Gov. Bailey Issues a PrOCIa-
nation Today.

lamation calling on the people of Kan
sas to aid the famine stricken districts
of northern Sweden, and designated a
general committee to hove charge of the

soon as possible to the famine sufferers.
The proclamation IS as follows.
Whereas, It has come to my knOwl-
edge through eablegrans from the
American legation at Stockholm, that
the sufferingS and needs among the
people of the famine stricken districts
of northern Sweden are much greater
and more general than was known until
recently and consequently call for a
more general assistance from the Chris
tian nations of the world than was an
ticipated earlier in the season; and,
Whereas, This condition of suffering
and famine will continue to exist until
the next crops are harvested. except as
relieved by the efforts of charity every
where. and,
Whereas, The sum Immediately need
ed is at least one million dollars, a sum
much larger than the Swedish-Ameri-
cans alone are able to contribute, hav-
ing already raised one hundred thousand
dollars for said PURPOSES and,
Whereas, The Swedish people have
for many centuries been known as a ma
ton Of sterling worth of varied and
splendid achievements. always loyal to
the cause of humanity and our Chris
tian civilization, ever ready to do their
full share in battling for what is right.

SUNDAY FUNERALS
TO Be ABOLISHED

CEMETERIES WILL CLOSE GATES
AT FIVE O'CLOCK on WEEK
DAYS AND NOT OPEN SUNDAY.
SAN FRANCISCO, April Sunday
funerals are likely to be relegated to
the realms of oblivion and VIII live
henceforth i'm memory only Persons
ContemT lating departing this life, no.
lens VOlens, whether by reconciliation
or in the course of human events, will
have to arrange il so as to give their
relatives and friends a chance to bury
the remains on Il week day, for the
superiltendents of the cemeteries are
Just considering the Possibility of clos
ing the gates of all burying grounds on
Sunday. The cause assigned for the
suggesting of the contemplated lnno-
walton is that the workmen employed
must charge a full days pay for WORK
ing any part of the day, and the assoc
Citations fail to see their way clear to
pay in wages to four men all they Will
receive for the interment of a body.
About three months ago the cemetery
employees organized a union and called
it Cemetery Employees Union, No. 10
634 Animated with the San Francisco
Labor Council and with the American
II @
of trade rules and a new scale of wa
ges. which were ratified by the Labor
Council and sent them to the superin-
tendents Of each of the cemeteries to
take effect April l. 1903. The rules de-
mand that none but members of the
union shall be employed III these ceme-
teries, Holy Cross, Cypresi Lawn, Hills
of Eternity, Home of Peace, Salem,
Eternal Home, Mount Olvet, Laurel
Hill and Calvary; that all wages must
be paid in full for he entire mont.
not later than on the 9Th of each
month, nine hours shall constitute a
days work; that any mar "lorking all
or any part of the day on Sunday, shall
be paid for the full day; an increase
of so cents a day on present wages for
all employees except head gardeners
and engineers.
Rather than have any contest or diff
ficulty the cemetery assOcia tons con-
ceded the terms asked. But the SUI
perintendents say these rules may work
serious inconvenience to the public, and
explain it in the following way: The
increase Of wages must be met by a
raise in the price Of graves and the
cost of the care of lots. The nine-houT
day must be made by closing the GEM
eteries ats o'clock, instead of 6, as is
now the rule, and all funerals arriving
at the gates after p m. must be turn
ed away. Union men are not permitted
to work after o'clock. and others are
not permitted to work at all. For work
on Sunday the union demands pay for
a full day, which means that the men
must receive a full days pay for at
tending to one funeral, or $40 for fouI
men working one hour or less, all the
cemetery charges for some funerals
leaving nothing for the cost of the
land and other expenses. The super
lntendents have the closing of all GENE
teries on Sundays under consideration
and there shall be no funerals on sun
