Bishop Anderson at Home
From Europe.

Bishop William +. Anderson,
of the NJ. f. Church, has just
returned from protracted tour
Of Europe and brings back most
encouraging word from our
American soldiers in France.
From a recent address in
Trinity NJ. f, Church, Evans
Vile, Ind. which was made be-

the following extracts:
"We are in France in three
capacities" he said. First
we are there az fighters. Then
we are there as world patriots.
Thirdly, we are there i'll phil

FAMOUS LETTER WAS WRITTEN TO

Peace Offerings Were Sent in Emperor Charles Docu-

PROMISED TO AID
 ALSACE-LORRAINE
Complaint Made By Mem bers of Imperial House of
 Austria by Archduke.

Amsterdam, April 25-The Berlin Tageblatt prints the following dis patch from Vienna:
 ''The members of the imperial house of Austria met at the arch dukes palace and decided through him to point out to the emperor the prejudicial consequences which the activities of members of the house of Bourbon de Parma residing abroad might have for the interest of the house of Hapsburg-Lorraine.
 The complaint of the members of the imperial house evidently has ref erence to the case of Prince Sixtus of Bourbon de Parma, brother of the Austrian empress, who was Princess Zita of Bourbon de Parma.
 It was to Prince Sixtus, an officer in the Belgian arfhy, that Emperor Charles wrote his famous letter of March 31, 1917 in which he made peace suggestions for unofficial sub mission to France and England and, as revealed by the text made public by the French government early this month, alluded to Frances just claims regarding Alsace-Lorraine," 1" which he promised to support.
 The complications which followed the publication of this letter included the issuance of numerous Austrian statements in explanation and denials to heal Germany's injured feelings and the resignation of Count Czernin the Austro- Hungarian foreign minis ter, and his succession by Baron Bur- ian, a diplomat said to be thoroughly acceptable to Germany.

 With them as with myself" he said, hostility to the present con- scription proposal is induced, I need scarcely say, not by any desire to weaken in any way the arm of Eng land or her allies in the vigorous pros secution of the war, but by the con- viction that the way to attain the re- sule we all want to see is to give Ire land at once her long overdue parlia- ment which then would be in posi- ton to throw Ireland's full strength into the struggle for freedom"

CLEVER POLICE OFFICIAL WILL
 LAND NEW BERTH

New York, April 25-Police In- spector Thomas J. Tunney, who as commander of the bomb and neu- trality'' squad, solved many sensa- tional German plots and brought numerous offenders to justice, has been taken over'' by the war depart ment. He was today granted six months leave of absence beginning May l, when he will report to Wash ington. It is understood that he may be placed in charge of a special di- vision of secret service operatives covering eastern states.
 Tunney was instrumental in clear ing up the mystery of the bomb ex- plosion in the capitol in Washington three years ago, for which Frank Holt, assailant of J. P. Morgan, was responsible. He is credited with ef- fecting the arrest of Franz Rintelen, Paul Koenig and other German plot ters, and gathering the evidence against Emma Goldman and Alexar- der Berkman.
