He added that he had lold Captain von Papen, military at Iache, and Captain K. Boy-ed, naval at tache of the German embassy, of his plans, but said that both men told him not to Interfere with steamers sailing trom American ports or American am nunition plants. Two Arralgned.

Fay and Scholz were arresteq by New York and New Jersey detectives near Grantwood, N. J., | \ate yesterday while the two men were sxperimenting with explosives. Paul Daeche of Jersey City, who was arrested at his home early today, also was arralgned with Fay and Schols.

Police an- nounced that Fay had made a complete confession of his activities and later the prisoner gave out & statement to the newspapers. In that he said: “My omly objective when I cameto this country was to Interfers with the enor- mous shipments of artillery ammunition | to the allles. Knowing that any ordinary damage that may be done to & factory | may be repaired within a few hours, I de- clded it was useless to bother with am- munition plants.

In this way I ‘was able to overcome the effect of damp- neas or water on the wires. 1 applied to the colonel of my regiment, and he dé- clded to give me a chance. He put me in touch with the secret service office, and one of the agents arranged for my passage to the United States. 1 came here on the steamship Rotterdam, mrriv- ing, 1 belleve, on April £ last. 1 hd no trouble In getting into the country.” Fay sald tiat he and Scholz had con- ducted & large number of experiments with his mine device along the Hudson river, but declared that Daeche was In no way implicated. The man said that although Fay did not appear to be & Ger- man name, Robert Fay was his correct name, and that he was listed under that name in his regiment. Fay said he was well supplied with money when he ar- rived here and therefore was able to act on his own. responsibility. * DEATH RECORD.

Nowhere, he sald, have they advanced beyond a few undefended points of no military value close to the frontier. An offensive movement by the allles seems imminent. The Greeks seem to be profoundly impressed by the rapidity and success of the French movement. French and Serbs Win Victory.

This treatment | has restored over 400,000 men and| women who were addicted to liquor and drugs; among the number are | over 200,000 physicians. It is the PIONEER in this work and has many imitators, but no rivals or competitors as far as RESULTS are concerned. | During the THIRD OF A CEN-! TURY that this treatment has boon{ continuously and successfully ad- ministered, nearly two thousand ims | itation, or alleged “cure” concerns have started out as our competitors; today scarcely a dozen survive. Some of them so closely imitate our claimi literature, etc., to such an extent, to indicafe a pre-determined intent to deceive. They appear almost under every conceivable name, fool the people for a little while and pass on into oblivion, forgotten by the public, but not by the unfortunates whom they! deluded and duped into trying their | methods. The one regrettable fea- ture is that they should be able to decelve any through false preten- slons, or with their absurd and pre- posterous claims, for in many cases they drive all hope and confidence out of the lives of those whom they have thus misled. If you need to take treatment for the Liquor and Drug addiction, {nves- tigate THE KEBEL!
