After the readh Will, which
disposed of S2,6 NJ. CaillauX
said:
1--WE may well be astonished at the
singularly rapid increase lof NJ. Cal
mette's fortune. In our middle class
families it would take $50 years for
such fortune to accumulate"
CaImette Might Have Lived.
DR. Eugene Doyen was the first
witness called today. He testified
that Calmette's wounds were not
necessarily fatal; that with proper
have lived. II the hemorrhage had
been stopped by means of hemistatic
pinchers when Calmette was taken
to the clinic he would have been on
his feet in two weeks time, the wit
ness asserted.
NJ. Caillaux afterward said:
Il shall not repeat what ! have
said already about the bonds which
united the Figaro to certain foreign
personalities. I merely inform the
jury that I place at the disposition
of the court authentic documents
signed by CASTOR Calmette, stipulat-
ing in the clearest possible fashion
the conditions under which the
Figaro would work in the interests
of the Hungarian government
Every Frenchman will realize to-
day what would have been the effect

| of unimpeachable authenticity They
were given me by Count Karolyi,
chief of the Hungarian Radical
party"
Only Americans at Trial.
The only Americans. aside from
the newspaper correspondents. who
have gained admission to the Call
laux trial are Martin Vogel, as
sistant United states treasurer, and
his wife. formerly Mrs. Albert Lew
isohn, who were married fortnight
ago in London.
They have been here on their
honeymoon, and started for Berlin
today, where they will be the guests
of Ambassador Gerard, and Will re-
turn to Paris at the end of the week.
They went to the Palace of Justice.
where they found many other Amer
leans vainly seeking admission.
without the slightest idea that they
would be more successful.
In America Mr.. Nogel uses cards
bearing his name only. Here his
friends suggested that it would b.
better to have new cards, engraved
with his title, which he did more rs
joke than as a serious proceeding.
At the palace he met French bar
rister, of whom he inquired concern
ing the history of the building. The
barrister, having leisure. chatted
genially. and presently Mr. Vogel
produced one of his new cards. The
barrister asked if he would not like
to witness the CaillauX trial, and,
receiving an affirmative answer, he
pushed through the lines of soldiers
guarding every corridor and wing IF
the building where the trial was in
progress, and led the way to the
judges entrance.
The presiding magistrate who was
also profoundly impressed with the
card, caused Mr.. and Mrs. Vogel to
be conducted behind the grille. where
the elite of France had been observ-
ing the proceedings.
Nine. CaiIlaux's Quiet Sunday.
Nine. Caillaux, much worn by
the agitations of the week. spent a
quiet Sunday over her mail and the
newspapers. The director of the
prison inquired if she would like to
attend mass in the chapel, but she
declined. Her husband talked with
her for some time. as did also her
counsel MaiIfe LaDOfl.
The impression around the Palace
of Justice, quite without the sugges-
ton of improper influences. is that
Nine. Caillaux will be acquitted
or will receive a short suspended
sentence. That is the opinion of old
functionaries, who, as it were, smell
out what juries are likely to do.
There is cynical disposition in
Paris to take the trial lightly
In the background and often in the
foreground of the trial, Is ex-Premier
Caillaux. He is ever in the popular
Imagination as mysteriOusly guiding
and controlling affairs. Caillaux is not
a popular man, but he is strong in
the organization of political expedi-
ents and in leadership of leaders
rather than of the people.
He has been able to draw together
the Radical and Socialist parliament
tary groups into a working party, or
which the present cabinet is largely
representative. His enemies-and
there seems to be no public man In
France who has more violent oppon-
ents-view him as a sinister and
dangerous figure
The acquittal of Nine. Caillaux,
or, at least, a short suspended
sentence against her, is now
the general expectation of Paris,
This is based upon the expressed
opinion of old court attendants, who
are supposed to have the faculty of
smelling out" in advance what Juries
will do.
The jurymen, who come and go as
they please except during the hours
court is actually in session, all tell
of letters they have received about
the case. Each has gotten a message
tbraotapino him with death IL Nine
Caillaux is liberated, and all have
received letters arguing for her ac-
quittal.
Parisians look upon the trial of
Nine. Caillaux as daily melodrama.
There have been mysterious diplo-
matte papers, which most persons
still think exist in the foreign minis
