DIVISION OF DIOCESE
 TO BE CONSIDERED
One of Several Important Matters for
 Episcopaiians to Discuss.

The Episcopalians of the state are greatly interested in the diocesan con- vention. which will meet in St. Pauls church, New Haven, on June 8. and which will last for two days, at least, and possibly three, because of the i'm portance of the matters before it. For one thing, the general convention of the Protestant Episcopal church in the United States will be held next Octo- Der and the delegates who will rep resent Connecticut churehmanship will be selected at the meeting in New Haven.
 More important than that. so far as this diocese is concerned. is the Gues- ton of relieving Bishop c B. Brew ster of a part of the burden which he is now carrying
 Bishop Brewster has recently ad- dressed an open letter to the clergy and laity in which he still urges the election of bishop suffragan, rather than bishop coadjutor. partly, it may be, because he can receive relief more promptly inasmuch as the election of a bishop coadjutOr would require &C., tion by the general convention and, too. Bishop Brewster is unwilling to ask for a coadjutor "on the ground of age, or other physical infirmity."
 There is, however, another course suggested this year and that is the division of the diocese For some years Bishop Brewster had been in favor of this action and the clergy and laity have been fairly unanimous against it, but it is said that the sen timent in favor of division has grown of late. It is now asserted that some of the Episcopalians in the southwest ern part of the state have declared in favor of an arrangement which will create q new diocese composed of tYfi al fyyA Haven county towns in the Nauga- tuck Valley. so as to include Water bury, thus leaving the rest of the state for the old diocese.
 Assuming what Is still unlikely, that the convention of next month agrees to this change, 1t would be com pelled to establish new speed rec ord, if it agreed to the change and fully defined the boundaries of the new diocese. Unless 1t did this, the plan could not be presented to the general convention of next October: if this was not done the matter would lie over for the action Of the next tri- years before Bishop Brewster received any relief through the division of the diocese.
 The plan of the election of bishop suffragan is the one likely to be adopt ed though even at that, it is possible that the clergy and laity would pre- fer to name a coadjutor bishop.
 Another topic which is likely to bring about some debate is the chronic one of changing the title of the church to the American Catholic Church, or some equivalent.
 Still another subject will be that of a cathedral parish, upon which mat ter q report will be made at the con- vention, the one of last year having continued it.

An adjourned meeting of the New Lendon county members of the general assembly was held Tuesday afternoon in the county room of the state capl- tol to hear and act upon the report of the committee appointed a week ago to investigate and consider the propo- sition of the county commissioners to purchase an addition to the property of the county home in Preston.

CLOSING PASsAIc PLANT
 OF FINISHING COMPANY.
Curtaiiments Made in Concern AL ready Amount to $ffo,e0o Year Meeting of Stockholders Soon.


 Concerning the sending of the bus mess of the Passfac branch Of the U. ;. Finishing company to other branch es New York despatch on Tuesday said:
 The Passiac branch of the United states Finishing company, which is gradually being closed for an indeh- nlte period, was at one time one of the most popular branches of the sev- eral controlled by the corporation. It has not been so profitable as some of the others, and in time of limited bus mess 1t naturally. cannot be operat- ed so satisfactorily as some of the other plants. Injurious reports have been set afoot concerning the causes Tor the closing of the plant and yes- tefday, President H. M. Thompson made statement which should set at rest many ill-founded rumors.
 Superintendent Bryce of the Passia c branch Is to assume charge of the Sil- yer Springs branch at Providence, vice MT. Hobbs, who resigned He will doubtless take with him several of the skilled employees of the Passiac branch. It is designed by this change to op- crate some plants in full instead of many plants in part, so that a greater degree of efficiency may be secured without any deterioration in the char 6ctef of the work, or any needless abandonment of property. Customers of finishing D ant come to have a preference for the work of one plant or another ,and to avoid any friction or probable loss of trade every pos- sible important customer of the con- pany was consulted before the change was determined upon.
 A meeting of stockholders will be called in the near future and a call is IS expected to be issued within a few days. It is hoped to accomplish the appointment of a stockholders con- mittee to act with the creditors com mlttee for the conservation and opera ton of the plants pending the adoption of some plan of reorganization. At the present time the plants are being operated at a known saving of S11O,- 900 annually and many more import ant economies have been adopted within the past two or three weeks which will still further assist stock holders in concluding to hold on to their equity to sustain the assets of an intangible character that, pass quickly if customers are not looked after steadily
 The inter- competition between the finishing company's plants has been stopped and what is of stin greater importance, the seconds" have been cut down fully one-half in an opera tion of hardly two months by a new management. It is generally accept ed as true in the trade that business IS slow, yet the company has not lost any of it customers and it has gained some. The new management has done a great deal in limited time to in spire a greater measure of confidence in the American finishing business and in the wisdom of not fighting to get work to do at a loss
