CORK. October 1s.-The condition
of the Irish hunger strikers in Cork
Jail has become worse as the result
of depression caused by the death
Sunday of Michael Fitzgerald. first Of
the eleven to succumb.
Joseph Murphy who was very low
Monday, has rallied as the result OF
medical treatment. but his case Is
still regarded as the most critical.
Severe collapses were suffered by
two of the strikers. Donovan and
Kenny, early this morning. Sean
Hennessy, Reilly and Upton are also
in critical state.
Church Heavily Guarded.
To prevent Irish Volunteers from
marching in the funeral procession Of
Fitzgerald when his body was remov-
ed this afternoon from the church
here to Fermoy. a large force of mill
tary surrounded the church and six
lorry loads of soldiers and an ar
mored car fell in behind the mourn
ers' carriages following the coffin.
In the business streets through
which the procession passed great in
dignation was expressed among the
people at the military display, fever

MacSwiney. in Brixton prison, today
dictated the following telegram to
the hunger strikers in Cork:
NO tears, but Joy for our comfade
who was ready to meet his God and
die for his country. He has joined
the immortals and will be remember
ed forever. We do not know who is
to be. the second to step in the path
of Immortality, but by offering unre-
served sacrifice we are safeguarding
the destinies of Ireland"
The Evening News says today it
understands MacSwiney has reached
point where .critical collapse is
likely to occur. The newspaper quotes
a prison official as saying:
''Stimulants cannot do much for
him, and should he collapse it would
be difficult to apply restoratives as
in the case of normally healthy per-
son. 1 think this week will see a
great change for the worse in his con-
dition."
