BOL0 PASHA
WAS IN PAY
OF COUNTvON
BERNSTORFF
German Spy, Held in Paris
by French Government,
Was Agent of Ambassador
Here.
BANK AGENT TELLS

NEW YORK, Oct. 4-Evidence In
dicating that German funds held by
New York banks for the Deutsche
bank Of Berlin and which were en-
ployed to pay Bolo Pasha, German
spy and peace propagandist, were
placed at the disposal Of Count Won
Bernstorff by wireless messages from
the German foreign office, was OBJ
tanned today by assistant attorney
general Merton e. Lewis.
This evidence conclusively proves,
according to the attorney general,
that Count Won Bernstorff had a d.
rect hand In directing the activities Of
Bolo Pasha, who is now under arrest
in Paris.
1t was obtained he said, from Hugo
Schmidt. agent here Of the Deutsche
bank, whom he examined
WASHINGTON, Oct. State de-
partment officials admitted today they
had evidence that Count Won Bern
storff, the former German ambassador
here, directed expenditure of the
funds paid to Bolo Pasha, but declined
to reveal their evidence. although they
may do so after the French govern
ment finishes with Bolo's case.

JOHNSON SEES
NO CHANCE OF
GAS FAMINE
Manager of Utility Will Not
Discontinue Serving Ma
tural Supply.

The Richmond Light, Heat & Power
Company will not follow the example
Of gas companies Of many other Indi-
ana cities and discontinue serving
natural gas to its patrons after No
vember !. N. H. Johnson, general man
ager Of the company, said Thursday.
Utilities In six Indiana towns, No
blesville, Upton, Marion, Anderson,
Alexandria, Elwood, anticipating a
scarcity of natural gas this winter,
have decided to manufacture artificial
gas, and discontinue serving natural
gas so that they will be sure Of serv-
ing consumers with gas.
The Richmond company will not
discontinue serving natural gas until
it is forced to by the failure of the
natural gas supply, according to Mr..
Johnson. 1t is not believed however,
that the supply will fail.
Rate Would Double
The present gas rate of from 40 to
so cents will be more than doubled in
the event it is necessary to use arti-
fetal gas, it is believed. The rate
would be Axed by the state public SER
vice commission.
Although the domestic demand for
gas will be much greater this year.
due to the advanced prices of coal,
the industries will not be given sup
ply Of natural gas until the domestic
demand has been taken care OF.
According to Johnson, the supply of
natural gas here will be as large, II
not larger, this winter than it was
last The $500 consumers are ad-
vised, however, to have fuel on hand
in case Of some unforeseen accident
causing a scarcity of gas.
In this event the plant for manufac-
turing artificial gas would be started,
so that consumers would have gas
with which to cook. Artificial gas
cannot be used for heating purposes,
however.
See Good Supply
Mr.. Johnson has held several con-
ferences with officials of the Logan
Natural Gas and Fuel Company, which
serves the Richmond company, and
the officials said that every indica-
tion pointed to a good supply of nat
ural gas this winter, despite the fact
the domestic demand would be great
er. The gas used here is piped through
from West Virginia fields and new
wells have been dug and are in readi-
ness, johnson said. The pines into
Richmond go through Dayton first

NICHOLSON TO
VISIT CAMP

Timothy Nicholson, one Of the most
widely known Quakers in the United
States, left Richmond Thursday for
Louisville, KY, where he will confer
with young Friends in the national
army training camp.
Paul Furnas, of Indianapolis, repre-
senting the Western Yearly Meeting OF
Friends, and who is of military age un-
der the selective service act, and
Aaron Napier. of Amboy, Ind, who rep
resents the Indiana Yearly Meeting of
Friends, accompanied Mr.. Nicholson.
Most Friends of conscription age,
will refuse. it Is believed, to accept any
duties whatever with the military
forces, even though they are not re.
quired to bear arms.
Mr. Nicholson, Mr. Furnas and Mr.
Napier will also confer with officers
in the camp relative to the status OF
Quakers already there, and who are
awaiting the governments decision as
to their final disposition. The govern
ment has not announced whether the
Friends reconstruction units, which are
separate from the military forces and
the Red Cross society, will be offic
tally recognized

LIBERTY DRIVE
IN FULL SWING

Wayne county's Liberty Loan drive
is now in full swing, with indications
pointing to Its success, though the COM
mittee in charge is very desirous of
pointing out the need for all citizens
to give their assistance.
Today all Richmond banks had many
inquiries relative to the present issue
Of Liberty Loan bonds and there were
numerous applications made for the
securities. The interest rate is per-
cent per annum, an increased return
Of one-half Of one percent over the
original issue.
The attractiveness of the invest
ment, therefore. must be admitted, for
1t compares with any non-taxable Sc
curity being offered and in addition
has element Of highest security, being
a government obligation.
The committee wants 1t understood
that the investor of small means Is
especially urged to do his part. In no
other way perhaps, may thousands Of
persons contribute to the government
cause in the present war.
These persons are unable to give
outright sums of money for various
charity features of the war, but in pur-
chasing Liberty Bond they simply
are securing their savings in the best
manner possible and are realizing a re-
turn thereon.
Liberty Bonds may be obtained In
denominations as small as $50 and
the banks will be glad to enter the
applications of any persons who call.
There are also denominations in larger
sums which may be secured

BRITISH FRONT IN FRANCE AND
BELGIUM, Oct. 4.-(By Associated
Press s.)-Field Marshal Haig's forces
in the offensive begun to the east Of
Ypres this morning in some places
have penetrated the German lines to
e depth Of one mile and have over-run
the crest Of the -Gheiu-
velt ridge at an early time this morn
ing the Germans were surrendering by
the hundreds
The British already have penetrat-
ed well beyond the hamlet of Broad
seinde In which lies the cross roads
formed by the highways between Zon-
nebeke and Moorsled and Passchen-
daele and Beclair. Further to the
south, Cameron Covert, where there
had been much hard fighting, was left
well In the rear.
Today's battle was along strong
holds which comprised the crucially
important system Of German defenses
along the Passchendale-Ghel
ridge.
Striking again on a wide front east
Of Ypres, the British this morning be-
gan another drive at the German line
In Flanders. Field Marshal Haig, in
his early report announced that salts
factory prgress was being made.
Already stream of German prison.
ers is being sent to the British rear.
The renewal of the Flanders drive
comes after an eight-day interval On
Wednesday Of last week the British
swept forward over ground on both
sides OF the Ypres-Menin road. advanc-
ing from half mile to a mile at yari-
GUS points along the line.
Fighting is Heaviest
Some of the heaviest fighting In the
war on the western front followed, the
Germans making assaults after as
| saults in desperate attempts to regain
the valuable high ground they had lost.
Almost every inch of 1t, however, was
held intact by the British who mean
time were preparing for the next for
| ward push.
With today's renewal Of the drive,
the battle Of Flanders is growing more
and more to resemble last years battle
OF the Somme, which was followed by
the memorable Hindenburg strategic
retreat The same general tactics now
| being pursued, of persistent driving at
the same points in the line, are evi-
IDENTIFY expected by the British to
| achieve similar result.
This time. however, the ground
| which would have to be abandoned
| would be far more valuable to the en-
tente and its loss a correspondingly
heavy blow to the Germans, for the
| Germans held Belgium coats line with
its submarine and aerial bases, is at
stake, together with the great manu-.
featuring city of Lille and wide
stretches Of territory In Northern
| France and Flanders.
The French fighting front has been
| comparatively calm except for intense
| artillery activity northeast Of Verdun.
