terday crowded the quarters OF Father
Giraud, az No. 1921 Wood street. but the
career OF the new divine healer I'm this
city, says the Philadelphia Record, was
suddenly cut short by peremptory order
from Archbishop Ryan 10 leave the city
at once. This was coupled With a warn
ing that I'm case Of his refusal 10 obey
he would be prosecuted as a fraud. and
on the charge Of obtaining money by
false pretenses.
Chancellor Loughlin confirmed the re-
port OF the Archbishop's action. but de-
clined 10 discuss the matter beyond the
general statement that such actions as
those of Father Giraud's would tend TO
cast disrespect on religion. What course
Father Giraud will pursue could not be
learned yesterday as he left his rooms

herself bodily harm Physicians could do
her no good, but finally Father Giraud
was summoned and the young woman
now claims to have been fully cured.
In describing her experiences yester-
day Miss Burns said she had been ner-
vous and weak from childhood, but had
never had any serious illness until eight
weeks ago At that time she fell in the
street and was taken home unconscious
After that she could hardly take enough
food TO sustain life and would have long
spells OF unconsciousness. She--said her
head and heart panied her so that she
had about made up her mind TO end her
life.
When Father Giraud was called in he
first asked the patient II she believed he
could heal her She replied that she did
because he was "a priest. lie then placed
his hands on her and prayed, and she
said that she Immediately began 10 feel
