had on his wife and on her peculiar
nervous temperament. He declared
that it almost drove her frantic to see
in cold print given out to the whole
world the sacred sentiments which
she had expressed to him and he to
her. The witness particularly dwelt
upon the seriousness of the offense
, e iai t that he was a married
man at the time.
t , . the famous Frenchman
almost broke down when speaking
about his wife's great affection for
him and the suffering which she un
derwent when the letter made her the j
talk of Paris. He continued to the
end of the story, however, quietly and
finished up in about the same tone in
which he opened his testimony.
Then came an event which is al
most unprecedented in the courts of
; .jq t..v of France. This was the read
ing of a deposition of the president of
France himself. President Poincare !
is at present visiting the czar of Rus
sia and was unable to be present to j
give evidence in person but his depo- i
sit ion hail been taken before he left
France and was read in court. The
chief statement in the deposition of j
Monsieur Poincare was that C aillaux
himself had come to him excitedly
after the publication of the first let
ter and had cried out that he would
kill the editor of Figaro if he publish
ed another.
the trial proceeds it is evident
that it is regarded as the most im
portant murder trial that ever took
place in Europe in modern times, if it
is not actually the most talked of in
the whole world. Newspapers from
all parts of the globe, if they are im
portant enough ami rich enough, have
correspondents but these correspon
dents are mostly men " ho represent
great press associatiors as it was
found inconvenient to permit all the
newspapers to have special correspon
dents. The number of these corre
spondents present is 140. There are
also present a score of the most noted
artists of Europe. The remainder of
the space is given to spectators by
ticket.
Madame Caillaux is reported to bo
bearing up well under the frightful
nervous strain but many believe that
if her nervous system is as bad as her
husband says it is she may meet with
some severe suffering Oefore the trial
is over.

DIPLOMAT RECALITD
CHRISTIANIA, Norway, July 22—A tremendous up
roar is being made all over Norway today against Secre
tary Gunther of the United States legation. All the news
papers of this city have come out with the demand that he
be recalled by his government as they believe he has in
sulted Norway by his conduct. The cause of the demand
is that Gunther assaulted the harbor master of this port.
The harbor master is one of the highest police officials in
Norway and the people are incensed by what they call the
American’s brutal conduct. The assault occurred when
the harbor master asked Gunther to move his yacht from
a point in the harbor to another place. Gunther did not
w ish to do so but the official was insistent and he states
that the United States secretary of legation struck him.
No official notice has been taken of the affair so far by;
the Norwegian government hut it is assumed that it is be
ing investigated quietly with a view to having the proper
representations made to the government at Washington.
The recall of Gunther is regarded as certain.j
The road commission has authoriz
ed the replacing of bridges in the
Fairbanks district which were carried
out with the ice in tnc spring.
