the whole-heartedness for which he was
always noted he threw himself body
and soul into the work. bringing out
a spiritual renaissance such as Calvary
Church and the East Side had never
experienced.
Declined Three Bishoprics.
1t was during this rectorate that
Bishop Satterlee. wrapped up in the
work about him. refused the office of
bishop coadjutor Of Ohio in 1883, and
the bishopric of Michigan in 1899. He
was also chosen missionary bishop 10
Japan, but declined that office. In 1886
he was offered the place of the first
bishop OF Washington. and since that
time has been one Of the leaders in
church work at the Capital.
Although a deeply spiritual man,
Bishop Satterlee was not prelate who
overlooked the value Of practicabiIity.
He communed with the. best IN his fell
low-man ard at the same time had an
understanding OF the other side OF his
nature. He was a man who tried 10
influence by the eloquence of silent ex-
ample. and yet was never found lack
ing when words of sympathy or en-
those less fortunate or weaker than
himself. To younger clergymer g was
his delight TO DC an inspiration. No one
ever came TO Bishop Satterlee in the
moment Of doubt, trial, or perplexity
without leaving with a feeling that he
had been helped to see things in a bet
ter light and had been benefited by his
visit
IT was the general recognition Of his
great ability. his faith. his oUtspoken
manner when the cause of the Master
demanded, that has caused layman and
minister alike to pay tribute to his
memory and send expressions Of SYM
pathy.
His Plea for Armenians.
One OF the great service. OF .Bishop
Satterlee's life. and OF which. owing
10 his modesty, many of his friends
have never heard, was the presentation
TO the Car of Russia in 1886 of a petit
ton from 100000 Christian Americans.
asking that the atrocities in Armenia
be stopped. The petition was signed
by the Archbishop of Canterbury and
church dignitaries of England ana
America, including thousands of lay
men who stood aghast at the massacre
Of the helpless Armenians.

his First Achievement.

Bishop Satterlee's first achievement in
the work he had chosen came soon
after his seminary degree. when. ia 1866,
he was appointed TO the assistant rec
torship Of Zion Church at Wappingers
Fails, n. Y. Here he labored until
1874, when he became rector, and from
that time until 1852, whea he moved
70 a wider field in New York, Zion
Church experienced a growth, a restora-
Sion such as 1t had never known before
In the latter field, as rector Of Cal
wary Church, his ability again came 10
the fore. and from the day upon which
he came to preside over It until he was
called to the bishopric Of Washington.
In 1886. Calvary Church felt the stimulus
OF his wonderful influence and became
one Of the most progressive religious
institutions in New York.
During his stewardship there as rec
tor, Bishio Satterlee was especially &C

drowned today. At that time both
were swept over the 14-foot dam, but,

Suspension Of Oriental
Brings DefaIcatiOn
Before Public.

NEW YORK, Feb, IAN embezzler
to the extent of about S4s,0 0o, a trusted
of the closed Oriental Bank, is a
fugitive. The peculation was discov-
cred two months ago. after the clerk
had fed, and a full confession is in
the hands of President Hugh Kelly.
Bank Examiner Williams was told
OF the embezzlement as soon as the
discovery was made, and consented to
allow the amount to be charged off.
The loss fell upon the stockholders.
The clerk is said to have lost a large
amount in Wall Stree speculations.
and more was spent in Broadway upon
a chorus girl. This defalcation had
not the slightest influence in closing
the bank.
Tie Oriental's depositors are praeti-
cally sure to get 100 cents on the dol
lar. There are 81, 500, 900 in excess of
the total deposit tied up in good Sc
curities and other investments.

ROOSEVELT is THE
LINCOLN OF TODAY.
London Editor Lauds President for
"Audacious Spirit" Evinced in
His Special Message.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-The Times in ar
editorial this morning on President
Roosevelt's message to Congress, says
Nobody expected President
Roosevelt to be much frightened
by the charges that the recent
financial crisis was an outcome of
his energetic action; out few per-
sons thought he would take up the
challenge in the ~audacious spirit of
his latest message.
He, indeed, Is so far from show
ing any signs of penitence that he
filings back taunt for taunt into his
opponents faces and, further. takes
occasion to read to his c~ountFymen
such a lesson on their financial and
political methods as they never
would stand from any foreigner
and rarely, II eve heard from one
OF themselves.
Ills pluck and persevering
courage never have been so strik-
ingly demonstrated as on this oc-
casion. Roosevelt has been the
first since Lincoln's day to see that
the responsibilities of the United
States on the American continent
and in the world demand greater
earnestness in treatment"

weeks Rachel schleifer had Joseph
Finkeistein arrested for the larceny Of

became tired of single b~lessedness and
that Finkelstein agreed to furnish her

the money. she says, and received the
husband. but three weeks later he
deserted her, taking the family iewelry
with him. She accused FinlSelstein of
having lured the husband away.
Finkelstein denied this. and said that
the S12 he received was not for fur
nishing the husband, but for paying
the board bill, which the husband owed
him. Finkelstein was discharged.

Likes Them.

So much has been heard of the pay
as-you-enter cars, which are coming
to this city within the next four weeks,
that an EVENING STAR mar dropped
in on Colonel Hine, Of the Public Sery-
ice Corporation Today and listened to
what he had to say ~aboutthcm.
Colonel said the reporter, when
are these new-fangled cars coming TO
this city,
You mean the cars that make you
pay before o can get in?' he cor
rected. well. we expect the samp.c
car along here neXt week. No, we ara
not going la use this one for the p1r-
pose of educating our patrons. Tho
thing is easy" and then. by way OF
illustration. the colonel unpacked his
cigar-box and, with the ease of
banker and the manner of a bon vivant,
he handed ove a long weed to the
visitor. Il like to talk about cars, but
really there is nothing to say just now
about these now cars.
Tn the middle of the month we viii
have fifty of them here, and perhaps
two weeks later we will have fifty
more, and that, / think, will be enough
for Il while"
what lines are you going to put
them on?" was the next question put
to the colonel.
why, we will only use them on lines
where there is very light congestion at
the terminals. And | might add that
we will o start any of these cars
until we have enough to supply some
one line. The public will be given
every opportunity to test their advan-
tages, and we hope that they will meet
a long-felt want in this community cs-
pecialIy.'
General superintendent r. E. Dam
forth could add nothing to the c%oloneF5
remarks. He did say, however, that
he expected. when the full order for
the new style of cars vas filled. that
there would be $50 of them running
