PARIS, June George Gould's state
ment that the affairs Of the Count and
Countess de Castellane are adjusting them
selves is true in the sense that every effort
is being made to prevent the thrashing
out Of any scandal in open court.
The lawyers are seeking to arrange terms
that will be acceptable to both parties. and
which, should the court consent, might
result In no linen being washed in public,
the Judge granting the divorce TO the
Countess on whereasss which, while sif-
icing TO justify the decree in the eyes Of
the public, would spare the feelings Of third
parties.
There is every likelihood that such an
arrangement will he reached. but the
Countess has ali her batteries prepared
for Il fight should the Count decline the
more than generous terms she offers,
1t is absolutely untrue that she is weak
ening. lie continues obstinate as to the
control of the children, but he will be COM
PEELED to submit to their sole control by their
mother, who, however. is ready to concede
their fathers right to visit his offspring

PHILADELPHIA, June 13.--Abraham l..
English, Director Of Public Safety under
Mayor Ashbridge; Philip H. johnson,
former City Architect, and brother-in-law
Of Israel W. Durham; James Finley and John
Baton, all members of the old Durham gang,
were placed on trial to-day on the charge
Of conspiracy to defraud the city in the
building of a new municipal hospital.
The conspiracy is alleged to have been
Matched when English was Director Of the
Department Of Public Safety under Mayor
Ashbridge. johnson was at that time the
City Architect and drew the plans and
specifications for the work, the contract
for which was held by Henderson Il Co, Of
which concern Baton is a member. Fin
ley was an inspector who worked for the
city, and was assigned to the hospital job.
The precise allegation is conspiracy in
the use Of inferior material and in changes
Of the plans and specifications 30 that such
inferior material might be used.
The day was mostly spent In drawing the
jury and in preliminaries. 1t is not likely
any one will be convicted.

London Society Meets the Longworths At
Brilliant Reception.
Special Cable Despatch 10 THE SUN.


LONDON, June lathe annals Of Ameri-
can representation at the Court of st.
James's record no more brilliant function
than the reception given at Dorchester
House by Ambassador Reid in honor of
Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Long worth. The
beautiful mansion in Park Lane, with its
spacious rooms and priceless decorations.
formed q perfect setting.
From shortly after 10 o'clock last night
until early this morning a throng Of / 500
persons. representing English and Ameri-
can society, passed up the marble stair
case. at the head Of which stood the recep-
ton party, consisting Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Reid, Mr.. and Mrs. Carter and Mr.. and Mrs.
Longworth. Mrs. Longworth was attired
In a simple yellow silk gown. the plainness
OF which was relieved by Jet trimmings
on the bodice and sleeves. Her jewels
consisted Of a diamond dog collar and a
diamond necklace.
Her personality favorably impressed
everybody. More than once the remark
was passed as she beamed upon the guests:
How like Teddy's smile
The floral decorations were those pro-
vided for the previous evenings dinner
Nothing was wanting for the entertainment
OF the guests. bunetS were arranged IN
various rooms and supper was served in q
marquee in the garden while dancing went
on in the ballroom. 1t is probably no 1exag-
g~eration to say that the functions of the past
two nights cost Mr.. Reid his yearly ambas-
sadorial salary, but he has certainly given
Mr.. and Mrs. Iongworth entertainments
which in brillianoy and perfection Of arrange
ment it would be difficult to excel.
The American guests included Mr.. and
Mrs. Bradley Martin. the Drexels, Mr.. and
Mrs. George Vanderbilt, while the Dukes,
Duchesses, Marquises, Warehouses;, Wis.,
counts, ~Viscountesses, Earls, Countesses,
Barons and Baronesses and other titled
persona ges we're too numerous to specify.
There were also several Ministers and other
diplomats and their wives, the Archbishop
Of Canterbury and other exalted ecclesias-
tics present.
Mr.. and Mrs. Longworth spent a short
time at the opera before the reception.
To-day the Speaker of the House Of Com
mons will give a luncheon in their honor,
after which they will &c to the Speakers
gallery in the House and watch the pro-
ceedings.

Reavey," said Bailey, "but she denied it.

fiat, leaving my wife.

her mothers estate afew days ago and an
interest in some real estate. She holds one

OPEN REVOLT AGAINST GUFFEY.
Pennsylvania Democrats Say Chairman Is
q Corporation Man Demand Fusion.

y -
q Corporation Man Demand Fusion,
PITrsBURo, June 13.-The revolt against
the mana cement Of the Democratic party
in Pennsylvania by Col. James M. Guffey,
Democratic national committeeman, has
grown to large proportions.
Thirty-seven of the leading Democrats
OF this end OF the State issued a declaration
Of independence to-day, in which they
call upon the Democrats who are anxious
for reform in State politics to elect dele
gates to the State cow ention who will
stand for a fusion ticket, regardless Of party
lines and endeavor to break the power Of
the Standard Oil Company, the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad and Senator Penrose's
combinations in the administration Of State
affairs.
The declaration, signed by men who
nave beer prominent for years in the party,
has created a sensation. As an Offset the
Guffey adherents are openly Boosting that
no anti-Gurey delegates will be seated
in the State convention. No matter who
the voters Of the party nay select, they
announce that no mar unfavorable to the
machine will he allowed a seat. With the
machinery Of the party and the convention
in their hands they are confident Of being
able to carry out this boast.
The i%nsurgent Democrats want to indorse
the nomination OF Lewis j. Emery, the
nominee Of the Lincoln party, for Governor.
Col. GufTey has insisted that note but a
Democrat shall be nominated. The insur-
gents assert that Col. Gufey is the repre-
sentative of the Standard Oil and the Penn
s~ylvania Railroad companies in the Demo-
cratic party and they do not want him to
dictate the selection Of a candidate in OPP
position to Edwin S. Stuart, the Republic
can nominee, who is acceptable to the cor
porations Of the State.
The insurgent movement has spread
over the State, and Col. Gufey has been
forced to throw UP his hands and declare
that he will have nothing to do with the
State convention. His managers, however,
are making great claims.
