WOMEN SING AS THEY VOTE
Election Held Under Order of Court
Confirms Vollva's Control and
Leaves Dowie Out in Cold,
a Helpless Invalid. '
CHICAGO, Sept. 18-Wllbur G. Voliva
was chosen today by the people of Zion
City as their leader by the overwhelming
vote of 1911 to six for his opponent, A. N.
Bills. The election was held today under
the orders of Judge Landis, of the United
States District Court, who was asked
some time ago to settle the controversy
between John Alexander Dowie, founder
of the church, and Voliva, as to who
should have control of Zion City. Believ
ing that the best way to settle the diffi
culty was to let tte people of Zion City
choose their own leader, Judge Landis
ordered the election and today's vote Is
the result.
The action of the Zionltes today prac
tically makes John Alexander Dowie an
outcast from the religious organization
which he established several years ago
and which has grown to large propor
tions. Dowie, who is in feeble health, re
fused to recognize the authority of the
court in ordering the election and did not
present himself as a candidate.
Out of the total of 1917 votes cast, about
half were by the women of Zion City,
who went to the polls singing hymns, cast
their votes and then knelt in prayer at
the door of the voting place.
