the feeling she had put into her de-

CaillauX talked over her case with
Fernand Labori, her advocate, in q
private waiting room. After Judge
Louis Albanel and his associates had
taken their places on the bench.
Nine. Caillaux entered the prison
ors' enclosure with an air of making
herself at home.
She was dressed as the first day
of the trial. She took off her coat
and looked quietly around the crowd
ed court. Dark circles under her eyes
and her quick nervous gestures
seemed to betray the strain she was
undergoing.
Joseph Caillaux, the prisoners
husband, then entered the court and
took his place among the witness.
He was accompanied by two detec-
tives owing to the fact that the
group of bystanders had hooted him
and shouted insults at him as he left
the prison after visiting his wife.
Two boys from the Figaro were
the first witnesses. They described
the arrival of Nine. Caillaux at the
offices of the Figaro on the day Of
the crime. They told how she wait

into the room occupied by CASTOR

Fthe moment Wien Nine Caillaux'
card was brought In, then told of the

"'You will not see herr said"

Maitre Labori then thrilled the

the characters descuss and condemn
the publication of the heroine's love
letters Coming Immediately after
Bourgeois eulogy of CASTOR Calmette.
with which he had closed his testi-
mony, the reading OF the dialogue by
Maitre Labori was regarded by OBJ
serving lawyers as a master stroke.
Maitre Labori's voice was musical
and full of dramatic feeling. When
/ he had concluded, Paul Bourget re-
marked:
Literature is not life
He agreed, however, that private
letters ought not to be published and
said he did not believe Calmette had
intended to publish the Caillaux let
ters.
The scene of the shooting was then
reconstructed by a succession OF en-
ployes OF the Figaro.
Charles Giraudeau. reporter;
Henri Roouleau, messenger. and
Jean Cercle, telephone operator,
related portions OF their experiences.

vertising department was talking
with Henri Honore, an artist, and

Voisin.

but we are letting loose the hunting
dogs on all sides.
Honore was then called and de-
nied that Caillaux had been men
l,ioned and Masson's deposition wal
read to the same effect.
j Other members OF the staff of the
ii Figaro then testified, among then
Louis Latzarus, who gave vivit
