Delegations frum the St. Vincent de aul society, the Young Catholic’s Friend society, the Carroll Institute aud the Catholic Knights were present and officiated as ushers, ‘THE CEREMONIES, The preliminary services were held in the chureb building, the bare brick walls and gaunt scaffolding forming # strange con- trast to the brilliant vestments of the Cardinal and his acolytes, one of whom bore aloft the arcblepiscopal _ cross, Daring these services the salt and the water for the sprinkling were blessed. The procession then moved to the open air where the corner- stone was laid. Coming to the ‘of the geremony the cardinal recited the antiphon “Place the sign of salvation at this place,” &e., and then the 83d Psalm, “How lovely are Thy tabernacles, 0 Lord.” ‘Then praying the Lo “who, although the heavens and earth cannot contain His Majesty, yet deign to dwell in humble edifices on ‘earth,” that He would Youchsafe to drive all wickedness from His people, ‘The versicies and responses were said, &nd then the biessing of the stone “ior the foundation of church in honor of St. Paul the Apostie,” followed. Then the cardinal sprinkled the stone with holy water, and receivit trowel marked a cross on cack side, und prayed “Bless, O Lord, this creature of stone, and grant by the invocation of ‘Thy holy name that who- soever shail with a pure mind give assistance to the building of this church may experience health of bodyjand soul.” Aster the Iitauies the cardinal placed the box, with parchment, &c., in the cornerstone and sealed it up. Alter Passing around the church with the clergy re- citing the Psalm, “How terrible is this pluce; it ig no other than the House of God, the gate of Heaven,” and other Psalms, and then having completed the eireult prayed, “Oh God grant to this building Thy celestial Jiicrease, that what by Thy ordering is founded may by Thy assist- ance be increased,” and after other prayers and hymns the ceremonies were concluded. THE CARDIAL then ascended the platform, where he was en- throned. The slanting rays of the setting sun fell full upon his tace and figure and were re fected from his hat and vestmentsot gold em- broidery, his golden stat! and the jeweled cross that résied on his bosom. Underneath his mitre could be secu the beretta or skull cap of brilliant red, the insigniaof his rank as a prince of the church. His pule tace gave evidence of fatigue. Rev. Dr. Foley, of Baltimore, ascended the platform, kneeled’ before the cardinal, kissed the archiepiscopal ring, and then rising preached to the multitude. Religious ceremo- Dies were needed, he wuld, that mun may do homage to God, Man being us well 4g spiritual, there Was need of exterior ceremo- nies. ‘The Saviour gave example of ceremonial in the very act of commissioning his apostles, Dr. Foley explained the ceremonial of laying the cornerstone, More august than apy ouher in the world would be the temple that Fises on cornerstone blessed by the church. He de- Picted in beautuiul diction the uses of the church. He congratuluied the new parish on the coming of the new church, When Dr. Foley finished the cardinal spoke @ Jew words congratulating the people upon this new evidence both of the materiat growth nd or the religious prosperity of ‘the city, and Closed by asking blessing upon the new en- terprise and tue people, The cardinul and the | atiending iprieste then returned to the church | bulluing where they removed their vestments And then reappeared in street attire to wake carrlages awaiting them. ‘The crowd wulted ouwide and as the cardinal—now altired as a Plain citizen, though the edge of his beretta showing beneath the rim of bis tall bat indl- cated his rank—made bis way to bis carriage he received many evideuces of the respect uud homuge of the people who formed @ dense jmass on either side of the passageway. nO Or ue nemn THE W.

General W. T. Sherman, with bis family, is stopping at the Fitth Avenue Sotel. asked last night ifhe would make any reply to THE KNIGHT CONVENTION. Important Questions to Come Before the Assembly in Richmond. GROWTH OF THE ORDER—FULL REPORTS OF THE CONVENTION TO BE GIVEN TO THE PRESS— SECRETARY TURNER SAYS POWDERLY WILL BE UNANIMOUSLY RE-ELECTED. ‘The tenth annual conventi@n of the Knights of Labor, which opened at the armory in Ricb- mond this morning, is really the ninth, as two conventions were held in 1879, one in January and the other in September. At the former it Was decided to hold tuture annual conventions toward the close rather than at the beginning ofthe year. The convention will be one of the ‘most important ever associated with the order, andemphaticalty the most representative of organized labor that has ever assembled in the United States. From Canada to the Rio Grande and from New York to San Francisco delegates of the order will assemble, and at least 1,000 duly accredited representatives will voice the sentiments and direct the aspirations of close a million of men. The inaugural business of the convention will be the election ofa general master workman for the ensuing year. This will probably provoke a lengthened and ani- mated discussion, but is likely to eventuate in the reelection ot tga If elecved,a mo- ton will be made jater on ft the proceedings that his salary be increased from $1,500 to $5,000 per annum. A MILLION MEN IN THE ORDER, The order has grown to very large proportions since last year’s convention, The number of ‘assemblies organized this year 1s equal to that in existence when the last annual convention adjourned, A Richmond special to the N. Y. Times says: Secretary Turner puts the member- Ship in the United States and Canada at 1,000,000. It was discovered prior to the special assembly held at Cleveland that the order bad outgrown its constitution, The spe- cial assembly was in reality able to make no change in It, though: it was called for that pur- ose, but it paved the way fora by ap. inting a revision cominittee, consisting of Messrs. ‘Lichman, Banes, and’ Zimmerman. This committee will report at this week's con- Fention. ‘The report is ready, but the nature of It, according to. retary Turner, has been re- vealed to ni y within or without the order, The plan of allowing each state to manage its own affairs, with a national board asa sort of court of last resort, was discussed at the Cleve- land assembly, and it is not unlikely that the Committee's report will advocate such a meas- ure. It will require a two-thirds vote to mage @ change in the constitution, but this vote will be forthcoming if Mr. Powderly stamps the report with his approval. This he will proba- do, as Lichman is one of his right-hand men aud wouid hardly present @ measure unless be felt certain it would suit his chief, Except the revision of the constitution and the election of Officers, there will be comparatively littie for the conyention to do. These wwo tasks, how- ever, and the interminable discussions to which the former, if not the latter, too, will give rise, are expected to occupy the attention of thé convention for at least two weeks. It is beld in the armory, and the building could only be Tented fora fortnight, The armory wiil accom- modate 1,000 persons, and between 800 and 900 delegates expect to occupy seats in It to- day, A very large mujority of these will come from the eastern and middiv states. New York and Massachusetts will be by far the strongest states in the convention. POWDERLY WILL BE RE-RLECTED BUT SECRE- TARY TURNER HAS STRONG OPPOSITION. The complexion of the general executive board for the coming year will depend upon the committee which bas in band the revision of the constitution. If the bord be enlarged some of the present members will have a more favorable chance of retaining tueir positions than if its size remains uncnanged. Mr. Pow- derly will probably be re-elected by acclamu- tion. The opposition to him has been unable to select a candidate who would stand a ghost of achance. The other members of the board will fiud the path to office more thorny. Con- siderabie dissatisfaction exists with the man- ner in which Frederigk Tarner has performed the combined duties o} secretary treasurer, Complaint is made on all sides that he Is inat- tentive. In many instances the complainants are themselves to blame. Mr. Turner thinks he will be re-clected, He may and probabl does expect some determined opposition. [t will be led by his predecessor, Robert Layton, of Pittsburg. Not many months ago the gen- eral opinion of prominent Knights was that Bailey and Hayes, of the general executiv board, would be shelved, that Barry would be reelecied. The urrivals are too few to de- termine bow the tide sets so far as they are concerned. Littie business will be done by the convention on Monday, as its time wiil be occt pied by the open session of the aorning and the usual unimportant but still mepeanery sroek of the first day. Messrs. Powderly, ley, Barry aud Hayes have arrived. Mr. Powderly thinks the convention will occupy ai least two weeks. In the Massuchusetts teu there are about forty women. Frank K. Foster, democratic nominee for the lieutenant gov- ernorship of Massachusetts, is a delegate, ABLEST MEN IN THE ORDER, A Richmond special to the New York Sun says: The session wil be elght hours a day— from 8 to 12 in the morning and 2 to 6 in the afternoon. As to the important issues relative tosirikes, boycotts and Kuixbts of Labor run ping for political offices, which Mr. Turner con- cedes wili be the leading topics, he says be is BOL prepared to venture predictions, but he intimated that the action of the committee on the revision of the coustithtion wiil be adopted, and that the fight would be In that committee. Mr. furner said tue men that be considered the lest members of the body to be here would be V. Powderly, of Scranton; Richard Gritith, Of Chicago; W.'H, Bailey,@t ‘Ohio; T. B. Barry, of Michigan; Chas. H. Litchm: of Massachu- setts; Richard ‘Trevelick, of Michigan, and Ralph Beaumont, ot New York. FULLER PRESS REPORTS, ‘He said the commitiee who at formersessions furnished the press with matter did not do the work satisfactorily, and this time Mr. Powderly and the executive board would atiend to that business and the reports would be much fuller, He considered that much barm bad been done the order through the meageroess of the reports given to membors of the preas here- tvolore. ‘With respect to the refusal of @ hotel here to give accommodations to a New York deiega- tion which had @ colored man in the party, he said people ‘at the north ure surprised to'see such friction between the two races down south, At the last repubiican presidential convention in Chicago eid) Bee sachices yet dele- ates, all of whom s e Palmer house, Shien ts considered to be one of the fret bowels in the country.

The fourth day of the trial of Janitor Titus for the murder of Tillie Smith at Belvidere, N. J., attracted a large attendance, the court room being crowded. Young girls were excluded. Charles Munnicb, the young drummer, testi- fied that after he and Tillie Smith lett the other girlson the night of the murder, they walked straight to the institute gate, passed through ita distance of about thirty eet, and stood talking while the lights were beim ex- Unguished in the institute. He heard some ‘one lock the front door of the institute. Tillie then said that she must go, und that she would enter the Institute by the laundry door. "Wit- ness looked at his watch, and found that it was just ten minutes after 10 o'clock, Tillie started ‘Towards the institute and witness went back to the American house. In the reading room of the hotel he told his friend Haring ina Joking manner that be bad been intimate with Tillie iu the institute ground. This boast, however, was talse. Ax(ero Vivera,s Cuban student ai the institute at the time Of the murder, testi- fied that he swod at the window of bis room, in the trout part of the building, a few minutes 10 o'clock. He noticed that a man and woman had entered the grounds by the front gate. They conversed ‘uiew minutes and Separated. Hurry Smith, Vivera's roommate, corroboraied Vivera’s testimony. Wm. Van Syckle testified that six weeks before the murder Titus had made lascivious remarks about the new servant girl at the instiuute. Rev. Dr. Whitney, president of the inatitute, testified regarding ihe duties of Titus. As jan- itor and watchman, Titus, after ringing the bell at ten o'clock, should lock all the doors and close Ube windows, and during the night attend to the furnaces In the basement. The regula- Hons of the institute compelied the servants out Jute at night to enter by the laundry door at the rear of the bullding, through which the state ciaims Tillle did enter, and was assaulted and jed to death by fitus. Dr. Whitney 1ur- Ler testified that Titas had told bim that be- tore he the last bell on the nightot the murder he repaired a bedstead in a student's room. This detained him, and it was twenty minutes after len before tie locked the closed the windows and reached the furnace: Toom in the basement. Alter attending to the fires he went out doors and waiked around the institute butiding, Dut suw no one. Titus had also told bim that he did not go to see Tillie’s body ulter it was discovered, but that he did go 10 the place wuere the body’ was found. Titus claimed that he first beard of the murder on the day the body was found. He heard some one in his yard telling of it as be lay in bed. Sen- ator Suipman asked for an adjournment until Monday mo.ning, because of the poor state of ‘Titus’ bealth, “Senator Shipman said that Titus had been unable to consull with bis counsel on accountof his extremely nervous condition, and he wus airaia he would break down. ‘The chief Justice granted the request of the defense. ‘The suerit? permitted Titus to exercise in the Jail corridor on Suuday,the brisk walk bringin, '& faint color wo his cheeks, Titus will be wel enough to have Lhe trial proceed to-day. TITUS HAD A ROPE IN HIS POCKET. A special trom Belvidere to the New York Tribune says itis @ tact, despite the denials of the officials having him in charge, that Titus had a rope concealed on his person on Wednes- day. Sherif Van Campen, who is res;onsible for the safe custody of the prisoner, acknowl- edges thut he had searches Tituson Wed: ivernoon after the adjournment of court. 1 the Lip pocket of bis trousers the sheriff found 4 sunall piece of rope which looked as if It had been used as usush rope in a window.
