When Maranzano came to the United States Capone called on him and told him that he respected him for who he was as head of the Mafia but that his control would not be recognized here and that he had to stay out of the affairs here

The submitted about Capone calling on Maranzano and telling Maranzano that he would not be recognized and to mind his own business was taken from an article by Jack Anderson about the growth and spreading of the mafia here.
Anderson says he got the info from secret Senate crime files .
He says that out of respect Capone told Maranzano they'd pay him $2000 a week
The article then says that Maranzano went into sort of a semi retirement until starting to thirst again for power.
From that point on,Anderson's column mentions Maranzano calling for the banquet just as what you mention and subsequently what followed with him taking control until getting killed not long after
