ian government Of his death, and does
notify the other governments, Italy will
not offlcially participate in any mani

self to maintaining public order and in
surfing full liberty for the conclave, as
prescribed by law. InarSiving at such
a decision the ministers declared that
they had been guided by the wish to pro-
tect the dignity Of the state, and by no
lack Of respect for the aged pontiff, to-
wards whom there have been most chiv-

Chicago Dec. 3.-John Alexander Dowie will be put on the witness stand before Bankruptcy Referee Sidney C.

 Receivers BIount and Currie<. spent most of the day at Zion CitS Booking into all accounts which they could find so that they might prepare the report which Judge KohIsaat has asked for. concerning the adyisability of continu- ing the operation of all the industries. belonging to DOwie.
 The receivers, it was said tonight. have found only about S12,0OO in both of Dowie's banks. Judge Kohlsaat has told the receivers that he wants to know as soon as possible whether the interests of all the creditors can he protected best by carrying on the vari ons enterprises in Zion City. It is not likely that any of the industries will be closed, as in such an event thous- ands of persons in Zion City would thus be deprived of a means of liveli hood. This is said to be one of the main reasons why. Dowie will be re- tained as manager of the business un- der the direction of the receivers. The receivers realize Dowie's strong hOid on his followers and wish to prevent any turn in events which might turn Zion City into d deserted village.
 That Zion City's two chief indus tries-the lace works and candy fac tory-are not paying expenses was of ficially disclosed today in an examina = tion of the plants by Chief Custodian Redieske. After questioning closely. the managers of both concerns. MT. Redieske said:
 If Dowie relies on the industries nf Zion City to pay his indebtedness the town will still be in the hands of re- ceivers a year from now. Neither the lace works. nor the candy factory is on paying basis. In the case of the lace works I understand that lack of raw material is to blame. No one seems tO know what is the matter with the candy factory"
 MT. Rediesle is now skeptical con corning Dowie's ability to vacate the receivership. s"Dowie may have a mil lion or two up his sleeve for all know" he said, but I have been un- able to sec any evidence of financial strength in Zion City

Expected to Arrive in Washinston
 About Dec. Is.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Secrctary Hay had talk with the president today about the developments on the isthmus of Panama. Secretary Moody dropped in while the subject was under consid- eration. As result of the conference it is possible that one of the United States warships now at Colon will be used to bring the Panama canal treaty, ratified yesterday at Panama. to the United States. The authorities here have decided that it was proper to facilitate in every way the conclusion of the treaty, and influenced in some measure by the urgings of the Panama representatives here, cabled instruc- tiOns to United States Consul General Gudger to assist in all proper ways in the dispatch of the treaty on it's re- turn to Washington.
 This is the explanation of the consul generals conduct in confiding the treaty to Rear Admiral Walker for conveyance across the isthmus from Panama to Colon. The treaty should reach Washington in the ordinary course about December 15.
