TOKYO, Aug. 9.-A strike or working girls in a large Japanese textile factory won momcntouJ victory including Freedom of mar riage" and free baths every day.
 The right of girl employees to marry has long been a bone of contention between workers and manufacturers. The strike came about when the owners of the Tokyo Muslin Company attempted to enforce to the letter their rule against romance.
 The custom Of enforcing the anti-marriage rule has been in vogue for many years, the argn- ment of the employers being that most of the girl workers are too young to marry, and If they do so their value to factory work Is greatly depreciated.

DEAUyILLE. Aug. g. Grea, crowds attended the recent "Ele- gance Sportive,' annual fashion show, at which male mannequins' an innovation of the season, added more than usual interest.
 Feminine bathing costumes were characterized by an almost general fondfess for diagonal designs. Trunks of single color with dia- mond shaped motifs on tho, jer- sey were featured by several irn- portant houses. They were much more subdued than masculine bath ing attire.
 The show opened with presen- tation of two mannequins in bath ing attire from Paul Poiret. Their .eustdmes. bathing capes and beach umbrellas formed an ensemble of color and design. Models from Patou were conspicuous by their severe simplicity and were given enthusiastic applause.
 Short woolen tights predomi- mated for beach wear. Sport dress les from Beer, Worth and Lucien 1Ielong followed. Other exhibi- fors were Phillipe and Gaston and Dremet.

 |ON SQUAW CREEK
Sumner 5. Smith Tells of Country and Pres
 ent Operations

1 Details of the Sauaw Creek l strike in the Yukon Territory were given today by Sumner S. Smith, mining man, who returned . to Juneau on the steamer Alameda. He made the trip inside from Whitehorse to Dazadeash Lake. | thence to Squaw Creek and out to l Rainy Hollw, near Haines. The trip from Whitehorse to. 1 Champagne was made by automo- bile over 60 miles of good road, MT. Smith. said. From there he went to Dezadeash Lake and river where i he took a saddle horse to the scene of the strike.
 Squaw Creek is about 12 miles I long, according to MT. Smith, bor- dering between British Columbia and Yukon Territory. It is a steep and narrow creek, with many l large boulders.
 The claims run 250 feet cross wise of the narrow valley and are difficult to work economically be- cause of draining being dumped into adjoining claims.
 Takes Out $3,ooo Paddy Duncan, original discoy- erer, has taken out $3,0O0 from the present cut since opening up last fall, to July 15, according to MT Smith.
 Discovery and No. Above are doing most of the actual mining. Each employs from four to five men. Many other claims are being prospected.
 Gold has actually been found the entire length of the creek, MT. Smith said, but not in large paying quantities.; however there is a prospect that a camp might be de- veloped.
 Difficulties in prospecting and mining are experienced because of the large boulders which fill the creek.
 There are no supplies at Squaw l Creek and everything necessary must be taken in by the pros- Ipectors and operators.
 Follows Wild Trail Returning south from Squaw Greek, MT. Smith went over the i, fhead of the creek, swinging soutl along the Hanks of the mountains parallel to the old Dalton Trail
 He crossed Boundary Glacier, fol | I1lowing l Jarvis Creek down to Rainy Hollow, thence to Pleasant Camp land from there distance of 4. s4.mlles etos Haines.
