NEW AGREEMENT PROPOSED
WILL BRIDGE OVER TARIFF DIFF.
FERENCES WITH GERMANY
UNTIL CONGRESS ACTS.

Washington, March l1-As result
of consultations between Secretary
Root and Director North, the head Of
the American tariff expert commission
which visited Germany, relative to the
making of some tariff arrangements
between the two countries, 1t may be
stated that the conclusion has been
reached that before the expiration of
the German order suspending for a
year the application Of the German
maximum tariff rates to American Inn
ports on July next, new arrange
ment will have been made which will
bridge over the period Of time be-
tween that date and the reassembling
Of the next congress. The basis for
the new agreement will be section 8
of the Dingley act. under the terms Of
which the president is authorized to
grant reductions of duties on certain
commodities In return for the mini
mum tariff rates Of other countries
BY the time congress meets again Il
Is probable that general trade or
reciprocity treaty will be ready for its
action.

ETRIKE OF ELECTRICIANS IN THE
FRENCH CAPITAL ASSUMES
SERIOUS ASPECT.
THREATENS TO SPREAD FURTHER
EMPLOYEES OF PRINCIPAL LINE
OF TRANSPORTATION MAY
JOIN STRIKERS.

Paris, March 1.-THE strike Of cleo
tricians has assumed a serious aspect.
The men employed by the two remain
ing independent companies have
Joined those already out and unless
the dispute Is settled Immediately 1t
is feared that the workmen of the gas
company and the. employees of the Met
ropolitan Underground railroad. on
which the majority of the population
relies for transportation, will be In
duced to leave their work In sympathy
with the strikers.
Not since the siege Of Paris in 1870
has the city been plunged In such
darkness as the past night and the
affair, coming without warning, has
aroused the most intense resentment.
In addition to the inconvenience re-
sulting from the closing Of places Of
amusement and the stopping Of boule-
ward and cafe life, which is feature
of Paris, the business interests OF the
capital are keenly alarmed at the pros
pect of heavy material losses. II the
strike continues the stores will be
obliged to close at dusk, many OF the
workshops and manufactures will be
compelled to shut down on account OF
the lack Of motive power and the for
eign visitors, on whom the hotels and
many tradespeople largely subsist,
will be driven away. The newspa-
pers, with the exception OF the out and
out socialist organs, severely condemn
the strike and insist that the govern
ment should intervene and compel the
parties to the dispute to reach q
prompt settlement
During the day steam engines and
automobiles were set up In front OF
the newspaper offices to furnish the
power necessary to run OF the after
noon edition.

Chicago, March 1.-THE death o,
John Alexander Dowie, founder of the
Christian Catholic church, while sud

had been Dowie's custom to hold re
ligious services every Sunday after
noon In the parlor Of Shiloh House
About $50 of his original followers re
mained faithful and attended these
services. Dowie always wore his
apostolic robes and made a charac,
teristic address. Five weeks ago
these meetiags ceased and Dowie ap-
peared no longer In public. The Sun
day meetings, however, were still held
by his adherents. Since that time
Dowie had been gradually failing. The
afternoon prior to his death. however,
there was no indication Of the ap-
preaching end. He received few
followers and prayed for some people.
His condition seemed to be about the

was relieved by the other attendant.
Shortly before a. m. Dowie became
delirious and his talk was the same
as at q religious meeting in the days
OF his prime. He denounced people
with the old time vigor, ordered the
guards to throw out disturbers and
acted just as he had on SO many pre-
vious occasions. He gradually became
weaker and weaker and the attendant
telephoned for Judge d. N. Barnes,
who reached Shiloh House at a. m.
Forty minutes later Dowie died.

REPLIES TO INTERPRETATION.
Japanese Foreign Minister Discusses
Relations With America.


Toxic, March 11.-Replying to sen
sational Interpolation In the house OF
representatives, In which the Japa
nese were represented as suffering
humiliation at the hands OF Amer
leans, Foreign Minister Hayashi called
attention to the existence Of the last
clause of article Of the treaty with
the United States. He said that this
clause was inserted In order to secure
q ratification Of the treaty by the
United States senate. Japan, he said,
was at that time revising the treaty
to abrogate extra territoriality, which
was the greatest humiliation. Con
tinuing to reply to the Interpolation
Minister Hayashi emphasized the i'm
portance of approaching the question
of Japan's relations with America
calmly and In peaceful spirit. as ex-
citement would only tend to increase
the difficulties and injure the tradi-
tional friendly relations of both ma
tions. He also pointed out the indis-
putable good will of President Roose-
velt and his government toward ia
pan.

During the next five years Dowie
was arrested at least 100 times for
violation of the city ordinances relat
ing to the care of the sick, but the
more trouble that was made for him
the more he prospered In reality
Branch churches were established In
other cities; large hospital for the
healing Of the sick was built in Chi
cago and a college for the training OF
missionaries was organized, print
ing plant put in operation and bank
also started.
The Christian Catholic church Ia
Zion City, the outgrowth of the orig
sociation, was formally organized in
February, 1896, Dowie becoming gen
eral overseer. -Four years afterwards
Dowle, before a large audience In the
Auditorium theater, announced that
he was Elijah the restorer, spoken Ct
in Malachi This assumption Of q
Biblical personality created even more
of sensation among his followers
than any of the worldly successes OF

Foundation OF Zion City.
Previous to this Dowie had marked
out his plans for Zion City, tn a rown-
ing effort of his life. Six thousand
acres of land were purchased or Sc.
cured by options and In August, 1901,
the first building was erected In Zion
City, which a year later had popula-
tion of 10000. In Zion City as well
as the church Dowie was supreme.
The title of the 5000 acres bought
with the money of the sect rested in
him. Lots were leased, not sold. IL
December, 1908, Zion City was placed
under control OF a federal receiver
ship, which was dissolved a week
later On Dowie's presentation Of abil
ity to pay dollar for dollar all indebt.
edness At that time Dowie estimated
the value of his holdings in Zion City
at s25,000,000. Since then the value
of the lace factory, the other indus
tries and holdings at Zion City are
believed to have increased to $28,00o,-
600.
Eighteen months ago Dowie began
the promotion of second Zion City in
Mexico. While engaged in this under
taking his health failed and he went
to Jamaica shortly before Christmas,
1905, for his health. While there he
suffered q stroke Of paralysis, from
which he never fully recovered. 1t
was at this time that he appointed
Wilbur Glenn Voliva his first lieuten-
ant and general overseer Of the
church. A month after Voliva took
charge in Zion City he, by power OF
attorney vested in him by Dowie, had
all the property belonging to the
church transferred from Dowie to
Overseer Granger, charging extrav-
agance and gross mismanagement by
Dowie.

Beginning OF His Career.

Dowie landed In San Francisco In
1883, needing money. He needed $3.50
and had just told his wife he had
asked God for it," he said, when a
man he had not seen In months came
along and put the amount In his hand.
That was the starting point in his
wonderful money getting career In the

youth was clerk In business house.
Here Dowie developed the CONNER
cial instinct that served him SO well
later In life. He saved enough money
during this period to return to Edin-
burgh at the age of twenty to take a
five years course In theology and the
arts. He became a master of Greek
and Hebrew and cultivated a literary
taste that resulted in after years in a
library of 10000 volumes, with which
he was thoroughly familiar.
Six years of denominational activity
wearied Dowie, who longed for a
wider field of operations. He forsook
his church and in 1878 went to Mel
bourne, where he set up a Free Chris
tian tabernacle-the first of its kind
and organized a divine healing asso-
citation, which afterwards became in
ternational in character. He became
president of this association and
gained fame by going out into the
country during the prevalence of pu-
trid fever and apparently effecting
many cures by prayer and the laying
on of hands.
After ten years In Melbourne Dowie
decided to remove to England, where
his association had a number of
branches, but the fates took him
across the Pacific and his announced
