BANKS, BONDS NOT FILED.

Hartford, Nov. 4.-Bank Commfs- sioner E. J. Sturges has received from persons living in Waterbury and Tor ringtCn complaints that private banks in operation in those towns for which the bond required by law had not been filed with the state treasurer. These banks do not come within the jurisdiction of the banking depart ment and the commissioner had no authority to take action on the com plaints. He turned them over to Superintendent Egan of the state po- lice who will investigate the state ments contained in them and if he finds the persons not in the complaints have been conducting private banks contrary to law he will take steps to have them prosecuted

REV. E. [. ACHESON
 SUFFRAGAN BISHOP
(Continued From First Page.)

Preceding the exercises there was holy communion for the clergy and students of Berkeley Divinity school
 a. the chapel of St. Luke, and for the parishioners of Bishop Acheson's for mer parish, and invited guests at the Church of the Holy Trinity. Later morning prayer was held in the church, this service being the last at tended by Bishop Acheson in his ca pacity as rector.
 Regret Word Protestant.
 In his sermon Bishop Lines said he regretted that the name Profess tant occupied such prominent place in the title of the church, as it has taken too much time to defend it. He asserted that if the church was to retain it's leaderships, it must snow it's efficiency. The church had arous- ed prejudice by trying to be ex- elusive. The value of the church should be in it's willingness to serve. The danger lay in the neglect of this. He spoke of the lack of interest of the people in the work of the church and said it was caused by too close alliance with privileged people, and a scant sense of broth erhood.
 It was the custom, he said to decry labor troubles but the church forgot the buying of legislatures, the wreck ing of railroads and the corruption of cities and towns, which was the real menace to the church and re- ligion.

Allies Gain in Macedonia.

London, Nov. 4, 12:12 p. m.-While the Serbians are fighting doggedly to keep the way open for their retreat into Montenegro their Franco-British allies are beginning to make their presence felt in Macedonia, where, according to unofficial reports, they have gained a success on the Istip front.
 The Serbian army is retreating steadily towards it's central defenses but it's fighting qualities apparently have not been seriously impaired by the tremendous battering it has re- ceived from the invaders.
 Bulgarians Thrown Back. The only success for the Serbians by Berlin is one along the Nishava river, where the Bulgarians have been thrown back towards Palanka by ''su- perior forces;" but the invaders now are only twelve miles from the tenn porary Serbian capital and a check along the Nishava is not likely to give the harrassed defenders much respite. .#~..
 From Bucharest comes a report that the Russians are concentrating great forces at the Port of Reni, in Bessara bia. from which place they are expected to make a direct landing on Bulgarian territory if Rumania gives an interpretation of the interna- tionalization of the river. Danube friendly to Russia, by which men and munitions may be conveyed by the river into Bulgaria..
 Russians Claim Successes. Along the eastern front Russia con- tinues to claim a series of successful attacks on the Austro- German posi- tions. From the most northerly point along the eastern battle line comes report, which has a Russian source, that the German commander. Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, despairing of the capture of Riga and Dvinsk, is preparing winter quarters near his l present position along that front The new government regulations 1 relative to British shipping are excit- l ing great interest in trade circles where the policy already has encoun- | tered much opposition.

so. CHURCH SOCIETY
 EIGHTY YEARS OLD


 Monthly Meetings Without Break
 of any Kind for that Period.
 The Maternal Association of the South church, which held its month ly meeting in the chapel yesterday afternoon, when Mrs. F. H. Churchill spoke in 8 reminiscent vein of the early meetings of the organization and the influence they hold today on the lives of the members, is prepar- ing to celebrate its eightieth anni- versary. This event will take place next March.
 Although comparatively few peo- pie are aware of the fact, the Ma ternal Association was formed in March, 1886, and during the eighty years which have since passed month Iy meetings have been held without break of any kind. This Is a re- rnarkable record even for a church society and while the membership has never been large much interest has been manifested in the associa- ton and its work. The association was organized in the days when wo- mans sphere was much narrower than today and it's aim was to teach mothers that the word motherhood meant more than the ordinary defi- milton conveys. That it has suc- ceeded in accomplishing its aim is the firm belief of the present day members and its ideals are still based on the same principals as when it was formed although vast changes have taken place in the world since then and woman's position has been reyolutioniZed,

the allied industries and shipping,
thus robbing any such coastal attack
of any value.
Aside from this, l believe the army
and navy should be largely increased
and all its services brought to COM
plete strength and that each state
should be required to maintain an en-
tire army unit of horse, foot, artillery,
engineers and commissary and all the
varied activities which would make
each independent and capable of
great expansion.
Then a radial system of war
camps, from which large sectors of
coast could be watched and reached,
should be established behind the Cas-
cades and Appalachians, as well as in
Texas and central points, and all fac
tors be trained to rendezvous, while
our systems of transportation should
be conformed to these plans, for of
what avail a large force if we could
not get them, armed and provisioned,
to the crucial point at the right time?
Let the regulars specialize in en-
cheering, mechanics, commissary
and aeronautics and working plans OF
notifications, and the country will
give them a backing of infantry on
time.
But there is a smacking of pater-
nalism, of government ownership or
control in all this, at which many will
shy and we will have an organization
of armed men rather than a reor-
ganization of resources and men.
Of equal Importance with the fore
going would be the forming of mill

ings and requests at least should
reach the people and their congress,
