New York, Oct. 27. — In a> broken voice, with tears streaming dowft his tace and his bpdy shaking with emo- tion, John Alexander Dowie in Madi- son Square garden last night before an audience of 10,000 persons, announced that lie wais not the son of John Mur- ray Dowie of Essex, la,, from whom he takes ujs patronymic, but of a British army officer of high family by a \Scotoh marriage.\ He heaped vlllillcatioa upon Johh Murray Dowie, who he declared had made his mother believe her marriage to Dowio's father was shameful. The army officer, he said, having been tak- en away by his relatives, his mother to the first flush of her shame bad sought to give her son a name by mar- jying John Murray Dpwie. The revelation was made at the end of on hour's tirade against the prpsa of thla city. Its treatment of Ms work and himself being styled a \conspiracy of falsehood,\ the reporters denounced as \yellow dogs, ^poisonous xoptljoa who hnvo wrecked thousands of homes and broken thousands of hearts.\ ,Mr. Dowie in a passionate rose declared \tho yellow dog\ should be rattuled by a censorship law if the country la to bo saved. Renounced John Murray Bowl©, In tills way ho'led up to tho publica- tion of extracts from letters passing between himself and John Murray Dowie, Indicating Dowio's renuncia- tion of tho latter as a paront, and which were responsible for tho spn- oral overseer's partial exposition of Ho Great secret of his life. Shouting at one moment in A lit, of violent «ago at'the newspapers, Mr. Dowie would tho next raomont speak In tho most gontlo volco of his moth- er and wife. Tho great audience was moved by hla ovldont emotion. Wom- en wept and at times burets of ap- plause greeted Ids declarations. Dowlo said a man la Boston had at- tempted to blackmail him In relation to lottorn between himself and John Murray Dowie, \That man wroto mo, 1 * said Mr. Dowie, \that tho letters If published might cause mo annoyance, and in tho generoalty of his heart said that for $1,00$ ho would turn them over to mo Instead of to a Chicago newspaper. Garbled extracts from these tetters wore published. In a paper in this city thla tnornlns. Those lottera havo como either by robbery or a sin much deeper and moro wicked, tho basest of all aln.\ Mr. Dowlo was becoming greatly ex- cited and trampod tho platform with nervous stops, bis framo quivering with tho Intensity of his emotion. \Tho best proof that John Murray Dowie was not my father,\ he shouted, \Is that ho has given up my letters to him, rebuking: him for tho Most ter- rible Bin a man could over commit, In my judgment. Worb It all against myself, I would not care, but thero Is ono, tho doareat, sweetest, purest wo- man that over was. who Is now 10 years, thank God, In Heaven—my mother.\ Mr. Dowlo told tho history of the let- tors from his knowledge* and then called on his overseers for a verifica- tion of his story. They all said It was true. * Read From a Zlon Newspaper. < Dowie read from a Zlon newspaper of a year ago, showing publication of aa attempt at blackmail. Then with dramatic Intensity the Zlon leader be- gan his recital of the facts behind the letters. \I had determined long ago that If ever It must come out, wherever I was, no matter what the assemblage, I should tell m? story. \My another was a noble woman. Sho was greatly beloved by the pri- vates and officers of one of the fore- most regiments of the British army. My people had been connected with the army for centuries. I supposed 1 was the son of John Murray Dowie who now lives in Essex, la, and I never ceased to wonder how he could have been my father. He was mean and hypocritical. Then evil times «amo upon him and at my bwn ex- pense I brought him from Australia.\ Then Dr, Dowie told how John Mur- ray Dowie had become 111 and Dr. Dowie told him that until he confessed what was on his conscience he could not be healed. John Murray Dowie asked that he be prayed for; be was and later recovered. He then sent to Dr. Dowie \papers which explained- everything. \My father was a man of high standing. He led one of the great charges in the Crimean war and died like a soldlor at the head of his troops. . \f want to say that I never wanted this Btory td come out, but it is known that 1 am not the son of the miserable scoundrel Who, in order to strike at me, sold the letters In which I re- proached hlni, toMhe vile press of New Yoilc*' , Black?rwiths' Demand Refused.
