PARIS. Jan Is CSpeciaD.-The one
big topic in official circles in France
today Is the fate Of ex-Premier Joseph
Caillauy and General Sarrail- There
are those in authority who see death
ahead for both of these lately es-
teemed men II was predicted when
the -rOld Fger." Georges Clemenceau,
was made premier thar little time
would elapse before Calliaux was
brought to book
Already Caillaux has been slated
to stand trial for his life Gen Maurice
Sarrail is back in France. recalled
from SalOnica, and he, too. may face
a similar tribunal Paris believes his
official head viii come off at least
and possibly his physical head
When ex-Premier CaillaUx. through
his close cOnfidant, Louis Malvy.
minister OF the interior and member
OF the war council. was a power. he
almost succeeded in carrying through
a scheme 10 bring back General Sar-
rail and invest him. like Joffre. with
the rank of a marshal of France
preparatory to imposing him upon
the allies as commander in chief OF
all the entente forces in France.
Started With MaIvy Trial
Clemenceau last month undertook
to form an administration. with the
avOwed purpose of calling to account
and Of bringing TO trial Louis Malyy,
prOfligate and gambler-he used to
lose as much as 1000 francs in a
night at pOker-for all the treason
able and dishonest acts OF which he
had rendered himself guilty while
forming part and parcel of the vari-
Gus cabinets that had succeeded one
another since the year before the
war. Then it was predicted Joseph
Caillaux would also be brought TO
the bar of justice. and that General
Sarrsil would be recalled from
SalOnica, but without receiving any
other command or promotion.
Orders for Caillaux's trial were
given by General DubaIl. the military
governor of Paris
1t may be regarded as a singular
conjunction Of events tina. Sarrairs
return to his native lard should take
place at the very same time as the
reported success of Russian Boil
shevih plot against King Ferdinand
OF Rumania.
The responsibility of the invasion
OF Rumania and for all the appalling
suffering which it has been called
upon to endure at the hands of the
Germans. of the Austrians. and espe-
eially OF the Bulgarians. has been laid
at the door Of Sarrail
The charges against Sarrail hang
together with those brought against
Joseph Caillaux. Louis Malvy. BOlo
~Pasha." and all the remainder of
the unsavOry crew. some of whom
are under lock and key. two or three
OF whom are dead. under mysterious
circumstances. while the others are
fugitives from justice.
Editor Exposes Scandal .
Indeed. had il not been for the
NigO and BOlo scandal. vigOrously
and periodically exploited by Leon
Daudet- we might never have heard
the true story Of the betrayal of Ru-
mania. and Of the nefariOus prO-Ger-
man. suti-French. authenticate. and.
therefore. anti-American. intrisues
Of eU-Premier Caillaux and of for
mer Minister Of the Interior Malvy-
Navy was compelled to resign
from the cabinet owing TO the per
sistency OF the attacks brought
against him day by day in the Paris
Action Franchise, edited and owned
BY Leon Daudet
Finally, Daudet addressed an Of
eial letter TO the president Of the
republic and a copy thereof TO Pre-
mier Painleve. directly charging Nal
" with high treason and offering to
furnish the proofs This letter was
read in the chamber Of deputies. Nal
