Cottel, 6ats He's Haunted. Council
man Cottel wears a dejected, haggard ex
pression on his usually beaming counte
nance these days. He says he is deeply
troubled. Since introducing his celebrd
proposed ordinance, forbidding spiritualist-mediums,
clairvoyants and kindred
practitioners to engage in their business
here, he says he has suffered intensely.
"I never believed in spiritualistic teach
ins before," said Councilman Cottel yes
terday afternoon, "but since I introduced
that ordinance last Wednesday, somehow
I have felt that 1 am being haunted by
spirits. It seems to me that I can hear
voices calling me all the time, and the
telephone is constantly ringing; unknown
voices ask me queer questions, and 1 can
not understand It all. This morning I was
called to the phone, and a voice I had
never before, heard, asked me 'are you a
humanitarian?' and immediately hung up
the receiver. One sicial feature I do not
understand Is as to why, knowing all
things, past," present and future, the
spiritualists did not see ahead of time that
1 was going to introduce that ordinance
and have it stopped before."
