to death.
The court martial which condemn

for only Is minutes,
Darius Porchere, an accountant,
who was a co-defendant, was sent
enced to three years Imprisonment.
Filippo Cavallinie, another code
PENDANT, who is under arrest in Italy,
was sentenced to death, although he
Ia not within the courts jurisdiction.
The speedy return Of the court mar
tial came almost as a greater surprise
to the crowds in the courtroom await
ing the verdict than the actual sent
ence of death itself, which had been
predicted from the outset.
Bolo took the announcement with
apparent calm, but Porchere, who had
sat throughout the trial stolid and
stupid in appearance, was visibly
moved, though whether at his W es-
cape from his patrons fate or at the
sentence imposed upon Bolo, vas not
easy to determine.
The crowd made no demonstration,
hut filed noisily from the court room
discussing the verdict.
Paul Bolo Pasha's court martial
was one Of the first Of the so-called
cases of Intelligence with the enc.

GERMANY REVIEWS
WAR UPON RUSSIA
ACCORDING TO REPORTS FROM
HOLLAND, KAISER WILL BE.
GIN ANOTHER OFFENSIVE.
PETROGRAD is ALLEGED GOAL
Failure Of Russia, Says Wilhelm, Az
tomatically Ends Armistice and
Operations Will Be Resumed
For Protection Of Ukraine.

London.-Germany has resolved to
renew military activities against
Northern Russia. This decision Is
said to have been reached at a con-
ference at imperial headquarters, spe-
cial dispatches from Holland say. The
conference was attended by Emperor
William, Chancellor Won Hertling,
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, Gen.
Won Ludendorff, Foreign Secretary
Won Kuehlmann and Others.
The mo war, but no peace" plan
Of Leon Trotzky, Bolsheviki foreign
minister, was returned at the confer
ence, according to the Amsterdam
correspondent of the Daily Express,
and as TrotZky does not want peace,
he will get war. Invasion of Great
Russia, it is added, will continue at
any rate until P%etrograd is occupied
by German troops.
A dispatch to the Daily News from
Rotterdam says that the Germans
take the view that Trotzky's decla-
ration, though it did not end the war,
automatically ended the armistice.
| (The armistice expired Feb. 14.) The
Germans now consider that they have
q free hand and mean To use the op-
lortunity.
This, according to the correspond
ent, does not mean necessarily that
the Germans will Immediately try to
reach Petrograd, but more probably
that they will support the Ukraine BY
force OF arms. The Germans, he says,
are carrying out an active propagan'
da In the Ukraine for the purpose Of
suggesting to the rada that the new
state is endangered BY the Bolsheviki
