NEGRO PEOPLE MAY " PROTEST PICTURE

 Evening at Church Meeting.

"The Birth of Nation," the pie ture which has caused so much furore throughout the country from the colored people in all cities where it has appeared, has been booked by the management of @ local playhouse to appear here the latter part of the month.
 Inquiry was made this afternoon of Rev. J. S. Gurley, pastor of the A. M. F. Zion church in Corbin Place, as to whether any action would be taken by the local colored population. He said in reply: "So far as I know, not as vet. I will bring the matter up be- fore a meeting of my people this evening and it will come up for dis cussion."
 Do you think they will vote to appeal to the authorities against US appearance here? asked a reported.
 Well, from what have heard about the picture there are number of parts of it that are not good" an- swered the pastor.
 Mayor Quigley was also interviewed in regard to the matter and he stated that if a complaint was made to hlm an investigation of the picture would be made.
 It will be remembered that several weeks ago this picture was snoWn III Hartford, and a protest was made to Mayor Lawlor, who allowed It's pre- sentation after several hundred feet of the objectionable features were eliminated.

 Their Honor.

New York, Nov. 5.-President Will son planned to spend the better part of today with Mrs, Norman Gait, his fancee, and relatives who are now in New York.

ULTERIOR MOTIVE SEEN
 IN GREENBERG PETITION
Judge Futile Dismisses Mo. ton Made By Former
 Local Doctor.

Judge Joseph P: Futile in superior court this morning refused to mod l ify the divorce decree granted Ma tilda E. Greenberg a week ago when she received a legal separation from
 Dr. John D. Greenberg, formerly of this city, which would permit him to
 see his child at place more suitable to his desires than the home of his former wife's mother. The applica- tlon of the decree was made by Alt torney F. B. Hungerford and was
 opposed by Attorney Sidney B. Clarke of Hartford, counsel for the woman. Attorney Hungerford also asked that his client be allowed to make monthly payments of the ali- mony instead of weekly as stipulated In the decree. To this Judge Tut tie replied that it was a matter that required no action by the court. Dr.
 Greenberg chose to pay the alimony monthly instead of weekly there could be no reasonable objection, providing g the payments were made in 8 lump and in advance. Otherwise the strict Interpretation of the decree must stand.
 Tn making his plea for the 1modifi-. cation of the decree, as it relates to pr. Greenberg seeing his child in the custody of the grandm other, Judge Hungerford said the decree stipulat- ed no particular place. It was ap- parent, however, that is is not de- sirable to go to his wife's home ow- ing to the ill feeling that exists be- tween the couple. He suggested that Dr. Greenberg would furnish an automobile each Sunday and convey the grandmother and child to his
 office on Main street or they could meet in the apartments of a Mrs.
 Jackson above the office.
 Attorney Clarke said the matter before the court had been presented
 to Judge Burpee last June when the first came up. Judge Burpee had placed the child in the custody of the grandmoth because pr. Greenberg then stated that he had the most kindly feeling towards the mother-in- law. Nothing had developed at the divorce trial to show that Mrs. Green berg had been responsible for the trouble that ensued and he felt that Judge Burpee's order should stand. In dismissing the motion, Judge | Futile said he felt that he had no right or power to force Mrs. Rich mond, the grandmother, to give up 1 her Sunday afternoons to any such purpose. He felt that pr. Green l berg's motive in this matter was de-
 signed to produce annoyance rather
 than for the purpose of seeing his l child Later when the child is older 1 it might be right and proper to
 amend the decree giving pr. Green | berg more liberty In the matter.

CONNECTICUT FRIDAY
BRITISH STEAMER
 REPORTED ON FIRE
Flames Aboard Rio Lages NJ Con- sidered Seriolls-NeW York Agents
  Deny Ship Carries Munitions.

fNew York, Nov. 5.-No word con- corning the British steamer Rio La ges, reported on fire 300 miles south of Halifax, N. S., had been received here today by the steamers local agents, Simpson, Spence and Young. The agents expressed the belief that the fire was not serious, as the Rio Lages apparently did not request the Frederik VIII, which sighted the dis tressed steamer, to stand by. but merely to notify Halifax by radio.
 Tho Rio Lages sailed from New York for Queenstown on Oct. 31, with a cargo of approximately 5000 tons of sugar. The local agents denied today that the steamer carried any munitions, saying the only cargo was sugar
 The Frederik VIII which left New York for Copenhagen Nov. 2, report ed sighting a steamer flying the sig nals "R. S. w. "" and receiving a radio from the freighter that she was on fire. The signals correspond to those of the Rio Lages.
 The local agents said they would wait for detailed report from the captain of the Rio Lages before ex- pressing an opinion as to the prob able cause of the fire aboard their steamer. The report of the fire, however, revived discussion in ship ping circles as to several previous fires aboard sugar ships. The ori- gin of all these fires was more or less mysterious but all of them were reported to have been caused by in cendiary or explosive bombs secreted in sugar bags.
 Two days ago fire, reported to have been incendary, was discovered in the cargo of sugar being loaded on the British steamer Euterpe at a. dock here. This sugar was con- signed to the British government.
