Due to Growth of Protestantism. Br the Associated Press. PARIS, December 25.—The elevation of Holy Trinity, the Amer; Prot- estant Episco Church in Paris, into a pro-cathe is explained by the rector, Rev. Frederick W. Beekman, as due to the multiplication of Amer- ican Episcopal churches in IEurope and to the fact that Paris has the largest American community abroad. Bishop G. Mott Williams, assigned by the authorities of the church in the United States to direct its Eu- ropean interests, will hercafter make | Paris his headquarters. Holy Trinity, which is regarded as the finest American church in Europe, | was established in 1884 by Dr. John | Morgan. It may in time attain the full status of a cathedral, according to the rector, who was formerly at Bethlehem. Pa. He came to Europe as a chaplain in the American expe- ditionary forces and remained as rec- tor of the church. He says he is working to make Trinity more pop- ular and to create there a war me- morial. NEW JUSTICE FETED. ST. PAUL. Minn..
