WILL GO TO COURT
DoWIE WILL NOW WAGE LEGAL
 WARFARE.
Claim Made That He Revoked vollva's Power of Attorney Two Days Before Transfer of Property
 Was Made.

Chicago. April 12.-John Alexander Dowie will not retreat to Mexico. He will wage a vigorous legal warfare to regain control of Zion City and as soon as he considers that he has taken the proper preliminary steps. he will de- scend upon that place and proclaim himself the only first apostle" This and his lawyers. Attorney P. c. Haley made the following statement:
 We have advanced and will advance only one condition-complete re- storation of power. temporal as we'll as ecclesiastical. and demand for an ab- solute retraction of the slanderous statements made by General Overseer voliva and Deacon Alexander Granger. Dowie revoked Voliva's power of attor- ney two days before this transfer was made"
 Attorneys for both factions were in numerous conferences today. Judge Barnes. head of the legal department of the City of Zion, came to Chicago and was closeted with attorney Emil c. Wetten, representing Dowie, for con siderable time. What transpired was not made public. MT. Wetten was as emphatic as his associate in denying that any compromise measures were under way. but he qualified his state ment by saying that both sides are de" sirous of preventing the issue from coming Into court as such proceeding might be ruinous to the resources of Zion City.
 The attorneys of Dowie have secured an order from the postal department directing that all mail addressed to pr. Dowie be delivered to him. This they consider an important move as these letters contain tlthes from members of the church This they claim will check mate the order sent out by Voliva that no moneys be remtted to Dowie.

CLAYTON PROTESTS
STRONG OPPOSITION TO THE UN-
 DERwOOD BILL.
Bars of Anniston, Troy and Talladega Have Sent in Their Objections to the Measure Passed
 by Congress.
By Alfred J. stofer.

Washington. April 12.-(SpeciaI. J. Representative Clayton, the Alabama member of the House Judiciary Com mittee, has sent a strong protest by wire against the Underwood Federal Court bill, which is now in the hands of the Attorney General for an opinion, requested by President Roosevelt.
 MT. Clayton states that had he been here he would have opposed the meas ure in committee and on the floor: that it is against the wishes of the lawyers and the people of his district and that he earnestly hopes that it will fail to receive the approval of the President.
 Protests have also been received in addition to those previously mentioned in The Advertiser. from the bars of Anniston, Talladega and Troy. Repre- sentative Wiley is doing all he can to convince the President and the Attor- ney General that the oill should not be approved, as he contends that it will work a great injustice to his district. He has no information as yet as to what action the President will take, for the reason that the latter has not examined the measure and will not do so until 1t is passed upon by MT. Moody. The President has until Monday next to make up his mind.
 Mir. Underwood and others SO strong ly in favor of the bill are by no means letting the grass grow under their feet. They are endeavoring to fortify their position, in view of the opposition aroused, and appear also to rely much cn the fact that the committees of Con gress could see no objection to the proposition to arrange the term of the court at Birmingham. They are said t' feel that the President cannot very well go back on the action of the committee, the members of which are reported to have examined the whole question car ,fully.
 Representative Bowie has recovered from his attack of grip sufficiently to again attend the sessions of the House

 In conclusion he said that the Jews are In every city a community of them selves," and he asked what was to be done to bring about their conver- sion.
 A committee was appointed to report on the naturalization of the Jews in America and to ascertain how many of them are Christians.

Two Persons Reported Killed and
 Thirty Injured.
 Austin, Texas, April 12.--A special to The Statesman from Bertram, Texas, says:
 The town of Briggs, about eighteen miles north of this place In this county was swept by tornado about o'clock this afternoon and almost completely destroyed. Two persons are reported killed and thirty injured. The fatally injured are: Hickman and daughter; Arnett Tabor and wife: R. A. Paterson and wife.
 Seriously injured: J. T. Hall, post master; Prof. l.. B. Pierce; Young De Wolf

 ''Mr. Wetten and I agreed before the conference was over that nothing should be given the press" said Mr. Voliva, "and although he seems to have talked, 1t does not relieve ms Of my pledges"
 The impression prevails that if Dow ie listens to advice being given him by his own friends at the Auditorium Annex. he will give up the fight.

Four towns were destroyed in different ways. namely. by rain. cinders and ashes, which could not be skirted. for they lay everywhere in mass which had broken nearly every roof within the area or thirty miles by ten.

 Calamity Not Realised.
 Like that of Calabria. 1t enlists the sympathy of the civilized world. It takes time for such a calamity to be realized.
 Our wagon driver begged off from completing his contract to take us to San Giuseppe. We had not the heart to insist, so the rest of the journey to the railway at Palma, eight miles, was made laboriously on foot, for three hours, through sliding cinders. In many places temporary shelters had been built by the roadside. like chill dren's play houses. Here women wore huddled with their bedding awaiting the coming of supplies which the army had begun to distribute The men were largely occupied with shoveling cinders from the stronger roofs and floors into heaps three to six feet deep along the roadside.
 Many two- wheeled carts loaded with salvage. drawn by donkeys. were mak- ing their way along. Near destroyed church at San Giuseppe in coarse yell low linen shrouds were the bodies of thirty-three of the 105 persons who lost their lives.

DRAINAGE CANAL PROJECT. Wishes to Reverse Natural Flow of the
 Calumet River.

Washington, April 12.-Representa- . tives of the Chicago Drainage Canal Commission were heard today by the House committee on riverss and har- bors. The Burton bill for the preser- vation of Niagara Falls prohibits the taking of waters which would result in the depletion of the flow of Niagara river and indirectly it is held affects the plans of the drainage canal board. There is now taken from Lake Michi- gan for this canal 4,200 feet of water per second and 500 feet of water for the Chicago water supply.
 The canal board wishes to extend the operation of the canal to the Calumet river, turning the water of the Calu- met river in the opposite direction from it's natural flow. This is now done with the Chicago river.
 President Mccormick of the canal board and Chief Engineer Isham Ran doIph also of the canal board were heard in behalf of the drainage canal project.
