CAILLAUX'S SPURNED FIRST WIFE ZEALOUS TO PROSECUTE RIVAL Bares Life's History to Convict Woman Replacing Her : in Premier's Affection and

H PARIS, July 23. Madame Gueydan, divorced wife of Joseph Calllaux, this afternoon suddenly became the central figure and the storm center in the nt UanrlatfA aIDaut for the IQUrder of Gaston Calmette, editor of Le Figaro. The court room where the wife of the former French premier and minister of finance is on trial became a theater, in real life with scenes so intensely dramatic that the spectators were swept away by them. When Madame Gueydan took the witness stand she faced the woman who had succeeded her in the heart of Caillaux and the incidents which followed were replete with sensational thrills. Bares Life's History. Madame Gueydan told the complete story of her life, beginning with her girlhood and continuing down to the present day. "They are trying to make me out a baseless woman, shouted the witness. "But they will never succeed. I have all kinds of documents to prove my words are true. ' "My married life was the happiest until this woman appeared." Here the witness shook a menacing fist in the direction of the defendant. The witness then took a bundle of letters from her dress, they were tied with a lavender ribbon which Madame Gueydan untied with trembling fingers. She had no sooner started to read one of the letters when Fernard Labori, chief of counsel for the defendant, was upon his feet objecting and protesting. Judge Alvanel finally ruled that the letters should be read first by himself and his associates to determine whether or not the jury should hear the contents. Plan Monarchy. Seizing upon the opportunity afforded by the public clamor against Joseph Calllaux, husband of the defendant and ex-premier, the royalist organizations are preparing for a coup d'etat, hoping to overthrow the republic and re-establish the monarchy. Agents of the government have secured full details of the conspiracy and It is believed that the royalists will be unable to carry it to a successful culmination, but every possible precaution is being taken. It is well understood that the president and premier timed their state visit to Russia in order to be away from Paris during the Caillaux trial. They knew that Caillaux would be the storm center of the trial and that political affairs would be injected, but anticipated only In a measure the great storm that has arisen. CIVIL STRIFE FEAR People Swarm Streets About Royal Palace Cheering Premier Asquith. BY HERBERT TEMPLE. LONDON, July 23 Fears of civil war in Ireland in the exclusion of Ulster province from the operations of the home rule bill loomed larger in public mind today as the second session of King George's peace parley got under way at Buckingham palace. The streets about the palace were filled with people, and Premier Abauith and David Llovd George, the chancellor of the exchequer, were loud- j ly cheered when they appeared. The speech delivered by the king at the opening of the round-table conference tended to increase rather than diminish the political gloom. Both the Irish Nationalists and the Ulster covenanters are in an ugly and apparently unyielding frame of mind, the former insisting upon the original program of the government as regards home rule for Ireland; the latter standing for the absolute exclusion of the counties of Ulster, with civil war as the alternative. ARRANGE AMISTICE . MEXICO CITY. July 23. An announcement by Governor Iturbide, of the Federal district, that an armistice had been effected between the Constitutionalists and the government and that the Zapatista troops had been overwhelmingly defeated by Federals around Ohimiloo, served to relieve the tension here today. With the Zapatistas in retreat beyond Milpa Alta, peace negotiations are expected to proceed rapidly. President Carbajal has informed the Brazilian minister that he is willing to defer to General Carranza's wishes, insofar as compatible with dignity. CROPS NEED RAIN GARY, Ind., July 23. Crops in this section of the state are badly in need of rain, but the grain can stand several more days of drought without serious consequence. Corn is beginning to show the effects of the heat. Wheat is averaging thirty bushels to the acre in Lake county, as against twenty last year. THREE MEN DROWN CLEVELAND,July 23 Two men and a boy were drowned off Gordon park at noon today when a boat overturned in a sudden squall. The same storm capsized a row boat off Bratenhal, a suburb occupied by millionaires and several persons were thrown into the water. They were rescued by a motor boat. CHARGES PROVOKE A charge of provoke has been filed against Robert Sewell by Alfred Underbill in the court of Justice S. B. Morgan. The date of trial will be August 25. It is understood the charge resulted over a discussion of witness fees in a damage suit against Underbill tried recently in the Henry coun-

HOW HARRY THAW ; SPENDS HOT DAYS

Matteawan Fugitive Whips Streams for Trout in Isolated Village of the White Mountains. GORHAM. N.H., July 23. This summer resort town, set in the midst of the beautiful White mountains, about ten miles from the highest peak, Washington, is proving a blissful temporary refuge to Harry Kendall Thaw, slayer of Stanford White. Automobiling, whipping the many good trout streams, conversing courteously with all who seek his acquaint ance, and doing a large amount of work in offices he has established in the Noyes building, Thaw is having the happiest summer in many a year of his troubled career. It ia a quiet sort of life. The surroundings are peaceful and idyllic. Thaw has come and gone about the villege so much that the in-. habitants are no longer roused to great curiosity by his rather sloven figure. Habits are Excellent. Thaw's habits are excellent. Dr. Austin Flint and William Travers Jerome, Thaw's "Nemesis," will be remembered, have often contended that with a single drink of champaign Thaw might become a raving maniac and kill some one. Well, however that may be, Thaw doesn't give the single draft of fizzwater a chance to show what it can do. He is a teetotaler. He never frequents the bars of the village hotels, and no liquor is seen to enter his room. He smokes cigars and that is all. He is distinctly on his good behavior, and others stopping at the Mount Madison House, where he has a suite of four rooms, find it difficult to realize that the spectacled middle-aged man with bulging eyes and hair shot with gray, is the celebrated Matteawan captive. In the suite with Thaw live Deputy Sheriff C. D. Stevens, his guard, and H. J. Rice, his-secretary. Stevens is asistant to Sheriff Holman Drew, who lives in the near-by town of Berlin and who takes turns with Stevens in guarding the prisoner. There are those who believe Thaw would find it easy to escape. Thaw has just purchased a five-passenger touring car.' The Canadian border is not far. But Thaw has shown no inclination to take French leave. This was indi cated conclusively by the incident of the fishing trip when he became lost. He and Stevens struck in at different points on Nineteen Mile Brook and missed each other. At 8:30 o'clock in the evening the deputy sheriff called up the hotel. There was some ex citement, and a search party was or ganized. Secretary Rice was the leader. With the aid of lanterns Thaw was found about 2 o'clock in the morning. He was seated philosophically' on a rock in the middle of the stream, per fectly calm, though a trifle wet and hungry. With great good sense, when he realized that he was lost, he had concluded the thing to do was to wait for some one to come to him. He could have covered a good many miles toward liberty in the hours between 10 in the morning and the time he was located if he had pleased to do so. Apparently he is convinced that the courts soon will set him free, and that there is nothing to do except to wait and watch. CYCLE HITS BOY WOUNDING LEG Arthur Wessel, 14, son of Chris Wessel, three miles west of the city, was struck by a motorcycle Wednesday afternoon and was cut severely on the leg. He was carrying water for the gang working on the street car line west of the city when the motorcycle came by. The name of the motorcyclist is not known. The gash in the boy's leg was so deep that it required twelve stitches. COLLECT TAXES ON BEESON LAND The only estate on which tax has been paid during the past quarter un der the provisions of the state inheritance tax law is that of the late Mar quis Beeson, who died November 12, 1913. The tax amounted to 3321.22. The estate of the late Moses Myers was entered for taxation today. It is valued at $35,488.43 and the tax will amount to $152.02. John C. Dodson is executor of the estate. There were twelve beneficiaries who were taxed under the inheritance law. ''SENT FOR "CUSSING." LOS ANGELES, July 23. Walter Johnson was sentenced to serve six months in jail for using profane language when it was shown that much of the "cussing" had been done in the presence OTCbUOren.

'SEIDEL REFUSES TO ACCEPT HIGHEST PENAL FARM HONOR

It was learned today that Mr. Shideler of Marion was named president of the board of trustees of the Indiana penal farm only because George Seidel of this city flatly refused to accept that office. He also refused to accept the secretaryship, saying that he was not in the position to take such active interest in the institution as either of these two offices would require of him. He was then elected vice pristdent. All his fellow trustees were anxious to honor him with election either as president or as secretary because of the active part played by Mr. Seidel and other members of the Richmond Commercial club in securing the passage of the penal farm law. Mr,. Seidel said today that the penal farm would be conducted on the honor system, the inmates being quartered the same as farm hands in comfortable homes, conspicuous by the absence of iron doors and barred windows. He also said the guards would not carry arms. "There probably will be a few cells where the unruly prisoners will be confined for punishment," said Mr. Seidel. "If a man escapes and returns to his home he will be arrested and returned to the farm. If he feels from the state, no tears will be shed. We want the inmates of the home to be trated kindly, and every effort made to effect their reformation. - At the present time no superintendent has been selected. Much care will have to be taken to fill this important post. ! I also anticipate that it will be neces- j sary to ask the legislature for an add! tional appropriation next year. VACANCIES III NAVY NEEDED OF 11 PLUCKING BOARD II BY JONATHAN WIN FIELD. WASHINGTON, July 23 Just now when the so-called "plucking board" of the navy is the target for criticism, a brief sketch of the work of the board may be in place. Sir Roger De Coverley's famous verdict, "Much may be said on both sides" might be fittingly used in judging the merits of this system of providing room for promotions in the various grades of the navy. ' The "plucking board" is the outgrowth of more than thirty years of experiment. During that time many devices were used to guard against stagnation in the lower ranks of the navy, and while it is admitted that the present system is very far from ideal, it is nevertheless the most efficient that has yet been put into effect. Tt at least accomplishes one thing. It provides vacancies. But sometimes at a tremendous cost, in valuable men to the navy. Need Forty Openings. Every year there are more men graduated from the Naval academy than the vacancies which naturally oc cur can provide for. It has been ob served that aside from the vacancies caused by deaths and resignations for ty openings must be made to take care of these men. The idea of the "plucking board" in its present form originated during the last years of the Roosevelt administration. President Roosevelt believed in giving the younger men of the navy a chance. The board, which is composed of five rear admirals, is immune from "plucking." The grades subject to the findings of the board are those of lieutenant, lieutenant commander, commander and captain. The chief factor upon which its findings are based is that of adaptability of the officer for naval service. En emies of this method of elimination make It the main target for their criticism. They allege in attempting to weigh such an elusive quality in man, there is great room for "paying off old scores" and "squaring" petty Jealousies and that it often results in gross injustice and frequently robs the service of capable officers. Fight Human Equation. The question of a man's usefulness, it is asserted, should be decided while the man is in the Naval academy and not when he has received his commission or after years of active and efficient service. In the final analysis, they declare, popularity with his fellow officers is the main consideration taken into account by the board; If a man is a "good fellow1' his job is safe, but if he has been so unfortunate as to have incurred the enmity of a member of the board or some influential officer, he is plucked, that is, forced to retire. Unlike most adverse critics, the opponents of the "plucking board" along with their criticisms, offer a substitute, which is beginning to find favor in official circles. They propose to create a new grade in the navy that of vice admiral, and claim that the changes resulting therefrom wouM eliminate the necessity for plucking. At present the fleets and divisions are apportional to the rear admirals, and the command of the first-class battleships given to captains. Under the proposed plan, the command . of the fleets would be turned over to six vice admirals, each battleship under the command of a rear admiral, and the captains assigned to the cruisers. Such a system it is claimed, will take care of the question of promotions each year, by relieving the surplus number in the top grades of the navy. Glimpses of .

Extensive military preparations being made by the war department are causing uneasiness here in view of predictions made after General Huerta's resignation that the government soon would be turned over to the Constitutionalists. While government officials refused to give an explanation, a rumor is out that a deadlock has developed in the negotiations between agents of Provisional President Carbajal and General Carranza that may preclude a peaceful solution. President Carbajal is standing firm in his demand that amnesty shall be granted Mexicans who supported Huer ta. In this he is believed to have the support of the diplomats who induced Huerta to resign. General Medina Barren, who was de feated by Villa at Zacatecas, has been summoned to the capital, and General Navarette has been appointed commissioner to France to purchase arms. The officers and troops who accom panied General Huerta to Puerto Mexi co have been recalled to their duties. STANDARD OFFICERS FACE IMPRISONMENT JERSEY CITY, July 23.
