THE TITLED SPENDTHRIFT.
How Count Boni Castellane Made
the Gould Fortune "Sk'.ddoo."
At the Hearing ot ino castellane
creditor's cases to-day Maitre Cruppi,
us Mine Gould's lawyer, told how
Count Bon I tell into the hands ot
tlio money-lenders and how he was
driven to desperate straits to raise
money. Count Honl. the lawyer said,
was even compelled lo descend into
trade to raiae money, and bought
and aold goods just like the common
tradesman whom It Is tlie tasluou
I of the Kreuch aristocracy to ue
nounce. Maitre Cruppi talked lor
I four hours, mostly with the tech
nu ul road lag or the civil code, the
marriage contract, and other dry doc?
uments. In the middle of his speech
the Judge went to sieep and slipped
la his chair, aim several persons
among the audience snored.
Cruppi demonstrated how Count
Uonl had been the victim pi usurers,
Isidore Zlegler, the principal cred?
itor, claiming over a million trancs
(or sums advanced with which to
manage the count's household arfalrs.
/regier showed lilniselt the cniei
of the nand of nincy-lenders, aho
I Cruppi said that i&iegler was n sly
I ox, tor he advanced the least ikis
Blble amount of money bimseir and
always got somebody else to turnish
the funds. Cruppi advanced proofs
of usury in the lollowing trans?
actions: in one case Count Mom
gave a note ror 44,(iuu francs, but
actually received in two payments
only 29,0tn> rrancs.. Again he gave
a note for 21,000 rrancs and received
actually H.ooo rrancs. Being unable
to pay this when due, the money?
lender exacted a note renewed at
20,000 francs. The sum total re?
ceived by Honl, however, was only
17,000 rrancs.
, On another note tor 5ft,0i?0 inines
Bonl actually got 20,000 trancs.
Countess Anna ileiiied any partic?
ipation in or benefit from these loans
and said they were made without
nor knowledge or consent. She re?
fused, thererore, to Do held respon
'stulu for the same. Concerning the
tradesmen's bills, said tMnitre Cruppi.
Countess Anna is always willing
to pay the same when they are le
jglttmatc demands.
Cruppi snowed liow a dressmaker,
claliuiiig nearly 20,000 francs, did
not fumlsh any dresses to the count?
ess, but lent the money to Boni.
Mo, too, an antiquity dealer, claim?
ing pay men i for numerous objects
of furniture, really sold the countess
only two. The other items or the
?nil figuring as pieces of furniture
were disguised loans.
One denier claims that ne sold
the CaBtellanes two sofas, one tor
tiO.000 rrancs and the oilier for 80,000
francs; a chest ot drawers tor
,9.000 francs and a ..esk ror 20,000
trancs.
countss Anna says the last two
items were delivered at her house,
but she never saw the others. Notes
tor the same were signed by Count
Moni without his wife's knowledge.
Another dealer sent his bill for a
cone pot, 200 francs, and an antique
bottle. 20,000 rrancs, but these object *
Bonl sent as presents to his women
friends.
Concerning Count uonl's extrav?
agance, Cruppi said he had not only
spent his wire's entire income, whicp
she paid directly Into his hands our
Of generosity, but used up his per?
sonal sources of revenue. Cruppi
detailed mortgages amounting to
nearly V.ooo.ooo rrancs raised by
Count Bonl on five separate personal
and real estate properties. Bonl
also speculated la an i hint ties, but
did not have much luck in these
transactions. He generally lost, and
Anna had to root the bills. However,
sometimes Bonl did make a profit,
notably with a transaction with So
llgman, the antiquarian or the Place
Vendonie. nere Bonl bought goods
which he resold, making a pront
of 570,000 francs. '1 his sum should
have been contributed to the expen?
ses ot the household, but It was
not. it wont in the usual direction'
of lordly extrnvagunce.
Count Bonl's oxtrn*/agaiiee,"""CriippT
hiiki. sometimes ran pretty close to
wiiat ijy anyone eine might bo called
a swindle, One piquant detail con?
cerned Mademoiselle Nlmidorr, a
great beauty ami a singer at the
Ura'iid Opera here. She sold Honi a
jivb lot oi rich rings, pins, and neck?
laces lor I20,UI)U ..alles. She holds
Honl's reeelpt for the goods, hut
never got the money. She applied
to the countess Tor payment, hut
Anna declared she hud never set
eye? on the jewels or heard them
mentioned. Moni, when asked for
in explanation, declared he had
shown them to Anna and she hud
picked <>ut those she preferred and
hud sent them to a jeweler to reset,
and he had intended returning tho
remainder to Mile. Nlmldoir. it
turned out. however, so Cruppl de?
clared, tnat lion I hud simply taken
i he jewels arnuiitl the corner and
?"old them to a jeweler tor 6t>,UUt)
l runes.
Munition; then wrote Count Mom
a letter which was read in court,
saying that she knew all American
women were charming, and was sure
that the countess would see this
attair was properly settled.
Cruppl declared (hat Anna was
wax in Honl's hands. Ho used to
write letters to her family or to
business people and obliged her to
Copy i hem and a\an her name. Crup?
pl snld (hat Honi resorted to
tricks to make Anna write these
letters, telling her they were Intend?
ed f ir line person and then he mailed
ihem to somebody else. Honi wrote
very well in Rngllsh.
Cruppl summed up by saying that
Countess Anna was perfectly willing
to pay the tradesmen's bills, but
refused to settle the claims or dress?
makers! and furniture dealers who
had never delivered goods to her.
