PRIEST IS
A BANKRUPT
Father MGMahOn's Liabilities
SI,594,M
HIS ASSETS ARE s75,2O7

Editor Of Catholic Universe signed
Many Notes For the Fidelity Fund.
ing Company, Of New York, Which
10 Now In the Hands Of Receiver.
Church Property Not involved.
Cleveland, o.. April Rev. William
Mcmahon, pastor OF st. Bridget's q
Catholic church. and editor OF the
Catholic Universe, fled q voluntary
petition in bankruptcy In the United
States court. In the petition his total
liabilities are stated to be $1.594.141.64.
with assets aggregating $75. 5.207.0s. Of
which $71.300 is real estate. The Sc
cured claims amount to $946.925.73;
unsecured claims. $371. .207.91. and
commercial paper. $1S5.9ls.
Father Mcmahon was q director Of
the Fidelity Funding company, of New
York. founded by p. J. Kieran, and
which now is in the hands Of receiv.
ers. Thus It came about that his name
was signed to many Of the papers is-
sued by the company. and for which
he now is held liable by the receivers.
The petition enumerates many notes
signed by Father Mcmahon. They are
held mostly in New York. Pittsburg
and Cleveland banks.
Late in 1905 Father Mcmahon bor-
rowed small amount of money from
Kieran. who is said to have offered
him lower rate of interest than that
charged by other companies engaged
In similar line of business.
The friendship between the priest
and the financier grew to such an ex.
tent that the former signed or en-.
dorsed the notes which now are held
against him. and at the time of the
failure Of the Fidelity Funding COM
rany was one of the board of direc-
tors. When the Kieran crash came In
December last Father McMahon's 8
dealings were supposed to extend only
to the reorganization of the Euclid
Avenue Trust company. Of Cleveland.
in which he signed notes for about
$4,000. His assets were then said
not to exceed $4,000.
II was announced authoritatively
from a priest closely identified with
the affairs of the Cleveland diocese
that the liability set forth in the peti.
tion in voluntary bankruptcy made by
Father Mcmahon is personal and that
the Catholic church property 10 moi
involved in way that the church can
lose.
The title to all Catholic church prop
erty. II was explained. in all parts Of
the world, is vested in the archbishop
or bishop OF the diocese in which II is
located. and mortgages must be sane
toned by the prelate in charge.

sell 'em for $25.
THE Sketlioi bunch Clipped in.
Soapy gave a dollar himself. He
sailed the coin and about two days
later turned over the figures.
