 ELECTION EVE
Preparation for the Vote
 Today
The Campaign was ExCitiDs but Tame in Comparison With Ameri. can Political Contests.

St. Petersburg. April 1.-Tomorrov the city of St. Petersburg will choose electors to the municipal congress Which in turn will elect six members 10 the national parliament The banks; will be closed and business suspended Tn order to give voters and opportuni- ty to cast their ballots.
 Many rumors are afloat to the .sf- feet that the revolutionists intend 10 create disorders and throw bombs in the polling places with the purpose. of discrediting the elections; but the au- thorities declare that nothing of the sort will take place
 The close of the campaign yva- marked by great activity and consid- erable excitement, but those did not compare with the scenes at American political meetings. Speeches were pro- h.olted, but hundreds of thousands of circulars were mailed to voters and the constitutional democrats employed the expedient of dispatching their reading matter by messenger in order that it would be sure to reach the per sons to whom it was sent
 The newspapers are filled with ap- peals to the voters that the suength of the constitutional democrats has. compelled the moderates and liberals to pool their issues. and the law and order and trade industries parties have put in the field block ticket Nevertheless. the constitutional dc.e- gates claim a certain and sweeping victory and the indications are that they will carry the day.

D0WIf DETHRONED
 WIFE AGAINST HIM
All Zion Repudiates Its Founder and
 First Apostle.

chicago, April 1.-At meeting to- uay or 5000 adherents of the Christian catholic Church at Zion City, of which John Alexander Dowie is the founder and first apostle, Dowie's authority was repudiated and wilburg Glenn NoIlNa, who for some time has been conducting the affairs of the church was elected in his stead. Mrs. DoUie also repudiated her husband. and their son, Gladstone Dowie. cast his lot with his mother and the new leader.
 Most of the officials of the churoo were present at the meeting and Dow 1e was denounced by many of these having wasted their money in extra y- .agances. The meeting. however. refus- ed to hold that he had knowingly erred. and John G. Speicner. the for mer overseer and once second in com mand to Dowie, who was recently de- posed peremptorily. declared Dowie to De insane. Mrs. Dowie in her address also upheld that declaration.
 The casting off of the authority of John Alexander Dowie followed the receipt today of an 500 word telegram from DOwie, who is in Mexico. in which he peremptorily ordered the Immediate discharge of Deacon Alex ander Grainger, financial manager of Zion, who has been one of the most aggressive leaders in the effort to place the affairs of the church on q secure foundation. Dowie also an- nounced in the telegram that letter would follow in which other officials were named for deposition. The meet ing of the Zion council of twelve fol- lowed immediately and it was decided to place the affairs of the church be- fore the members and settle the quos- tion of leadership.
 The meeting was held this afternoon and Overseer Voliva read the long telegram from Dowie. A few faint ef- forts at applause greeted the reading. wnich was followed by a storm of cheers for the new leader of Zion as he rose from his chair and advanced to the front of the platform. He in vited Dr. Speicher, the former over seer, to come to the platform and take a seat. Voliva then, amid dead silence announced that he refused to remove was the first publicly announced de- fiance by Voliva of the authority of Dowie. The completion of Dowie-a overthrow as a leader followed imme- diately. One after another, Mrs. Jane Dowie, wife of the first apostle; Dea- con Yerger, of Cincinnati; Overseer P. E. Cantel. and others denounced and repudiated the authority and leader ship of Dowie.

AN EARLY DESTRUCTION.
Democrats Dissatisfied With the Peace
 Making Amendment.

Washington, April 1-Senator Till man, who has charge of the railroad rate bill in the senate, said today that he was not satisfied with the court review amendment to. the measure which was agreed on yesterday between President Roosevelt, several senators and several members of the interstate commission. The senator said he would oppose it on the floor and ex- pressed the opinion that not half d dozen of his democratic colleagues would support the amendment.
 Senator Tillman declares that the amendment does not meet the Situa- ton fully inasmuch as it makes no provision setting forth specifically that there shall be no suspension Of the railway rate fixed by the interstate commerce commission pending the ju- dicial determination of any case which may be appealed from the rate as established This is a contention which Senator Tillman and q number Of the democratic senators have urged, as they argue that failure to provide absolutely against d suspension of the rate operates to nullify the objects for which the legislation is desired. The senator added that he would prefer tV vote for the house bill as it stood than to accept the amendment, for the pend Ing measure gives the right of review where constitutional questions are in voIved.
 The proposed amendment was dis cussed generally today among groups Of democrats but there was no confer cnce among them.

Peter Potter took the card with a
curious strengthening out OF his neck
and a projecting forward Of his beak-
like profile.
1.-TWO o'clock tomorrow afternoon,
he said, shortly. Then he laid the card
on his desk, thrust his hands back into
his pockets and went on rocking end
lessly back and forth.
'Mistuh Pottah'll see yUh ar O'Clock

told the little fat man who was wait
ing III the outer office.
That wasn't treatment Tomlinson
was used to and he didn't like it. Aft
er travelling up from Metropolis to Chi
cago to see Peter Potter he didn't en-
joy being put off in this way. Little
purple blOtches came against the deep
red OF his face. He started to growl
an angry objection, then thought better
of it and stopped. Since the present
fight began he had run up against a
good many unusual things. And he
knew his present situation was des-
perate. If he couldn't enlist Peter Pot
ter on his side of the battle 1t was al
most hopeless. The stakes were too
big to allow him to give much weight
TO personal pique and chagrin. And
Tomlinson was, first of all, a shrewd
business man,
All right" he said and went out.
