or Mime. Henrlette CalllauN LOT tue ihui . der of NJ Gaston Calmette editor of the Figaro, was completed today. Counsel for the prosecution and defense will sum up tomorrow Joseph Caillaux, former French premier, injected into the trial a new light of European politics.
 He offered in evidence documents signed by Calmette stipulating in the clearest possible fashion the conditions under which the Figaro would work in the in- terest of the government He also offered in evidence Calmette's will This showed much of Calmettes fortune came from woman under circumstances which has never been explained.
 When asked how any of the documents affected the trial of his wife, he said:
 There is perhaps something worse than losing ones life. That is to live by at tacking women and enriching ones self.
 Statement Causes Uproar
 While M. Henri Bernstein was testifying the statement caused such an uproar that Judge Albanel had the court cleared and suspended the sitting. The playwright abandoned al. semblance of courtesy, ad- dressing the former premier and husband of the prisoner as Caillaux without prefix.
 We have just witnessed the French treasury committing a felony by appro- priating a wills contents and turning 1t over to Caillaux," he continued. Then we have seen ministers getting very care ful latterly come here and declare a order to cover up their former colleague that diplomatic documents accepted with thanks by the President of the republic are forgeries. Either President Poin- csire is Predetermined or his ministers have lied
 "M. Caillaux," he continued, stands on a coffin and makes a pedestal of it. M. Caillaux recalls a folly of my youth. Today I am in the fight inf service of the artillery and if war comes l shall be at the front. If M. Caillaux were there he could not replace himself by a woman. He must fire himself"
 The whole court broke into an uproar and M. Bernstein was applauded.
 Mime. Caillaux Calm
 Madame Henriette Caillaux today ap- peared much calmer than on preceding days. She had, however, suffered from two fainting spells last night as a result of the severe strain she underwent on Saturday, when she swooned during the reading of the love letters sent to her by Joseph Cailaux, former French l IItIllcT, W11le ne Was the husband of Mine. Gueydan.
 When Judge Louis xAlbanel and his three associates had taken their seats on the bench M. Caillaux demanded to be heard.
 He said:
 The Figaro having accused me today Of suborning witnesses I should like to submit to the court some authentic expressions concerning the late Gaston Calmette's relation with the Hunga- rian government. I have hesitated to usc them, but I have decided to do so, ir view of the Figaro's attitude. l de- sire also to read the late M. Calmette' s will"
 Maitre Chenu: "How did you get it?"
 M. Caillaux: 'In the same way that you got my letters
 M. Caillaux then proceeded to read the will.
 NJ Caillaux afterward said
 q shall not repeat what l have said already about the bonds which united the Figaro to certain foreign person. ages. I merely inform the jury that I place at the disposition of the court authentic documents signed by Gaston Calmette. stipulating in the clearest possible fashion the conditions under which the Figaro would work in the in terests of the Hungarian government. Every Frenchman will realize today what would have been the effect of that work These documents are of unimpeachable authenticity. They were given me by Count Karolyi chief of tho Hungarian radical party"
 Papers Not Read
 When he had concluded, M. Caillaux handed a bundle of papers tied to- gcther to the presiding judge. They were not read in court.
 In his speech, M. Caillaux had men, toned the name Philippe Glazer as a signer of the documents, with M. Gas ton Calmette Glazer is one of the leading editors of the Figaro. After the reading of the will which disposed of $2.600,000, M. Caillaux said:
 We may well be astonished at the singularly rapid increase of M. Cal mette's fortune. In our middle class families it would take 150 years for such a fortune to accumulate"
 M. Caillaux in the foregoing strain continued: Sometimes about M. Henri Bernstein tthe playwright, in par ficular. It does not come well from a man who failed in his full duty toward his country treferring to Bernstein s alleged desertion from the army) to de- liver certificates of morality"
 While reading the will of NJ Calmette M. Cailiaux added:
 ''I wish to call particular attention 10 the clause saying, a greater part of the fortune I leave comes from a per- sonal gift made to me by Mme Bour- sin, it being understood that I paid her an income therefrom during her fife
 What do we gather from this will?' M Caillaux continued. First of all, the act of gift was executed illegally which constitutes testamentary fraud. How did Mime Maria Boursin, who in- herited from M. Chauchard under con ditions it were better not to dwell upon from 4O,000 to 5O,00O francs. consent to give up S,0O0,000 francs to M. Calmette? It has never been explained but an explanation has been brought to me which l have despaired to use"
 Was Political Move
 New York, July H.-The disclosure of the relations between Gaston Calmette as editor of the Paris Figaro, and the present Hungarian government. though advantageous to the defense of Mime. Henriette Caillaux in her trial for the killing of Calmette, was in fact. a move in Hungarian party politics. Count Mich ael Karoly leader of the Hungarian radicals. said here tonight on the eve of his departure for Hungary.
 Count Karolyi confirmed his part in furnishing M. Cailaux with the papers which the latter presented in court in Paris today He said this was not done as a service of one friend to another in { lively to question whether M. Caillaux was his friend. The papers were of this years date. Count Karolyi said. and were two in number.
 One was a letter addressed ito NJ. Cal mette by personages in Budapest and the other from him to them. Both were
