GOULD'S INCOME DWINDLES.
Suit for Alimony Shows It Dropped
From $600,000 to 40O,OO0.
NEW YORK, Oct. 17. That How
ard Gould's Income formerly was
$600,000 a year, but since the de
pression of business of last year bas
been reduced to $400,000 and that
he has lost $300,000 this year, was
stated by his counsel In an argument
before Justice Biscboff today. These
figures were given in opposing an ap
plication by Mrs. Katherlne Clem
mon! Gould, who Is suing Mr. Gould
for divorce, for an Increase in her
alimony from $25,000 a year to
$120,000. To support her application
Mrs. Gould asserted that her bus-
band's income was $600,000 a year.
Delancy Nicholl, counsel for Mr.
Gould, made the assertion that Mrs.
Gould's course for many years has
been one of unbridled extravagance
and last year she received from her
husband $220,000. Counsel for Mr.
Gould declared that In 1900 Mr.
Gould told his wife he would separ
ate from her unless she abandoned
her habits, but that Mrs. Gould de
clined to do so.
Clarance J. Shearn, counsel for
Mrs. Gould, said that Mr. Gould had
tried to "starve" his wife out in
Castle Gould and had filled the house
with spies, who watched her every
movement, compelling her to remove
to a hotel.
Mr. Nicholl retorted that in seven
years from 1899 to 1906. Mr. Gould
gave his wife $766,500 and that Mrs.
Gould had aaved $200,000 of it.
Decision on the increase of ali
mony was reserved.
