With the help of false papers supplied by French journalists, he crossed into Austria before returning to France, publishing an account of his exploits in a book. Comment S'Est Evade Le Capitaine Lux, De La Forteresse Allemande De Glatz. Illustration for Le Petit Parisien (Supplement Litteraire Illustre), 14 January 1912.
