintiffs claims that
the state law provides that any town
contemplating building a general sewer
system, such as they allege was built
in Cambridge City, must first subject
the project to the people and let them
vote on it, either at special election
or at a general election.
This the town board did not do, they
say. The plaintiffs further claim that
the system as built Is defective
throughout, having no house connec
tions or proper lateral outlets. Several
objections were also filed with the
town board against the project, it is
alleged
