London. Dee. so.--Thc Most Rev Fran
CTS Bourne, Roman Catholic archbishop of
Westminster. was enthroncd in the new
cathedral OF cstminstcr today with the
Impressive ceremony incidental TO such
occasions. The vast building was filled to
its capacity by ceelesiasiics and laymen OF
the Roman Catholic church. the robes OF
the oiicia,ing clergy and the varied garbs
of the numerous religious orders forming
conspicuous contrast with the brick walls
and bare looking unfinished edticc.
The cathedral Of Westminster consc-
Grated today is the FIRST Roman Catholic
cathedral that has stood in the mctropoli-
tan section OF England since the rcforma-
ton. The building was begun eight years
ago. though II was projected by Cardinal
Niseman twho died III 1900 and was
planned hy Cardinal Manning in 1905
il is situated hall mile west OF West
Minister abbey and is a magnificent struc-
ture OF byzantine style with great cam
plnillc OF red brick banded with Portland
stone, standing 800 feet high and crowned
with metal covered dome. surmouned
10y double cross of bronze.
The extreme length OF the new cathedral
outside is 600 feet, width $50 feet, height
oi nave ~ feet and covers an area Of
about $4,000 square feet
The general view of the inner walls is
still one of bare, rough brick.
The scheme is TO cover the whole Of
the lower walls aud the piers TO the height
ot about 10 feet with marble. All the
upper part and the vaults and concrete
demes will be decorated with mosaic work,
illustrating the history of the church.
The total subscription before the laying
of the foundation stone was over $a5o,ooo.

individual bcnefactions, and the total eN-
pendture on the entire edfee up TO the
end OF October was over $1,000 900. The

sAikty.

eral surveyor is unfortunate for the claim
ant, yet the government is in now1se re-
sponsible therefor but adds, that the
government will render any assistance pos
siblc to correct the same, without preJu-

The homestead claimant, at the hearing,
put upon the stand several witnesses TO
disprovc the mineral character of the land
embraced in Lots l and =. one OF them
being a practical miner 1t was shown
that they stink four holes on the lots to
a depth of five feet, but did not so down
to bedrock; that they panned the dirt
taken oirf. but failed 10 find any color
that they did not 20 down deeper from
the fact that the holes filed with water.
One OF the homesteaders swears that an
acre OF the land in dispute will yield 500
bushels OF potatoes, or two tons OF hay.
The mineral claimants testified that. iii
their opirion, the lots were more valuable
for mineral than for agricultural purposes (;
that gold is found thereon close TO bed
rock, and that it is from 20 to 80 feet
down, or deeper than the excavations.
{. {. Thompson testified that prior to
the issue OF patent to the Big Day claim
he panned rs pans of dirt, from which h
obtainede about one cent. i'll gold from
each pan.
Johnson testified that he dug a ditch
nearly mile long, cxtending along the
claim that he drg ground sluice from
"a 10 80 feet deep by 80 feet wide from
the surface OF the gravel deposit to the
water level of the river that he made a
similar open crt at the far end OF the
claim TO level with the water OF Flat
creek. and that he erected mining cabins
thereon.
In summing up the evidence the general
commissioner, in a letter just received
at the Missoula Office. says that he is OF
the opinion that the homestead claimants
have failed to successfully carry the bur-
den OF proof and have not shown by n
prtpunderance of their testimony that the
land is more valuable for agricultural than
for mineral purposes: that at the date Of
the hearing Lot was properly classified
as mineral that Lots and = are not
within the limits of an incorporated town,
and therefore do not come within the
reservation from homestead entry. as con-
strue1 by the act OF 1877 and the prior
ruling in tie case OF Barber VS.. Wilson.
In view of the FORGING. the commits
sioner holds the mineral classification OF
Lots and will not De disturbed. and
the homestead entry made by James l..
HartIan for Lot , is held for cancellation.
and the rejection Of the preferred home
stead application by Riley for Lot / is
affirmed.
Should this opinion become final de-
cision tie amended mineral application
by Johnston for the Big Day placer claim,
and the application by Thomas NJ Burke
to amend forest lieu selection he made
will be taken up and considered.

"Fair Trial" Law.

Missoula. Dec. so.--Under the new Fair
Trial law. Judge Webster Of the local dis
trict court has granted a change OF venue
to the defendant in the condemnation pro-
ceedngs to about az lots in South Mis-
soula of Michael Flynn and {. c. Lowney
vs. Mrs. Alice b. Sanders. all OF this city
The cause has been transferred from Mis-
soula to Deer Lodge, in the Third judicial
district
When the motion for the change OF
venue was argued before the local court
yesterday Woody & Woody, counsel for
the plaintiffs, objected on the following
grounds The law authorizing the change
is unconstitutional in that it violates sec
ton 6, article 3, of the constitution Of
Montana; it denies the right OF the parties
to a speedy trial, it is against public
policy; it is merely an arbitrary order
made on affidavit; il states no facts sub
stantiatng reason for change, whatever,
and it is a non-appealabe order.
Judge Webster, however, overruled the
objections, to which the plaintiffs excepted,
the court allowing them IS days in which
to draw up bill Of exceptions.

Deer Lodge, Dec. ao.--It is likely that
the Nevada authorities will be asked to
further investigate the killing of A. B..
Richards, former resident of this COM
murity, who was buried yesterday. He
was killed, presumably, by Southern Pa
cfc train somewhere in Nevada recently.
His body was found beside the track
with both legs cut off. L. A. Lewis, who
had worked with Richards, claimed that
the two started on freight for California.
According to Lewis, Richards held him
up at the point OF six-shooter as they
were beating their way on the train and a
negro who was concealed in the car as
sisted in the robbery. Lewis jumped from
the train and soon afterwards Richards
body was found. The negro may have
pushed him from the train and killed him.
