One faction led by the Rev. John How
ard Melish of Brooklyn held that any war
is un-Christian and that no soldier can
serve without reproach. The other, of
which the Rev. Leighton Parks of New
York was the spokesman, while not
championing war, argued that it is the
duty Of the church to pray for those mon
who forsake civil pursuits in which the
remuneration might be greater, for tho
service of their country. Previously sew
eral delegates had urged the inclusion
in the ritual of a prayer for world peace.
The Rev. w. H. Milton of Wilmington,
N. c., introduced a resolution to this end
which was referred to the commission.
The prayers for the army and navy as
recommended if approved by the house
of Bishops will be in tentative use in the
next three years and will be acted upon
finally at the next general convention.
The House of Bishops approved the re-
port of the trustees of the pension fund
providing for a pension for all clergy
men after the age of S., and also amend
ed the minority report providing or favor
ing the appointment of Negro suffragan
bishop tc give the Negro suffragans d
temporary right Of succession to the do
cesar bishopric with vote in the House
Of Bishops.
This amendment probably will cause
discussion in the House Of Deputies, for
II adopted it may result In Negro bisn-
% temporarily presiding over . white

Germans Repulsed

To the north ard east of Sailly-Sail-
leset where the French have advanced
their line in the past few days at what
the Berlin war Office asserts was at a
cost in casualties not commensurate
with the gain, the Germans have made
a violent counter-attack, which was
repulsed by the French.
Berlin admits that in their attacks
on the Sars- Morval front the British
captured German positions. but says
these later were re-taken. Heavy
rains fell Thursday on the British
front, and, except for a slight gain by
King Georges men at Butte De War
lencourt and the repulse of German
counter attack. there, comparative
quiet prevailed
On Russian Front
AS yet no decisive result has been
achieved by either the Austro-Germans
or the Russians in the violent fghtlng
that has been going on for several days
in Volhynia and Galicia. The Petrograd
war office says that near Kiselin and
Svinusky in Volhynia, violent attacks
by the Teutonic Allies were repulsed
while Berlin records the capture OF Rus
sian trenches on the west bank OF the
Stokhod and the repulse with heavy
casualties Of Russian attacks near Bub.
now.
South Of Zborow in Galicia several en-
terprises have been carried out success
fully by the Austrians. while at other
points Russian attacks were put down.
Rumanian Offensive
Having held the Teutonic Allies in
the mountain passes on the Transylva<
nia-Rumania border for several days the
Rumanians have taken the offensive at
various points and are now declared to
be pushing back their adversAies who
are leaving prisoners and guns in the
hands of TIE Rumanians. Berlin. how
ever, controverts this statement by the
assertion that the Teutons are engaged
in successfully fighting in the mountain
passes.
Generally speaking. there is no change
in the situation in Macedonia, although
both the Entente and Teutonic allies
make claims to minor successes on va-
rious sectors. The Bulgarians in the
vicinity of Monastir are bringing up REIN
forcements and large number of trench
mortars.
Except on Mount Pasubio. in the Tren-
tino region, where the Austrians In vio-
lent attacks recaptured positions taken
Tuesday by the Italians only to be driven
out again, artillery duels are taking place
in the Austro- Italian theatre.
The Cunard Line steamer Albania, on
her way from New York to London, has
been sunk by a mine between Falmouth
and London. A few members of her crew
are missing. The passengers of the Aiau-
mia had been landed previously.

Built in Maine

New Bedford. Mass. Oct.19.-The
schooner Richard w. Clark, reported
captured in the waters Of Iceland and
taken to Grimsby was a three-masted
coasting vessel. The Clark made from
this port trips to Dominique. Las
Palmas and Fayal, carrying supplies
to the whaling feet and bringing home
the catch of the whalers.
After her return with the catch this
summer, she was sold to New York
parties for $4,000 which was $4,000 more
than it cost to build her seven years
ago. At the time it was understood
that the Clark was to be used in the
trans Atlantic freight service. IL is
not believed here that the big coaster
was engaged in fishing as intimated in
the report of her capture.
The Clark was built at Phippsburg,
Me-, in 1909 by F.. S. Bowker. She is
14S feet long. 33 feet beam and has a
depth of 10 feet. She was formerly
owned in this city and was command
ed by Capt A. A. Corey.

Cunard Liner Sunk
in English Channel
The Alaunia Strikes Mine and Some of Crew Be-
lieved Lost-21 Americans from N e w Y O. k
Landed Before Accident

New York, Oct. 19.--The Cunard
liner Alaunia which sailed from this
port Oct. was sunk by a mine in the
English channel today, and some of her
crew may have been lost, according to
cable advices to the local Cunard Of
ficials. The Alaunia was proceeding to
London from Falmouth, where on
Tuesday,the officials said, she landed
all of her 243 passengers, including Fl
Americans, who sailed on her from
New York. Captain H. M. Benson and
the majority of the crew of $50 were
saved. according to the advices, but
some of them were reported missing.
Definite word was received Wednes-
day, it was announced, of the landing
of the passengers at Falmouth, the day
before, removing all doubt as to their
safety. Moreover no bookings, it was
stated. were made for London by the
steamer. and all passengers were told
that they would have to complete their
journey from Falmouth to London by
rail.
The cablegram telling of the vessels
loss read:
albania struck mine in English
channel this morning. Sunk during the
forenoon. Benson and majority of crew
saved. Several missing"
The Alaupia, one of the newer YES

here on the day the German submarine
U-53 arrived at Newport, and must
have passed Nantucket at about the
same time the U-53 the next morning
began her operations in that vicinity
against British shipping. Incidentally
the Cunarder was armed for defense
against submarines.

Field Marshal Won kluck and his
army took an important part in the
German advance toward Paris in Sep
TENDER, 1914 His advance halted about
30 miles from the French capital and
his force, with the res, of the German
army, was checked and driven back In
the battle of the Marine.
Field Marshal Won Kluck was born
in Muenster, Germany, May 20. 1S46.
and entered the German army as Sec
ond lieutenant in 1865. At the outbreak
of the war he was in command of the
army corps at Koenigsburg. He fought
in the war with Austria in 1856 and in
the Franco-Prussian war in 1870.
He is said to have received his wound
in March, 1915, by recklessly exposing
himself after a stormy interview with
Emperor William. Last August it was
reported he was soon to take command
on the eastern front. His son. Lieut..
Egon Won Kluck, was reported killed
at Middelekirke in 1915.
