Gould, her brother, in trusteeship
II was shown that in four years the
couple had spent $4,000, ,0O0. and had
contracted debts for $4,000. 900 more
figures imposing enough when ex-
pressed in dollars, but magnificently
so when expressed in francs.
NJ. Bonnet, counsel for George
Gould, appeared before Maitre Bau-
douin, on Wednesday, November 1
1900. and petitioned the court for the
trusteeship, saying in explanation
to the court:
THE comtesse herself admits the
fact that she mas INDUCED in extrava-
giant expenditure and is in need of
having al authoritative adviser to
supply the experience in which she
is lacking. She consents to the ap-
pointment of judicial trustee.
But | think it necessary to sub
nit the entire reasons for this step
to. the court. The comtesse has an
annual income of 5000. 900 francs
(S600, ,000) in her own right. She was
married on May (, 1895. under a
separate estate law. Since then she

was not disappointed.
From the day of his arrival in
Paris, he showed what an adept he
was at spending other peoples
money. 1t is said that within year
he had spent 81 100000 on bric-a-
brac, bought the yacht ValhaIIa for
100000, and thrown about half
million into the political pot to
compass his election to the chamber
of deputies-which last was money
absolutely thrown away, for the
chamber arose in its wrath and de-
clined TO have a member who had
so nOt0riously been elected by bri-

cordial in regard 10 their French
brOther-in-law. He had sold the
head Of the family pair of magnifi-
cent Sevres vases, AT an even more
magnificent price That wouldn't
have been so bad in itself. but it
subsequently developed that the
vases had never been paid for and
the art dealer Of whom they had
originally been obtained in time
brought suit And that did not seem
quite square deal.
However. all that had nothing to
do with the present split in the
household of CasteIIane. The coun-
tess stood the extravaganza without

sense came to the rescue and show
ed her that continued in il would
spell ruin. She even stood his many
notorious affairs with chorus girls
and ladies of the demi-monde. II

that what she would not stand
would be an affair involving any
woman of their own set, any wo-

final straw that has broken the cam
