John Alexander DOwie, tcstilying in
the hearing of the Zion City controversy
bv Judge lands Court in Chicago yes
terday afternoon, tod of an instance
when his body aud soul became separated
and in his spiritual being he distinctly
saw his own dead body lying beneath

At another time, the witness asserted,
his spirit left his body and the Angel
Gabriel aud the Virgin Mary were pres

Following the vision, the witness
continued, two acquaintances came
TO him and told him they had
dreamed that he was to be asssssinat-
ed. Then, while alone in the taber-
nacle, came voice warning him TO
"arise and GO 81 wenl," said Dowie.
"and while on my way home ! heard an
explosion. The next day found that
nv enemies bad tried to kill me with
dynamite. The back Of the Tabernacle
had been wrecked. "
Dowie denied in the course OF the ex-
animation that he had ever represented
himself as Elijah the TestorPr, subse-
! quently qualifying the statement by say
ing that he told his people that be "came
in the spirit and power of Eiilh." On

FIGHTING IN RUSSIA.


Bomb throwing and fighting between
the troops and the mobs in Bialystok,
Russia. continue. The Jews are terror
stricken.
Members of the Douma hold the gov
ernment responsible ior the outrage ut
Bialystock.
An Interpolation was accepted by the
Douma ye1lerday demanding to know
who was responsible Tor the stirring up
of religious strife and what measures had
been taken to protect the lives aud prop
erly of Jews.
A parliamentary commission has been
sent to Bialystok to investigate the
causes OF the riot.
The revolt of soldiers continues. The
steamer Korea, from Vladivostok, with
troops for Odessa, arrived at Port sald III
tow of British steamer with the soldiers
on the point of mutiny.
Strikes are spreading in Moscow, aud
elsewhere. Bakers in St. Petersburg
propose to strike 10 lew days.
The peasants in several provinces are
seizing lands and the agTarian agitation is
daily tecoming more serious.
There was more TiOting at Bialyslok
Yesterday afternoon. The Jews are ter
rOr-slriCken.
Semi.ofhcial messages from Grodno
and Minsk report thsI,the excesses were
started again yesterday by The throwing
of several bombs. The cIoWds, accord
lug to these dispslches, then opened
fire on The police station, TO which the
troops replied, and there was constant
interchange of shots between Jews in
their houses and soldiers in the streets.
1t is likely that the slaughter of the Jews
vas continued.
A mob of peasants, armed with clubs,
scythes, ETC., who had found their way
into the city Thursday was participating
in the riOling.
A dispatch from Minsk states that the
authorities had been fully torewarned
OF the possibility OF trouble Thursday
aud had recalled a.baltalion Of iatanlry
and several squadrons OF cavalry from
their summer camp TO strengthen the gar
risou, but without overawing the To-
menters Of trouble,
The mob last night was plunderingIanC
burning the deserted dwellings of Jews.
Almost all the Jewish shops are ruined
The Jews who have not fled are being
mercilessly harried.
The women are spared, but the men
are bludgeOned, stabbed and shot. Fir
ing is heard in many directions. Six
thousand Jews are camped in the forests,
surrounded by soldiers.

Asouith Assailed by Women.

The women suffrage agitatOrs yesler-
day carried out their threat to ''rOast"
their ministerial beie nOir, Herbert As
quiih, chancellor of the exchtqner, on
the occasion OF his delivering political
speech at Northampton.
The demonstration, however end
ed ia the discontinue of the agilaiols
alter a furious lussle, but the police had
eventually to protect Mr.. AsquiIh from
the violence of street mob.
The chancellor had hardly begun his
speech when three" sufirseetles, Misses
Kenny aud Ellington, aud Mrs. Ra-
wood, rose among the crowded seals
allotted to women, screaming dennnci-
ations at the minister as the chief min
islerial opponent of their claims, and
making the usual demand for votes.
The audience was instantly in IN up
roar. The bulk of the audience shouted
"Turn them out
Stewards rushed to remove the women,
but the "sutlrsgetteS" shrieked above
the din and waved flags inscribed "Votes
for Women" These were snalched by
women around the demon slraIOrs and
after desperate struggle were torn to
pieces.
Meanwhile, the stewards reached the
disturters, but they no sooner laid hands
on Miss Ellington than she drew q
short Whip from beneath her cloak and
lsshed wildly at the mems heads and
shoulders. Three OF them, however,
seized her, and, fighting like a tigress,
she was bundled down the steps scream =
ing. Her companions remained, shont-
| ing.
More men hsstened to GUST them, and
with the help Of other women who are
not "sufiragettes," they were hOisted
upon the shoulders of the men and
bundled out, struggling and shrieking.
As soon as they we're gone, a party oil
socialists in the body of the hall started
AN uprosr on behalf of the elected wo'
men. 1t took longer to deal with these,
and the uproar aud struggle lasted ioT
half an hour.
Mr.. Asquith then began TO speak
again. but be had hardly started when
/ Mrs. Pankhursi, another "sniifagette,
came to the front of the woman's gal
lery and started making demands. The
audience was less tolerant OF her than O
her predecessors, and her ntterance'
we're drowned in shouts OF Throw hel
out" The stewards ulti mstely carried
her out like the others.

CLOSE OF THE FISCAL YEAR.

AS Il result of the phenomenal show
ing made by the customs receipts dur
ing the fiscal year which closed with
June 80. the federal treasury has
comfortable surplus for the first time
in many months. After paying all en-
penses for running the government the
past twelve months, there is still on
hand in the treasury s15,o75,OO0. One
year ago there was deficit of $780,
600. as result of which Secretary
Shaw was passing many sleepless
nights.
There has been falling off in the
internal revenue receipts during the
past year OF more than $4,000 900. The
miscellaneous receipts have dropped
on to the same amount. so it will be
seen that but for the surprising squirt
made in the customs collections,
Secretary Shaw would again be face
to face with a shortage in the trea-
sury. BY the exercise of rigid economy
during the past year, moreover. the
expenses of the government have been
kept down to a reasonable point.
1t has cost to keep the wheels NOV
ing during this period the sum of
S55S.S95, 255, which is gain of only
little more than 100000 over the
expenses of the government for the
preceding year. A material saving has
been made in the bills Of the army and
navy, but the expenditures on account
Of public work have gone up some
s22,OOO,OOO.
AS already suggested the item main
ly responsible for this favorable show
ing on the part of the treasury depart
ment is the heavy receipts of customs
during the year just closed, which in
round numbers ammounted to $780,
100000, thereby setting a new record
in this respect. Prior to 1906 the
banner year in the matter of large
customs was 1903.
The era of remarkable prosperity
which the country has enjoyed for a
number of years was then at its
height. The looms were humming
day and night, labor was employed
at high wages, and business was BOOM
ing in every direction. The result of
the times was reflected in the Gus
toms receipts, which ran up to a point
never before attained in the history
OF the country. aggregating 1884,
479,5S1. The next best year was in
1905, when the receipts were $751;
1885,

THE TOTAL LOSS POLICY.

The Evening Times has called at
tention to the need of certain changes
in the insurance laws of this as we'll
as many other states where the rates
OF insurance are higher than they
should be if based upon sound business
principles. 1t is evident that in some
communities the rates for fire insur-
ance should be more than in others.
But it does not follow that as a COM
munity increases it's means of fight
Ing conflagrations that the rates of in
surance should be advanced. Yet in
some instances this policy is pursued
by the insurance companies. They
do not give the people who are al
most compelled to purchase insurance
any reason for this course, and It
would seem to be without reason.
1t has been suggested by men who
are interested in the insurance bust
ness that the best policy to meet this
condition Is to enact law requiring
insurance companies to pay the actual
value of property in case Of total loss
