Paroehial Schools Exempt from Taxation.
Cleveland, July II A case that mas
| attracted a great deal of attention, has
been on trial in this city for several
days past, in which Bishop Gilmour,
, Catholic bishop of this diocese, sought
to enjoin the county treasurer from
the collection of $1,000 taxes and as
sessments on lands alleged to be l.eld
by him in trust for the use of the
Catholic %parochial shoots. The bishop
and other clerical witnesses We're cross
examined, and Il large number of papal
documents, DEGREES of the various coun-
ellis, encyclical letter of the Pope, ETC.,
were introduced by the defendant, to
show that parochial schools we've Or
, ganiZed and conducted for purposes
hostile to free institutions and opposed
to the public policy of the state, and
not therefore to be considered as com-
ing within the meaning of the exemp-
ton clauses of the statutes, either as
public schools or institutions of purely
public charity, and to show that the
bishop holds the title to the property
not as trustee, but absolutely account
able only to the Pope of Rome. To-
day Judge Jones in his opinion held
that the establishment of these schools
was not in Il legal sense opposed to the
public policy, unless they were tainted
with illegality, or had an origin, pur-
pose or tendency in c~ontraventlon of
public morality; that the bishop wa
| really the trustee for the property for
school purposes, and that the court of
equity could if necessary enforce the
trust; that the school property was not
exempt as public school property. hut
that being built and carried OF ty vol
untary donations, and no incomes aris-
ing therefrom, they were exempt from
taxation, as Institutions Of public char
ity, and under the same law as otLer
s~ectarian colleges and institutions of
the state, so far as the general tax was
concerned. but not exempt from special
assessments for sewers, paving, etc.

worst. The Orangemen went quietly
to church in the morning. but it was
rumOIed they would bring out tie
harmless Union Jack, and crowds hur-
ried 10 Knox church in anticipation of
trouble. Inside the church regalia and
orange lilies were common. An eye
witness says at about 1:20p p. m. a shout
attracted the crowd TO Craig street,
where Il young man in gray clothes vas
rushing away from "A mob. While the
leaders attempted to pull him off the
steps of Dunn'3 store, another young
man who attempted to aid him was
struck by member of the mob, where
upon he fired several shots and stimuli
taneously received the fire of the crowd.
One shot struck him in the forehead,
when lie fell bleeding on the sidewalk,
hut shots were still fired at him and
nobody went to his assistance, while a
policeman placed him in an express
wagon and took him away. A PrOtes-
'taiIt clergyman who attempted to offer
prayer over the dying man was rudely
pushed back despite the mute appeal of
the upturned eyes of the poor victim.
The mob had complete control of the
streets and evidently desired an out
break. AS the hacked body was driven
OFF some unknown roughs waved their
hats with a turbulent air. Some other
persons were seriously hurt.
A crowd is watching at the railway
depot in expectation of giving a warm
reception to the Orange Young Britons

pected at Point. st. Charles, where

his own authority. 1t is reported that
Boon, wounded in the riot, died to-
night.
