day before she was restored to con-
sciousnesss
Nine Gue-idan, divorced wife OF
!CailIaux, was not in court today but
she had taken terrible vengeance
against the woman who she declared
from the witness stand had defiled her
home and stolen the love OF her hus-
band The letters which were read
were furnished by Nine. Guardian As
Maitre Labori read each burning pas
| sage, the spectators In the court room
saw before them not the wife Of the
powerful Caillaux, but his mistress.
"My only consolation is the thought
%, you; the thought Of having you in
my arms as at Ouchy. What delicious
memories" wrote Caillaux to the
woman he loved while still married to
Nine Gueridan. Judge Louis Albanel
and Judge Dagoury sat side by side
on the bench today but at the conclus-
ion of the trial, it is accepted the two
will fight a duel Albanel dispatched
his seconds to Dagourey today be-
cause of letters intimating he was
favoring Caillaux in arguments az to
the love letters being read. Judge
Dagourey will probably send his sec
londs to Albanel accepting the chal-
lenge tomorrow or Monday.
The defense played one OF It's strong
cards late today when Doctors Pozzl
and Prouty were called to the stand
and declared that with the proper At
,tention Calmette would have survived
the wounds inflicted by Nine. Caillaux.
AS Nine. Caillaux has contended from
the first that she did not intend to
kill the editor, the testimony Of Pozzi
and Prouty was regarded as of the
greatest importance. They declared
fatal. Had the most elementary pre-
cautions been taken, they declared
the editor would have lived and been
on his feet within ten days or two
weeks. They criticized the action OF
taking Calmette far out to the clinic
lat Neully but declared that even then
IL the hemorrhage had been stopped
iby means Of hemostatic pinchers, his
life might have been saved.
With this testimony. adjournment In
tie trial was taken until Monday. 1t
was trying day even for Paris. Worn
iby the strain and the shouting of ap-
iproval or disapproval Of each develop
fment, the crowds filed from the palace
of Justice, where outside other throngs
awaited and gendarmes and mounted
troops we're on guard to prevent any
manifestation.
Early next week the case viii be
given to the jury. With the conclus-
ion of the evidence, however, Maitre
Chenu will first deliver the address
and argument in behalf OF the Cal
lmette heirs. Jules Herbaux, the pub
lie prosecutor, will follow and then
will come Maitre Labor for the ue-
tense. The speech Of Labor, noted
las the defender of Captain Dreyfus,
lis expected to be the effort of his life
ILabori will insist that the letters read
today were not those the publication
of which Mrs. Caillaux so greatly
feared and which resulted in the
shooting during moment of emotion
ial insanity.
Judge Albanel will then submit to
the jury a list Of questions which they
must answer. The first will probably
be whether Nine. Caillaux IS guilty
.of homicide. Whether she Is guilty
OF causing the wounds and whether
the wounds caused death. II mere
lily found guilty of causing the
wounds, the crime becomes a misde-
