French Ministers Wife Kills Editor

ASSOCIATED PRESS DESPATCH
 PARIS March 16.-GaSton Calmette, editor of the Figaro, was shot today by Mme Henriette Caillaux, wife of Joseph Caillaux, the French Minister of Finance, and died tonight Mme. Caillaux went to the Figaro office seeking vengeance. M Calmette hay ing bitterly assailed her husband. She fired at least three times, the bullets penetrating the editors chest, side and abdomen. .sa& d
 While the editor was being trans ported to the hospital, he said repeat edly, T have done my duty. 1 have done my duty"
 Having committed the deed, Mme Caillaux submitted to arrest, and while employees of the Figaro office were said:
 Since there is no justice in this country l will take it on myself It was an act of justice. Take me where you will'
 Mime. Caillaux was removed to the police station where she underwent preliminary examination, the substance of which was communicated to the press at her desire.
 T am sorry" she said, for what I was obliged to do. I had no intention of killing NJ. Calmette. I would be happy to know that he will recover. I desired only to teach him lesson. "--
 At the moment of the attack NJ. Cal mette was preparing to leave his office in company with Paul Bourget, the author. He excused himself to receive Mime. CaillauX, who fired almost inn mediately.
 In her statement to the police, Mime. Caillaux explained that the campaign against her husband had become intol- lerable and that she was determined to stop 1t. She consulted an eminent lawyer, who advised her that legal pro- ceedings would be futile, and that they were often worse in the case of on in- nocent man than in the case of the guilty. She decided then to take the law into her own hands.
 She bought a revolver, drove to the Figaro office, and sent in her card. M. Calmette was most polite and ask cd what he could do for her. Tt is needless for me to pretend that I am making a friendly call" I answered, and then I drew my revolver from my huff and fired all the cart ridges, M. Calmette tried to take shell ter behind desk.
 Mime. Caillaux was formally charged with attempted homicide, and removed to the St. Lazare prison. Later the charge was changed to homicide It was officially announced tonight that M Caillaux had rendered his resigna- tion from the ministry of finance. but that Premier Doumergue had withheld his decision until tomorrow.

Candidate for Mayor Would
 Have Prompt Action Un- der the Agreement Be tween Corporation Com mission and P. G. < E. Co.
PHOENIX SHOULD
 BE REPRESENTED
It's Legal Department Should at All Times Be Alert to Protect Citizens Against Exactions, the Candidate Believes

The Republican, as it's readers will recall, since the announcement of the settlement and agreement between the state corporation commission and the Pacific Gas and Electric com pany, has consistently advocated an appraisal. as provided for in the agreement by a commission of quail fled experts of national reputation, of the company's property to secure a basis for fixing rates for light, power and gas.
 Judge Lewis, candidate for mayor pas asked yesterday how he stood or this matter. Said he:
 "The city has a vital interest in u is and if I am elected mayor shall act promptly to secure repre- sentation of the city in this appraisal. It concerns deeply a large majority light and power 1 believe that proper appraisal of the companys property will give a basis for fixing rates which will materially lower the monthly bills of hundreds of families.
 T am told that the city of Phoenix is getting the worst of it in the rates charged by the Pacific Gas and Elec- tric company. It is said that the same company is furnishing the same class of service to the street railway company at a lower rate I have not rad time 10 investigate this If there IS any truth in the report this is q ms tier that should have the attention of the city authorities at once, intend to see to it not only that the city has a square deal in this matter, but what is far more inn portant to those living in the city to see to it that the citizens of Phoe- nix have some direct representation before the corporation commission through it's legal department in find ing out what the Teal effect of the recent compromise settlement of the affairs of the gas company is.
 The city of Phoenix should take some interest directly in looking out for the interests of its citizens in matters of this kind. I believe that something more is demanded of the city commission than tine mere for nal conduct of the city business. It ic up to the new commission to see tc it that the city is protected in all matters that vitally affect the inter ests of the people living in it."

 Every man attending the meeting was heavily armed, and ready to shoot at a moments notice. Residents of this section are bitter in their attitude toward the Mexicans The local off cials say it would take little to send them across the border to avenge the raid.
 Fear is entertained for the safety of women, and children. There is a gen. eral feeling of restlessness. There is belief the raid may be duplicated at some other border point at any time.
 Although no proclamation was issued martial law existed today in effect along the border for miles on each side of Tecate. All last night the border was patrolled by troops across the line A few hundred feet distance. Mexican rurales performed guard duty.
 Governor Johnson has been asked to make a formal demand on the governor of Lower California for the delivery of the Mexican suspected. Anti Mexi- can feeling is at fever heat in the vicinity of Tecate.
 Every man within a radius of ten miles of Tecate is fully armed, and supplies of arms, and ammunition have been ordered from San Diego. Major Davis, commander of Fort Rosecrans here received instruction from Wash ington to lend any assistance to the immigration and customs officials and to keep the department informed of conditions

Every effort will be made to arrest the mur derers and have them returned to Cali fornia under extradition proceedings for trial
 The report of the war department says:
 Three or more Mexicans with revol- vers crossed the international line at Tecate. killing one civilian, Wounding another civilian seriously and burned a store. including the body of a civil ian. The Mexicans escaped. but one was recognized as a member of rail- road construction gang chartered about half a mile southwest of Tecate. Fed eral soldiers are not thought to have been implicated.
