he failed to suppress disorderly houses,
that police official was ordered placed
on trial before Judge Ten Eyck and
struck jury in the Court of Quarter
Sessions today. Although there are
charges OF bribery against CORDIALLY. the
nonfeasance charge alone occupied the
attention of the court today.
Mr., Kalisch sprang a stunning sur
prise when the case was about to be
begun, by challenging the panel of
struck jurors, alleging that six on the
list lived outside the State. The objec-
ton, however. was overruled.
CORDIALLY appeared early and took his
seat between Mr.. Kalisch and Assistant
Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott, who is in
the case, together with Mr.. Young, for
the State.
A large crowd pressed around the
doors of the courtroom, but as orders
had been given to allow only those inter-
ested to enter, the crowd soon melted
away.
There are so many papers to be used
in connection with the case on the part
of the State that court constables
brought them to the table in front OF
the bench In clothes basket.
| In the audience were several Of the
men and women who are interested In
the case because they are supposed to
know something Of the alleged bribery
charges and a sprinkling of former
police officials, themselves under in
dictment.
1t is understood that the secret con-
ference covered certain propositions
looking toward a change in the plea,
but they amounted to nothing, as Cor

His Illness Brief.

PARIS, Jan. 5s.-Francois Marie Ben
jamin Richard; Cardinal and Arch
bishop Of Paris, died here today OF corr
gestion OF the lungs after a short ILL
ness.
Cardinal Richard was born at Nantes
March /, 1919, and was made a cardinal
in 1889. He was head of the church in
France.
A message of coincidence from Presi-
dent Fallieres has been received at the
archbishopric.
The cardinal entered a seminary
while youth to prepare for the priest
hood. His promotion was rapid, and
throughout his life he remained the
thorough churchman and the strong
ally of conservative Rome. He was just
the man to fill the chair, a former oc-
cupant of which had been murdered
by the Commune, and when trouble
came between the French government
and his church he remained the ultra
montaine of ultramontaines.
He bitterly opposed the separation of
church and state, and insisted on re-
naming in his archepiscopal palace, 30
that the government might be com
PEELED to expel him from 1t. When this
was done thousands of mon, women
and children dragged the aged prelate's S
carriage to a friendly residence.
The cardinal was greatly interested
in America. and was deeply touched at
the sympathy shown him by this coun-
try in his hour of distress.
Mgr. Annette, coadjutor archbishop
of Paris, will succeed the late cardinal
as archbishop of Paris.

ing. the news of the death in Paris oil
Cardinal Richard deeply affected Pope
Plus. He knelt In prayer for q few
moments, and when he arose he ex-
claimed:
HE was not even allowed to close
his eyes in his own house" This was
an allusion to the fact that in 1906, at
the height of the church separation
troubles in France. Cardinal Richard
was ordered by the French authorities
to vacate the Archepiscopal Palace in
Paris.

of the death of Cardinal Richard at
Paris through the Associated Press

nal Gibbons said:
Cardinal Richard was the Oldest OF
the College of Cardinals. He was a
very strong man. and his death means
a distinct loss to the church"
Cardinal Gibbons said that his meet
Ing with Cardinal Richard was at the
election of Pope Plus X, in Rome.
Cardinal Richard for a long time was a
student in Paris with the late Arch
bishop Williams, of Boston. The death
of the aged prelate was not unex-
pected, Cardinal Gibbons said on ac-
count OF advanced age.
