Paris, Feb. Count Bonl dc Cas-
tellane. once famous as the husband
Of Nine, Anna Gould, will again
shine In the Partisan llmellght to-
morrow, when he will appear In the
correctional court to answer to the
charge OF having assaulted his cou-
sin Prince Helie de Sagan, In the
church OF 81. Pierre de Chaillot on
January o. The trial was originally
set for last month, but was post
poned.
Count Bonl does not deny the
charge, but alleges provocation. He
admits that he had an alteration
with his cousin, and that he kicked
and beat him aud spat in his face.
It is generally believed that the quar-
rel was the outgrowth of the attep-
tons that have ben paid by Prince
fIelie to Nine. Anna Gould, There
have been frequent rumors that the
former wife OF Count Bonl intends
to marry the dissolute prince. This
was resented by the count who is
known to entertain hopes OF effect
ing a reconciliation with his wealthy

drlnker, for instance, can use a type
writer. His nerves must be In good

tiously looking for diplomatist Of the
younger generation qualified to be
charge d'affaires throughout the next
winter
This delay has forced the ambassador
ter. Instead of going abroad he will
pass the early summer, at least, at Man
chester-by -theSea.
For some time now official and social
gossip. each independent of the other,
has connected the baron with possible
change He himself has been expecting
it.
About two years ago, and again a few
months ago. 1t was suggested that Am
basSador des PlancheS was slated for
the office of minister for foreign affairs
This office has been otherwise disposed
of. Upon the death of Count Tornielli
ambassador to Paris, Baron des
Planches was mentioned for the success
sion. While it would have been ac-
cepted by the baron. he was passed by.
Officially his name was never mentioned
for change.
In Europe, contrary to this country,
changes in official life always occur in
summer, particularly in the early sum-
mer. One of the important factors in
the selection of an ambassador to this
country is the question Of immigration.
AS Rome boasts an equal number of
advocates and opponents of immigra-
ton, 1t Is believed the change here
should 1t take effect, will hang upon
that question.
