The dramatic setting of the affair, involving political intrigues in which the prisoner's husband, a former French premier and minister of fi nances, was a prominent figure, were j 'st to the taste of the French public.

Among them were the pro curator general, Jules Herbaux, in charge of the prosecution, and Fer nand Tyahori, the famous advocate, whose face is known to everyy one, owing to his connection with the Dreyfus trial.

The Figaro today came out with a violently worded article from the pen of Alfred Capus, the recently chosen acadeeniician, or “immortal,” who now occupies the editorial chair formerly held by Gahnette. In It he declares: "The party which assaslnated Cal mette is going to do its best to defile his memory, for which purpose it has stopped at nothing and has not scrup led to violate confidences, thus giving a torestaste of what is in store.” The article continues with a pane g\ric on the dead editor and con cludes: “Cailloux, Go On!” "Those who have slain him from be hind would like to transform him Into a man involved in shady finance—a ,>pOrate “Caillaux, go on! Do not put your self out. You have well sharpened teeth, a heavy jaw. an appetite excit ed by the smell of blood; but the hon or Calmette is wrought in marble.

Caillaux stepped out into the center of the tribunal. The strong light from the windows opposite, or perhaps the masses of fares turned toward her in absolute silence seemed to startle the accused W’oman and she hesitated on the threshhold and reached out unsteadi ly to catch the arm of the guard at her right. After she ered the prisoner's en closure Mrr e. Caillaux stood with her eyes downcast and her shoulders bent, a timid looking figure In black.
