Hundreds of Tacomans hiked
for mud flats and upland today
with the opening of the hunting
season. At the first peep of the
sun, 500 this morning, the Off
cial season on water fowl, deer
and upland birds was. opened.
Birds are reported plentiful in
the vicinity of Tacoma, and there
are lots of deer, mountain goat
and bear in the Cascades and
Olympics.
Hunting is to be more popular
than ever before, If one can judge
by the number of cartridges and
shotgun shells sold during the
past two weeks. Up to this time
the Tacoma police have held an
embargo on the sale of firearms
or ammunition, because Of the
war. No person could make
purchase without a written per-
NIT from police headquarters.
With the coming of the hunt
ing season, the stream of appli-
cants at police headquarters be-
came greater each day, until it
kept one officer busy all the time.
Finally II was decided to lift the
embargo on ammunition for a
few weeks, but permits must still
be obtained for firearms.
The first accident of the hunt
ing season occurred near Roy
yesterday when Leo Malay, age
23, who was out for practice on
the day before the season opened,
shot off two fingers of his left
hand. He was brought to st. JO-
seph's hospital.

The right kind of duck
weather is the wrong kind for
any other hunting or outdoor
activity. Pick a stormy day

and you will find them on the
move.
In hunting on lakes or
shore where there is plenty of
wild grass, bullrush or cat
tails, the problem of material
for blind is solved. II not

Paris.-A resolution was adopted
in the chamber of deputies Saturday
depriving Former Premier Joseph
Caillaux of parliamentary immunity
in the accusations against him for al
legged reasonable dealings with the
enemy. The vote on the resolution
was AIT to 2.
A similar resolution in regard to
Deputy Louis Loustalot was adopted
with a show of hands by the cham
Der.
Replies to Findings
M. Caillaux entered carrying
bundle of letters and documents.
Deputy Loustalot was next heard,
reading a brief declaration in a trem-
ulous voice, expressing his indigna-
ton at being accused of completely
in reasonable transactions. Mr.. Gail
laux then rose.
81 will reply to the accusations of
which l am the object he said, with
as much reserve and as much self
control as possible"
81 am not accused of betraying my
country for money, no. but for am
bition," the former premier continued,
and then declared with emphasis:
Never have / tried, directly or in
directly to come into contact with
our enemies. Never have | used sub
terranean paths to succeed in a for
eign policy / have always to the full
measure of my powers served my
country. The only reproach any one
could make to me is that l have been
too reserved"
Denies Sending BoIo Pasha
The chamber listened in absolute
silence while M. Caillaux reviewed
his relationships which have been re-
garded by his accusers as suspicious.
He denied having sent Bolo Pasha
abroad or that he had anything to do
with Bolos seeking funds in the
United States to buy the Journal.
AS for the Bonnet Rouge, that was
political affair, he asserted, and
then entered into further explana-
tons. In regard to the foreign office
documents bearing on his visit to
Rome, ex-Premier Caillaux said:
THAT was altogether a question of
policy. One must remember that GER
tain of our ambassadors frequent cir.
cles of high aristocracy, and all high
artistocracies are not entirely on the
side of the allies"
M Caillaux declared that he had
been isolated during the war and has
been the object of persecution and
that the present action was the re.
suit of conspiracy among persons
who were adverse to his policy before
the war and afraid he would continue
1t after the war. 1t was not true, he
asserted, that he had favored an al
lance with Germany before the war
