 LAND AFFECTED
Part of Nine Hole Area Is Included in Proceedings
 for Foreclosure

Part of the nine hole area of the Matatuck Country Club is included among the 40 acres of land that IS involved in the foreclosure action begun to-day in the common pleas court by Charles J. Mccarthy, Ful- Ter street merchant, against the Country Club and the Merchants Trust Company.
 Foreclosure of a $6,90O mortgage is sought in the complaint. It is re- ported that in the 40 acres are sev- eral holes of the golf course.
 The mortgage was placed on the property in 1919 to former owners. bartholomew and Rosina Quarando. In 1924 the Mattatuck Country Club acquired the property by deed from David B. Meth, William Wallace and Layton A. Rose. The note is in de- fault for non-payment of interest from March 12, 1884, to September l2, 1885. Taxes to the Town of Wol- colt are also owed, says the com plaint.
 The Merchants Trust Company has a $12,1O second mortgage on the property, assigned to the bank by Arthur F. OLeary. In addition to foreclosure, the plaintiff seeks the appointment of 8 receiver. Attorney Terrence c. Carmody of Carmody and Thoms brings the action for the plaintiff.

but officials insisted on stating that the death might have been either suicide or murder"
 Authorities thought 1t significant that Stern was living in Newark, to which city Flegenheimer had gone to plead to charges of income tax evasion and where he met death.
 With Amberg Gang.
 Stern first became known figure in the New York underworld In August 1884 when he was accused of having shot Patrolman John J. Fraser. Fraser paid with his life Tor attempting to interrupt store hold up. The youthful gunman, according to police, then allied himself with the powerful Amberg gang In Brooklyn. He broke with them and subsequently, was accused of having shot and killed Benjamin Holinsky and Frank Dolak, fellow-members of a kidnap mob. Fear that they might betray him to police was said to have led him to cut them down.
 Next he turned his attention to the Ambergs whom he also feared because of his break with them, police claim.
 Joseph Amberg and his chauffeur, Morris Kessler, died in the fashion of the St. Valentine massacre in Chicago. Lined up against Q garage wall they were riddled with bullets. Harold Brooks, another member of Stern's one-time, kidnap mob. was the next to go. He was shot m the presence of scores of witnesses but the assassin, said by police to have been Stern, escaped.
 The seven slayings, led oil by the death of Louis (Pretty) Amberg, were the most recent charged to the gunman and brought Stern to the headlines for the first time.
 Two men were in the execution squad that moved down Flegen- heimer and his lieutenants. Otto Berman. Leo Frank and Bernard Rosenkrantz, in the Palace Chop House and tavern Wednesday night and police theorixed that either one of the gunman had time to cross to Manhattan to do the barbershop shootings.
 In the latter case. the casualties were Martin Krompier, Flegenheim- er,s chief aide, and Sam Gold. . friend of Krompier's. Krompier's wounds may prove fatal.
 Police were inclined to believe that Johnny Torrio. one-time noe torious Chicago underworld leader. might be heading the syndicate that wishes the elimination of Flegen' helrner and others In order to take over the multi-millionaire raek- eteering bisiness they controlled.

found in Wednesdays Italian plea that the date for application of League sanctions be postponed un- til pending negotiations could be completed and conclusively in to- day's-in- -the-open naneuver for peace. More than ever, 1t has be- come evident that the major battle of the Ethiopian campaign now is being fought on the European diplo- matic front.
 Italy hopes for concessions from the Ethoiopian government which will permit 8 peaceable solution of the crisis that now involves all Eu- rope, 1t was indicated today.
 There is hope also, 1t IS under stood, that Great Britain and France, acting unofi1cially as agents of the league of nations, may agree to concessions which Italy would regard as satisfactory.
 Premier Benito MusSolinis own newspaper, Popolo D'Italia of Milan in an editorial disclosed the hope that in the eventual arrangement to be reached to end the undeclar- ed war in Ethiopia there may be g re-allotment of colonial territory which is admittedly a necessity fol crowded Italy.
 Emperor May Agree
 Some quarters express belief that Emperor Halle Selassie. might agree eventually to accept the loss of ter ritory in north and south which is at present occupied by Italy.
 Such a concession, 1t was com mented, might lead the league of nations to revise its anti-Italian penalties.

 The treasury issued an order that financial sanctions against Italy should be applied beginning Oct 20.
 The treasury order stipulates that violators of the financial sanctions are liable to a maximum prison sentence of two years or maximum fine of 100 pound sterling ($9O ol both. The order details at length pro- hibitions and exemptions to tho sanctions. The exemptions include remittance of funds, the purchase and sale of currencies, stocks, shares bonds, payment of interest, divi. dends, coupons, customary settle ments of account in connection witt insurance contracts, transactions or the stock exchange and railway clearings.

WORKER KILLED
IND|ST|LLERY
FLAMES

PEORIA, July % 0.N.SJ.-One
man, John Barton, 32-year-old
laborer, was killed in the fire that
destroyed the mammoth whisky
plant of Hiram Walker Company
here early today with an esti-
mated loss of $2,700, 900.
1t was definitely established
that Barton was killed in the fire,
as a number of fellow workmen
saw him in the building as they
ran to safety. A search of the
smoking ruins for his body was
being made.
Police, fire marshals and the
coroner's office began an investi-
cation into the tragedy.
The one victim of the fire was
employed by Val Jobyt ar . Sons,
contractors who were working in
the building.
From the first stories told by
workmen, they had been sum-
moned for an overtime job to re-
pair a sagging wall in the rack
house where 100000 gallons of
whisky and liquor had been stored
to age.
Some of the workmen noted the
wall was buckling slowly at first
and left the building to seek
safety. Barton was the only one
left when the wall finally gave
way with a terrific crash.
After the wall crashed the
whisky caught fire and the fierce
flames from the burning alcohol
threw a greenish yellow tinge
over the scene.
The flames spread with rapidity
to other sections of the huge
Dlant.
