IJcrno. A rcmnrknblo spying font
wns executed by a Swiss citizen named
Luglnbuhl. IIo succeeded In getting
paid from both sides, tho French ns
well na tho Germans, receiving profit
able favors from both, nnd finally
landed In tho meshes of Swiss Inw.
Luglnbuhl was one of twonty-ono de
fendants In a celebrated esplonngo
case just concluded In n local court.
With one exception all wcro found
guilty, Including Luglnbuhl. Sentence
was deferred.
Luglnbuhl was anxious to buy wool
waste In France. IIo wanted to sell
It In Germany where ho could get nn
Immense price for It. To got tho wool
out of Franco Luglnbuhl had to obtain
permission from the French authori
ties. He got Into touch with French
agents nnd spies doing business In
Switzerland, who nfterwnrd were Ills
codefendants In tho trial, and upon bis
promise tlmt ho would mulco n trip
Into Germany, find out certain things
tlio French spies wore anxious to know
nnd report back, ho would obtain per
mission to tako tho wool out of France,
To sell tho wool In Germany Lugln-

buhl mndo his trip Into the kaiser's
domain, as promised, but he did more
than ho hnd promised. IIo told Ger
man ofllclnls all about tho deal lie had
made with the French spies, whero
tipon tho Germans were kind enough
to write a roport which Luglnbuhl took
hack to Switzerland nnd banded over
to his French friends, who paid him
$800 for It. Luglnbuhl nt tlmt time
already had In his pocket tho band-some-
profit ho had made on tho milo
of French wool In Germany. What
tho Germans had paid him for double
crossing the French was not dlHosed
during tho trial.
It took eight days to try the case.
Mourgeot, n French officer, was the
principal defendant In absentia. IIo
hnd escaped beforo ho could bo arrest
ed. Tho Judge In pronouncing tho ver
dict of guilty said Mourgcot had
broken tho word of honor given by
nn officer when bo escaped from a hos
pital. IIo wns found jpitlty of hav
ing organized the French spy system
In Switzerland, no hired German de
serters to tell him all they knew, All
this was, however, only a minor of
fense, according to Swiss law.
Had Many Activities.
nis principal crime wus treason
committed against the Swiss republic.
IIo observed tho movement of Swiss
troops near the French border nnd
kept tho F.onch army command post
ed nbout them. lie hired men to
watch the transportation of cattle. Ho
tried to poison cattle In railroad trains
by putting poison In the cars, no or
ganized n conspiracy to foment n strike
In the aluminum works nt Ghtppls,
which worn sending rcoods to Germany,
nnd tried to destroy the electrical plnnt
nt Wnidshut. .!
Three of his tools wero French
men, who nlso succeeded In eluding
the Swiss lnw. It wns discovered at
tho trial that these men made It Uiclr
business to buy factories that were
selling to Gormnny. They bought the
fnctorles with French money nnd made
an Immenso profit for themselves by
the transaction.
The most prominent of tho Swiss de
fendants was Dr. Brnestlcln, n lnwyer.
Revelations disclosing bis activities
created a sensation In nil Switzer
land. The court condemned him se
verely. Among the rther defendants
wero n Swiss army sergeant and nn
nrmy policeman. Both wero found
guilty of tnklng French money for
furnishing Information nbout nrmy
movements.
The whole of Switzerland seems to
bo a hotbed of spies Espionage trials
are going on almost continuously In
mnny of the cities. Germnns, Aus-
trlnns nnd Italians arc Implicated ns
well ns tho Swiss themselves". The
public Is usually excluded from these
trlnls because Switzerland wants to
avoid as much as posslblo being drawn
Into tho ramifications of -spydom
which might jeopardize tho neutrality
of the republic.

quires tho greatest economy in tho
feeding of grain to llvft stock. IlUmnn

should bo required to live on half ra

bo fed, nnd well fed, In order to main
tain sufficient supplies of dairy prod
ucts for our own armies nnd the nrrolos
of our allies, and still have enough for
our civilian population. In order to
feed tho dairy herds well, with the min
imum of grain, substitutes must be fur
nished for at lenst part of tho grain-
