Mr. Satterlee, when death came to him, was seated at his desk writing a letter. The news of his death was a shock to all who knew him although he had been fesble for some years. Charles A. Satterlee was born in Gales Ferry Sept. 17, 1835, where he attended the public school and obtained his ele- p|mentary education.

FOREIGN LANGUAGE PAPER I8 A MENACE At the Sunday evening service 6f the Central Baptist church Professor Man- gano of New York who is interested in the Americanization movement delivgred a very instructive addrrss on Chrigtian Ameridanization. Prof. Manpano was born in Italy but has given lis life to the Christian Americanization of his fellow. countrymen who comi: to the land of vromige. With Prof. Mangano were twe of his pupils who repeated the 23rd pslam in Ttalfan. In his address Professor Mangano sald that America has had a wonderful benefi- clent influence on the world and all na- tions look tothisnation asa haven of re- fuge and a land they can develop. But the war showed there Were those in America who were not of America. These peo- ple were here utilizing the benefits of America But yet were hostile towards her. The wealth and prosperity of America Is due in a farge way to the foreigner. The difficulty in the past has been that we did not concern ourselves with the individual forelgners but con- sidered them as a class and gave them a little community here and there of their own. We did nothing to educate them as the draft has shown. They live in their own foreign quarters and learn only enough English to get a job, They have their own newspapers and 'their own churches. They do not ‘mingpe wWith Americans. How can we expect any- thing of them under these conditions? The forelzn language newspaper is & menace. I do not anprove of aholishing the newspaper but there should be a weeding out of the fanatical editors and radicals, These fofelgn papers today are printing diabolical statements about the governmen:, The anarchist leader finds fertile soil among these classes in which to sow his seeds of discord. This i because these Deople have never been told about democracy. Democracy and Christianity go hlmd in hand and the foreigner can not under- stand democracy untll he has been Christianized so it follows that this m: be a campalgn of Christian Americaniza tion. B SUB BASE WESSENGER ROBBFD NEAR WATERBURY Edward J. Bender, a naval messenger en route from New London to Buffalo, N. Y., was held up by six armed men on tha new Thomaston road about eight miles from Waterbury Sunday night apd robbed of 62 special discharges which he was carryving to the naval officer in charge at Buffalo. Bender told the police that he had stopped over at Watertown, near Water- bury, to visit friends, having sufficient traveling 4tme to do =0, and that he had arranged with an automobile to carry him to Danbury where he was to have taken the train for Buffalo. While walk- ing to the place where he Was to hava mat the automobile driver, Bender said he was halted by the six men who re- lieved him of his navy evercoat, his watch, & sum of money and the special dicharges. The bandlts had barricaded the road with sticks of cordwood and had backed an automobile off the road behind some bushes. After releasing him the bandits climbed into their car and drove away.

M. H. May, Sunday morning at the 7.30 mass. Father May had read gospel for the Sunday, Luke fi, i-6, was preaching on the warning of John in the desert, ¥e the way of the Lord; make straight His paths. Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low.” This-is the warning which Holy Church has been sounding in the ears f_her children throughout Advest—ad- monishing each to make straight the path to his heart, that when In spirit the Christ-Child 18 born again on Christ- mas morning in the manger, He may be born also In the heart which has been to recelve Him.

Drake of No. 17 Battery place, New York. Appointment of the three appraisers will be made at. the meeting ,this afternoon. The vote on the claims was announced as follows by Referee Shields: P. Leroy Harwood, $18.394.18; James H. Swan, $1,531,067.06. Among the larger claims presented were the following: C. W. Morse & Co., Inc., $1,516,980.10; the Eastern Connecticut Power Co., $20,- 761; Travelers’ Bank . and Trust Co., $10,000; A. B. Sands & Co.. $1.369.46; Virginia Shipbuilding Corp., $1,304.28. The Morse interess were represented by Attorney George M. Durditt of New York; tne Eastern Connecticut Power Co. was represented by Attorney Charles B. Whittlesey ; Travelers’ Bank and Trust Co., by Attorney Eric Graham, and other claims were looked after by. Attorney William Z. White, Judge E. Calkins, Ed- ward Loughlan, Attorney Lee and Attor- ney Charles L. Stewart. Objections were made against allowing the claim of the Power Co. on the ground that the amount, $20,671, was greatly in excess of the amount on the prpted list, $5,000. The increase was pexplained by the fact that the iron works has been and is still recelving power from the Eastern Con- necticut Power C). Attorney Whittlesey e i G is mot as“high as it could have been made under the terms of a contract which the power company had with the Groton Iron works. Mr. Swan offered the information that the power was still on at the plant and that a small amount of power is used monthly. He said the power bill was pall according to the s of the contract and not according 0 meter readings. and that the amount called for under the contract was $2.500 a month as a minimum.rate and that the Groton Tron works had paid such part of the power bill as It was able to. Attorneys Lee, Loughlan and White argued against the appointment of Mr. Swan as trustee owing to the fact that he is the present temporary receiver, a former president of the Groton Iron works, and is vitally interested in the affalrs of the company. The attorneys were of the oninion®that the creditors would not be proverly represented in the appointment of Mr. Swan. Mr. Swan said he did wot seek the appointment but had been asked by some of the creditors to serve in that capacity. Attorney Burditt argued against the nominatior; of Mr. Harwood because of his former connection with the Groton Iron works. Mr. Harwood for nearly a vear was one of the two receivers. Attorney Burditt sald that on account of Mr. Harwood's previous connection with the' Emergency Fleet corporation he would not be acceptable as trubtee. Attorney Loughlan, who represented some of the small unsecured claims, as well as several secured claims. said that the only known assets of the Groton Iron works were the shipyard, which repre- sented about half a million dollars, and the claim against the Emergency Fleet corporation, the amount of which could not be told. The liabilities represented over two millions of doltars. He had made two visits to Wathington and while there he gained the impression from rep- resentatives of the shipping board that the unseeured claims would not fare bad- ly if a man were appointed who was in No way controlled by the Morse interests. J. H. Buck, 1 spresenting one of the se- cured creditors, asked if Attorney Lough- lan remembered the conversation. Attor- ney Loughlan said there were four rep- resentatives of the shipping board in the room and t/at he would let any comment from the shipping board come from them. The shipping board representatives vol- unteered no information. The hearing came to a close about 1.15 o'clock, -adjourning until this afternoon at 2 o'clock.
