ZION TO BE SOLD UP.
If anyone wants to buy a city they will more than likely soon have the opportunity, for Mr Voliva, who succeeded the “Prophet” Dowie as leader in Zion City, declares that unless he receives the support of all the factious in the place he will declare the city bankrupt, and have it sold by auction. Mr Yoliva says that high officials of the society are “out for graft” and tire various sects are striving for supremacy. He has expelled several members of the Church cabinet and is doing his best to purge the city of corruption. Mr]Yoliva is being opposed by a certain section headed by a deacon named Speicher and nightly meetings are held by the opposing factious.
