Chicago April i2:--
John Alexander Dowie's $ contro-
versy with Voliva and the other
revolutionists at Zion City shrank
into iusigni6cance just before mid
night last night, at which hour the
self-styled apostle faced the Great
Maker of all. On his kness in the
center OF his chamber in the Aud
itorium Annex, whence he had
stumbled from his bed in the midst
of a racking illness, DR.. Dowie in
.plored heavenly aid in what may
be his final struggle with disaster.
1t was at the close of strenuous
day that the Zionist was attacked.
His collapse seemed so extreme that
personal attendants, all of whom
have been taught to shun medicine,
urged that the y be allowed to send
for physician.
II want no doctor, = said Dowie,
feebly- Il will have no physician.
] shall ask divine assistance-that
is the only real help"
Then with convulsive move
ment Dowie struggled from his bed
and stumbled toward the center of
the room. He had gone but few
feet when he sank on his knees and
muttered a prayer. His attendants
carried him back to the bed again
and at ) O'Clock this morning he
was said to be sleeping.

Gampsons, master: William Fry, first mate

boy; all OF Bridgewater. October IS, 1906.
The interesting part about the entire In
cdent is that the bottle was thrown over
board at the mouth OF the Bristol channel,
carried round Lands End, up the English
channel, and across the North sea. until
II was finally deposited on the shore six
weeks after It was dropped In the water

BARTHoLDT FOR BOND ISSUE
Missouri Congressman Proposes 20
borrow Half Billion for Internal
improvements,

ST. LOUIS, Dec 29.-Forty bankers,
manufacturers and jobbers representing
the financial interests of st. Louis rendered
"A dinner at the st. Louis club tonight to
Congressman Richard Bartholdt OF St
Louis, chairman of the committee of pub
lie buildings and grounds of the house of
representatives, and an address was de-
livered by him in which he declared in
favor of a national policy of Issuing bonds
for internal improvements and especially
the waterways
Mr.. Bartholdts announcement was con-
sidered especially important in view of
the fact that 1t is made deliberately, and
he has been engaged for several weeks in
Washington in perfecting the plan which
he explained tonight. Mr.. Bartholdt said.
in part:
Since the civil war every great question
which has divided political parties las
been business question pure and simple.
Whether desirable or not, 1t is the trend
of the times and from IT we have right
TO conclude that the political party IL most
likely to succeed which has been most
matters and which now is most willing
to champion the cause of the general well
fare by promoting the most important
business policy which was ever before the
country, namely. the policy OF internal
improvements on a grand scale, including
the development of waterways, the cree
ton OF public buildings and the impro re
ment of the roads and highways OF the
country.
The government, I insist, should be con-
trolled by business principles An issue OF
or 3 per cent bonds to the amount OF
$500, 900, 600 to be distributed over period
of say ten years, will suffice to complete
solve the problem of the continuous and
permanent improvement OF our great
waterways. II is my deliberate judgment
that IL cannot be done in any other way,
and II the gentlemen here present think
well OF IL, shall draft and Introduce
bill to that effect without further delay
l am well aware OF the existing preju-
dice against an issue Of bonds In time Of
peace. The prejudice would be justified
II the government proposed to borrow
money in order 10 defray its running ex-
penses, but here we contemplate an extra
ordinary expenditure with an ample re-
turn for every dollar and with all the
guarantees of a permanent investment for
the lasting benefit OF the present, well
as future generations

REFORM IN POLICE RULES
Germany Shocked at Revelation Of
Treatment of Reformed Pris-
Oners In Berlin.

BERLIN, Dec. 2s-(Special) -William
Weight has every prospect of having his
name handed down in history, not only as
the brilliant raider OF Koepnick, but also
as the pioneer OF new humane legislation
abolishing the present system Of police SUI
pervision Of discharged prisoners.
The revelation at his trial of the ex-
Evolutionary persecution, which he endured
despite the fact that he systematically en-
deavOred to resume an honest career, has
aroused such storm OF public indigna-
ton and stimulated a strong popular APP
peal for the abolition or at least radical
reform Of a system which is universally
acknowledged to be barbarous and I'M
worthy OF a civilized country.
The national liberal party. which In spite
Of its name Is really conservative. has
taken up the matter and will introduce
an Interpolation in the Rsichstag at an
early date to demand a pledge from the
government to introduce a bill reforming
the present system.

FAIRCHILD is IN ITALY
Indicted Insurance Man Says He VIII
Return TO United States II
Necessary.

ROME, Dec 2.-Charles s. Fairchild, ex-
secretary of the United States treasury
who with George w. Perkins of New York
was indicted yesterday by the grand jury
at that city in connection with the affairs
of the New York Life Insurance company,
has been here for three weeks.
Mr. Fairchild said 1
The matters referred to are probably
in connection with the Chicago & North
western and the ST. Paul railroad securi-
ties OF which the insurance company held
large amounts Under its bylaws the
company, 1t was believed, must remove the
stocks from its assets, and 1t could not
sell such large amounts Of inactive stocks
without serious loss and apparently, re-
quested the trust company, OF which l am
president, to take these stocks and hold
them until an advantageous sale could be
made. The books OF the trust company
show that these stocks were taken. Sub
sequently, for some reason the holdings
were changed into the form Of loans TO
individuals, and later, am told, the stocks
we're sold at a profit of several hundreds
OF thousand dollars to the policyholders of
the insurance company, with no profit or
advantage TO any other company or in
dividual. The transaction occurred long
ago and cannot now be certain about the
details.
What state is based upon a recent in
spection of the books of the trust com
pany and from statements made TO me by
others. I have no recollection Of any affair
connected with Prussian bonds
Il personally derived no profit from the
transactions on which the indictments were
based"
