I thunderbolts hurled at him by Figaro, a powerful Paris paper, edited by tiastou Calmette. Kvery day editorials were published dealing with some phase of Caillunx's career. His personal, political and business ivfo was sought for finws. Paris rang with the gotrsip that Culmotto had in his bunds a d K'U ttwttt so gravely cwmptvnustMg tfcat even he hesitated to use it. On March 10, 1P14, Caillaux was m the senate lhattg liis hill prn-lig a tax on incomes, a measure respon sible for the majority of 'his enemies. Wlfo Shoots Editor. On tho vjimo afternoon Madanui Caillaux, simply dressed in hlack, en tered the offices of the Figaro to jee Calmette. Without a moment's lu-si-t:itiou she drew a revolver ami shot the editor to death. She was locked in prlsou on a mur der charge. Cuiiiuux resigned his post. His career seemed ended. War was closing iu on France, but scant attention was paid to wrb. politics. The whole topic of conver sation wbh the, Caillaux drama. she was Cailmm's second wifi. When she married Caillaux in 1011, Poineare, afterwards French presi dent, had acted as her witness at the civil ceremony. The trial was like one drama after another. There were enmiKh scs.i- ituus to provide material for a dozen novels. CiiUlHiix's evidence was 1 reality a speech for tho defense. Iu the course of it, looking at his wife, he nid of her: !

"I accuao uiysclf," be said dra matically, "of not having seen the ravages made in the heart of my wit by this terrible campaign and of not having noticed the effect upon my loving wife q( my threat with regal to Calmette." It developed during tho trial tlmt the letter were always carried by Calmette on his person and that one of the bullets that had taken his life had ploughed directly fhrougb them. On the ova of war hu was ac quitted of the charge. In Ii)J5 Caillaux was sent to South America on a government mission. HIh enemies whispered that ho waa pro (iermun. They whispered he hud beeo on friendly terms In South Ainericn with people hostile 10 France. He returned to Europe and paid a visit to Italy. It wns rumored ho had made defeatist talks in Jtomo.
