MIR. COLES MAKES DENIAL.

City Attorney n. e. Coles declares
that the interview published in the
other daily paper last night in which
he is quoted as denouncing Mayor
Bunting as CRATER and charging
that the mayor has gone east for the
purpose of trying to sell water works
bonds to or through his brother. along
with a number of other similar charg-
es against the mayor and the city
council. is false, misleading, unauth-
orized and he has demanded that
the other paper make retraction.
The city attorney states that he
did not call the mayor a CRATER, stat
ing that the reporter on the other
paper asked him If he would make
such a charge for publication and
that he emphatically declared that he
would not. He says that the report
er asked him il he believed that
Bunting was a CRATER and the attor-
ney says that his only reply was
ASK Newton"
Mr.. Coles further denies that he
asserted that he had it on reliable
authority that Mayor Bunting had
gone east to make arrangements to
dispose of the 100000 bonds should
they be voted. to his brother or
through him as banker.
In fact Mr.. Coles makes general
denial of very nearly every state
ment credited to him in the inter-
view.
The city attorney states that he
called up the Office of the other pa
per this morning and told the edi-
tor that the writer of the interview
was ''an unmitigated liar" and an
retraction must be forthcoming. He
expressed himself as being very in
over the matter and declar-
es that while he is opposed to the
course Mayor Bunting and the coun-
ell are taking in the matter and ad-
mits that he is fighting the propo-
sition, that he would not take an un-
fair advantage of Mr.. Bunting and
denounce him in the language cred |
tied to him in the Interview. during /

hold that judging from certain Lam

not sincere in this declaration.

IN its every part, consequently 1t is

cost Boni 100000 The Duke could
have given better one in Russia for
one-twentieth the sum. A hunting party
for the King of Portugal cost only S25,-
900, for his Majesty Is very stout. and
his activity as a hunter is limited TO
shooting at released trapped birds or
freed deer. The luncheon which fol
lowed was responsible for so large an
expenditure. No extravaganza was too
stupendous or too astonishing to be
neglected by Count Boni once he had
conceived the idea for an entertain
ment His dinner to the King of Por-
tugal made him famous According to
various reports it ran the Count about
$4,000 in debt.
Another entertainment which was
the talk of ~ Paris" was .little
dance, Louis XVI. style This cos
tune ball was very charming, and not
too dear at 100000 A more modest
dance-Louis XIV style-cost $130O00
Both of these fetes were appropriate in
the palatial setting which the Castel-
lane mansion afforded One ceiling of
the palace, that of the Countess's room,
was decorated at an expense of $780,
600, as an evidence of the Counts graf
itude.
When the Countess lawyer de-
nounced Boni as monumental spend
thrift" he evidently was well inform
ed, for the rapidity with which the
Count showered money-and obliga-
tons for more money-has perhaps
never been equalled
There is far more fiction than truth
in the accounts of the royal spend
thrifts of former ages. For instance,
the statement that Caesars supper bills
for four months We're more than five
millions sterling-or almost $40, 100000
is probably exaggerated Some ex-
planatory notes are needed also with
the anecdote of Antony giving his cook
n town of $4,000 inhabitants. Next
morning, very likely, Antony rebuked
him for failing to take joke. But the
case of the Count de Castellane is one
of those modern instances which, in
measure, is open to the inspection of
the world
