First Irish COACHING COMPANY

! In 1915, an Italian, named Bianconi,
| started the first coaching company in
ireland, running long cars over vari-
GUS regular routes. Long cars soon
became the safest and most reliable
means of travelling over ireland, and
Bianconi turned rich and prosperous.
Writing in or about 1S42, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hall, who have written much of Ire
land, tell us that persons of the high
est responsibility" used the long cars
for travelling. At this time, although
these cars passed through 128 towns,
they had not made their way into the
north of Ireland. The cars varied con-
siderably in size, requiring from one to
four horses. The fare, even over the
rockiest roads in the West, was two
pence farthing mile. The Halls care
fully explain that passengers We're pro-
vided with "dry and comfortable horse
hair cushions and aprons" and that, in
wet weather, the long cars never jour.
neyed more than two stages without
changing the cushions.

Special Cable to The Sunday Star and
New York Sun.
LONDON, April 13.-The publication
Of the letter written by the Emperor
Charles of Austria to his brother-in- law,
Prince Sixtus de Bourbon, stating ex-
plicitly that he would support by every
MEANS by using all my personal infiu-
ence with my allies" the just claims of
the French to Alsace and Lorraine. is
regarded here as the most dramatic dis
closure yet made in the war, at almost
the crisis of the great war, and it has
created a tremendous sensation in Lon
don.
1t is believed probable that it was the
knowledge in high German circles of
plains the disturbance caused in Ger
many by the controversy when Czernin
inspired the fury of the German press
1t is now revealed who was the per-
son of higher rank than my own" to
whom Czernin alluded in his letter.
The latest statement issued results
undoubtedly from extreme pressure
brought by Germany. 1t is noted that
pletely false that he recognized that
France had any just claim for the re-
acquisition of Alsace and Lorraine.
The conclusion in diplomatic circles
here is that the Emperor Charles acted
impulsively and that he acted without
consulting the kaiser. 1t is assumed
that he was prompted to act because of
internal conditions in his empire The
remarkable affair is indicative, diplo-
mats consider, Of the first real trace of
a split in the dual alliance. This seems
positive. in spite of the self-satistied
