Chicago, July 11.-There is a strange
called for trial in Judge Smiths court.
where Samuel q. Priddle a former
member of the Christian Catholic
Church in Zion, is suing John Alex
ander Dowie for $4,000 damages for
libeling him. Priddle at one time
prophesied the death of Dowie. and
the latter afterward paid his respects
to him in his publication, The Leaves
of Healing. DOwie is charged with
referring to Priddle as a vile person."
and also calling him IAN insane fanat-
ic'' and "a prophet of the gutter and
of damnation," it is alleged.
why God Removed Moody"
DOwie asserts that lie was justified
In making the alleged statements
against Priddle, and declares that the
latter was an impious person and
failed TO take care of his family. Ac-
cording to Dowie, Priddle wrote him
March II, 1901, as follows: Il be-
Iieye that God removed Mr. Moody
because his institutions We're run with
gold standard Republican money. equal
to bribery. and l have some very strong
dreams that God is going to remove
you" In another part of plea that
he has filed Dowie sets forth that
Priddle wrote him as follows:
Gives Some Startling News.
Here is Il little startling news to
you, perhaps, since you came back.
Here are some of the gold standard
interested people who have died: Phil
ip ID. Armour, queen of England, Mr..
Lewis, rich money lender; RothSchild,
largest banker in Germany, and all
his oil tanks destroyed by fire. More
congressman and senators died than
ever before, and the last is eX-PreSi-
dent Harrison. This is q little of the
evidence 1 have that Christ has start
ed his reign upon earth"
He Predicts the Second Coming.
On the other hand. Priddle declares
that he is a firm believer in the Bible
as IAN inspired word of God" and
believes that God sometimes speaks
to men in visions" Ee furthermore
asserts that DOwie taught him his be
lief and that the chariot wheels of
the coming Christ are almost within
hearing distance and that soon the
king will come and call from the world
his own. when those that are alive
and remain will be caught up to meet
the Lord in the air."

JUDGE LAssIrER DENIES.
Says the Rock Island Does Not Own
Texas Central.

Houston, Tex, May 6.-Some sur
prise was occasioned here by the posi-
tive denial from Judge Lassiter, of
Fort Worth, that the contract for the
transfer of the Houston and Texas
Central to the Rock Island had not vel
been signed. 1t was generally believed
that the deal had been completed and
it was rumored here that the Rock Is
land would take over the property
within a few days. The local officials
have nothing to say about the matter,
but there is no reason to believe that
the matter has fallen through.
Judge Lassiter's denial was brought
out by a dispatch from Austin, whence
all sorts of announcements of railroad
deals have come within the past few
days, which stated as a positive fact
that the contract would be submitted
to the commission for approval within
few days.

1t is claimed that some OF the men
who We're dismissed are not "boozers, ~
but that they simply happened to be
caught in joints when the company
suotter was there. The conductors ana
engineers who were dismissed say that
no notice has been given that the COM
pany expected TO impose such a penalty
on men caught in joints.

Vengeful Struggle Is on Between

Coloraoo railway Magnates-
Denver, May ga struggle is on be-
tween the Colorado & Southern railroad
sllied with the Hartman interests, and
me Denver & Rio Grande. a part of the
Gould possessions for control of the
Colorado & Midland road The primary
cause of the strife is the new Moffatt
road from Denver to Salt Lake which
is in course Of construction. When the
Moffatt road refused to grant the Rio
Grande an interest in the survey in the
proposed line from Kremmling 10
Dotsere, which viii invade the territory
hitherto held exclusively by the latter
road, the Rio GraRde in retaliation set
about finding a means of shortening its
line to Salt Lake BY building a line
direct from Denver to some point on
the Colorado Midland at least 100 miles
of travel could be saved and the Rio
Grande people began to negotiate for
the Midland. This was the purpose Of
Russell Harding's recent sOjOurn in the
state. The Colorado & Southern discov-
cred what was being done and realizing
that such cutoff as the Denver & RIO
Grande proposed to make would mater
tally benefit them in the run to the
coast they began planning to defeat the
scheme. The Rio Grande now threatens
the Southern by holding off renewals of
old arrangements about to expire, con-
corning joint line deals in the big coal
fields. The trouble has not reached the
eruptive stage as yet however.
