OTHERS SURELY
 TO FOLLOW SPY TO vINCENNES

Paris, April 11-Bolo Pasha, con- demned to death for treason but granted reprieve of indefinite dura- tion on his plea that he had impor- tant revelations to make to the mili- tary judicial authorities, entertains no doubt as to what his ultimate fate will be, according to the Petit Jour- nal today It quotes him as saying on Monday:
 T will go to vincennes, but others will surely follow"
 It is at Vincennes that French military executions take place.
 Bolo is continuing his revelations" but the utmost silence is preserved in official circles as to their trend. He will be heard again today, which is expected to conclude the hearings.
 The newspaper La Victore does not take the view that the prisoners exc cution is imminent. Whatever inn portance that may be attached to Bolos eleventh hour confession, it says, one result is certain, which is that several days will elapse before his execution, as the things he re- veals will have to be investigated and corroborated or disproved, land the willy Bolo has doubtless gained an indefinite postponement."

IMPORTANT LAW
 POINT BEFORE
 SUPREME COURT

May driver of pleasure automo- bile, bearing no public service mark CTS, accept a passenger from @ public stand, and accept pay for carrying him short distance? This question was argued before the Supreme Court of Errors here today in a New Haven case, the State of Connecticut against Philip Skifrin, on the defendants ap- peal from a conviction in the Court of Common Pleas in New Haven.
 The contention of the defendant is there was no violation of the law in that there was no solicitation. The attorney for the state contended the carrying of the passenger came with in the meaning of the statute which requires public service markers on vehicles used for carrying passengers for hire.
 Skifrin's automobile was parked on a public stand, deputy motor vehicle inspector asked him to take him to the railroad station, and paid half dollar for the service. Skifrin's ar rest and conviction followed. The point before the court is an interpre- tation of the statute, and whether there was error in the charge to the jury.
