ZION CITY IN UPROA.R}
Awful Facts in Regard to Murder
Of Mrs. GreenhauIgh Causes
u Excitement in the City
WANT ALL CONNECTED HELD

Zion City is greatly wrought upover
connection with the death Of Mrs.
Letitia Greenhanlgh in that city on
Wednesday evening and the members
Of the Zion Church who are now Hv-f
ing in Kenosha have fastened to give
out statements to show that they had
no sympathy with the people or the
sect that is alleged to have beenre-
sporsible for the weird killing of the.
aged woman. There were no develop
ments in the case today as Coroner
Taylor of Lake county has decided to
take his time to give the story the
fullest possible investigation. Some
of the people of Zion claim that the
story of the death of the woman has
been greatly exaggerated by foes of
the old Dowie faction and some even
insist that the story as it was given to
the press on Friday was part Of a
conspiracy against one of the rival
candidates for General Overseer of
the church, but the men who have
carefully investigated the case de-
clare that it is fact that the wom-
ans death resulted from the rough
handling given her by religious
zealots in their effort to drive the de-
mons from the body of the woman.
One of the best known of the busi-
ness men of Zion City was in Kenosha
yesterday evening and when shown
the report of the killing Of the woman
he said, "This is just what some of us
at Zion have expected for weeks. The
development of that Parhamite move
lment has BODIED evil from it's incep-
ton and the people have been repeat
edly warned against the growth of
such fanaticism. Nearly all of the
people connected with the tragedy of
Wednesday are of the lower stations
in life and their ignorance has led
them into following the doctrines of
Parham because he offered some thing
of the sensational nature. These peo-
pie are intenselysrelig but they
have carried their religion to such
point that it can be considered moth
ing but a form of insanity and the
events of the week show that it is an
insanity of the most dangerous type.
There is no doubt but that these peo-
pie have treated other people in
similar manner but have no per sonal
knowledge of any person who has
died as a result of their so called
ministrations. The people of Zion
City who are not fanatics will insist
that these misguided people be taken
care of by the state of Illinois and if
the case is not one for the courts of
Justice it is certainly one that de-
mands prompt action. In my mind
there is no question but that these
people are hopelessly insane and there
are 40 less than two hundred of them
in Zion City,.
The people charged with the death
of the aged woman are now in Wan
kegar IN Jail and they will be held
there pending the further investiga-
ton. The story of the murder of the
woman has shocked the entire world
and Zion City is filled up with news
paper men today who are looking for
some new facts in regard to the crime
and the people who are alleged to
have been responsible for the death.

TIE horrible killing of a woman at
Zion last week by band of religious
fanatics shows something of the utter
decentralization into which the city
has fallen and if the authorities of
Lake county do their duty they will
lock up some of the lunatics that walk
the streets of the city. They can no
longer be classed as harmless.
