DAZZLING CAsTELLANE FETEs.
Nothing So Splendid in Paris Since
the Last Empire.
Chicago Inter Ocean)


Paris.-The Castelianes have opened
and will close the week, which ends
the Paris season, by two fetes which
will go on record as the most magnifl-
cent affairs since the downfall of the
last. French emperor. Last Sunday at
Auteuil they gave steeple chase and
at night a reception, with orchestral and
vocal music, and dancers, all the per-
formers being expensive stars.
The court of honor of the mansion
was Illuminated with incandescent
bulbs, concealed among the bushes and
banks Of flowers. A French orchestra
downstairs and Hungarian orchestra
on the second floor gallery played al
ternately. The guests were Of the most
exclusive aristocrats. At 10 p. m the
vaudeville concert, no act Of which cost
less than $500, began in the ball room.
At midnight the concert ended and
the company passed out to the dining
room, where supper was served. The
arrangements were superb. Here a
delightful surprise awaited the guests,
in the shape Of a marble basin, from
which q sheet Of water twenty feet
wide fell into a larger one on the floor.
The whole arrangement was trimmed
with plants and flowers, and elected
expressions Of admiration from all the
guests.
Tomorrow afternoon Sunday after
the races, the CaStellaneS viii give a
garden party on the polo grounds in the
Bots de Boulogne, and at night their
mansion in the Avenue Malakoff will
be thrown open for another fete, in
tended to eclipse that of last Sunday
and to wind up the Paris season in a
burst Of glory. Only three Americans
outside the en- bassy attaches were rec
Ognized by the CastellaneS on their in
vitations. They were Mrs. Henry
Drake. Mrs William Moore and the
Countess de COetlOgon. None of the
American embassy, though invited, at

WOULD KILL THE UNION.
San Francisco Butchers Make De-
mands On Restaurants


San Francisco, July 3.-The refusal of
the Jobbing and Retail Butchers asso-
citation to furnish meat to those res

promises to provoke the labor unions OF
the city TO united action. The officers
of the Cooks and Walters Alliance and
the Labor Council have been frequently
IN council during the past few days,
and it is limited that a general boycott
VIII be placed upon the butchers insti-
eating the present scheme of OppOsi-
ton. A special fight is also threatened
against the restaurant keepers who are
most pronounced in their opposition to
the union.
The Labor Council has been asked to
take the matter up at its meeting next
Friday when some action may be
token. The order OF the butchers went
into effect yesterday. Several restaur-
ant keepers purchased large quantities
Of meat before that hour. and were in
position to carry on their business
today without consulting the butchers
However, the largest supply of meat
that any restaurantes1r could lay aside
would not extend over tomorrow. and
with its exhaustion must come a posi-
tive declaration of sympathy for or
against the union principle.
It was said a. the Headquarters of
the Cooks and Walters Alliance that

restaurants only fifty have been re-
turned. The butchers deny, however,

original owner has trouble on his

the New York & Bermudez company

But to return to Mr.. Provost's brief.
After describing the legal Jumping
of the claims to the Felicidad and Ven

Provost says:
"Cn Dec. T. 1900, Dr. Manuel NJ Ponte.

consequences and contracts the Ber-
mudeZ Lake Asphalt company derives
its rights, presented to the local au-
thOrities of the state of Sucre an &C
cusation or petition under the mining
law, praying for a patent or title to
another deposit of asphalt located to
the south of the mine Venezuela, to
which was given the name 'Southside.
The various steps prescribed by the
mining law for perfecting this title are
being strictly followed, and it is con-
fidently expected that in due course the
final patent will be issued
The Ponte is Mr.. MacDOnald's POnte.

Hernandez .Diaz, representing DR..

of the New York & BeTmudez COM

days had elapsed without the New

slightest attention to his claim. About
the time he was fling it the asphalt
trust was taking in about $4,000 worth
of machinery. Mr. Diaz's trip on that
occasion for DR. Ponte was to drive
stakes and take possession The trust
employees were on the lookout for DR..
Ponte and his friends. Although Mr..
Diaz had with him tie jefe civil, the
employees of the trust Outnumbered
his party and were also armed. As
a result Mr.. Diaz and the jefe civil
beat a forced retreat. They say the

cOerced with firearms. Mr.. Bean tells
me the employees of his company were
armed only with sticks. When DR.. Diaz
