by charging the accused men with hav-
ing conspired against the cxternal
safety of France by manGuvrcs and
Vaccinations with the enemy and by
aiding enemy enterprises.
Quotes CailIaux Document
NJ. Lescouvc during his presentation
of the case gave quotations from docu-
mcnts in M. Caillaux's handwriting
which were found in the safe of bank
in Florence. He said he did this to
show that Caillaux considered The
French press more responsible for tho
war than Germany. The prosecutor
said that Caillaux in April, 1916, be
lieved. the war was lost and that this
defendant always was more occupied
concerning the making of peace than
the winning of the war. The pro
gramme Caillaux had drawn UP Cor
France after peace would have meant
civil war, the prosecutor added.
NJ. Lescouve dealt at length with
Count Mnotto, son-in-law of Louis f
Swift, a Chicago packer. who is in
termed in the United States, but who
is alleged to have made a confession
concerning g plot engaged in by Gail
lauX, Count Won Luxburg, former Ger
man Minister to Argentina, and him
self to disrupt the Entente alliance
and bring about new war in which
the Tcutonic allies. with France, Italy
and Spain. would be arrayed against
Great Britain and Russia.
Gives Minotto's Biography
The prosecutor gave detailed hi
ography of Minotto and traced his re-
lations with Baron Won Seebcck, son
of a German officer, and Hugo Schmidt
western United States agent of the
Dcutschc Bank Of Berlin, both of whom
arc interned in the United States.
Conversations of Caillaux while in
italy also were freely gone into by
the prosecutor. Caillaux was quotcd
as having said in Italy that the war
could not last until the autumn of
1917, owing to Frances lack of raw
material for the manufacture of NUM-
tions and because of revolutions in
Algeria and Senegal.
