He Thought Anna Would Become
Reconeiled and Drop Case.

ne Ihou9ht Anna Would Become
Reconciled and Drop Case.
Paris, Nov. 2,--In spite of the re-
iterated statements made by Maitre
Cruppi in the opening address of the
trial of the case of the Countess De
Castellane for divorce from her hus-
band, Count Boni De Castellane, that
there was not the faintest possibility
of a reconciliation, it is by no means
certain that the count has abandoned
hope of such an outcome. His entire
conduct since the suit for divorce be-
gan would appear to be based on the
belief that his wife, who, for ten years
submitted to so many indignities, must
yield in the end. This theory will ex-
plain the counts refusal of liberal Of
fers of life income and it is now dis
closed that the count never ceased
writing love letters to his wife in
which he begged for reconciliation,
and in which he mathematical the
American lawyers under whose in
fiuence he charged she was acting.
Friends of Count Boni say that he
was dumbfounded to learn that the
countess had allowed the presenta-
tion of detailed case. He was so con-
fident that his wife would surrender
that he did not prepare a line of de-
fense.
