went to the divine healing home from
81 Ashland avenue March 10, being Ill
at the time, and got work as a porter.
Neighbors are said to have notified the
health department of the presence OF
smallpox Wednesday, and DIR. Spalding
went to investigate. The patient seemed
to be in the advanced stages OF the dis
ease and he was ordered removed to the
isolation hospital. The ambulance call
ed for him shortly after midnight, but
it was two hours before the man was
finally taken away. The Dowieites pro-
tested against the removal.
I'VE usually extend the quarantine to
twenty days to be on the asfe side, "
said DR.. Spalding. If other cases de-
velop the quarantine will be extended
at the Dowie home and all those in the
place will have to submit to vaccina-
ton"
AT Dowie headquarters none of the
officials would discuss the smallpox
scare at the home.

New Archbishop Of Manila Calls or
Secrefarv Roo%

Secretary Root.
Washington, March 2S.-Mgr. Sbar-
ETH, who has been chosen archbishop
Of Manila to succeed Archbishop Noz-
alagen, who retires voluntarily called
on Secretary Root yesterday. The sec
rotary was about to take train for
New York, so he was obliged merely to
greet his visitor and refer him to Col
Edwards, chief of the insular bureau
until he (Secretary Root) returned to
Washington today.
Mgr. Sbaretti is on his way to Manila
from Rome. 1t Is understood that the
selection of Sbaretti was made by the
pope in recognition of the excellent
services of the prelate in Cuba, where
he succeeded in task which up to that
time others had failed to accomplish,
and arranged a complete divorce of the
state from the church to the entire sat

Philippines government will be among

Mgr. Sbaretti. But there is some indi-
cation that Archbishops Ireland and
O'Gorman already have taken some
part in the negotiations on this subject,
and it is not certain that Mgr. Sbaretti
will relieve them entirely of that task.

STANDS WITH RUSSIA
Germany Will Support the Gar
in Any Move in Far
East.
Inquiry OF United States as to
Kaiser's Attitude Toward
open Door"
Sides With Russian-French and
Against the Anglo.Japan
Alliance.

Berlin, March 2S.-Germany, ac-
cording to high authority, has cast
her lot with the Russian French al
lance, and against the dual union OF
England and Japan. While willing to
take an Identical attitude with the
other powers for the open door" In
China, Germany will not in a finality
oppose anything really desired by
Russia.
This new development in the situa-
ton in the Orient has been brought
TO light thru an inquiry by the United
States as to how far Germany would
go toward maintaining the open door
lin China.
This inquiry, which was initiated
prior to the trip of Admiral Prince
Henry of Prussia to the United States,
was not made with the objectio elicit
ing well phrased writings on the sub
ject, nor general assurances, nor even
so-called guarantees, as the admins
tration at Washington. according to
information here, thinks there has
been quite enough of such diplomatic
interchanges. But the purpose of this
inquiry was to learn, for the. guidance
of Washington, whether Germany, in
any event, would take a resolute stand
for equal trade opportunities.
This inquiry produced no definite
reply, but indirectly the impression
was given from the very head of tho
German empire that Russia would
have at least the tacit support of Ger
many In any move that might be
taken, so far as it related to the far
east. This is the first principle of
Germany's exterior policy. and APP

Reports have been current ever since
the Russian French declaration of eff

Germany to the Cars policy, and Of

rumors an emphatic denial has been
given until today, when Germany's In

Arkansas City, Kas., March 2S.-The
trial of Rev. Granville Lowther, the
Mcpherson minister, on a charge of
heresy was begun here yesterday in
secret session before eleven Kansas di-
vines, appointed by the southwest KAN
sas Methodist conference. G. j. Halves,

sci for the church and Charles G. Wood,
of the Illinois conference, and William
II. Rose, of Winfield, were named as
counsel for the accused. Bishop Mail
aleu-, who presided, said the charges

ferent from those published in the
newspapers. Bishop Mallalieu warned
those concerned that not one word
should be given to the press. Rev.

ginia in 1S49 and moved to Illinois in
1856 with his family, settling on farm.

ference of the M. Il. church until 1888,

came member of the southwestern

tended request that he be returned to
his charge, Notwithstanding the heresy

FOR TRADE RETALIATION
United States will Meet German
Exclusion Law With Sim.
liar Measures.
All Articles Treated With Borax
or Other Preservatives
to Be Listed.
President and Cabinet to Con.
slider Course to Pursue--
Washington News.

Washington, March 2S.-While nc
policv has been formed as to the course
this government will pursue in meeting
the new exclusion law of the German
nroducts. all the measures that appear
to be practicable probably Will be
adopted, The matter so far is only In
the preliminary stage, but today 1T pro-
crossed so far that facts and figures
bearing on the trade and the articles OF
import from Germany which may be
available for imposition of similar re-
striction are now ready for submission
to the president and his advisers. The
department of agriculture has been
gathering these facts and list OF ar
ticles found to be treated with borax
or other preservatives, against which
has been laid the charge that they are
injurious, has been completed and the
question of policy will be given serious
consideration very shortly.
The articles that first will be consid-
cred along this line are sausages. wines,
beers and delicatessen. A large per
cent of these, among other things, have
been found to contain personalities
such as might cause them to be barred
on the same theory as that adopted by
the Germans. The United States has
been excluding for some time articles
salicycic acid and another
acid, clearly proved to be injurious. but
the enforcement of these conclusions
will be made even more
rigorous.
The German view of the deleterious-
ness of borax will be accepted and used
for meeting their exclusions and other
in all probability will be
adopted barring stuffs treated with
other preseryatives.
Whatever restrictions on article are
decided upon, it is likely that Germany
will be not specifically referred to. al
tho the articles selected will be such as
affect mostly the imports from Ger
many.

No one disputes the fact that we are

PATTERSON ATTACKS FUNSTON,
The Colorado Senator Criticized tho
Kansas Eiahter's Statement.

Kansas Fighters. Statement.
Washington, March 2S.-In the sem
ate yesterday, taking advantage of the
latitude of debate afforded by the sem
ate rules, Mr.. Patterson, of Colorado,
sharply criticised the methods by which
Gen. Funston captured Aguinaldo, and
sought to show that Gen. Funston's
statement published that he had not
violated the articles of civilized war;
fare was not accurate. Mr. Patterson
said that he would not notice the stare
ment, but for the fact that Gen. Fun
ston called to his aid the president and
the chairman of the senate committee
on Philippines, representing them as
endorsing his speech. Mr.. Patterson
said it was evident that Gen. Funston's
speech was to be used for campaign
purposes, and he thought, therefore,
that two things ought to be brought
calmly and dispassionately to the at
tention of the country-first, Gen. Fun
ston's own statement of the character
of Aguinaldo, made in a magazine arti-
Gle last October; and, second the rules
of civilized warfare regarding deception
of the enemy. Mr.. Patterson then read
at length the provisions Of warfare re-
lating to spies and the use of deception,
and read extensively from Gen. Fun
lston's Magazine article, his point being
that Gen. Funston had violated the ar
ticles of warfare in deceiving the Fill
pinos at the time he captured Aguinal-
do, despite his statement now that he
had not done so. In conclusion, Mr..
Patterson said that all authorities upon
Il . ~
civilized warfare declared that the use
of the enemy's uniform was not war
ranted, and that a man in an enemy's
uniform who killed another man was
guilty of assassination, and outside the
pale of protection.
The senate adjourned until Monday.

and apparently conflicting orders were
flashed over the wires to the trainmen
employed on the Evansville q Terre
Haute railroad, and some of them were
so manifestly erratic that an immedi-
ate investigation was ordered at the

The trouble was explained when it
was found that Joseph Ehret, one of
the most reliable operators in the en-

denly insane while at his key. He was
taken from his work and became so
violent that he had to be confined. He
