Paris, July 27.-Mme. Bertha Guey- dan, the divorced wife of Joseph Gail laux, is the heroine of the Mme. Cail- laux trial. She came through her or deal on the stand with flying colors She scored the hardest blow against the defense when she handed five let ters to Mpe. Caillaux's counsel and agreed that he read them in court. These were the love letters which Calmette had threatened to publish and which it was said by the defense caused Mime. Caillaux to shoot the editor. Labori, counsel for the ac- cused, evaded reading them when he found that there was nothing in the missives that warranted Mime. Cai1- laux in fearing exposure.

French Women Who Kin.
CToronto Mail and Express

(Toronto Mail and Express.)
 They have got out of the habit of| executing women in France. For the past ten years there have been about $50 murders a year in France, two-thirds of them crimes of pas- sion, as the French call them. Rare ly, indeed, is a murderess executed There is a very notorious case that may be recalled, that of Mime. Lam-
 berjack, the wife of a well-known automobile manufacturer. She had
 been divorced from a former hus- band for twelve months. and the for torneys. were to meet for the purpose of arranging for an equitable divi- sion of the furniture. In the pres ence of the witnesses Mime. Lamber- jack drew a revolver and shot her ex-husband. She even pursued the wounded man into the garden and there emptied the contents of her re- volver into his body. Her defense was that she loved him too much to see him married to another She was acquitted.
 Another case was that of Mime. Poeckles, who kept small school in the suburbs of Paris. One night as she and her husband were returning home together a couple of gunmen opened fire and killed the man. At the trial it was proved that Mme. Poeckles had hired them to commit the murder. She said that her hus- band was a man of dissolute char acter and had been unfaithful to her. She was acquitted. France does not punish her murderesses because tho average Frenchman is very impress sionable, and pays more attention to the emotional appeals of defending counsel than would the average Cana dian juror. On account of this forensic eloquence reaches high pitch in France, and scores of mur- derers are saved every. year for no better reason than they have elo- quent advocates.
 In France the judge is not ths stern master of the courtroom that he is in British countries. At the trial of Mme. Steinheil, who was ac- cused of having murdered her hus- band and her mother, a contingent of youthful harristers behaved out rageously, making it impossible for the jury to hear the voice of the pub lie prosecutor and ieering whenever he made point against the prisoner. A French trial, according to recent observer, resolves itself into tri- angular duel among the judge, the prosecutor and the lawyer for the defense. Sometimes all three speak at once. The judge frequently in- terrogates witnesses. The public in the background applauds. misses, laughs and otherwise takes hand in the proceedings. Emotion decides the issue. If the murderess looks re- penitant, and weeps becomingly. she will frequently he acquitted without the jury leaving the box. In view of the great political influence which Mime. Caillaux can command 1t does not appear likely that she will pay any severe penalty for her crime

 SURPRISE IN COURT
Ex-XiniStcT Presents Authentic P2- peS and Will Of CastOn Calmctte.

Paris, July 27.-Mme Caillaux, when she took her seat today in the 1 prisoners enclosure of the criminal court at the Palace of Justice for the seventh days hearing of her. trial for the wilful murder on March 16 last Of Gaston Calmette, editor of the Figaro appeared much calmer than she had been on the preceding days She had, however, suffered from two fainting spells last night as a result of the severe strain she had under gone on Saturday when she swooned during the reading of the love letters sent to her by Joseph Caillaux, for mer premier, while he was still the husband of Mme. Guaydan, who then occupied the witness stand.
 Demands to Be Heard.
 As soon as Judge Louis Albanel and his three associates had taken their seats on the bench, M. Caillaux de- manded to be heard He said
 ''The Figaro having accused me to- day of suborning witnesses, I should like to submit to the court some au- thentic papers concerning the late Gaston Calmette's relations with the Hungarian government. I have hesi- tated to use them, but I have decided to do so in view of the Figaros atti- tude. I desire 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.
 Documents Are Authentic.
 M. Caillaux afterward said:
 II shall not repeat what I have said already about the bonds which united the Figaro to certain foreign personalities. I merely inform the jury that l place at the disposition of the court authentic documents signed by Gaston Calmette stipulating in the clearest possible fashion the condi- tions under which the Figaro would work in the interests of the Hun garian government Every French man will realize today what would have been tn eeffect of that work. These documents are of unimpeach- able authenticity. They were given me by Count Karolyi, chief of the Hungarian radical party"
 When he had concluded M Gail laux handed a bundle of papers to the presiding judge. They were not read in court.
 Names Philippe Chaser.
 In his speech, M. Caillaux had men toned the name of Philippe Glaser as a signatory of the documents with Gaston Calmette. Blaser is one of the leading editors of the Figaro.
 After the reading of the will, which disposed of s2.600,0OO, M. Caillaux said:s
 We may we'll be astonished at the singularly rapid increase of M. Cal mettes fortune. In our middle class antilles it would take 15O years for such a fortune to accumulate"

DRAG UPON CURRENT
 EX1|NCU|SHES LIGHTS
ProVsd to Coroner That Signals
 May Sometimes Be Misleading.

Westport, July 27.-It was demon strated to Coroner John J. Phelan to- day that lights in the box signals on the trolley line going through this town could be eXtinguished moment arily by drag upon the current due to many cars travelling through block Simultane ously. Three tests were made by direction of the coroner as a part of his inquiry into the trolley collision here last Wednesday night when four persons were killed. At the hearing last week some trolley employees on the cars which had been at the Country club signal box in the western part of the town claimed that the signal lights there were very dim while motormen and others who were at the Wesport box claimed that the lights burned brightly. Of- ficials of the company claimed that operation of a number of cars in the block would not dim the light. The testimony was so much at variance that Coroner Phelan ordered a dem onstration.
 On the third test this afternoon with seven cars climbing the State street grade-up which grade went the freight car which hit passenger trolley 294 on Wednesday night-the lights in both signal boxes dimmed and then for fifteen seconds went out completely The extinguishment was two minutes and fifteen seconds after the seven. cars left the signal box at Westport Center to climb the hill On the previous tests the lights had not been affected The third test showed that cars could be moving xvh hn u.;r O tC
 Same Voltage of Current.
 Superintendent Chapman of Bridge port stated to the coroner that the voltage of the current on the line was the same as on Wednesday night. The Norwalk- Bridgeport section is supplied by the power houses at both ends by special circuits and the current is fed independent of the city lines. ..-.
 Chief Inspector Elwell of the public utilities commission and Coroner Phe- Ian both expressed surprise that the lights were extinguished The motor men of the cars testified that their cars were moving through the period of the test and during the fifteen sec onds when the lights in both signal boxes went out. The signals were observed by the two officials at the same time. Superintendent Chapman J. B. Potter of the Norwalk division, and others observed the test Fred Andrews, president of the Norwalk l union, said that the | tests made were severe ones
