PLAN MONSTER FUNERAL FOR MISS EMILY WILDING DAVISON Miss Emily Wilding Davison. London, June 9. The first woman to give her life to the cause of suffrage was Miss Emily Wilding Davison, who died late yesterday at Epsom Cottage Hospital as a result of the injuries she received when she attempted to grasp the bridle of the king's horse in last week's derby. At the headquarters of the Women's Social and Political Union in King's Way, the flag is at half mast In honor of the dead woman. The suffragets are planning for the biggest-funeral that London ever saw, not even excepting that of the late King Edwaid VIL It is their intention to make the death of Miss Davison the most impressive object lesson Great Britain has had for a generation, bringing home to every man and woman in the United Kingdom the realization that the women's battle for ike ballot Is a real revolution and not opera bouffe and story book Warfare The coffin of Miss Davison, lying in the hospital, was covered with the suffraget colors, white and yellow, and a guard of militants surrounded the building, all of them wearing mourning bands about their sleeves.

It is possible that Home Secretary McKenna may forbid a public funeral, and Scotland Yard is-waiting instructions. NINE OFFICIALS OF UNITED MINEWORKERS INDICTED Charleston, W.Va., June 9.
