Sends Over 10000, 900 Francs
to Holland and Switzerland
for Safer Keeping.
SEIZURE IS EXPECTED.
Action Taken Just Before An
nouncing Refusal to Pay

PARIS, Aug. 4 ASSOCIATED Press.
German banks within the last
forty eight hours have transferred to
Holland and Switzerland between so,
600, 600 and 10000 600 French francs
which had been on deposit in Ameri
can and other foreign banks in Paris,
the Associated Press learned this
afternoon.
The money was hurriedly with
drawn, it is understood, in anticipa-
tion of its being seized by the French
Government, as part of the penalties
to be imposed upon Germany for her
refusal to pay the G2, 900, 900 install
ment due for private debts contracted
efore the war with Frcnchmen.
M 7hese penalties are to become eff.
fective, beginning at noon tomorrow,
and although their exact nature has
been carefully guarded by the Govern
F6ient, i! has been assumed that all
German bank deposits in France, AL
SAGE Lorraine, and possibly in oCcu-
pied territory, would be confiscated to
meet this payment.
1t is emphasized in official quarters
that the funds on deposit in Paris were
sufficient to pay more than half of the
August debt instalment
The Paris deposits. it was learned,
were withdrawn by telegraph and tclc-

reply to the German Government on
this question was received in Berlin.
A very small percentage of the dc.
posits of German banks has been kept
, with French institutions in Paris.
This money has been entirely with
drawn. In the casae Of American and
other foreign banks, the Germans
have left nominal sums to meet day
today transactions. These foreign
banks were surprised when the orders
came to transfer the cash to Dutch
and Swiss banks, but there was moth
ing for them to do but to obey the re
quest of their German clients.
Reports have also reached Paris
banking circles that the Germans had
also withdrawn large sums from the
banks in the occupied districts OF
Germany and from Alsace- Lorraine.

WITHOUT CLUE IN
POISON MYSTERY
Not One Fact Is Uncovered
Leading to Solution of
Six Deaths.
STILL SEEKING MOTIVE
EXterminator Men Questioned
Attempt TO Trace Pur-
chaser of Arsenic.

While investigators under Assistant
District Attorney Morgan A. Jones
were visiting drug stores and farm
supply houses in an effort to trace the
six patrons of the Shelburn Restau-
rant, and made 100 others i'll, District
Attorney Banton to-day summoned
before him three employees OF the
Bliss EXterminator Company, No. 900
Eighth Avenue, who had charge OF
cleaning the restaurant the last time
it was visited, July 3.
These men, according to George u.
Medalie, who accompanied them as
counsel for the company, told Mr..
Banton they had used no arsenic In
cleaning the restaurant.
They were in the place from to 6
y. NJ, they said. and when they de-
parted left nothing behind OF q
poisonous nature.
Mr.. Banton later said that not a
single fact had been uncovered giving
hope for a solution OF the poisoning,
Notwithstanding his staff, the police

Another unreported victim OF the

his condition was not serious.
According to District Attorney Ban
ton, his process Of elimination has led
him nowhere. Nothing has been
learned through a systematic examin-
alton of employees and former EN-
ployees OF the restaurant TO show any
motive strong enough to prompt sucn
a wholesale attempt on life.
1t is now suggested that the perpe
traitor may have been ignorant Of the
deadly effects of the arsenic and put
it in the dough for the purpose OF
making many persons i'll and injurins
