BISHOP COKE TO SATOLLI.


The Bishop Makes Public His Fourth
Letter TO Monsignor SutolIi on the
School Question.
BUFFALO, y. ", Dec. 30.--Bishop Coke
makes public, this morning, his fourth
letter to Monsignor Satolli, He selects for
his subject the schools and says that the
ablegate's party, fully realizing the fact
that votes can do more than bayonets, Just
now is bending every energy to that end.
VirgiPs Tale Of Troy Divine" the
bishop tsays, Is warning to great and
strong people against foreign Influence,
and he relates the story of the abegale
simon, who persuaded the Troians to adj
init great religious machine full of
Jesuits, with the reuslt that the city fell
into the hands of the Greeks.
The bishop likens Monsignor Satolli to
Simon, and says that the ablegate, in I'D
vising us to pull down our great bulwark,
the common school, and accept his ma.
chine instead, makes clear that what we
need in his opinion is the constitution ac-
eording to Sheehan and education accord
ing to Satolll.
With San Domingo. Mexico and South
America before the ablegate's eyes, re-
proach to his ideas of education that
smells to heaven, the bishop is astonished
that he should come to Washington to
build up u university to teach the United

ourselves and whose schools were not God.
less until Roman ecclesiastics forced the
politicians to take out of them the ten COM
mgndments and the Lords Prayer.
The bishopthen criticizes Father Pustet's
book designed for 1.-THE family and more
advanced student in Catholic schools and
colleges" and quotes literally from it to
show what, in his opinion, are its illiberal
and fallacious teachings.
In conclusion the bishop again reminds
the ablegate that he is wholly ignorant Of
the American people, their moral stand
ards, and their views Of mutual good will,
and Is not a proper person to give them
counsel i'll their own affairs.

MORTG AGE FORECLoSED.
The National switch and Signal Compan
of Easton, Pa, in Trouble.


EAsToN, Pa, Jan. 2.--This morning
the Easton Trust Company, as trustee
for the holders of $4,000 in bonds of
the National Switch and Signal Com
pany of South Easton, foreclosed the
mortgage, owing to the Switch Com
pany having defaulted on the payment
of the 81 500 interest due October 10th,
1898.
The company was started three years
ago. Thomas j. Swift of Poughkeepsie,
who disappeared recently, was manager
of the concern. The patents held by
the company and the plan of manufac-
ture gave great promise. The company
had capital Of 100000, with $195 900
paid in. The liabilities are about $780,
GOO, of which the bonds arc first liens.
The bouds are nearly all held by Oak
leigh Thorne of New York.
The company until recently employed
about 60 hands. The works were shut
down Saturday last. The concern will
be reorganlzed on a firm basis, so saw
the capitalists interested.
