Bluficd by the Apostle.

Chicago. April 5.--It has been de-
cided by Overseer Vohva, of Ziou
CITY,. that. in view of the announced
return of John Alexander Dowie from
Mexico and his declared intention Of
a fight against the action
suspending him from office, that the
present overseer shall be appointed
receiver of the church of Zion and
of all the public properties standing
in the name of the church. The
courts will probably be asked to ap-
point Voliva as receiver within the
next few days. 1t was also asserted
by the officers OF Zion City, that If
Dowie returns and commences legal
action against the present officers
of the church, or attempts TO oust
them, they will cause his arrest and
prosecution on the charge of misuse
of funds.
Voliva, acting under the power of
attorney he holds from Dowie. filed
in the Office of the county recorder
of Lake county an assignment to
Deacon Alexander Granger Of all the
annuities and bequests that have
been made to Dowie and are still un-
paid.

TIE FRENCH PROGRAMME

The French Ministry has the courage of its
convictions happily reinforced by an over
whelming popular victory at the polls and such
a parliamentary majority as has not been
known before in the history of the Third Re
public Despite fiscal stringency which might
have driven less courageous ministers to tenn
poriZing policy, it is going right ON with an
! ambitious and costly scheme of constructive leg
islauon, and, despite the apparently growing
power OF socialism and the Increasing preya-
lence OF strikes 1t sets its face firmly against
| what it regards an abuse of the right TO
strike.
The Finance Minister has to bear the crux of
| the present situation. He is confronted with n
| burget deficit of S4GOO0OOO To meet that
| additional taxation will have to be imposed
| which will largely be levied on incomes An
income tax is a familiar device in some conn.
| tries, but the French seem likely to nresent n
IN novel guise, making the tax n dscrimi.
| haung one both as TO the size and the source
| or incomes. Thus large incomes will be toyad
at higher rate than small ones and incomes
| from Industry will be taxed much less than
| those from invested capital. There are predic
| uohs ulat this form of taxation will be much
| less productive than it's advocates exnect and

SHALL THOSE THIRD TRACKS cor

| Largely no doubt as the result of the City
| Clubs vigorous campaign against the INTERIOR
ough company the Mayor felt obliged few
days ago to ask the Corporation Counsel for an
opinion about the extra track in operation on
the Third avenue elevated road. Mr.. Delany
now replies that he can find no legal warrant
for its existence or use. The Interborough COM
pany's counsel AYERS that the privilege of laying
and operating an express track was conceded by
or implied in a resolution adopted by the rapid
transit commissioners in September, 1875; but,
Il the company deems ii essential to ask for
formal permission now, it cannot cherish much
confidence in its actual possession of the right in
question.
The proper proceeding in the existing situa-
ton, Mr.. Delany remarks, is for the Rapid
Transit Commission TO apply to the courts for
an injunction forbidding the running Of trains
on the extra track. The board can, and perhaps
will, deny the company's request but refusal
might not discourage the company much as a
judicial mandate would. 1t is TO be hoped, there
fore, that the commission will see its way clear
without much further delay to define its own
policy, and also TO take energetic action to have
its wishes respected. If the Interborough COM
pany has the slightest intention OF making a
fight in the courts, the the contest is be-
gun the sooner it should be ended. Public in
terest demands prompt settlement of the whole
matter.
The only excuse for an extra track on either
the Third avenue or Second avenue elevated
road is that residents In the Borough of The
Bronx need better facilities for getting down
town than they enjoy at present. Nobody will
deny the statement. More than one way to af-
ford relief can be found, however, and, if there
be a great disparity between different projects
having that object in view, it would be the
height of folly TO choose the worst instead Of
the best. One four-track subway, or two or
three subways, would unquestionably give more
ample service than an extra track on the ele-
waited roads.
Mr.. Belmont is naturally reluctant to parallel
his own overhead lines, but, rather than let a
rival control the new ones which it is proposed
to provide underground on the East Side be may
decide TO bid on them himself. Inasmuch as the
Mayor has shown that the city has the money
requisite TO build subways on its own account,
if no one else wants 10 build them, 1t is appar-
emily in a fairly Independent position.

CHANGES IN THE SENATE.

Recent elections and appointments have
brought the membership OF the Senate up 10
the legal limit for the first time since March
4, 1905. The State Of Delaware had failed
until Tuesday last to ill the seat made vacant
by the retirement Of L. Heisler Ball Kansas
was nOminally represented by two Senator'S but
one Of them. Joseph r. Burton, was on trial in
the courts and was debarred by an unwritten
law from appearing in the Senate chamber or
participating in the work Of the body Mr. Bur-
ton has at last resigned under pressure, and his
place has been filled 10y the appointment Of n
W. Benson, Republican. The Delaware Legis-
lature has elected Henry A. Du Pont, Repub-
Acan, 10 serve out the remainder of the six
year term ending March g. 1911 The Senate's
roster as completed contains the names of
nfty-seyen Republicans and thirty-three Demo-
Gratis.
The elections of 1906 do not promise 10 alter
greatly the present relative strength Of the two
parties. The Democratic forces are, in fact, at
a disadvantage in the approaching campaign
for Of the thirty seats to become vacant next
March fifteen are now held by Republicans and
fifteen 10y Democrats. Some of these seats have
already been filed Murphy J. Foster, Demo

There is little doubt that William p. Frye in

Iowa, New Jersey, West Virginia, Rhode ISL

tests, but Republican control in none OF the
fifteen commonwealth is seriously imperilled.
There may be another deadlock in Delaware.
But, with one gain assured in Oregon and three
more seats within easy grasp In Idaho Colo
RADIO and Montana, the Republican strength in
the Senate will be augmented rather than di-
minished after March A. 1907. 1t Is about an
even chance that there will be at least sixty
Republicans in the upper house during the HE
Of the next Congress.

THE HUDsoY-FULToN CELEBRATION.

The report of the coIEmittee on the plan and
scope of the Hudson-Fulton celebration, which
was unanimously adopted yesterday by the ex-
ecutiye committee of the board of trustees and
which we print elsewhere in today's Tribune,
will doubtless commend itself 10 "the common
sense Of most" There is in it, indeed. no item
TO which exception can reasonably be taken. and,
If it does not provide for every special feature
which individuals may have desired, it must be
remembered that the plan and scope of even so
elaborate a celebration must have limits, and
limits imply that some things must be excluded.
The naval parade, with Dutch and British
participation and reproductions of the Half
Moon and ClermOnt; the land parade military,
civic and industrial, and the speechmaking and
music are conventional features but they lack
no element of dignity and propriety. The great
material memorials-to w.t. the Henry Hudson
Bridge, the Fulton Memorial Viaduct and the
fine extension Of the Palisades Park (this last
made possible by the happy enactment of the
Hook Mountain bill)-we have hitherto spoken
Of with commentator. To these may be added,
with equally earnest approval, the proposed
park at Inwood and the proposed state park at
Verplanck's Point. Mr. Frederick w. Seward
has recently set forth in our columns in con-
vincing manner the claims of Verplancks Point
TO memorial attention as commensurate with
those of the opposite Stony Point, and it is ear
nestly 10 be hoped that this particular recon-
mendatiOn Of the committee will meet with
favor at Albany.
The date of the celebration, late in September
1903. seems to be both appropriately and con
veniently chosen, and it is sufficiently far in the
future to permit the making of adequate prep
arations for q commemoration which will be OF
international interest, and which should be SC
manageh-and we believe will he under the
direction of the competent board in charge OF
it-as to confer permanent benefits and to reflect
enduring credit upon the City and State of New
York
