ZIONISTS GOING WEST
D0WIE TO BE LEFT IN ILLINOIS
TO FIGHT CREDITORS.

CHICAGO. January 2s.-Zion City Is to
be deserted by Wilbur Glenn Voliva and all
those over whom he holds sway. A new
Zion City Is to be founded, probably on
the Pacific coast. and DR.. Dowie and his
creditors viii be left to fight out the ques-
ton Of supremacy here.
Rumors Of such impending action have
circulated In Zion City ever since last
summer when Overseer John c. Spelclier
was sent to Los Angeles to assume charge
OF the various colonies on the Pacific coast.
1t was said Speicher was to select the site
for the new colony This was repeatedly
denied until yesterday. when the rumor
was confirmed by Voliva himself at q meet
ing held in Zion temple.
Within few weeks voliva will go on a
trip OF inspection. visiting all the churches
north and west OF here which recognize
him leader. This will include trip
down the Pacific coast from Seattle to Los
Angeles.
On Prospecting Tour.
1t was practically admitted that on his
journey he would view several sites now
under consideration. 1t is probable that
on the return trip Voliva will visit certain
sections OF the gulf coast of Texas. where
the land and the climate are similar to that
of southern California.
The reasons for abandoning the present
Zion City was not defined clearly by VoIiva
In his address. but they are known never
theless The factions in Zion Ia one of thu
great contributing causes. and the other
Is the hopelessness Of making the religious
leader supreme in both temporal and eccle-
siasticai affairs long as the heavy debt
hangs over the place.
Not political but Christian socialism,"
has been the text of many of Volivas
sermons. He believes such a colony found
ed in some warm climate where fruit rails
ing. truck gardening and agriculture can
be engaged in would prove q success, and
1t Is his purpose to lead his pvople ~ 4
land where this can be done.

In reply to questions DR.. Pilgrim

RAILROAD NEWS.
Railroads Will Advance Grain
Rates From Chicago to Atlantic.
Another Raise From River
Points to Gulf to Follow.
EFFECTIVE ON APRIL 1
Regarded by Commerce COM
mission as General Movement.
Other Items of Interest to
Railroad People.
EFFECTIVE ON APRIL 1

Washington, March 20.-The inter-
state commerce commission received
official notice today that the railroads
would on April L increase rates on
grain and grain products from Chi
cago to the seaboard from 2 to 4 cents
a hundred. y At the same time the
commission was informed, not official
ly, however, that rates from Chicago.
St. Louis and Kansas City to the Gulf
would socn be lifted proportionately
This is regarded as the first move by
the railroads to increase rates all
along the line.
The rate on grain for export from
Chicago to New York or Boston dur
ing the past two years ranged from
49, to Is cents a hundred. The roads
advised the commission that, begin
ming April l, the rates will be ad-
vanced to 17k and 10 cents respec-
lively.
The striking feature of the increase
is not only the amount of the increase
itself, but the fact that grain rates
from Chicago to the seaboard are 10
be increased at this time of year. Al
most invariably rates on grain to the
sea board have been reduced IN the
spring with the opening of navigation.
been been made in the fall, during the
period of the heavy movement OF
crops, and also at the time when naV1-
CATION on the great lakes closes.
the commission for the marked ad-
vance proposed in rates, although
from the general tendency in railroad
circles as brought out by more recent
conferences here, there has been mani
tested a disposition on the part of rail-
road operators to move rates upward,
because of the increased cost of trans
portation, coupled with attacks winch
they claim are being made upon them
through adverse legislation in various
states, reducing passenger and fre1ght
rates It is assumed at commission
HEADQUARTERS that the railroads are
seeking a higher level of rates in order
to recoup themselves for losses they
expect to suffer through adverse local
legislation. Throughout the long con-
traversy over railroad rates and rate
change was made in grain rates from
Chicago to the seabOard, and rates
which went into effect in the fall OF
1905 were permitted to stand until TINS
present notice.
Whether there will be complaints
against the increased rates of such
formal character that investigation
will be made by the commission is not
vet known. All the gossip that can
be heard about commission headquar-
tiers is in the line of regret that the
railroads should make the first mark
ed advance-upo such staple common
ties as grain and grain products. Whlle
the opinion is expressed at commits
sion Headquarters that some advances
in rates had been looked for. and the
tendency with respect to rates has
been upward during the past year, it
was hoped the advances would be con-
fined chiefly to merchandise and those
articles which might be classed as
luxurieS.
