FIRST WIFE OF Nj. CAILLkUX
GIVES TESTIMONY AT
TRIAL OF SECOND
M A K ES CHARGES
Startling Evidence Is Given In
RECORD to Cruel Treatment
of Former Wife
(Bv Associated Press)

Paris. July 23.-Mme. Bertht Guey-
dan, Joseph CaillauX's first wife, a
slender woman with black eyes and
wasted cheeks today faced her former
husband, the ex-premier Of France
and put upon the rack the woman
who had won him from her-Mme.
Henriette Catllaux. now on trial
charged with the murder OF CASTOR
Calmette.
Nine. Gueydan was expected TO tell
or her part In the publication in the
Figaro Of the now celebrated "Thy
joe letter, but she declared she knew
nothing about II and affirmed that she
had told Calmette nothing.
The emotional climax Of the trial
was reached when other private let
ters were handed over over by Nine.
Gueydan to Fernand Labori, counsel
for Nine, Caillaux.
Here is the packet of letters I
took at Manners" said Nine. Guyedan.
giving them TO en- attendant who
passed them to NJ. Labori. II will
consider with Maitre Chenu what
shall be done." said M. Labori. but
whatever we decide the jury must rest
assured that they will be apprised of
duty to expect"
Among them." added Nine. Guey-
dan. "are two letters referred to as
private letters."
Nine. Gueydan left the box. Her
remarkable personality had complete
ly dominated the whole procedure.
For three hours~she spoke and her
voice carried to the remotest corner
of the room.
In that time she laid bare many
Of the secrets Of her life with Id. Call
laux. She told OF his liason and of
his throwing himself at her knees to
ask her pardon. She described her
methods Of iefnnRe against what she
termed the "Machiavellian Maneuvers
of an unfaithful husband" She tes-
titled that he even threatened her
life.
Then she left him, hoping he would
follow her. but he did not, and she
added with flash of her eyes and q
tightening of her lips:
"You know why"
She gained the sympathy OF those
in the court room with telling phrases,
There were murmurs Of applause de-
spite the admonitory rapping Of the
Judge and threats to clear the court.
M. 'Caillaux returning to the bar,
said:
IN. Labori was right in thanking
Nine. Gueydan for the letters. The
calumny does not come from us, but
persons who used methods against us
never used against others. But that
Is diversion. I return to that poor
woman there" pointing with dramatic
gesture at the dock where Nine. Call
laux sat. shaking with emotion.
with all my strength I,will defend
her. I ought to be beside her; moth
ing shall separate uB."
AS her husband was speaking the
prisoners convulsive sobbing could be
heard. M. Caillaux went on with wild
gesture to depict the years which had
preceded his marriage to her. II
made but one mistake" he said, turn
ing to Nine. Gueydan, ''that was mar
rying you"
Monsieur Caillaux, you are disgrace
ing yourself" responded Nine. Guey,
dan calmly.
"No. am not disgracing myself.
Our characters were so opposed that

common life was impossible My
dignity forbade me to live any longer
with you"
This sharp passage provoked an up
roar.
Let mo finish: shouted NJ. Call
laux. "YOu did not want divorce
Nevertheless. whatever wrongs were
on my side were handsomely compen-
stated for. gave you $4,000 francs
atlmony. You had not Il centime when
l married you; gave you 100000
francs"
A chorus of gronns greeted these re-
marks. Caillanx whirled around and
began addressing the court room. He
was called to order by the Judge but
continued to recltc the circumstances
of his divorce.
Both he and Nine. Caillaux believed.
he said, that the "Thy Joe" letter
formed one of trilogy and that its
publication would be followed by the
publication Of the other two.
"Gentlemen"-He turned to the iury
- am profoundly unhappy man.
l mad been profoundly happy man
since my second marriage Nine
Caillaux's sobs at this stage redoubled
and BECAME painful to hear
Are you going" asked M. CaiIlaux
or Nine Gueydan, ito force us to
trumpet forth in this place all those
Things that We avoided at the time of
the divorce?"
Nine. Gueydan did not reply.
nj. Caillaux left the stand. "What-
ever you may have done + forgive
you. and salute you. said he, bowing
low as he passed her.
The court hummed with expectation
when ex-premier Jean Louis Rarthou
took the stand. After he had recorded
his high position Of the integrity and
patriotism OF CASTOR Calmette he de-
MED ever having told M. Caillaux that
Nine. Gueydan showed him two let
ters. He tol4 OF steps taken at the
request OF the Premier Doumergue. to
stop M. Calmette from publishing q
number OF documents. notably the
Fabre report. Calmette at first re-.
fused to listen to him, but NJ BRAND,
the former minister of justice, then
Joined him in his insistence. "If I
do not publish the Fabre report" said
M. Calmette to me-" Barthou contin-
ued." have nothing more; my cam
paign is over"
a. Caillaux then confronted him
and the two ex-premiers stood at the
bar. Barthou reaffirmed that he had
never said Nine. Gueydan had showed
him the letters. Caillaux was equally
positive that that he had.
Finally, NJ. Labor ended the inci-
dent by saying:
There can be no question OF the
good faith Of both you gentlmen, but
your minds could not have been wokr-
Ing the same way that day"
