DOWIE ELUDED THEM
Sleuths of the Coroner Fail to Get Him
Under Arrest,


Chicago, May 25-John Alexander
DoWie, assisted by his faithful Zion
guards, successfully eluded arrest yes
terday morning and escaped service Of
a cOroner's mittimus. Surrounded by
his guards he walked into the criminal
court building and reached Judge Tu-
ley's court before alert and watchful
cOrOner'S SleuthS were able to secure
service Of the mittimus and place him
formally under arrest, although they
were very much alert in the matter
Judge Tuley fixed the bail in the case
of Dowie and II, Worthington Judd at
$4,000 in each case, and in the cases
of Deaconesses Speicher and Bratsch
at $4,000 each.
Mrs. Judd died a week ago after six
teen hours Of suffering. Her infant
also died. She was a member Of
D0Wle'S congregation and it is
claimed did not ask for medical at
tendance. While DOwie and his ell
ders and the nurses were praying Mrs,
Judd, according to the verdict of ply
sicians who held an autopsy, burst a
blood vessel owing to intense pain.
The doctors said that the ordinary
treatment given by medical practi-
TONERS would have saved her life cas-
lily. After listening to this testimony
the coroners jury brought in a YER
dict holding Judd, the two nurses, and
DoWie to await the action of the

M'KINLEY POLICY SUSTAINED.
Solicitor General Says the Decision Is q
Government Victory,

Solicitor General Says the Decision Is O
Government Victory,
Washington May 2S.-Solicitor Gen
eral Richards, of the department of
justice, who had charge Of the insular
cases before the supreme court, last
night made the following statement
containing his Interpretation of the
decisions Of the court yesterday: "Ihe
important question involved in these
cases was whether the cession Of terri
tory contained in the treaty of Paris
made Porto Rico and the Philippines
al integral part of the United States
within the meaning of that provision
Of the constitution requiring all duties.
1mpOStS and excuses to be uniform
throughout the United States The
court held that the cession simply
made Porto Rico and the Philippines
domestic territory of the United States,
subject to the full control of congress,
which control could be exercised with
out reference to those limitations.
This limitation, the court held. was
intended to apply to the states of the
Union, and does not apply to acquired
territory unless by treaty and by sub
seQuent act of congress it is incorpor-
ated Within and becomes an integral
part Of the United States. The deci-
slOns are substantially a victory for
the government. They sustain to the
fullest extent the so-called insular pol
icy Of the administration. The gov
eminent now has the sanction of the
supreme court for governing these isl
andS as their needs and our interests
require.
THE court holds that the constitu-
ton did not of it's own force at once
apply to these coded territories, placing
their people, their products and their
ports on an immediate equality with
ours, and comforting upon them all the
rights, privileges and immunities en-
Joyed by the people, products and ports
of the several states. While their fun
damental rights are preserved by those
underlying principles of the constitu-
ton which apply everywhere, the
status OF their citizens and the nature
Of the customs and commercial regula-
tons are to be determined by congress
by the exercise of the power vested by
the constitution in congress to make all
needful rules and regulations respect
ing territory belonging to the United
States.
"Obviously what l have said regard
ing Porto Rico applies equally we'll to
the Philippines, so that the president is
perfectly free, under the Spooner act,
to govern the Philippines as their needs
and our interests may require.
"At the same time the court has sus-
tanned to the fullest extent the con-
tention of the government in these
cases, it has decided as a matter of
statutory construction that the Dingley
act could not be held to impose duties
on goods brought from Porto Rico be-
cause by cession Porto Rico became
domestic territory Of the United States
and therefore ceased to be "a foreign
country The decisions of the court
call for no change in the administra-
ton of the law

SENT BACK TO COMMITTEE
Presbyterians So Dispose of the Question
of the Confession of Path,


Philadelphia, May 2S.-By a unani-
nous vote the Presbyterian general
assembly yesterday adopted the report
of the special committee on the revis-
ion of the confession Of faith. DR..
James d. Moffat hit on an amendment
that made the report what everybody
was willing to stand for, and on a
viva vOce vote the whole of the
GAO members Of the assembly voted
aye. Then the commissioners arose
and sang, praise God, from Whom
All Blessings Flow" which was fol-
lowed by a prayer of Thanksgiving by
Moderator Minton. The Moffat
amendment instructs the revision COM
mittee to prepare for submission to the
next general assembly a brief state
ment of the faith, expressed in IN
technical terms as far as possible; but
this statement shall not become "a
substitute for, or an alternative Of, our
confession of faith"

vision having been disposed Of the as
sembly proceeded to the consideration
OF unfinished business and transacted

on Same Track.
Albany, May 2S.-Two electric
street cars Filled with gathering peo-
pie and rushing in opposite directions
upon the same track crashed into each
other and in an instant piled upon the
track a pyramid of mangled dead and
living bodies. The mass. turbulent

runs around a sharp curve. the inner
side of which is shielded by a dense
grove and the side, bending around
the verge of a deep ravine.

ments behind time, was racing for the
switch south of the curve North
bound car No. II, having already
passed the switch without meeting %,
was racing with equal speed for the
next switch north Of the curve The
trains met at top flights in the apex
Of the curve. Neither motorman had
an instants' warning. Both persisted
where they stood, battered and i'm
paled by the mighty impact. Both
cars were shattered to fragments
where they met. One hundred and for
ty persons were in them.

And Where the Government Won.
Makes Distinction to the Status of the
Island at Different Times.


The point of the two opinions, con-
sidered collectively, is that Porto Rico
was never. after the acquisition of that
island, foreign territory; that until con-
GreSS acted upon the question no duty
could be collected, but that as soon as
congress outlined q method of con-
trolling the islands revenues that ac-
ton became binding-in other words,
that congress has power under the con-
StitutiOn to prescribe the manner of
collecting the revenues of the cOuntry's
iEsular possessions, and has the right
to lay a duty on goods imported into
our inSular possessions from the Unit
ed States. 1t holds, in brief, that for
taxation purposes they are not a part
of the United States to the extent that
goods shipped between their ports and
the United States are entitled to the
same treatment as though they were
shipped between New York and New
Orleans.
Justice Brown delivered the court S
opinion in both cases, and there were
vigorous dissenting opinions in both

members of the court united in an

chief justice and Justice Harlan pre-
scented their views in written form.

conclusion announced by Justice
Brown, announced that they had
reached the conclusion by different
lines of argument, and Justices Gray,
White and McKenna announced opin-
ions outlining their respective posi-
lions. Justices Shiras White and Nc
Kenna also dissented in the De Lima
case, uniting in an opinion. Justice
Gray also presented an independent
