THE INTERNATIONAL IN.
FORMATION BUREAU"
Who Finances This Agency for the
Indictment of Disorder?

To THE EDITOR OF III SuN-Sir. l
was much interested in your article
entitled From the international In
formation Bureau" Several months
before the war began we regularly re-
ceived these bulletins addressed to the
Transcript. We were at "A loss to UNI
derstGnd their meaning and origin. In
fact " became 20 curious that we
wrote the editors of two Washington
papers for enlightenment, but they re-
piled that they knew nothing concern
ing the matter.
IL my memory serves me Alright
Bulletin 81 Is mild In comparison to
several that have preceded 1t in abus-
ing our Government and those admin
istering 1t, not excepting the Presi-
dent. We a had vague fears that
these documents would incitc some
lunatic to attack the Federal officials
but could not learn anything definite
concerning their origin.
1t wouid appear to me that they
are a part Of the German propaganda
directed at England and seeking TO
arouse public sentiment in favor OF
Germany at the same time. Can you
give us any definite information?
II they are coming from German
sources might the fact that they began
their attacks on England some nine
months before the war bc taken as am
other link in placing on Germany the
blame for starting he mighty
slaughter?
am enclosing two OF their bulletins,
which happened to be on ms desk as |
read your editorial article. They are
not quite as violent as No. 81, but Will
give an idea of their general nature.

The Bunker Hill Monument Argu-
mont.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: The
letter OF Mr.. Rene Bache printed In
TIL SUN Of July I on the subject OF
immortality will probably arouse the
usual interest inspired by the eternal
riddle. which has not been solved by
revelation or psychical research, un
less we accept faith. which is the sub
stance Of things hoped for. the evi
dence Of things unseen" Mr.. Bache
believes In the existence of Bunker
I'M Monument although he has never
seen II, hut the evidence Justiiies MS
belief. Does he believe that the other
planets are inhabited? There is no
proof OF this. but II would be Infinitely
more absurd not TO believe that life
exists throughout the universe. Of which
we are but an insignificant atom.
May We not regard the belief In i'm
mortality as a sort Of spiritual In
stlnct? A suggestion from the innef
consciousness? a hint from the period
zeal resurrection of life In the spring
after the deathlike clutch OF winter?
Sleep itself is "A sort of modified
death from which we awaken to 4
renewed life every morning.
The human mind is incapable Of
grasping the meaning OF eternity. 50
1t is IA wise Providence that has Limited
the conception TO something We cali
time, q series OF events that our MIND
can comprehend. Life and death are
two correlAt!ve phases Of existence

scheme of things for which We may
have cause to he thankful.

Where do Christians locate heaven; |

heaven OF the Apostles Greed, the
place to which He assembled and
s.tteth at the right hand OF God the
Father: and thence He shall come"
We all speak OF good gifts coming
from "above.' and OF descending
into the bottomlcss pit but as the
terms up and down are unthiuk-

pended.

When people get time to apply their
mental processes to the recent pro
cedure in the Thaw case. they may
grasp the fact that the writ Of habeas
corpus has been practically abolished
Go far as THAw is concerned. by the
Hon. PETER \. HENpRicK, one of the
Justices Of their Supreme Court, and
this Notwithstanding the provision in
the Constitution Of the State of New
York which prohibits the suspension
" that privilege except when. In
G ases of rebellion or invasion. the
public safety may require 1t.
The learned Judge has decided and
declared that THAw is SAN and is
therefore entitled to his liberty; yet
at the same time he refuses to set
him free unless he gives "A bond OF
$4,000! Suppose he had not been
wealthy enough to furnish this Sc
curity, would Judge ~ITESDRICK have
remanded him to the asylum for he
criminal insane? Is the writ of ha-
beas corpus thus TO be made effective
only in the case of rich persons under
restraint? 1t will be found quite in
teresting to reflect upon what would
have been the consequences to all con-
cerned if THAw had been unable or
unwilling to give the bond which was
exacted by the Judge as a condition
for his release.
Is the bond worth any more than
the value of the sheet Of paper 1t IS
Written on?
Certainly. the writ Of habeas corpus
has become a vain and useless thing
for the ordinary citizen unlawfully
restrained of his liberty if it is not
effective to set him free unless he can
furnish such pecuniary security as
