HIS MIND A BLANK
Engineer Hart is Not Able to Tell How How He Received
 His Injuries.

Guilford, Conn.,, Feb. 5-Engineer Fred Hart of the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford railroad who recelv- ed mysterious injuries sometime Sat uruay, was resting comfortably at his home here to-day, and it is probable that ne will be able to attend to his duties in few days. Hart staggered into the switch tower at Saybrook, his face and head being badly cut and bruised. He was unable to tell how he was injured and it was presumed that he fell from q train.
 To-day his mind was more clear and he said that he had not boarded q train but aside from making that statement he fails to throw light on the manner in which he received the cuts and bruises. Hart runs the mid night passenger train from New Ha- ven to Saybrook Saturday and then he boards freight train which carries him to Guilford. He Is q man of eX- ceptionaIly good habits, it is said, and his friends are at loss to account for his being rendered nearly unconscious.

THE WORK OF DOWIE
Elder of the Chicago Shiloh Taber. nacle Says It Has Been
 a Failure.

Chicago, Feb. 5-Followers of John Alexander Dowie were amazed yes terday to hear from the platform of Shiloh tabernacle in Zion. City, the frank admission that the work of their leader had failed.
 The statement came from Elder w. H. COssum in sermon. The elder said that his conception of Dr Dowie was that of man who had been per mitted to look forward into the future and grasp the great principles which will govern the millennium and had attempted to- apply them to present conditions.
 "He has not succeeded said the el- der. T hesitate to say it, yet will say it with love, realizing something of what the fullness of my statement means. He may not have measured up to the great vision which forced him to seek to establish some of the great idealistic principles of the king dom in Zion City in this church and in the ideals which he thrust into bust- ness life but he has not succeeded.
 'Why, is not for me to say; but I know one reason why he has failed. It is because the men and women whom he has had in the church did not acknowledge the vision with him. Instead of giving him their money they put it into their pockets. Instead of fulfilling promises which they gave to him in black and white, they lied to him, turned away from him and left him with only few millions, whereas they promised him many.
 We may be able to discover per sonal reasons, for he is man of like passions with us. If he has failed, 1t is because he stepped out into environ ments so strange and the whole ex- perience was so new that he did not know how to carry it out fully"

Germany is anxious to avoid tariff war and would go to great lengths ill making concessions which would ren- der temporary arrangement possible till treaty could be negotiated, but it is evident that the foreign office re- gards the suggestions hitherto made by the United States as unsastisfac- tory. It was learned at the foreign office that the bundesrath has not yet considered Germany's course after March 1 (when the new Germany tar if goes into effect in the event of no arrangement having been made be- tween the two countries.
