Chicago, Oct. 9.--On October i5th, Zion's host of crusaders will be on their way to New York. The past twenty fours hours has been utilized in packing literature into the cars, which will transport it east, and the literature will await the host's arri- val in New York. Small maps of New York city have been passed out, with printed guides, . « The guide shows' the distance and lo- ention of each district, from Madison Square Garden, the prevailing nation- ality of ite residents, whether rich or poor, and also whether the district is thickly or sparsely settled. Here and there in Zion City at all hours of the day may be seen Dowie ites, with maps and guides in their hands, quizzing each other to see if they have learned their lessons. "Zion is built upon assets of $23, 000,000, and financial storms will nev- er wreck its firm foundations." Dowie once made this statement in response to the fire of criticism which hoped to wreck his financial standing. DNTONEW YORK FROM JAIL TO MILLIONS 10.

The conversation was tremendously interesting as usual. The witty, shining and smooth faced barrister had given out some of his most pointed sayings and decisions; the bright old gentle- man, with the sweet tenor voice, had wondered why the Royal Military ca- dets and the Queen's students, pli 80 eagerly agree to have their sports on the same day; the collector of pe- culiar scores had elaborately described the wonders of one of the latest rub- bers; the good humoured bauker had just narrated one of the thriling and long-winded tales of which he has the monopoly. Then there was a silence. It was the laborious moment of the formation of bridge tables. Already some tlever manoeuvres were slightly sketched here and there. - A final engagement was soon to take place, when the moral crank unctuously slipped im. And with him came an atmosphere of sancti- Whether he was worth that amount when the statement was made a lit- tle over a year ago, only Dowie him self knew. How mijuch his wealth has increased since that time Dowie only knows, and since the financial world has beconle rather firmly convinced of his financial strength, and since criti cism has taken other avenues of at tack, this wonderful man is not likely to tell. One fact shined, out alone and in disputably--Dowie"s wealth is the wealth of Zion, for Dowie is Zion, and i# to be measured by the most con servative only in the millions.

Every dollar that belongs to the Zion City' corporaticn is in his name and subject to his sole order, every inch of ground and foot of building has been deeded personally to -him; even the sums which his followers 'de posit in unknown quantities in the Zion bank are Dowie's to do with as he pleases, .
