TRAITOR TO REPUBLIC
ORDERED TO BE EXECUTED
PARIS. Feb. 18.—Bolo Pasha, on
trial before a court-martial In Paris on
a charge of treason in having con
ducted a German propaganda, has been
found guilty and sentenced to death.
It la announced that the decree of exe
cution will be carried out at an early
date.
During the trial, which started In
Paris February 4, Bolo Pasha protested
that he was no traitor, but if found to
be one would be willing to die. Dur
ing the early portion of the trial Bolo
Pasha assumed a jovial air, but during
the closing days he appeared not to be
so confident, as evidence was submit
ted to show that he had received from
German sources large sums of money
for propaganda. The United States was
Instrumental in bringing Bolo Pasha to
trial. Former Premier Cailleaux of
France Is also implicated in Bolo
Pasha's propaganda, and doubtless will
be tried shortly.
