HIGH OFFICER IS
 SHOT AS TRAITOR

New York, Sept 25.-some of the means used to prevent the reinforce ment of the French at the battle of Mons were told today to her friends in New York by Miss Eva Gay, of Norwood, Mass. a former Mount Hol- yoke college girl. who had been teach ing in Spain and returned from Eng land Wednesday on the Olympic.
 Miss Gay said she had been told by the English friends who had relaL- lives connected with the British war office that General Joffre. in response to the request of General French for endorsements to extricate him from his dangerous position, entrusted or ders for theN dispatch of such rein forcements to a. certain high French official. When the execution of these orders was delayed an investigation was begun. It was known that the French officer had a German wife. His home in Paris was searched and therein were found military decu- ments of a reasonable nature. The officer, was immediately courtn1artia1- ed, convicted and shot.
 Miss Gay, said that she had been told that the English authorities had refused to permit publication of the affair for the fear of it's effect on the morals of the English troops.
