MOURNING MASS
IN n. !. GHETTO
MOB POLICE
Tens Of Thousands, at Funeral Of
Stage Hero, Attack Guards
in Grief and Fury.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.--One of the
most remarkable demonstrations in
the history of New York, in which the
play of human emotions ran from
grief to blind rage, occurred here to-
day in connection with the funeral
OF Sigmund Mogulesko, a Jewish Co
median and the idol Of the sYiddish
stage
Tens of thousands Of Jews gath
cred at No. 10S Second avenue, where
the funeral services were conducted
and stood in the street with barred
heads while the rabbi chanted the
funeral rites inside. Tens Of thous-
ands of others attracted by the enor-
nous crowd. Joined the throng and
soon all the streets in that section OF
the Ghetto were damned by a silent,
mourning mass Of humanity.
When the corpse was carried from
the house the crowds broke through
the lines marked by forty policemen
and, with cries of grief, struggled
around the hearse.
In vain did the policemen attempt
10 open a lane for the pallbearers. A
call was sent for reserves and a de-
tachment Of mounted policemen
dashed up
The attempts Of the policemen to
push back the weeping men and wo-
men enraged the mourners. Cries Of
grief changed to bowls of rage. The
mob rolled against the foot and
mounted policemen in an irresistible
wave, brushing them back. After a
fierce struggle in which scores were
dubbed, a lane was opened through
Second avenue and the funeral car
riages were enabled to proceed
