A VERY UNFORTUNATE AFFAIR.
Lieut.. England Killed At chefooo BY
French Bullet.

Chefoo, China-Lieut. Clarence Eng.
land, navigating officer Of the United
States cruiser Chattanooga, was
wounded by a rife bullet fred by a
member Of the crew Of the French
armored cruiser Dupetit Thouars, and
died in q few hours.
The Chattanooga, with Lieut.. Eng
land on the bridge, was proceeding
from the harbor to a target range,
just outside, and was passing the
French squadron, which was anchored
near the American squadron, and was
engaged in small-arms practice. Teh
Chattanooga, after several bullets had
struck the side of the ship, signaled
to the Frenchmen to cease firing. but
before this was accomplished Lieut..
England was struck in the back, at
the base OF the spine, probably by a
ricochet bullet, which left his body
under the arm.
Lieut.. England was the son OF J.
E. England, of Little Rock, Ark. He
was appointed to Annapolis in 1890.
and became a lieutenant in 1902. He
had been on the Chattanooga since
1904. Capt. Lloyd England. of the ar.
tillery corps, United States army, is
his brother.1

FEDERAL COURT DECLARES IT A
TRUST ESTATE.
OOWIE AND VOL|VA OUS1ED
An Election viii Be Held September
10 For a New Leader-Dow.
les Compensation.

Chicago-Neitner John Alexander
Dowie. founder, nor Wilbur Glen Vo-
liva, present general overseer. is given
the property, estimated to be worth
312,O 600, 900 to $21. 0OO, 900, in the de-
cision handed down by Judge X. NJ.
Lands, OF the United States circuit
court, in the Zion City case. Instead,
Judge Lands declared Zion City a
trust estate, named John G.. Hately,
member OF the Chicago board of trade,
receiver Of the property and ordered
the holding OF an election September
10, wnen the people OF the Christian
Catholic Apostolic church in Zion City
shall choose their Overseer. Judge
Lands will decide later what compen-
sation Dowie will be allowed for his
past services.
The nub of the courts decision Is In
the ruling that contributions OF prop
erty and money given Dowie vas in
trust. Judge Lands declared the con-
veyance of the Zion City property by
Voliva under power OF attorney to
John Alexander Granger to be void.
Judge Lands quoted from writings of
Dowie to show that the latter had al
ways regarded the property Of his
church as a trust.
The adjudication in the bankruptcy
proceedings against Dowie was also
set aside so that pending litigation
against Dowie may automatically be
restrained until the entire litigation
Is ended.
Receiver Hately's bond of $25, 000
was approved by the court, and he
went Immediately TO Zion City and
assumed charge OF the property.
