A committee from Catholic Union

Catholic Club held a meeting last night
at the club house of tile latter in West
avenue. and talked over the matter of
merging ole two organizations into

it is not known by what name the
big organization would be known. it
would still be affiliated with the
Knights of Columbus, but it was said
this morning that possibly the name
would be changed to Catholic Club
Council, Knights of Columbus. The
Knights of Columbus is a national or-
ganization and the membership is of
two classes, insurance and associate.
The joulng of the two would make a
strong organization.

NEW SENATE DISTRICTS.
Norwaik Models Separate One and
Bridgeport Divided.
The Senate took from the table yes-
terday the committee report dividing
the state into 35 Senatorial districts.
Senator Wilcox. chairman. offered an
amendment that Norwalk as it was in
JanuAry. 1903. be in one. district. This
is to avoid any misunderstanding aris-
ing from the contest over the division
of the town of Norwalk. The amend-
ment was adopted as was also one di-
viding Bridgeport into three districts
adn another dividing New Haven into
four districts, as provided in the so-
called lsbell plan. No opposition
was made to either of these three
amendments. Senator Bradstreet. of
Thomas'ton. introduced an amendment
providing for 36 Senatorial districts in-
stead of 35 making an alteration in
New London county districts and sub-
stituting the Pratt plan for the Scoville
pain for dividing Lilchfleld county.
Senator Bradstreet then asked that. his
amendment be rejected and that the
whole matter be assigned as the spec-
ial matter for Thursday next. Chair-
man Wilcox opflhed any rurther delay
in redistricting: Senator Bradstreet's
motion was carried.
The amendment fixing the Bridge-
port districts makes voting districts 1
to 5 the First district; voting districts
6. 7. 8 and 11. the Second district; and
voting districts 9. 10 and 12 the Third
district. ..

SOUTHPORT. May 27.—There is no
lllll in the interest, ominous as it is ov-
er the conditions of Southport Nation-
al bank. nor do the people cease to com-
ment on the situation. Like most sen~
stations. the appalling effect has given
place to the time honored arguments of
the “I told you so" delegation and con
siderable severe criticism is being in-
dulged in over the condtlct of those
forming the board of directors from
time to time, some of whom are criti-
cised for “sneaking away. one by one"
when conditions pointed to dangerous
practices "without arraigning U. T.
Shcrwood.”
The bank examiner here previous to
and at the time of the defaulter's de-
parture. comes in for a share of ad
verse comment. as it is believed he
should have secured a detective to
shadow Sherwood because of his pecu-
liar actions.
Public indignation toward the run-
away daily increases. Even those conr
servative enough before to remain sl-
lent as well as others who expressed
genuine sympathy for the unfortunate
relatives, now emphasize their hope
that he will be caught and have fllll
Justice meted out to him.
The intense excitement over the de-
falcstlon has abated. Those who fllliy
realize that they have been victimized
wait patiently for an authoritative
statement of the true conditions; oth-
ers fearful of losses yet hopeful chafe
under the suspense. The latest rumor
regarding the situation credited to
have come from a director of the bank
places the losses at $300,000. There is
an unfounded report also to the effect
that the Southport National bank has
ceased to exist. and will never be con-
ducted again. it is the opinion of some
that the property will be disposed of
but to par es who will conduct a
banking lness there. This move is
not fully credited.
It is in evidence now that the author-
ities in Washington had taken steps to
apprehend Sherwood, on a warrant al-
leging fraud, based upon a false state-
ment. so alleged. that was sent by him
to the Treasury department. ,
FAIRFIELD. May 27.—There's an
anxiety about the town fathers that
forbodes no good and it is mainly over
the matter of town funds and notes
that have been manipulated by the ab-
sconder. O. T. Sherwood. It was set
forth several days ago that the papers
in question had been figured with the
assets of the Southport National Bank
and the town would be "looked after."
Sherwood was indicted on the charge
of embessloment by the grand jury in
the United States district court at
Hartford yesterday.

success. In Massachusetts a similar
"second hand" organisation had been
discarded. He wanted to know in
whit way the state was $100,000 better
off on account of the Law and Order
League.
Mr. Banks said that because of the
League over 3100.000 in fines and pen-
alties had been paid into the state
treasury. . . , ,
Mr. Donovan, said he didn't know

of the act of 1895 authorising the Law

who may assist grand Jurors who shall
receive fees not exceeding 83 in each
case.
in his closing argument Mr. Banks
described the worktaccompitshed by
the Law and Order League in the sup-
pression of pool selling in Fairileid
county by which 818,000 was paid into
the state treasury. He then said that
while it was not the intent of the bill
to organize the Law and Order League
under a new name, it was the intent of
the bill to continue that work, but it
would accomplish many other things.
now the active hood of the Law and 0r»

about to retire, and Mr. Banks said he

He then said that the ofiice of state are
