DOWIF IS THE LEADER
Headquarters Established at Madi-
Immense Crowds of People.-His
Benediction, "Peace be With YOU"
More of Revelation.

New York. Oct. 16.-At six o'clock
this morning special trains began to
arrive over the various roads bear
ing the hundreds of crusaders OF the
Restoration Host" five thousand
strong, which will pour in all day to-
day. Arrangements are complete in
Madison Square Garden for their re-
ception
The Zionists are at once taken
there where each one registers and
is then assigned to one of the great
army of boarding houses which will
shelter them during their campaign
in the city.
Dowie is leading the hosts and
they come to begin a crusade to save
the people of New York from losing
their souls.
DR.. Dowie has just left
his train at the Grand Central station
disappointing an immense crowd that
was awaiting him at the West Shore
railroad ferry. By a feint he had his
private carriage awaiting him at the
ferry, but to avoid the crowd he took
a public hack to the hotel. A num-
Der of his own people recognized him
and greeted him, but there was lit
tie demonstration.
After a rest, Dowie proceeded to
Madison Square Garden, where about
three thousand of his disciples await
ed him. The assemblage arose as
he entered Holding up his hands,
Dowie said. Peace be to thee" The
roll was then called.
After looking things over at the
Madison Square Garden DR.. DoWie
gathered the reporters together and
talked earnestly and seriously to
them for more than an hour He
said that he and his followers came
to New York on mission of peace,
and during the coming three weeks
the members of the Christian Catho-
lie church expect to visit every fam
ily in the city at least twice.
DR.. Dowie said also that he comes
in the capacity of the prophet Eli
sha and in accordance with a revela-
ton he made in the Chicago audito
rum before more than seven thous-
and people, and he promises that la
ter he will more fully explain what
that revelation means. He said that
he and his followers are law abiding
citizens and loyal to the country. He
declared that he fought many bat
ties against the wrong, and that he
had always been victorious. His
coming to New York is not a money
making scheme but one for the sal
vation of souls.
1t is stated that Mrs. Dowie was
robbed of a $1,000 brooch in their
private car which was attached TO
the special train in which the Dowie
party reached the city. The theft
is supposed to have occurred at the
station during the confusion of leav-
ing the cars.

my or the brown army. when an at
tack is made upon the fortified vii
lage. 1t will be their function to de-
termine whether an intrenched posi-
sition has been technically captur-
ed and whether this regiment or that
brigade has been (constructively)
wiped out From their decision
there will be no appeal.
In the course of the operations an
entire division will be marched out
and deployed for battle An attack
in force will be made upon an out
post, after preliminary skirmishing
and reconnaissance, and the blue and
brown armies will finally come into
collision. The forces being pretty
evenly matched. the losses on both
sides may be expected to be large,
though the wounded will not require
hospital treatment. and the dead will
happily come to life again after the
fray.
One of the most important objects
of the maneuvers is to afford to off
GERS Of the several arms an oppor-
fupi+v for obcnrvipo Tho o,yoI,,+i~nc
and capabilities of the other arms
Thus cavalrymen will see what the
infantry and artillery are doing and
the artillery will get a more definite
notion of the sort of cooperation
which may be expected from the in
fantry and cavalry The value of
this is obvious. OF course the engi-
neers will have their own important
part to play in the operations, con-
structing pontoon bridges and throw
ing up earth works, while the signal
corps, with telegraphs, telephones
and a balloon. will attend to the bu-
siness of conveying intelligence.
The regular troops engaged in the
and the most of which
are now on the field. come from the
Forts Leavenworth and Riley. Kan

brara and Robinson, Nebraska; I.o-
gan, Colorado; D. a. Russell. Wyo-
ming; Douglas, Utah; Smelling, Min
nesota; Lincoln, N. Dakota; Myer,
Virginia; Keogh, Montana, and JEFF
ferson Barracks. Missouri
Besides the regular troops there
will be an army of National Guard
present, as follows: Kansas. one bri-
gade, consisting Of two regiments OF
and two batteries OF 1eld ar
Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska
and Arkansas, one regiment of in.
fantry each; Colorado, one naftalion
of infantry; Nebraska, a signal corps
of about sixty men.
The work of establishing the camp
was practically completed today
The camp extends several miles
along the Kansas river. The site is
well drained and there exists a pien-
tiful supply of pure water. The
work or feeding the army during the
days is in charge of Captain
A. NJ Davis, the commissary Of the
department Of the Missouri. A de-
pot commissary has been put up near
the camp, where all articles which
the troops may need may be pur-
chased. Arrangements have been
perfected to supply the troops with
fresh beef. fresh vegetables and
fresh bread every day while they
are encamped on the reservation.
The supply of bread will come from
the army bakery at Fort Riley which
will be operated night and day dur
ing the next two weeks
