of Secretary Lansing's cable mes
sages on the subject of the Gail
laux-L uxburg relations.
The report regarding the con-
tents of the safe vary in every
newspaper. Humanitie says the
documents include a sketch of a
concordat between France and the
Vatican drawn up by President
Poincaire himself> and documents
on the relation between Premier
Clemeneeau and Cornelius Herr,
which latter would probably have
reference to the Panama scandals.
There were also, according to this
newspaper, a letter from M. Gle
menceau to Camille Barrere, French
ambassador to Italy, and a docu-
ment of Tomasso Tittoni, FORMER
Italian ambassador to France.
Madame Caillaux is quoted by
Humanitie as saying the contents
also included $4,000 francs, of
which 10000 francs were in gold,
as well as jewels, among them a
diadem and a diamond necklace.
The document which caused the
arrest Of M. Caillaux, according to
Temps, shows that he had been di-
rectly or indirectly in communica-
ton with a representative of an
enemy power.
The newspaper adds that Count
Won Luxburg, the then German min
lister to Argentina, warned his gov
eminent that the praise Caillaux
was receiving in the German press
was compromising Caillaux and
asks that Caillaux be not spoken
of in praise-worthY manner.
"This Dispatch" says the news
paper, "was not sent directly from
Argentina to Germany, but to
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador at Washington, who
sent it to Berlin via Sweden"
The Temps says it understands
that the document from the United
States viii add materially to the
above statements.

Florence, which was rented under
the maiden name of Madame Call
laux and used by the former
Premier during his visit to Italy in
December, 1916. Among the politi-
cal papers found in the safe, the
newspaper asserts, were a number
of notes in which M. Caillauy, in the
expectations of gaining Office as
Premier, drafted a cabinet, desig-
mated a generalissimo and sketched
various Exceptional measures.
These measures included the arrest
of certain politicians and generals,
among whom Premier Clemenceau
is said to have been one, and the
dismissal of a number of officials.
In addition to these, says the
Matin, there were documents of a
military character which by theft
very nature seem to constitute the
strongest evidence against NJ
Caillaux.
Public interest in the Caillaux
case is concentrated upon two
points-the contents of the safe in

brought into the Caillaux case ow-
ing to remarks made by Won der
Lancken to a neutral diplomat in
Brussels some time ago with refer
ence to the settlement of the Agidir,
Morocco, controversy.
Won der Lancken is reported to
have referred to Caillaux as a
staunch friend Of Germany and to
have used laudatory remarks which
threw new light on M. Caillaux's
activities in the Moroccan affair.
Permission will be requested from
the government of the neutral dip
lomats to permit the conversation
between him and Won der Lancken
to be recorded in the Caillaux
document.
An. official of the court martial
which is investigating the Caillaux
affair said that the telegram of
Secretary of State Lansing giving
information concerning Caillaux's
activities in Argentina was strictly
instrumental, but not the essential
factor in causing the arrest of
Caillaux.
