Mr. Vidal, editor-in-chief of the anarchist newspaper Le Libertaire, was heard yesterday by Mr. Councilor Laugier on the visits that the young Philippe Daudet allegedly made to this newspaper.
Mr. Vidal confirmed his previous statement. It was not on his instructions that Mr. Philippe Daudet went to see Mr. Le Flaoutter. He was completely unaware of the relations that could have existed between Germaine Berton and Philippe Daudet; however, he does not believe them to be improbable.
