ITALY.
ROME, February 20.
The Italian railway employd are adopt. ing novel means to further their demands for better conditions.
They have decided not to leave work, but to pursue a policy of obstruction. This lies in observing to the letter the regula tions of the railways. All sorts of delays are brought about by following the minutest detail of routine. Tickets are checked with studied deliberation; trains do not leave -the stations until every passenger is seen safely inside and the doors have all been closed with scrupulous care. Passengers are not left behind if by any means a short delay will help them to enter the trains. -The result is that the whole system is be-
coming rapidly disorganised. Timetables are completely upset, and, as the dis tubance has taken place in the height of the tourist season, the effect is very serious.
Many English visitors ar being seriously inconvenienced, particularly at Florence, Rome, and Naples, Furious protests against delays are answered by the imper- turbable employés drawing attention to the fact that they are merely adhering to the rules of the service.
1
ROME, February 28. The red-tape strike on the Italian rail- ways continues, but the men are becoming tired of the obstructionist methods which they adoptod, and in many cases trains are now tunning within an hour or two of their scheduled time.

for a term of 75 years, with the option noticeable in the case of perishable goods,
of renewal at a Crown Rent to be fixed which are held up on hundreds of sidings
by the Surveyor of His Majesty the throughout the kingdom, and are now to- tally useless.
Small riots are reported from dozens of places where exasperated passengers have wrought revenge on the obstructioniststri- kers. There is no sympathy with the men, because there is hardly a family in Italy
which has not suffered in some way by the
: strike.
The tourist traffic has been at a standstill.

so far as newcomers are concerned, but, on
the other hand, this has been made up for

DOWIL AT SAN FRANCISCO.
Sued For Debt
SAN FRANCISCO, March 15. John Alexander Dowie, the dictator of Zion City, who describes himself as the second Elijah, assumes other titles to in dicate that he has the gifts of healing and inspired prophecy, must pay the amount for which Hugh Craig sued him," according to a judgement
ment given
yesterday by Supe. rior Judge Murasky. Dowie's denial of the debt is not accepted by the Judge Craig brought suit for $1,764.9), which Dowie has owed him since 1888, and for interest at 7 per cent. per annum since that time. The interest now amounts to more then the principal.
Dowie came hero from Australia in 1888, being then a healer, whose business it was to give missions, at which collections were aken. He brought a letter to Craig from the latter's parents, Craig's mother having fallen ander Dowie's spell in New Zealand.. as Craig himself
received him here. Craig
Dowie laid hand "
on Mrs Craig and one of Craig's children, and physically benefited them, it was said, and at the close of the year Craig advanced the money required for holding a serios of Dowie meetings in the Grand Opera Bouse. He paid out $2,727,36, and the collections repaid him to the extent of $962.46. Dowic then left this State, and did not return until quite recently, when he passed through San Francisco his way to Australia, making a tour of the world. Craig's suit was then begun, and service of the papers on the prophet was secured bore. Craig had not pressed Dowie for the balance due him until he read Elijah's proclamation to his followers, that the Lord had blessed him abundantly, and that he would repay fourfold every one who had aided him.
After Craig learned of Dowie's immenso wealth, and made his demand, Dowie, then on his way to San Francisco, sent two of his saints, or ministers, ahead of him and offered to give Craig 8500 as a matter of charity if he or his family were in need, 1376 The offer was declined.

His bill of particulara filed in the suit mentions a payment of $2.80 for the fourteen collection baskets provided for the Grand Opera House mission, and the advancement of $252.55 för Dowie's board
at the Palace Hotel. Dowie's remarkable: attention to details was shown in this suit. All letters and other documents which he has received are preserved and systematical- ly filed, with his replies. Scores of letters from Craig and others in relation to his mision work here in 1889 were sent on from Zion City by him.

THE FARTHQUAKE IN INDIA
Further Details of the Catastrophe.
Bombay, April 9.-Later details show that the earlier reports of the havoc wrought by the earthquake in Dharmala and Kangra Valley were less than the truth. There had been no preliminary warnings and there was, in most cases. no Almost time nor opportunity for escape. in the twinkling of an eye whole townships and village were wiped out of existence. Scarcely a house or building of any des- oription remained standing.
The Gurkhas in the Dharmsala canton ment suffered terribly. The 7th Gurkhas, who had only just arrived and were housed in substantially-built European barracks, are believed to have 100 killed. The 21st Gurkhas lost about 50 men, and the depôt of the 1st Gurkhas lost about 20 men. All the barracks appear to have suffered the same total destruction as the rest of the civil and military station.
When it became possible for survivors to examine the extent of the catastrophe an appalling scene of desolation presented it. self. Practically the whole of the civil and military station was in ruins. The only house left standing in Dharmsala was Cap- tain Bateman Champain's, but the Treasury a very substantial building, -strang.room,
also escaped. Even the new court-house, builty very solidly, and only about twelve fent above the ground; was absolutely des- troyed. Immediately after the catastrophe relief parties were organised among the survivors, and in the work of rescue and recovery of the dead the Gurkhas did yeo. man service. Every building, without ox- coption, in Kangra and Bhawan, is in ruins, including the sessions house and sessions building.
The total number estimated to be alive is 500; and about 200 persons are on camp- ing ground outside the town. Many dead
