The most unsatisfactory feature of all is, that outside the city, newsboys as well as dealers insist on selling all papers at about the same price as before, and that neither the newspaper proprietors nor their patrons get the slightest advantage on account of the drop in prices.

The opinion was delivered by Judge Smith. Beginning at 2 o'clock, it occupied nearly three hours. Out of nearly 200 pieces of property held by the archbishop fourteen were selected for this trial as being representatives of all.

Nine of these were churches the others were the cathedral, including the archepis-copal residence and school, seminary, Cum-minsville orphan asylum, and St. Joseph cemetery, old and new. The Court found in tbe case of the churches, though the title was in fee simple in Archbishop Purcell, yet they were built from money contributed by members of the different congregations, and that the title was in the archbishop by reason rules of the church, which in such caes as this the Court was bound to regard that the archbishop held the title only as trustee for uses of the congregation, and that property so held could not be subjected to payment of debts of the archbishop. In the case one church the majority of the Court found that the evidence showed that the archbiscop had advanced some money, and the church was liable for that amount to the assignee. As to the cathedral and cathedral school, built by the archbishop directly from funds placed in his hands, except about raised by subscription, the Court held that though the archbishop held the property in trust, as he did other churches, yet to the extent of the amount advanced the assignee was entitled to recover interest for the benefit of creditors.

The orphau asylum at Cumniiusville is also declared a trust not subject to sale, and the mortgage given by Archbishop Purcell on it to secure a creditor was declared of no binding force. The same view is taken as to St. Joseph's cemetery," with an order for reference to the master to ascertain if the archbishop made advances to this property. As to the cemetery, a majority of the Court held that it was not dedicated to the public; tb at the consecration did not amount to dedication, and that such portion as was not sold for burial lots could be sold for creditors. Judge Johnston dissented as to referring pieces of property to the master for an account, and dissented wholly from the view that cemeteries are not dedicated to the public, and as sucti held in trust by the archbishop.

When it became known that itwas the Exposition, although it was so late, immense crowds were soon on the way to the scene of the conflagration.
