The specific letter published by
iCalmette which finally brought on the
tragedy and political upheaval was
dated the senate July Is, 1901.
Caillaux at that time was minister
of finance in the VALDEZ Rousseau

porting an income tax law but in
this letter declared he had succeeded
in crushing the measure.

CHICAGO, March 17.-There was a
merry war Of fashion in Chicago to-
day when the Chicago Dress Makers
club and representatives Of NINE.
Paquin began their second gay exhibit
OF American and French modes at
Michigan boulevard hotels.
The Chicago fashion designers prov
ed conclusively that American made
gowns are just as Clique and artistic
as are those made in France by one
|of the greatest designers Of Paris.
There is more wonderful variety in
the American designs. Some of the
members of the dress makers club
contend that women should dress as
flowers and they showed Killarney
rose evening gown and tulip walk
/ ing suit in shades of brown that
were very stunning.

PARIS, March 1.-THE bitterest
political strife since the conflict
growing out OF the Dreyfuss case was
predicted for France today following
the sensational shooting Of Castor Cal
mette, editor of the Figaro by Nine.
Caillaux, wife OF the minister OF A.
nance, Joseph Caillaux. Calmette
died shortly after midnight from four
bullet wounds in his chest.
The beautiful Nine Caillaux is con-
fined today In the st. Lazare woman's
prison. Caillaux has submitted his
resignation from the cabinet. In
some quarters the resignation Of the
entire cabinet is demanded.
Government. social and political cir
cies were stirred to their base today
by the sensational developments in the
bitter feud between Calliaux and the
editor but standing out above all was
the fact that two women have been
the forces behind the political war
fare. The former Mme Dupre who
married and then was divorced by Cal.
ianx, had been intimate With Jsairnette.
She is believed to have furnished the
editor with letters published in the Fl
CARO- which so aroused Nine. Caillauy
that she took the EDITORS life
The letters which were published
were written to the present Nine
Caillaux before she became the wife
Of the minister and Nine. Dupre Is
believed to have turned them over t.
Calmette that Ne might be avenged.
