COTTON STRIKERS
STOP TO ATTEND
SERVICES
Good Friday Quiet In Strike At
Utica.
NO SETTLEMENT IN SIGHT
Public Meetings Held to Devise
Means Of Caring for Those Who
May Be in Want

Utica. April 5.-Great crowds of
striking employees of the cotton mills
at New York Mills answered the APP
peal of the priests and attended Good
Friday services. There was little de-
monstration today, and this is credit
ed to the presence of the three com
panies of militia, as well as the adj
vice of the Catholic clergymen. That
the strike is little nearer settlement
is evident from the little information
impaired by officials Of the New York
Mills company
c. NJ Braman, representing A. d..
Julliard & Co., of New York, the
principal stakeholder in the mills and
owners of a chain of silk and cotton
mills in this country, visited the
scene of the strike today and confer
red with the local officials. However,
no decision was reached.
The commandants of the military
forces have received no information
regarding the length of their stay,
and the soldiers continue to picket the
mills and exact passes from every
one who passes within.
One OF the strikers made the state
ment today that the quiet attitude of
the foreigners today was due entire
ly othe season, and declared that af-
ter Holy Week more demonstratiye
measures light be employed to gain
the attention OF the company. While
this is regarded as an idle threat, the
! authorities are determined to take no
chances. and the guards will remain
in CHARGE ci the situation until some
agreement has been reached.
Following the church services to-
day public meetings of the strikers
were held for the consideration of
ways and means of meeting the fnan.
cial and physical needs of the 200O
! persons out of work. Union men in
! this locality have been appealed Ia
and have responded with contributions
and an assessment of more general
nature is expected

MESSAGE FROM THE DEAD
Friends Of Or. Funk Expect communi-
cation from Him

Members of the American society
for psychical research hope to OBJ
tain an authoritative communication
from the other world through the
death of DR.. Isaac X. Funk Thursday.
Dr. Funk, who was a noted inyestiga-
tor of psychical phenomena and pub
lished three books on the subject of
spiritualism, made elaborate arrange
ments sometime ago to establish com
munication with living person on
earth following his death. DR. Funk's
plans were announced to his friends
in a statement which he made soon
after the death of Prof. William
James, the Harvard psychologist.
I'VE have determined on a certain
code of signals which no one on earth
knows but the person to whom l will
communicate, and myself" said DR.
Funk at the time III he receives
one OF these signals after my death
he will be absolutely certain by it.
that ! have reached him. He will
then establish communication with
me, either through a designated medi-
UNI, or by some means which ! may
find in the next world" While DR..
Funk did not indicate the identity of
the person he proposed to reach from
the spirit world. it is believed. that
he is DR.. James H. Hyslop, editor OF
the Journal of the American Society
for Psychical Research. and DR..
Funk's closest friend and co-worker
in spiritualistic investigations.

LEvEE BREAKS At

Federal and State Governments Are

Memphis. Tenn, April 6.-Flood
area in the Mississippi valley was
widened and heightened yesterday.
The big government levee west OF
Hickman protecting the ReeIoot
lake district in Kentucky and Ten
nessee broke late in the afternoon
and it is believed $50 square miles
will be inundated. This section is
comparatively thickly populated and
loss of life is expected. Much SUI
fering and property damage seem GER
tain.
In it's onward rush the Mississippi
reached a food stage almost to Nat
chez, Miss, and last night hundreds
of men were at work on the leyees IN
the newly menaced territory stopping
small breaks and strengthening spots
weakened by the terrific strain. AS
the river was still rising at Cairo and
the Ohio was slowly mounting higher
as far up as Louisville with smaller
streams all down the line all pouring
unprecedented volumes Of water into
the Mississippi the lower river dis
trict faced a crisis.
About 63S miles of the Mississippi
is seriously affected, that being the
distance between Columbus, KY, and
Vicksburg. Miss. The greatest strain
where the leyee is liable to break any
time. EXTENDS from Columbus, Ky, to
Helena, Ark, distance of 3lS miles.
The list OF fatalities from the flood
was probably brought to IS yesterday
This is not positive, however, for
reports of loss of life have proved
inaccurate in some instances and
doubtless persons have been drown
ed in remote settlements and the
facts have not been made known.
The property loss last night was
conseryatively estimated at Sl,50O,OOO.
