 Although threatened with the grip, Bishop Satterlee officiated at services last Sunday morning. Shortly after ward he became very i'll and pneumo- mia developed.

 Bishop Satterlee was formerly rec tor of Calvary church, in New York, was a religious writer of note and had been elected, but declined to accept the bishopric of Michigan and the bishop coadjutorship of Ohio.
 He was born in New York, January II, 1S43. He was a graduate of Colum- bia, Union and Princeton colleges. In 1865 he was made a deacon and two years later a priest.

 When Alice Roosevelt was married to Congressman Longworth it was Bishop Satterlee who was selected by Miss Roosevelt and her mother to officiate
 Bishop Satterlee recently created stir in Washington society when in an ad- dress before the convention of the dio- cese of Washington he severely crit icised the Washington smart set con demned in unneasured terms the prac- tices of society and declared that modern society was lacking in spirituality.
 Among his many able utterances was bitter attack upon rapidly growing dangers in the divorce evil. One of the causes which he blamed for this rapidly growing evid was the apartment house, of which he said
 Living in apartment houses undoubt- edly has a great many advantages, but as every thoughtful man can see at a glance. it destroys that strong home feel ing which breathes in the poems of Whittier and of Lowell; but undoubt ed1y the greatest of all forces that tend to the destruction of the home is the alarming increase of divorce.'

Quarrel Between Congressman and Newspaper Man NH
 Hasten Results
'qOU ARE 4 LIAR," SAYS
 MR LILLEY T0 MR. LORD
Charges Are Made That MT. Lllley Said Electric Boat Company Con-
 trbuted Funds To Both
 Parties for Campaign.

Washington. February 22--(Special.)- The scandal in Congress as the result or the action of the naval committee of thel House in rejecting the administration 1 naval programme and recommending two battleships instead of four and eight sub marines instead of four, reached the you are liar stage today Four newspaper men were denounced by Representative Lilley as men against whom he had been warned. The quarrel had its inception in a bitter controversy between Lilley snd Frank B. Lord, a correspondent who has the privilege of the floor.
 Lilley was quoted by the newspaper men he denounced as saying that the tor- pedo boat company had contributed $iO,OO0 to the republican and the democratic con- gresslonal fund. Representative Sherman, chairman of the republican committee, and Representative Griggs of the demo- cratic. both declared that the assertion was false. Mir. Lilley stated that he never made this charge and declared the news paper men referred 10 were in the pay of the Electric Boat company and were using foul methods. Lord denounced Lilley, but
  tion of the days happenings Lilley held a conference with Speaker Cannon, and agreed to put his charges against the Electric Boat company into writing and submit them at an early date to the com mttee on rules. Shortly after the House met Chairman Griggs secured Lord and number of witnesses and confronted Lilley. Lilley first accused Lord of being in the employ of the Electric Boat com pany and this Lord denied, but he ac- knowledged the authorship of several ar ticles in question The newspaper man followed up his remarks by declaring Lii- ley had made the charges against Sher- man and Griggs.
 You are a larla Lilley exclaimed.
 Lord retorted that Lilley was taking undue advantage of his being on the floor of the House.
 Immediately aftcrward Grlggs issued n statement in which he said
 "The story attributed to Representative Lilley in the Washington Herald of this morning, insofar as 1t affects me. is & deliberate unqualified and malicious lie. MT. I.illey told me in the presence of tine author of the story that it was an unqual- flied lie and that the author of 1t was a liar, preceded by adjeetives that l do not care to quote"
 MT. Lilley gave out statement. say- ing:
 'I have never made any assertion that the Holland Boat company had subscribed to Mr. Shermans campaign expenses What did say was that rumors are afioat that the Holland Boat company has sub scrbed to individual and party campaign funds. When the Investigating committee is appointed the facts will all come oye.

 Union labor organizations are indors- ed when they tend to bring about just distribution of wealth." and laws for an eight-hour work day, the enforced use of safety appliances in industrial under takings, and the right of trial by jury in contempt cases are favored.

Result of Interview Is Expected To Be
 An Investigation.

Washington, February 2-Representa-
 tive Lilley of Connecticut today inter-i viewed Speaker Cannon, chairman of the
 committee on rules. as to what action would be taken by that committee on his, resolution for the appointment of a spe-i cial committee of five members of the{ House to investigate the methods em-l ployed by the Electric Boat company to- secure the indorsement of the Octopus type of submarine boat by the committeei on naval affairs. It is understood thati the speaker told MT. Lilley that the rules committee had not yet considered the resolution at all. When MT Lilley qtiti the speakers room he left behind him ths
 impression that he would reduce to writ ing his request to be heard by the com- mttee in sugstantiation of his published charges that members of the naval conl-
 mttee were subjected to improper infu- ences by representatives of the Electric Boat company.
 Tn attitude of individual members ofl the rules committee Is understood to bs that some such substantiation must pre- cede favorable report of the resolution of investigation.
