Fortunately she was not admitted, but, so far, no suspicion attached to her presence In Rome, and she was allowed the same facilities for fascinating Allied offtc- CTS and worming out of them the se- crets for which the Germans were paying so much.
 Among the many admirers of the fair American was a htghly-p placed officer Of the British Army, and, as the guest of this officer, Miss Charl- ton made a number of trips to Brit ish headquarters or the Piave. By that time she had been well schooled in the art of using her eyes, and she took back to her ern nployers Q wealth of information regarding the dtspos1- ton of the British troops on the Italian front.
 Fortunately for the Allies, she did not discover that on the day after her last visit to the British headouar- ters the dispositions of the troops were completely altered by General Dfaz, and the faith of the Austrians in this woman is justified by the fact that they made their plans for the

 Miss Charlton was of great assist ance to her employers in supplying information to submarine comman- ders operating in the Mediterranean There is only too much reason to be- Heve that she knew with the most amazing accuracy the movements of British transports in this region, and was able to advise the enemy so that measures were taken, a fact that ac- counts for the unprecedented access of the submarines in the Mediteran- can.
 Of her work In this direction her German employers say-"It cannot be doubted that our Secret Service was most efficient in the Italian zone We obtained of the disposition and projected movements of our enemies more accurate information than we had with regard to any other region and nowhere were our submarines more successful against enemy trans ports than in the Mediterranean That is due very largely to the efficiency of our agent, the American, Mss Charlton.
 It was this entirely unsolicited tes- timonial to the worth of Miss Charl- ton as a spy that led to her undoing How 1t came to be sent to the Allies is a matter that cannot be disclos- ed at the moment, because the life of a man still in Berlin might Dav the penalty if the enemy knew; but the evidence since anassed against this woman is of the most convincing character indeed, and, had she elect ed to take her trial, she could hard ly have escaped.

s3.13 FOR AUGUST MILK.

New York League milk for August has been sold for $3.13, or about 2-3 cents per quart. This price is for 3 per cent. milk at the 200 mile zone with the usual differentials for freight and butterfat. The August price is 12 cents a hundred more than was paid producers for July milk. It was determined by the price agreement now in force between pro- ducers and dealers which takes both market conditions and cost of pro- duction into consideration.
 The average market price of butter for the thirty days ending with July goth was $5,1es. The average market price of cheese for the same period together with the average price of skim milk and when Is added thirty six cents to allow for costs of pro- duction. The result is the August Price,

THE WOUNDED PREMIER

As had been feared, the condition
of NJ. Clemenceau, the French prem
Ter, who was attacked by an anar-
chist this week in front Of his resi-
dence in Paris. is more serious than
the first dispatches stated. One OF
the bullets from the world-be as
sassin's pistol has lodged in the
lungs, and the surgeons hesitate to
operate owing to the condition Of the
French statesman. Indeed, fears for
his life are expressed. In the mean
time dispatches state that his tenn
perature is rising.
1t may prove a case similar to that
of the late President James A. Gar
field. For several weeks il was sup
posed that our martyre executive
would recover. Two months later,
however, pyaemia developed and the
sufferer succumbed.
The shooting Of Premier C!emen-
ceau is interpreted by the British
press as an evidence of TIE outcrop-
ping of Bolshevism, throughout the
world. Newspapers, fearing ian cpl
demic of assassinations, suggest
that international action should be
undertaken to deal with the anar-
chists.
In this connection it may be stated
that. Dr.. Friedrich Adler, who assas-
snated Premier Stuerg!;h At Vienna
in 1916, has been proclaimed Presi-
dent of the German-Austrian republic
by the defense troops outside the
town kali.

From the rurlicus Of Petrograd
has arisen a menace called Bolshc-
riSm. The name had its origin n
the separation Of the Ru>sis Social
Democratic Labor Party into fac
tons at its convention in 1903. The
Bolshcviki, or members Of the ma
jority, were radical Socialists. where
as the Menshevili, or members of
the minority, were moderate Social
lists. But the Bolshev!ki. needless
to reiterate here, have overstcpDcd
the bounds even Of Socialism as il IS
ordinarily understood. if il is under
stood by Socialists even. And the
world fully understands Bolsehvism
to mean license, wantonness and
