 Hearst.

PARIS, Feb. 1S.-The sentence of death for Bolo Pasha has caused many of his former friends to take to cover During the finish of his trial many new facts about his life were brought out.
 NJ. Panon, an artist, testifying at the treason trial of Bolo Pasha, said that he had known Bolo since he was 10 years old. He became Bolo's partner in various undertakings at MarSeiles, where he lost his for tune of 100000 francs when Bolo disappeared with Panon's wife, leav- ing Panon liable for debts aggregat- ing 50,000 francs.
 Bolo, he swore. sent him to New York in March, 1917 to obtain from the Amsick bank and Adolph Pa venstadt a statement of Bolo's ac- count from May, 1914, to February, 1917. Panon said he was asked by the prisoner to send Bolo this mes- sage
 We send your account from the first transfer in May, 1914, of $1,600,- 900 or $1,700,000 to the transfers of February, 1916, to the Federal Bank of Canada for the creation of a Cuban bank"
 Pavenstedt told him, Panlon said, that Bolo's request for the cable gram was impossible and warned Panon against Bolo.
 Blind Woman Testifies
 The court room became silent, as Mime. Panon was led to the stand. She is an instructor in elocution. Mme Panon described how her in- fatuation for Bolo had ruined her life, how brutal Bolo had treated her and how she had won her husbands pardon. President Voyer asked the witness if she recognized Bolo. She replied: q am blind I cannot see him nor you"
 Witnesses testified regarding Bo- los visit to the United States in l916 Madame Buzenet told of at tending dinner in New York in company with French captain, Yer dier, and Adolph Pavenstedt, former head of the Amsinck Bank, and Bo- To Pasha.
 Lieut.. Provost, of the French cen sorship department, testified that ar ticles praising William Randolph Hearst had been taken to Senator Humbert's paper, Le Journale, in which Bolo Pasha had an interest, ] by Charles F. Berteill, the head of the Paris bureau of the Information. ! al News Service, who accompanied Bolo to America and introduced him to MT. Hearst.
 The lieutenant said his attention had first been called to Bolo Pasha by a eulogy of MT. Hearst printed in La Victore, which also described Bolo Pasha's relations with the press i of America.
 Mir. Bertilli recounted Bolo Pasha's trip to New York. He said Boio had met MT. Hearst only socially at dinner at 'Sherry's Place. for which Bertelli sent out invitations. but for which Bolo paid. The guests included Mr. and Mrs. Gerard, Mir. and Mrs. Hearst, Adolph Pavenstedt and Jules Bois. Bertell said that Bolo spoke like a true patriot and that Mir Hearst thought he was do- ing France honor by receiving Bolo. whom he believed was one of the distinguished citizens of France. The witness was cross-examined by Pres ident Voyer.
 A Weeping Match The finel witness for the state was Mime. Bolo Soumaille. the de- fendant's first wife. She became so faint while testifying that the win dows of the court room were opened and the judge broke precedent by allowing men to wear hats.
 Bolo Pasha was greatly affected by his first wife's testimony. Tears wellen into his eyes and he cried openly as his second wife, Mime. Bolo, appeared on the stand in his behalf. The witnesses denied stories pub lished in French newspapers alleg- | ing that Bolo Pasha had dissipated her fortune. He not only made plen- ty of money to support himself. she declared. but augmented her fortune. The defendant wept harder than ev- CT as his wife, who apparently is his sole remaining friend. testified of ef- forts he made toward the rehabili- tation of his estate.
