After reviewing the testimony, bs concludes by declaring that under tho laws ot California the plaintiff la the legal wife of Snaron, and. as such, on the ground of wilful desertion, is eDtill.ll to divorce and a division of the common property. Tho letter is estimated to be worth 110.000.000. Tho verdict is a great surprise to the pnblio.

The first portion ot Ihe temple to burn In cluded much valuable scenery, an organ, and olher property belonging to the Scot tish Rite fraternity, and known to be the most complete in tbe West. It was large ly the result of the lifelong labors of Knocli f. Carson, who has devoted much time and study, as well as money, to making this cathedral the most complete of its kind. The loss of the Masonic fraternity will be heavy. Mills & Co.'s establishment is necessarily a total loss, as water de stroyed what was left by the tire. The to tal loss will reach above $100,010. Two firemen were sererely Injured by falling walls. By 11 o'clock tbe fire was fully nnder control and was confined to the Masonic Temple and mainly to its northern half, Ihe building being divided by a wide hall running east to west. It was built at a cost of about 1201.000. It waa insured for $125,000, much more than enough to cover the loss on Hie building. The principal item of loss is thst ot tbe Scottish Kite. whose property was on third and four tit fionrs. In tbe por tion of tbe building damaged by tho tire was Enoch T. Carson’s Masonic library, worth $10,000, and containing many works Impossible to replace. The library was totally destroyed, and waa un insured. It will be regretted by Carson, as well as by alt Masons who knew its character and value. The lossea to other lodges were not so heavy, at much prop erty was carried out J. K. Mills it Co., in whose establish ment tbe lire started,'-aunot estimate their loss,but as their printing house, which was separate from their other premises, it not burned, It is thought that $30,000 will cov er their Ion*. The total lots on the struct ure D estimated at $00,000: insurance $10,- 0 0 The loss to the Scottish Rite it $75,000, to J. R. Mills A Co.' *30.000 and to obers smarm.
