JOSEPH CAILLAUX.

JOSEPH CAILLAUX.
bullet with which his wife killed Gas.
ton Calmette March 16, 1914.
CaillauX's words, very good the
French equivalent for hear. hear
were the first he has uttered publicly
in the chamber since the murder of
the editor of the great French news
paper Figaro. They were used to sig
nifty approval of the eulogy being de-
livered by Aristide BRAND, the new
premier. Many other deputies gave
vent to similar expressions of salts
faction during NJ. Brands speech. but
except Caillaux none was deemed
worthy of individual mention in the
stenographic record of the debate.
In singing out the laudatory excla-
nation of NJ Caillaux the official
stenographer proved his news sense,
and few French newspapers refrained
from commenting upon the fact. Be-
tween the lines of the press comments
aroused by the public re-entry into the
political arena of this one time prime
minister Of France. And in the lObbieS
of the Palais Bourbon the deputies, ac
cording to their political lights, de-
nounced the gloritied Cailaux's brief
utterance. None of them. however,
denied it's sensational significance. al
though none knew exactly what it did
signify.
Caillaux, who from having been the
most powerful figure in French politics
became, after Nine CaillauXs crime.
the most execrated man in France. is
the dark horse of the present situa
ton He is so dark. in fact that not
even those faithful followers who
stuck to him through thick and thin
really know what he is driving at.
They are sure. however, that he has Il
definite plan. and Of that his manifold
enemies are also aware.
Aside from the fact that his person
ality is such that whatever he says
finds an audience. CaillauX's approval
of the new premier's complimentary
references to the Socialistic groups at
tracted attention because since the
death Of Jean Jaures he is the logical
leader of the Left His words smote the
ears of his fellow deputies above the
clamorous Interruptions of the Right
in such way that there fitted swiftly
about the chamber the question. SIS
L. <boA
The correct answer to that question
may have q very vital and farreaching
effect upon the present war. Were
CaillauX to attain the position among
the Radical and Socialist elements of
which he was deprived by his wife's
ministry of which he cid not approve
would be insecure indeed. for without
the support Of the Left no ministry
could long remain in power And there
are few who would deny that the Left
nowadays has no leaders of the .IaureS
stamp-unless it be Caillaux. That's
why "Is he coming back?" has become
in the last few days Il universal sub
ject for whispered debate in the lob
bies of the Palais Bourbon
Although the two words spoken by
CaillauX at the first appearance of the
BRAND ministry before the chamber
formed the first definite demonstration
of his presence on the political stage,
his progress toward the spot light has
been gradual. albeit unnoticed by any
except the closest observers

something out Of the ordinary in a
