D0WIE DETERMINED TO
 ENTER CITY HE FOUNDED
WILL GO TO ZION AND PRO- CLAIM HIMSELF THE ONLY
 FIRST APOSTLE.

Peace Only on One Condition and That
 Complete Restitution of Power, Tenn
 pOraI and EccIesIastic, and an Abso-
 lute Retraction of the SIanderOus
 Statements of VOIiva and His Fol-
 lOwers-Bill in Chancery Still Being
 Prepared-DOwie Gets Order for His
 Mail From Postal Authorities.
 Chicago, April 12.-John Alexander Dowie will not give up his leadership of the Christian Catholic church and return to Mexico. He will wage viz orous legal warfare to regain control of Zion City and later will go to Zion City and proclaim himself the only First Apostle" This statement was author ized tonight by Dowie himself and by the lawyers who represent him.
 Attorney P. c. Haley, for Dowle, to- night said; We have advanced, and will advance, only one condition-com- plete restoration of power, temporal as well as ecclesiastic, and a demand for an absolute retraction of the slanderous statements made by General Overseer W. G. Voliva and his followers against the moral character of Dowie.
 We are preparing a bill in chancery petitioning the courts to set aside the transfer of the property at Zion City made between General Overseer Voliva and Deacon Alexander Granger, be- cause the instrument was absolutely void. Dowie revoked Voliva's power of attorney two days before the illegal transfer was made.
 'Dowie will not immediately proceed to Zion City, but will remain in his apartments at the Auditorium Annex until every preliminary legal step has been taken, He will then proceed to Zion City and enter it with all of the power and authority which he possessed when he last left the place."
 Dowie has secured an order from the postal department directing that all mail addressed to Dowie be delivered to him in Chicago. This, it is said, will checkmate the general order sent out by Voliva ordering that no moneys be remitted to Dowie hereafter.

R1DICULES SENATORS.
Cochran Defends Hepburn Rate Bill
 Letter Carriers Pay.

Washington, April 12-The feature of to-day's proceedings in the house or representatives was the speech made by MT. Cochran (N. Y), who was given an hour to elucidate the subject of "gen- era1 debate" on appropriation bills. The galleries were crowded.
 MT. Cochran, after a short discussion of the fiction of general debate" and the failure of members to attend the sittings of the house while subjects covering the widest possible latitude were being discussed, launched out in a defense of the Hepburn rate bill, and the high position taken by the house, not only in the exceptional character of the legislation but in the dignified way in which the bill passed the low CT branch. In this connection he rldl- culed the constitutional debaters in the senate.
 Increased pay for letter carriers. a subject which has been a fruitful source of impasisoned eloquence for a number of years also gave the partis- ans of these men an opportunity to put themselves again on the record.

STRIKE VIOLENCE
Recorder Con Speaks on It fin Sentence
 ing a Prisoner.


 New York, April 12.-Recorder Golf, in sentencing Frank Hawkins to the penitentiary for one year to-day, spoke at some length on strike violence. Hawkins, who is an iron worker, was convicted of assaulting Samuel Ander- son on February 22 Hawkins with other iron workers had quit work on one of the Post & McCord contracts, and Anderson had been employed to take one of the strikers places. Ander- son was met by crowd of strikers and beaten. In passing sentence.cRe- corder Golf said.
 The law gives to you and to every worklngman the right to organize for the betterment of your condition; the right to sell your labor to the highest bidder; the right to refuse to labor for any one that you do not like: the right to withhold your work except on con ditions that are agreeable to you. The law even goes so far as to extend to you the right to pursuade other men to adopt the same course, but when men representing organized labor step over the very broad and generous pro- visions of law and use violence as an argument to enforce their views upon their fellow men, then the law is vio- lated, and not only the rights of the individual are trampled upon, but the peace and safety of the community are in danger.
 The man Anderson had as much much freedom and right to work as you had to refuse to work and while it is in evidence that you said that this man took the bread out of your chill dren's mouths, you took the bread out of his children's mouths, and his chil- dren were just as dear to him as yours were to you"
