Answerable to God.

SAN ANTONIO, April 7.-Dowie. af-
ter the train left Laredo, welcomed a
correspondent. He denied entirely the
charges made by his wife, son and the
overseers He said he would drive his
wife and son from the "city of God"
He says he has been true to every trust
and is answerable only to God. He
says:
THE charges are foul mouthings of
ingrates and ours. The receivership
and the curtailing of my commands
are illegal acts In the courts as weD
as with my right hand I will smite
them. Women may have proved the
downfall of the prophets of old. but
they cast no spell or modern prophets.
They say lost millions in Wall street.
It's a lie The lustful letters purport-
ing to have been written by me are
forgeries. The creators shall be put in
prison and the charges will be publicly
refuted Within week Dowie will
again be Zion's leader and accepted as
a holy man of God, not as charlatan."

ARE FIGHTING FOR CONTROL
Mutual Life Mil Holding Annual
Meeting This Afternoon
IT IS ONE OF GREATEST lMP0R lance
QUESTION AS TO WHO WILL CON.
TRoL MANAGEMENT OF
THE COMPANY.
IT IS ONE OF GREATEST IMPORTANCE

NEW YORK, April THE outcome
of the annual meeting of the Mutual
Life Insurance company is awaited
with a great deal of interest by inSur-
ance men and the policy holders of
The company in particular The meet
ing, which will be held this afternoon,
is Of the greatest Importance, as it will
definitely settle the question whether
the present management is to remain
in control of the affairs of the COM
pany or no, The management of the
company has been extremely active
during the last few weeks to secure
proxies for their trusted agents, George
f. Baker, president of the First Ma
tional bank; Eldridge T. Gerry and
John w. Auchincloss.
The form Of proxy which the mutual
management has used on this occas-
ion is so worder as to confer upon the
trustees named rather unusual powers
OF attorney lot tne next ten years.
The proxy is thus wOrded:
Know all men, by these presents:
That I,........, of. f........., county of
| ........., state of. ........, do here
by constitute and appoint George F.
Baker Elbridge T. Gerry and John w.
Auchincloss, any two of them. or the
survivor of them, my attorneys and
agents. for me and in my name, place
and stead. to vote as my proxies as a
policy holder at any election of trus-
tees of the Mutual Life Insurance COM
pany of New York, with full power of
substitution and revocation, hereby
ratifying and confirming all that my
attorneys and agents, or their SubSti-
| tute, shall lawfully do or couse to be
| done by virtue hereof. Unless sooner
revoked, this proxy shall continue in
force ten years from date hereof"
! The opposition, headed by Thomas
w Lawson, has also been very active
and is believed to have accumulated
| a large number of proxies. A battle
royal between the supporters of the
management and the opposition is ex-
pected, and as nobody knows exactly
how the power is distributed, the out
come is extremely doubtful.

to last May, amounting to $4,000 or
$4,000. The Snake River Irrigation

Offer to Buy Warner Out.


Attorney Gose, in behalf of William
H. Parry, made a formal offer to pur-
chase all of Warmers interest in the
Snake River Irrigation company to-
gether with sundry lands and prop
erty in Two Rivers for $20.276 A GER
titled check of $500 earnest money for
an option on the following property
was deposited with Clerk Hill: 14,166
shares of stock in the Two Rivers
tOwnsite company; contract for pur-
chase of $40 acres of land in vicinity
of Two Rivers; contract for five 10
acre tracts of land; house valued at
$50; one block in Two Rivers and all
of Warmers stock in the Snake River
Irrigation company, amounting to 322k
shares. Attorneys for Warner made
no move to consider the compromise.
Fraeme on the Stand.
Following the arguments A. B.
Fraeme, the general manager and
named as one of the defendants, was
placed on the stand. Attorney Graves
conducted the examination and by
hard work and much questioning elic-
tied some interesting history regarding
the operations and financial condition
of the two companies. F'raeme said
that when the Snake River Irrigation
company was orgafized he subscribed
for the whole of the capital stock,
amounting to $2O0,dOO, although at the
time he had only about $4,000 in money
and no property. Since then. he said.
he had put in about $500 into the
two companies, the Continental Con-
struction company, which was organ
lied afterwards, and the Snake River
company. Fraeme could not remem-
Der just how he had paid in the
money, by check or cash, or just where
he had gotten the money, except to
earn it at his profession of civil engi-
neer. When asked who now owned
the stock in the Snake River Irriga-
ton company he said Warner held
some 400 shares and a man named
Lindsay in Portland owned 450 shares.
The Lindsay stock, together with a
block of Continental cOmpanys stock.
was given to Lindsay to negotiate a
loan to carry on construction work.

SURVEYORS TO BEGIN WORK MONDAY
INCORPORATION COMMITTEE RE-
PORTED COMPANY HAD
BEEN ORGANIZED.

At public meeting held at the
courthouse this afternoon John H.
Morrow, chairman of the incorporation
committee of the Columbia & Walla
Walla Traction company, reported that
the company had been organized and
articles of incorporation filed. He stat
ed in a brief speech that the incOrpOr-
ators were determined to construct the
road as soon as possible. He urged
the farmers and business men of Walla
Walla to subscribe for stock if they
desired to control the management of
the company. He said that the build
ing and operation of the road would
be the means of building up the entire
country through which it would pass
and it was to the interest of every
farmer and merchant to get in line and
assist in the project.
John B. Catron made a few remarks
favoring the proposition declaring that
it was up to the people to assist the
company by taking a large portion of
the stock.
Mr.. Morrow announced to the meet
ing that a crew of surveyors would be
put in the field Monday morning and a
second crew was being secured to enter
the field at once
