Paris, April 5O.-Ths ease OF the Able I,oisy Is

with Father HeckeF's book IN the United States
Tha Abba LOisy is a member OF the faculty Of thu
College OF France. and IS considered to be one OF
the abest scientists and theeIogans In the French
church. but some OF his books have taken ad-
ced ground, resulting in their condemnation by
the College Of the Propaganda, at Rome. In his
criticism OF the Gospels he follows the German
theological critics in maintaining that the Gospel
Of ST. John was not written by the Apostle John,
but was written years after the Apostles death.
The discussion has besn intensified by the action
OF the able relative to the condemnation Of his
works. Ills letter 10 the Cardinal Secretary OF
state acknowledges the receipt Of the notice of his
