COURT TO NAME RECEIVER
Voliva, Who i. Now in Charge
of Sacred City, Is Cutting
Down Expenses.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, May 22.-Federal
Judge Lands has ordered the credi-
Wednesday or he will order the estate
adjudcated. The courts experts found
no misappropriation on the books and
expressed the opinion that if proper
Iy managed the estate would pay the
debts and leave a balance. The pres
ent management of Zion industries is
regarded wasteful. Dowie's attorneys
regard their client as bankrupt
W. G. Voliva, the present head of
the Christian Catholic church has
announced to his followers in Zon City
that between January Is and May 19
he had reduced expenses in the f1nan-
cial department of the church from
$9S00 per month to $3,S22 per month.
This saving, he said, had been brought
about by a reduction of the working
force and a cut in the salaries of those
retained. In the same manner, he said,
a saving had been made in the ecclesi-
astical department that would amount
10 $4,000 annually. Overseers, who
had been receiving $500 a month. were
reduced to $50. The pay of others was
cut in proportion. His own compensa-
ton under the new adjustment, Voliva
said, was 500 per month. These facts
he said are some of the details of a
report which he made Saturday to a
committee appointed by Federal Judge
Lands to investigate the condition OF
the industries in Zion City.
Voliva also announced the resigna-
ton of John c. Excel from the office
of general ecclesiastical secretary ow-
ing to lack of sympathy with some of
the doctrines of the church.

NOT AN INTELLIGENCE "BU.
 REAU."

A well-known Indiana man says that some years ago, when the late General Lew Wallace was serving as governor of New Mexico, he shipped home to Indiana a carload of curios for his friends. The collection consisted mainly of boxes of minerals, furs, In- dian blankets, and beadwork, and witr them went a Mexican burro intended for neighbor's child as a pet.
 When the car reached it's destination the freight agent, in checking up the contents of the car. misunderstood the word "burrO,' and thinking that it was the phonetic attempt of some illiterate railrOader to spell bureau" was un- able to find any piece of furniture or hand to fit the bill of lading. So, ac- cOrding to railway custom in the mat ter of irregularities, he promptly tel egraphed back to the shipping point
