The great New York Cathedral moves on apace. The cross of the facade is in place. It is twelve feet high, weighs three and a half tons, and is highly ornate. The crosses on the side peaks are also in place. They are severely plain. A forest of scaffolding is within the building. Within a few weeks the stone masons employed on the cathedral voluntarily suffered a reduction of their wages of one dollar per day per man.
