CHURCH COLLECTIONS SHORT
investigating the Finances OF st.
Gabriers at New Rochelle.

NEW ROCHELLE. July 2.-There is
n quiet investigat ton going on in St
Gabriers parish. The books OF the
collector are being generally overhauled,
and, 1t is said. deficiencies found, by
reason OF which the collector has been
obliged to resign. The populations SO
far discovered do not amount to much.
but 1t is feared the amount will reach
greater sum than was at first ex-
pected. 1t Is said that the Easter Of
ferings were considerably short, and
new receipts for the past quarter which
were not credited on the books, are con-
stantly turning up, to Father Kellner's
surprise.
The parish has been in existence
year. Adrian Isenn. jr.. and William
lselin are trustees. Their mother Mrs.
Ardian Iselin. sr.. built the church out
of her own pocket and presented 1t to
the Catholics Of the new parish free
and clear of debt. The Practitioners
responded literally, and it was believed
the church was financially prosperous
until the disclosures referred to came
about three weeks ago.
The ex-collector admits a slight de-
ticiency. but says the church owes him
that for services rendered. Father
kellner was not ut home this morning.
