NEW YORK, April 30.-It is esti-
mater that the Peters pence collec-
ton of the Catholic diocese of New
York this year will amount to at least
$3.50, 900 and nay reach the grand total
of 5000, 900, when the returns from all
the churches have been learned. This
amount exceeds that of previous years
by many thousands, and is probably
the largest amount contributed by any
diocese, not only in the United States,
but throughout the world.
This sun IA given by the 200 par
ishes OF the diocese, which embraces
the various boroughs of the city and
Yonkers, the average for each church
being more than 1850.
OF this sum of more thar a quarter
of million of dollars, the 120 churches
In Manhattan contributed by far the
greater part, especially those parishes
controlled by the religious orders,
whose congregations number many

ly large amount of the collection this
year is ascribed to the fact of the CEN
tenary celebration.
