IT'S NOT IN THE BIBLE.

CAPE TOWN, July 21.-On the
ground that it is contrary to biblical
teaching. the Dutch women of Zout-
pansberg have petitioned the South
African parliament against female
suffrage. Furthermore, they say that
women really do not want the vote,
would not use it if they had it, and
that men are amply qualified to make
and administer the laws without the
assistance of the other sex.

CAILLAUX- -CALMETTE
DRAMA IN TABLOID

PARIS, July 20.--me. Caillaux was
histirical when taken to court today,
and the indictment was read. She
burst into tears but soon recovered
her composure. Caillaux was nervous
and pale and smoked cigarettes in
cessantly before the court met.
The defendant was called to the
stand this afternoon and told her story
of the shooting.

with the shooting and killing of Gas
ton Calmette, editor of lie Figaro. I"
The trial of the woman whose act all
but upset cabinet, threw France into
political turmoil the like of which
it has hardly seen since the Drey-
ful case, and resulted in her hus-
bands retirement as cabinet officer,
attracted an enormous crowd toward
the palace of justice.
Heavy police and military precau-
tlons have been taken to stop rioting
which is considered certain about the
palace of justice. During the trial.
in order to avoid unnecessary risk Of
personal violence against the fair
prisoner, she will be locked in the
tower of the Conviergerie, famous as
the prison of Marie Antoinette. This
ancient structure now forms part of
the more modern palace of justice.
Scores of witnesses have been sum-
moned in what is expected to be one
of the most thrilling trials in the his
tory of French courts. They include
well known literary men, politicians,
journalists and social personages
known throughout Europe. The au-
dience will be none the less brilliant
although but few can be admitted.
The space available is limited and
scores of visiting lawyers, diplomatic
representatives of foreign powers in
Paris, newspaper correspo idents and
others must necessarily be taken care
of.
Attorney Ferdinand Labor, repre-
senting Nine. Caillaux, and assisted
very quietly by the accused woman's
husband, is said to be planning a
surprise for the prosecution. 1t is
said he may try to prove that Cal
mette died, not directly as the result
of the bullet wounds but because of
useless delay on the part of attend
ing surgeons to operate. Had they
done so, according to experts said to
have been summoned, Calmette would
be alive today and would have been
up and about ten days after the
shooting. 1t is known that the "brain
storm" plea will be entered by the
noted attorney in defense of his client.
A bitter fight will be made to save
the beautiful woman from imprison-
ment for the crime which she says
she was driven to cimmit by the bit
ter attacks that had been made upon
her husband. Nine. Caillaux had said
she did not go to Calmette's office
with the intention of killing him, but
desired merely to frighten him and
teach him lesson"
Nine. Caillaux shot Calmette in the
latter's office at the Figaro March
l6, after the editor had printed, as a
elimination of a bitter campaign
against Joseph Caillaux, a letter of a
personal nature said by some to have
been written by Caillaux to his pres
ent wife while she was the wife of
another. This, however, has been de-
MED. In any event the letter, was
from Caillaux to lady and there
were rumors that two or three other
letters from Caillaux to the woman
now bearing his name, were to be
printed by "Le Figaro"
Nine. Caillaux wished to get pos
session of these letters. She decided
to visit the "Figaro" offices. An au-
tomato revolver was concealed in her
| muff. Soon after she was admitted
to Calmette's office six shots rang
out. The editor was found gasping
in his chair, four bullet wounds in
his body. Nine. Caillaux still held
the revolver in her hand. She was
calm and cool, quietly submitted to
arrest and was imprisoned.

PLAYERS OF MAJOR
LEAGUES ON STRIKE

NEW YORK, July 2O-David Fultz,
president of the Baseball Players fra
ternity, called a general strike of all
players under contract to the clubs
of the National and American leagues
to be effective Wednesday unless the
national commission yields to is fra
ternity's demands.
The fraternity objects to the com
missions ruling in the case of First
Baseman Kraft, formerly of New Or
leans. The commission sent him to
the Nashville team and insists that
Newark, of the international league,
owns Kraft. The fraternity leaders
secretly met last night and sent an
ultimatum to the commission that they
had decided to strike.
President johnson of the Ameri-
can league, said: "If the American
league players or majority of them
obey the strike order Wednesday, ev-
cry American league club will close
its gates. We will stop their salaries
and fine every striker heavily. We
will keep the gates locked all the sea-
son if necessary. It's about time, this.
fraternity nonsense ends"
NEW YORK, July 21.-The threat
ened baseball players strike is avert
ed. Organized baseball sidestepped
the issue when the American league
magnates at special meeting today
authorized the resale of Player Kraft
for twenty-five hundred dollars from
Nashville to Newark. President Fultz,
of the players fraternity, said;
"1here will be no strike. Kraft's
disposition satisfies us. That is all
we wanted. Give him square deal"
BUFFALO, N. Y, July 21.--Hal
