FHAaT MME, GAILLAUX
[HAILL COURT BY TALE
OF LOVE ILOST TO RIVAL
Special Cable to The Georgian.
PARIS, July 23—Mme. Gueydan,
divorced wife of Joseph Caillaux, this
afternoon suddenly became the cen
tral filgure and the storm center in
the trial of Mme, Henriette Calllaux
for the murder of Gaston Calmette,
editor of Le Figaro.
The courtroom where the wife of
the former French Premier and Min
ister of Finance is on trial became a
theater in real life with scenes so in
tensely dramatic that the spectators
were swept away by them.
When Mme. Gueydan took the wit
ness stand she faced the woman who
had succeeded her in the heart of
Caillaux and the incidents which fol
lowed were replete with sensational
thrills,
Mme, Gueydan told the complete
story of her life, beginning with her
girlhood and continuing down to the
present day. Her story was told with
graphic simplicity, but at times the
woman was carried away with emo
tion and anger and then she leaned
forward across the rail of the witness
stand with eyes aflame with rage.
Mme, Gueydan pictured the story
of her courtship with M. Caillaux,
who was then a struggling figure in
the world of finance and politicg. She
told of her marriage and her married
life. Her recital pictured happy do
mesticity, with the wife encouraging
and advising her husband.
Her Happiness Blighted.
Then Mme. Caillaux, then the wife
of M, Claretie, entered upon the
scene. The happiness of her married
life then was blighted, for Caillaux
fell in love with the beautiful and
sprightly Mme. Claretie.
When Mme. Gueydan reached the
part of her tale relating to Caillaux’s
divorce from her the words tumbled
from her lips in incoherent haste at
times and her voice, rose to a
scream. ‘She glared into the hard,
cold eyes of the defendant or leaned‘
from the witness chair as though she
were about to spring at Judge Louis
Albanel, the president of the Assizel
Court, 1
The woman's words plerced the
tense stillness; her fists were clinched
and the looks that she cast upon the
prisoner were full of vengeance and
hatred.
For a time Mme. Calllaux glared
back at the angry witnegs. Then she
shrugged her shoulders and turned in
ter chair until her back was before
the witness' gaze.
This seemed to infuriate Mme.
.Gueydan still further, and tears of
rage rolled down her chalk-white
cheeks,
“They are trying to make me out a
baseless woman!” shouted the wit
ness. “But they will never succeed.
I have all kinds of documents to
prove my words are true.
Shakes Fist at Successor.
“My marriced life was the happiest
until this woman appeared.”
Here the witness shook a menacing
fist in the direction of the defendant.
The witness then took a bundle of
letters’ from her dress. They were
tied with a lavender ribbon, which
Mme. Gueydan untied with trembling
fingers. She had no sooner started to
read one of the letters when Fernard
Labori, chief of counsel for the de
fendant, was upon his feet objecting
and protesting. .
“Let her read them!” shouted At
torney Charles Chenu, legal represen
tative of Gaston Calmette's children.
Spectators joined in the tumult,
some crying:
“Yes, allow her to.read them,” and
others shouting, ‘“No! No!”
Judge Albanel finally ruled that tha
letters should be read first by him-

This decision was greeted with
cries of “Bravo!”
Judge Reads Letters.
Then the letters were passed up to
the judges, who began poring over
them. ;
! Mme. Gueydan did not immediate
ly end her address to the court. She
was apparently so worked up that she
could not keep still,
! “M. Caillaux is a very powerful
man in France, and don't you forget
it!” she cried in vigorous accents.
Calllaux, who was seated in the
very first rank of spectators, eyed his
former wife as though amused at her
cutbursts,
“Yes," she continued, “but despite
hkis power the divorce decree was pro
rounced in my favor when the suit
was decided in the courts.”
Mme, Caillaux was very pale, but
showed marvelous self-control while
' Mme. Gueydan was on the stand.
On account of the enormous crowd
and the excitement, republican guards
were kept moving through the crowd
ed couriroom during the afternoon.
President Watches Case.
With political passions daily
mounting higher as a result
of the trial of Mme. Henrlette
Caillaux for the assassination of Gas
ton Calmette, editor of Le Figaro, of
ficials showed anxiety over the situa
tion to-day.
Secret missions were sent to Presi
dent Poincare and Premier Vivianl,
who are now in Russia, advising them
to be prepared to hasten back to
Paris at a moment's notice.
Seizing' upon the opportunity af
forded by the public clamor against
‘Joseph Caillaux, husband of the de
fendant and ex-Premier, the Royalist
]nrganlza(ions are preparing for a
coup d'etat, hoping to overthrow the
‘republic and re-establish the mon
‘archy. Agents of the Government
ihave secured full details of the con
spiracy.
It s well understood that the Pres
{dent and Premier timed their state
visit to Russia in order to be away
from Paris during the Caillaux trial.
They knew that Caillaux would be
‘the storm center of the trial and that
political affairs would be injected, but
anticlpated only in a measure the
great storm that has arisen.
~ The political aspect of the case
had heightened the public interest
over night and the ears of Paris were
strained for sensations which might
likely crop out,
Real Issues Obscured. |
Agalin the real issue, the guilt of
Mme. Caillaux, was overshadowed.
Political issues involving chiefly ,the
activities and policies of M. Caillaux,
while he was a member of the
French Cabinet, came to the fore.
Mme. Caillaux, like the vital issues
of her case, shrank into the back
ground. She was scarcely noticed
when the session began.
A well-known financier, Gaston
Dreyfus, who was supposed to know
much about private Caillaux corre
spondence, which Calmette had In
his possession, was the first witness
for the defense. He caused a sur
prise by saying that he knew noth
ing about any such documents.
Then came M. Painlipe, who swore
that Dreyfus had teld him he kpew
all about the Caillaux letters which
L.e ‘Figaro was to publish.
While Painlipe was testifying, Drey
fus vigorously shook his head and
muttered that the witness was wrong.
Ex-Wife Offered to Sell Letters.
The editor of The Paris Journal
testified that Mme. Gueydan, the di
vorced wife of Caillaux, had come to
his office and offered a number of In
timate letters for s~le.

Lone Militant Eludes Buckingham
Guards and Interrupts Home
Rule Conference.
Speclal Cable to The Atlanta Georglan.
LONDON, July 23.—Eluding guards
who had been stationed about Buck
ingham Palace to prevent an attack
by militant suffragettes, a lone “fury”
stormed the residence of King George
to-day while reoresentatives of all
political parties were conferring on
the Irish home rule, and created in
tense excitement.
| As soon as the Ministers had en
tered the palace, the woman dashed
from the crowd of spectators that had
watched the arrival of the political
leaders, and darted through the gates
and across the courtyard to the visi
tors’ entrance,
Confronted there by a palace atta
che and thrust back, the woman pick
ed up stones and hurled them through
the window. One fell into the room In
which the home rule conference was
belng held and narrowly missed the
head of Premier Asquith.
The guards quickly recovered from
their astonishment and prevented
any further damage. The woman took
to her heels, shrieking, ‘Votes for
women!"” and “Down with the tortur
ers of women!” but was captured
after a short chase.
That the Irish home rule deadlock
is unbroken and that King George's
efforts to effect a compromise boe
tween the warring political factions
have failed, was the indication to
day, after the third conference be
tween representatives of the Govern
ment and leaders of the varlous par
ties at Buckingham Palice. To-day's
meeting was longer than elther of
those that preceded {t, but the only
official announcement i{ssued was to
the effect that Premier Asquith had
interviewed the King at the conclu
sion of the conference.
Liberal leaders said that the dead
lock originated over the problem of
fixing the Ulster areas to be exempt
ed from the provisions of the home
rule bill.

NEW YORK, July 23.—The woman
who {8 in business simply for the sake

“Unless a young woman s obliged
to go to work as a means of provid

hood for those dependent upon her,
she should remain at home,"” said Miss
Greene. “Many girls seek employment
just as a means of passing away

“As a result they keep someone -
