olas Of the Greek church says the announce
ment that he had been instructed by the
holy synod at St. Petersburg to build in Chi
cago great cathedral, costing not less than
$500, 900, Is mistake. Through an interpre-
ter he said: 81 have received no such in
structons. The holy synod of st. Peters
burg has taken no such action as indicated
when l was in Chicago | authorized the
priests there to build a church in the sub
urbs Of Chicago, but instead of costing $780,
000 it will cost $1,000. That sum will in
clude the cost of the lot and the church.
No member OF the royal family will become
the patron OF the church. A great cathe-
dral would be out of proportion to the needs
Of the church in this country"
Bishop Nicholas said that he had not esti-
mated the exact number of believers in the
faith there are in the United States, but
would place it at $4,000. In making this
estimate he did not include Alaska. which
