The police were well organized for

Former Premier and Twice

High Treason Verdict.
PANDEMONIUM IN
SENATE CHAMBER
(High Court to Reconvene and
Pronounce Sentence; Incar
ceration Pro'oable.
PARIS. April 22. (By The Associ
ated Press). Joseph Caillaux, former
premier of France, and twice minister
of finance, standa tonight convicted of
having placed his personal poltical am
bition during (he war higher than -the
interests of tho country that honored
him and gave him birth, Caillaux
while escaping conviction for high
treason was found to have been reck
lessly impudent and vory close to
treasonable ambitions, for such Is tho
Interpretation of the verdict of "guilty
of commerce and correspondence with
the enemy," which was rendered to
day against him by the French senate.
This is tho first verdict of the sort
rendered in any of the allied countries
since tho war began "commorco" as
interpreted by the senators who woro
the judges, not meaning financial
trading, but commerce by means of
common idoas, whilo "correspondence"
In this particular case is employed in
tho sense of association.
Senators Detormlncd to End Affair.
The senators entered Luxembourg
palace this afternoon determined to
finish the affair, which has taken up
iheir time during the past three
months. After (ho court had disposed
of the high treason charge and that of
"intelligence with the enemy" and had
declared Its own sovereignty in less
than four hours, word was passed that
n decision was Impondlng and Luxem
bourg gardens were filled to overflow
ing in the neighborhood of the palace
by dense crowds, and police reserves
had to bo called out.
The ballots followed one another
with great rapidity. The partisans of
tne formor premier woro thrilled with
oy and hope when the treason charge
was so promptly eliminated, confi
dently predicted acquittal and began
to apportion among themseh'03 tho
portfolios in the cabinet which Cail
laux was expected (0 form within six
months after his rolease.
When they attempted to have the
senate refrain from establishing itself
as tho highest constitutional author
ity, with power to find tho accused
not guilty, as charged, but guilty of a
lesser offense, their enthusiasm waned.
Deliberation Behind QJosed Doors.
The rioofs of the' deliberation cham
ber wore Closed, almost hermetically
scaled. Two ushers stood by each for
the purpose, apparently, of warding
off inquisitive newspapermen. But oc
casionally a dishevelled, perspiring
senator would rush out of the cham
ber and make a direct line for tho sen
ate bar, where ho was immediately
surrounded by correspondents offering
to purchaso for him the best vintages
in France If only he would talk.
Pandemonium Reigns.
At times the noise shouts and tho
ringing of bells heard within tho
chamber was simply deafening. It
seemed on several occasions as though
the deliberations might degenerate in
to a free-for-all fight. It was a stormy
scone, a jurors' room in a criminal
court building multiplied by twenty.
county, were found guilty by a jury to
day. In imposing fines of $100 each,
Judge C. W. Sessions blamed Prose
cuting Attorney Martin S. McDonough
for the fact that the respondents stood
convicted.
The Judge assorted that notoriety
given the Iron River fiasco was tho
most unfortunate fact in connection
with it. "A mountain has been made
out of a mole hill and there has he
foolish and boyish conduct on both
sides," he said.
Testimony during (he trial showed
McDonough was the adviser of the
Scalcucci brothers and that practical
ly everything thny did after state po
lice began action (0 seize their wine
was done under hiB direction.
Under cross-examination today John
Kcalcucci admitted a woooden parti
tion was built in the basement of th.e
store to conceal the wine upon Mc
Donough's advjee. Iron River officials
testified that McDonough ordered the
recapture of the wine from state
troopers, acting with L. J. Grove, chief
prohibition agent In the upper penin
sula of Michigan.
The legality of Grove's seizure of
tjio liquor was not decided by the jury
and the court did not rule whether or
not his action was legal. Federal ag
ents here Intimated that there was a
possibility that Major A. V. Dalrymplo
might press charges against McDon

lican, Kansas, retorted tho Democratic
osrpousal of a retro-active war profits
tax was designed solely "to catch
votes."
Meanwhile, the Republican members
of the ways and means committee had
agroed tentatively on four forms of
li'.xeo for raising $1,500,000,000 in the
next two years, while the sales tax
w.-.s accepted by these committeemen,
added opposition to it was said to have
developed, though Republican leaders
doubted whether it would bo eliminat
ed as a revenue-getting scheme. Tho
three other levies tentatively accepted
by the commit lee were a lax on all
stock exchange transactions equal to
tho amount of the brokers' commis
sion, an additional surtax on incomes,
probably In excess of $5,000 and tin in
crease of approximately 15 per cent

In the absence of a final agreement,
Republicans who had forced the call
of a party conference for tonight,
agreed in conference with the Repub
lican ways and means committeemen
to postpone it until April ,30, when
the complete majority program on sol-
Idler relief legislation is' expected to
'be available for discussion. Final ac
tion on the revenue plans, committee
men said, would bo taken this week.
Representative- Rainey, In bringing
up in the house the fight over the
moans of obtaining the money, charged
that "the Republican millionaire steer

by the war. His charge that the Re

buy the soldier vote was termed an

"Insult" by Rep. Campbell, Republican,

Mr. Campbell, Mr. Ralney said he
