There is no good reason for believing this film has naything to do with Segundo de Chomón. He was extremely busy making his first Spanish films in 1904-1905 in Barcelona and did not come to Paris until summoned by Charles Pathé in the Spring of 1906, following the defection of Gaston Velle to Cines in Italy. Chomón had worked as a colourist for Pathé since about 1901 and, from arounf 1904 the firm of Macaya y Marro, one of those for which he worked in Spain, became accredited Pathé representatives in Barcelona and Chomón began to make topicalities (actualités) in the city for Pathé. He also seems to have had some input into two Pathé films in 1905, Le Roi des dollars and Velle's Poule aux oeufs d'or which were in both cases based on films made earlier by Chomón in Spain. But otherwise his career with Pathé would not begin until 1906.
