WASHINGTON. April s.-A suit was filed
in the district court to-day involving the
property which Gen. William Malone has
been trying TO sell the government for a
printing Office site. 1t is brought by Rich
ard Windsor, executor of David A. Wind
sor, and sets forth that the latter was a
partner of Malone and that Malone be-
came indebted to him for $l3, 500 for which
amount judgment has been obtained.
The papers filed also assert that upon the
Malone property Jacob Tome has lien
OF $4,000, and that on Dec. 1, 1892, several
months after the Judgment against Ma
hone was obtained by Windsor, a trust
deed was executed upon the same prop
erty in the sum of $4,000 to Myron NJ.
Parker, John G. Heaid and Edgar Allen.
Windsor asks that this trust be set aside
and his judgment be allowed as an at
tachment upon the property.

CALIFORNIA EPISCOPAL DIOCESE
Division Makes 1t Necessary to Elect a

Division Makes 1t Necessary to Elect a
New Bishop.
Los Angeles, CAL. Dec. Sat the re-
cent triennial convention of the Prot
estant Episcopal church in Minneapolis
one Of the first matters to receive the
sanction Of both houses was PROPOSE
ton to divide the diocese of California,
and to erect a new see in the southern
section Of that state, and today the
first diocesan convention. called for the
purpose of putting this action into legal
effect, opened in this city. Clerical
and lay delegates were present from the
counties Of Santa Barbara, Ventura,
Los Angeles. San Bernardino, River
side, Orange and San Diego, all Of
which are within the new diocese.
Bishop Nichols, who has heretofore
ruled over the affairs Of the church in
the entire state, has chosen the north
ern diocese, having San Francisco for
it's see city; and it therefore becomes
incumbent on the convention to select
the first bishop of the new diocese. A
large number of representative divines
have been spoken of in connection with
the elevation. First and foremost is
DR.. Spalding of st. Johns church, San
Francisco, who took a prominent part
in the convention al Minneapolis, and
lowered like giant among the cele-
brated orators and debaters in that
gathering. Then there is DR.. Daniel
H. Greer of st. Bartholomew church,
New York City, who refused call to
become the successor of the late Phillips
Brooks in Boston, and would doubtless
have been a bishop ere this had he ac-
cepted. DR.. J. H. Johnson of Christ
church, Detroit, Mich, has many
friends, but it is doubtful whether he
would accept an election, in view of
the fact that last year he declined the
bishopric Of Indiana.
Others favorably mentioned are Rev.
DR.. George w. Douglass, formerly of
Washington, D. c., and who, is now
travelling in Europe owing to the i'll
health Of his wife, and Rev. H. B.
Restarick of San Diego, who was also
a delegate to the recent convention.
The convention will doubtless decide
to designate the see as the diocese Of
Los Angeles"
