DRAFT BY DOWIE REFUSED BY
ZION CITY BANK.
Prophet Has Been Ordered to Cut
Down His Expenses, the Same as
Every One in Zion City Has Been
Doing for Some Time.

Chicago If anything further was
needed to indicate how completely the
yoke of DR.. Dowie has been thrown
off Zion City it came yesterday when
the fact became known that a draft
sent by the apostle from jamaica had
been refused payment at the Zion
bank
The draft was returned to DIR. Dowie
by Deacon Alexander Granger, finan-
cial manager of Zion, with polite
note suggesting that he curtail his
expenses, as every one in Zion City
was doing. This action was taken
after conference with Acting Gen
eral Overseer Voliva and others of
the new financial cabinet. The amount
of the draft was not stated, but Deacon
Granger admitted that it had been re-
fused, and explained by saying that
DR.. Dowie's personal account in the
bank was exhausted.
This is an unheard thing, however,
to dishonOr a draft from Dowie, and
it is expected that warm cablegram
concerning it will be received from
Jamaica as soon as the news is broken
to the ecclesiastical head, who has
been relieved from the financial man
agement of Zion City.

Faces a United Europe

Emperor William found himself sud
denly confronted by united Europe
Joined in combination more power
full than. any ever arrayed against Ma
poleon. 1t is but justice to him to re-
peat what was stated in these dis
patches week ago, that his schemes
never contemplated war, at least not
of his making. Some of his plans
for taking advantage of the destruction
of the balance of power in Europe
command unstinted admiration for
their subtelty, ingenuity, and boldness.
Their execution thus far, however,
has been anything but skillful. 1t was
not necessary that they should antag-
onize and alarm all Europe at this
early stage. This has been done, how
ever, most effectively, and the situa-
ton thus created leaves him no alter
native but to abandon for the time
being all ideas Of aggrandizement.
This will now be done. The policy OF
Germany at Algeciras and elsewhere
for the present will be one OF the most
benevolent Cancellation. It will be
Germany's role for some time to come
to allay in every possible way the
worlds apprehensions and suspicious.
All Europe for Peace
Meantime, the temporary league OF
peace which this emergency brought
into being may be consolidated into
something more permanent. The de-
sire for peace among all European peo-
pies, except certain few whose pro-
fession is war, never was more IN
tense than now 1t seems assured to-
day for the first time in many months
that all belligerent spirits must bow
submissively to this popular will.
