France has been stirred almost to
frenzy during the past few days oy the
assassination of CASTOR Calmette. edi-
tor of Figaro, by Madame CaillauX,
wife of the minister Of finance. Mad
anne CaillauX called at the office or the
editor on Monday and when ushered
into the presence Of the Journalist ao-
dressed him with a statement TO the
effect that: You know my call is not
a friendly one. Your attacks upon my
husband have reached a point where
they are unbearable and / have come
to stop them" With that she drew a
revolver from her muff and began mr.
ing. Editor Calmette died short time
afterward. News Of the killing soon
spread throughout Paris and the OPP
posing parties collected in mobs to dis
cuss the situation and take action. E1-
forts were made to organize demon
strations; but these were held down by
the military. NJ. CailauX who appears
to have been without knowledge OF ms
wife's proposed rash act, was broken In
spirit on account Of it, and on Tuesday
resigned his position in the cabinet.
The government was on the eve OF go
ing into an election to secure an en-
dorsement Of It's policies; but the MUIR
der seems to have brought about gen.
eral generalization, and in the opinion
of many the minority which was pre-
yiously hopeless will secure control.
The opposition charges that CaillauX
sent his wife to murder the editor.
Submission to the nine type sys-
tenn Of cotton grading favored by the
United States government was ac-
knowledged last Tuesday by the board
Of managers Of the New York cotton
exchange in the adoption Of resolu-
tion making the government standard
types of cotton che basis for trading
on and after April l, 1915. The reso-
luton reads: Resolved, That the
government standard types Of the fol-
lowing grades of cotton, /. e., middling
fair, strict good middling, good mid
ding, strict middling, middling, strict
low middling low middling, strict good
ordinary and good ordinary, shall be
the basis for determining the grade OF
all cotton for delivery upon contracts
maturing on and after April l, 1915"
The % cotton grades heretofore main
tanned by the New York cotton ex-
change have been criticised severely in
the south and it was said by some Of
those in touch with the situation that
todays action was taken to forestall
possible antagonistic legislation by
congress. The nine grade system has
been applied by the New Orleans eX-
change for years and is said to simpli-
fy the marketing Of the product Con-
ciliatory action was taken last fall by
the New York exchange, but the con-
cession did not completely appease
dissatisfaction in the element which
has insisted on a complete surrender,
IT is said.
