John Alexander Dowie, through his attorney, rejected the preposition advanced by Oenwal Overer W. O.

It was stipulated that tho actUu of U members thereof bo final ia determining whether or not the deposed "first apes tie" or Voliva bo tho recognized head of the Catholic Christian church. Dowie rejected tho proposal oa the ground that act only would he aot ac qulcscs ia the appointment of Voliva oa the beard, but that ho no longer rec ognized tho new leader aa a member of tho church. Ia speaking of the ulti matum, P. C. Uawley, representing Dowie, said "As sooa as we eaa obtais. the acces sary iaformatiea we will file a bill in chancery ia tho eirouit court of Lake county at Wauliegaa.
