AN INTERESTING DINNER.
Retiring officers of Republican Com
mittee Entertain the New Ones.

At a beautifully appointed dinner at the
Raleigh Hotel, rendered by the retiring Of
1cers of the republican congressional cam
paign committee to the new committee, the
old officers last night welcomed their sue
cessors. Chairman Babcock presided at
the long table spread In the private dining
hall on the second floor. and charmingly
decorated with roses and spring flowers
AT his right sat Secretary Overstreet and
on his left was Treasurer Thompson. About
forty members OF the committee were
present.
After the well-selected dinner had been
disposed of Chairman Babcock announced
that the time was propitiouS to reorganiZe
the committee and that he and his asso-
ciates were ready to hand over. He en-
couraged the committee to take hold of the
campaign with confidence. The democrats
he said, were without an Issue as well as
lacking In inspiration, and he predicted the
election of a republican House by a safe
majority.
York was nominated for chairman Repre-
mated for vice chairman, Representative
Loudenslager for secretary and Representa-
tive Mckinley of Illinois for treasurer and
all were elected unanimously.
The nominating speeches and the replies
of the candidates were devoted to discus
sion OF the issues of the campaign and the
plan of the coming fight, and no spirit of
pessimism prevailed. a resolution of thanks
to the retiring officers was adopted, and the
chairman was authorized to appoint the
executive committee.

ARMY CHAPLAINS.
Bishop Satterlee Urges One at Wash
ington Barracks.

Secretary of War Taft forwarded to Con-
gress today a letter from Bishop Satter-
less urging the enactment of legislation to
increase the number of army chaplalns by
one so that chaplain may be stationed
at the Washington barracks. Bishop Sat-
terlee says: This subject has been brought
earnestly to my attention by certain of my
clergy who are acquainted with numbers
of soldiers stationed there and who are
familiar with the temptations which beset
these young men in the post which Is sur
rounded by SO many pitfalls. The young
men have been very grateful for the help
which has been afforded them in their ef-
forts to do right, and the clergyman who
is especially interested in presenting this
matter Is distressed that his other duties
made 1t impossible for him to do more in
their behalf"
The bishop urges that the chief OF engi-
neers and the commander at Washington
barracks would undoubtedly find that the
designation OF a chaplain to serve at that
post would greatly aid them in maintaining
discipline and in keeping their men in a
contended frame of mind.

of this year, after attending a meeting of
leaders of all the revolutionary parties in
Helsingfors, Finland. There he escaped to
Stockholm, Sweden, and from there to Ber-
lin. where on February 10 he was received
enthusiastically. The German capital, how
ever his friends did not consider the safest
place for him, and in the beginning of
March he went to Zurich, Switzerland,
where again he met with seevral of the
prominent men IN the Russian revolution
who had found an asylum in that country.
Il was there that he received several ca
bles from his friends who had fled tenn
porarily to the United States and who ad
vised him to come here and recuperate, for
his health was known to be in a very bad
state. This was partly due to the long
the publication of several of his books
and pamphlets and condemned repeatedly
to half a year or eight months imprison-
ment.

Unanimous action taken by the

ers of that influential body, that
organized labor will be represented
in this city during the sessions of
Congress by a powerful legislative
committee composed of representa-

mentary to extensive plans that
have been mapped out by President
Samuel Gompers and Secretary

Federation of Labor, to take the
labor hosts squarely into the polit-
ical field and conduct vigorous
campaign from this time until cleo

the Central Labor Union last night at Ty-
geographical Temple when be arose to pre-
sent resolution which he said would have
q most important bearing on the entry OF
organized labor into the field of politics. He
prefaced the Offering of the resolution by
saying that for a number OF years the man
who dared 10 bring politics into his labor
union was given bad repute. But recent
events have made the matter different. The

said, has taken up the proposition of ac-
complishing more labor legislation. and IL

Statement From VoIiva.

When informed of Dowie's arrival at
Chicago and the latter's plans as outlined
In the Associated Press dispatches, Over
seer Voliva dictated statement. in part
as follows:
Undoubtedly Dowie's reason for not pro-
ceeding to Zion City at once is that he has
read the morning papers giving an account
OF unanimous sentiment against MIN IN
Zion, and he desires to evade the humllia-
ton of arriving here in the day time, when
there would be no one to meet him. Prob
ably he has concluded to come here at
night and then give out to the public that
the reason there were not thousands to
meet him was because he arrived at so
late an hour. l wish to say now that so
far as we, the leaders of the church, are
concerned, Dowie is In no danger of bodily
injury, but there are many people in Zion
City who have been so Shamefully decelV-
ed and have suffered so much through his
mismanagement that 1t is just possible
some one might attempt to do him some
physical injury So far as we, the officers,
are concerned, If Dowie will quietly submit
to the inevitable he will be kindly treated
and tenderly nursed.
Regarding any legal steps he may take,
he will be compelled to meet overwhelming
testimony to the fact. that the transfer OF
Zion from Dowie, through me to Deacon
Granger, was absolutely necessary to pro-
tect Zion City and lions creditors as we'll
This move has been ratified by every Zion
congregation in the country with the ex-
ception of San Antonio and st. Louis.
