to Mime. Renouard and their complete
happiness and of the campaign of
LIE Figaro against him He said he
received an anonymous letter stating
that his private correspondence was
to be published.
Every day. saw my wife more high
ly strung he said. ~
Maitre Labor remarked to the
court that two of the documents
found upon the person of CASTOR Cal
mette had been sent to President
Poincare and that all the others had
been sent to Georges Prestat, the
president of the board of directors
of the Figaro.
81 see NJ. Prestat among the spec
tators," continued Maitre Labor.
Perhaps he can tell the court what
was done with those papers"
1.-THE papers | received" said M.
Prestat on arising, were only copies
in the handwriting of NJ Calmette.
One was the Fabre document. then
already published; the second was the
Thy Joe letter from which the init
mate passages had been expurgated.
] considered / had the right to de-
stroy those papers and I burned
them"
Then turning toward the jury NJ.
Prestat said: They had cost the
life of my relative"
At half-past o'clock the court took
a recess.
Mime. CaiIlaux Takes Notes.
Nine. Caillaux took frequent notes
of the testimony during the day,
writing on a pad placed upon her
knees, and she accumulated quite q
portfolio.
Louis Latzarus, news editor of the
Figaro, testified that he did not be-
lieve Calmette had any letters he in
tended to publish after the "Ton Jo'
note which was directly responsible
for the shooting.
No other letters were found after
Calmettes death, he said.
Latzarus told of a talk he had with
Calmette sometime before relating to
the fight lie Figaro was making
against Caillaux. Toward the last of
January Calmette showed him two
papers concerning Caillaux and re-
lating to the Agidir incident. He said
he would not publish these because
they might make trouble for France
outside the country.
I'm publishing the Ton Jo' letter"
said Latzarus, "Calmette told me
and other members of the staff, that
he had nothing else; his pockets were
empty. Someone mentioned the Fabre
document, but Calmette said he had
promised not to use that. He ex-
hibited the FaBre document saying he
would never part from it.
Had he had other letters we would
have found them after his death. We
found nothing"
Nine. Caillaux was up at this
morning preparing for the second
days hearing. The wife of the
former premier and minister of
finances took an early breakfast
and before o'clock was wait
ing for her husband who, how
ever, did not call at the prison of
the Conclergerie till between 9 and
10 o'clock. The prisoner and her hus-
band conversed for half an hour and
afterward she lunched.
81 feel better than / did yester-
day." Nine. Caillaux said to the So
licitous prison warden when he in
quired today about her health.
The prisoner had previously looked
through a mass of morning papers
and had found that generally she
had been sympathetically treated.
The stenographic report of her tes-
timony filed sixteen columns in some
of the newspapers, and besides this
there were many appropriations of her
dexterous arrangement of facts and
of the feeling she had put into her
descriptions of her agony.
The court was a little late in as
sembling today and meanwhile Nine
Caillaux talked over her case with
Fernard Labor, her advocate in
private waiting room.
After Judge Louis A1banel and his
associates had taken their places on
the bench Nine Caillaux entered the
prisoners enclosure without hesita-
ton and with an air of making her
self at hoHIe. She was dressed pre-
oisely as on the first day of the trial.
She took off her coat and looked
quietly around the crowded court.
Dark circles under her eyes and her
quick nervous gestures seemed to be-
tray the strain she was undergoing.
Joseph Caillaux, the prisoners hus-
band, then entered the court and took
his place among the witnesses. He
was accompanied by two detectives,
owing to the fact that a group of
bystanders had hooted him and shout
ed insults at him as he left the prison
after visiting his wife.
Two office boys from the Figaro
were the first witnesses today. They
described the arrival at the offices of
the Figaro on the day of the crime
of Mime. Caillaux. They told how she
waited and gave details of her en-
trance into the room occupied by
CASTOR Calmette and of their hear
ing shots.
One of the boys Adrien Meet,
crouched down on the witness stand
and uttered a series of low cries to
show how he had found M. Calmette
sheltering himself behind his desk.
Paul Bourget, the immortal" who
was with Calmette in his office at the
moment when Nine. Caillaux's card
was brought in, then told the jury
of the incident.
you will not see herr" I said.
IT cannot refuse to see woman"
