ON JOSEPH CAILLAUx

Paris, July 23.-Raymond Poincare
broke all precedents by giving his tes-
timony at murder trial. He did it
laux, slayer of CASTOR Calmette, editor
of Figaro. The president is now visit
ing the car of Russia, so he sent his
deposition. which supports the conten-
ton OF the defense that M. Caillaux
was really to blame for the killing OF
Calmette.
The trial was that Of Madame Call
laux, who slew CASTOR Calmette, editor
of the Figaro, in his Office on March
16, and the president is Raymond
Poincare. who. though now on a visit
to the car of Russia, sent In his de-
position to the court to assist the de-
tense in its contention that Madame
Caillaux's husband was really the pro
moter of the tragedy.
II shall kill CASTOR Calmette IL he
publishes those private letters in LIE
Figaro!"
So declared to the president OF the
republic, Joseph Caillaux, his minister
of finance, just before the murder. And
the presidents testimony went all to
prove that Caillaux's wife simply an
ticipated his own hand as the author
of the tragedy.
President Poincares testimony,
flung in dramatically between the evil
denee of several witnesses for the
prosecution, gave Madame Caillaux
her only hope of the day. For when
her husband had testified to the same
effect as Poincare he was hooted and
nearly mobbed by an angry rabble
without the doors of the court.
Other witnesses directly contrs iict-
ed Madame Caillaux's testimony when
she said she was "bereft of mind" as
she fired the shot And Paul Bourget,

"She stood in front of the fallen man

PROBE or ROCK

JOSEPH w. FOLK IN CHARGE
Inquiry May Uncover Only the Com

Other Properties-Plans Of the
New Haven Directors.

New York, July 24.-Next on the
list of railroads to be Investigated by

commissions investigation Of the New
York. New Haven & Hartford, is ex-
pected to appear at the offices of the
company. Ia Wall street, next week
with corps of expert accountants to
make preliminary examination OF
the company's accounts.
A director of the Rock Island de-
clared that the company would well
come an investigation by the interstate
commerce commissioners. He said an
investigation would only bring to light
mistakes made by the Rock Island in
its investments In other properties.
such as the loss of about $15,000,000 in
the acquisition and disposition. of the
st. Louis & San Francisco; the loss of
about $6,000,000 in the purchase and
sale of the Chicago & Alton, and about
100000 loss in the purchase of coal
properties. These things are common
knowledge to financial interests.
New Haven directors will fight to a
finish the effort of the United States
government to force them to part with
the control of the Boston & Maine
stock on the basis demanded by the
Massachusetts, legislature, namely,
that each certificate shall bear stamp
stating that the state has the right at
any time to buy the stock "at the fair
value thereof RI accordance with law"
There will be no effort on the part Of
the New Haven directors, it was said,
to prevent the government going ahead
with the dissolution suit ordered by
President Wilson, and there is no In
tention of negotiations for consent
decree" which would prevent long liti-
cation.
Washington, July Ex-senator Nor
ris of Nebraska. originator of the New
Haven inquiry, introduced bill In

code of ethics which the public should
require of railroad directors. Jail SEN
fences for selfish advice to subordi-

Norris would provide that whenever
a railroad official or director either re-
quests, directs or advises the conceal
ment from the stockholders or the In
terstate commerce commission of any
item of expense approved by the direc-
tors. they shall serve time in Jail. Sim
liar penalties are imposed where stock
of property In another company Is
purchased without the definite ap-
nroyal of the interstate commerce
commission.
