LATTER OPPOSES MOTION Says He Has Been Giving Her $25,000 Annually and Has Paid Many of Her Bills Since Their Separation. NEW YORK. Sept- 21. Mrs. Catherine Clemens Gould, who Is suing Howard Gould for divorce today, applied to the court for an order for H30.000 a year ali mony and J16.000 for her counsel fees. The argument was adjourned until October 1, at the re-quest of Cornelius Sullivan, counsel for Mr. Gould. Mr. Sullivan de clared that Mrs. Gould Is undergoing no hardships. , "Mrs. Gould is generously allowed for by her husband." Mr. Sullivan added. "In November. 1907. Mr. Gould started to provide for her at the rate of J25.000 a yjar. The plaintiff has no children. Fur thermore, the plaintiff has pledged the de fendant's credit for articles purchased since the alleged separation, to the ex tent of JKjO.ooo or 1 50,000. She purchased Jewelry to the amount of JSO.OtW within six weeks of the time of the alleged aban donment." Wife's Lawyer Talks. Clarence J. Shearn. counsel for Mrs. Gould, replied that it was very necessary that Mrs. Gould be provided for at once. He said: "Mrs. Gould is being hounded by agents of the defendant and shadowed wherever she goes by his spies. Life Is made miser able for her and she has recently been made the victim of a rank conspiracy to blacken her character by the defendant Testimony has been purchased by the wit nesses. If Mr. Gould was willing to spread scandalous abuse of his wife throughout a :4-pase answer, he should now come into court and substantiate these charges." Another Gould Case. Immediately following the temporary disposition of this action, the case of Helen Kelly Gould against Frank J. Gould for-absolute divorce was called In the same courtroom and the court fixed Octo ber 2 as the dte for a hearing. - NO COMPROMISE BY TAFT Continued From Flft Pk m for Senator In th Interest of harmony. X copy of thl letter wii submitted to me at the time, but after the original had been Bent. It waa not intended for publication, but It waa understood that, if necessary. It mould ha published. I personally know that the strongest pres sure by various leaders was brought on Mr. Taft at that time to consent to the pro posed arrangement, and ha was Informed bv leading men of other stales that, if he would consent to this arrangement, all opposition on the part of Mr. Foraker and on the -part of some of Mr. Foraker's influ ential friends in tha Senate and elsewhere would ceasa and that Mr. Taft'a nomina tion for the Presidency would be assured. But Mr. Taft declined for one moment to consider any possible advantare to himself where what he regarded as a great prin ciple was at stake. His attitude on this Question, as well as on countless questions, convinced me that of all the men in this Union he was the man pre-emlnejily fit in point of uprightness and character, of fear less and agrresslve honesty and of fitness for championing the rights of the people as a whole, to be President. Foraker Represents Interests. Senator Foraker ha been a leader among those members of Congress of both parties who have resolutely opposed the great poli cies of Internal reform for which the Ad ministration has made itself responsible. Hn attitude has been that of certain other public men. notably as shown in this same correspondence published by Mr. Hearst) Governor Haskell, of Oklahoma. There Is a striking difference in one respect, however, in the present positions of Governor Has kell and Senator Foraker. Governor Haskell stands high in the councils of Mr. Bryan and la the treasurer of his National cam pifgn committee. Senator Foraker repre- , sents only tne rorces. wnicn, in emoiueren fashion, fought the nomination of Mr. Taft and whi-h were definitely deprived of power within the Republican party when Mr Taft was nominated. The publication of this correspondence not merely Justifies In striking fashion the action of the Administration, but also casta a serious sidelight on the attacks made upon the Administration both in the Pcnver Convention, which nominated Mr. Bryan, and in the course , of Mr. Bryan's campaign. Only One Way Elect Taft. . There is but. one way to preserve and perpetuate the great reforms, the great advances In righteoutsnesa and upright and fair dealing, which have marked the man agement of the affairs of the National Gov ernment during the last seven years, and that is by electing Mr. Taft. To defeat him will bring lasting satisfaction to but one set ef mert. namely, to those men, who, as shown in the correspondence published by Mr. Hearst, were behind Mr. Foraker. the opponent of Mr. Taft within his own party, and who are now behind Governor Haskell and his associate the opponents of Mr Taft in the opposing party. The great and sinister moneyed interests whi.-h hav shown such hostility to the ad ministration, and now to Mr. Taft. have grown to oppose the administration on vari ous matters not connected with those which mark the real point of difference. For ex ample, the entire agitation over Browns ville waa In large part not a genuine agi tation on behalf of colored men at all, but merely one pbae of the efforts by the rep resentative of law-defying corporations to 1 ring discredit upon the administration be cause It was seeking to cut out the evils connected, not only with the corrupt uwe r.f wealth, but especially with the corrupt alliance between certain business men of large fortunea and certain politicians of great office. Venom on Enmity te Taft Venomous hostility of these interests, and of heir special deputies in public life and In the press, to the nomination of Mr. Taft wii merely the natural sequence of their hostility to the measures of the ad ministration for the regulation of great cor porations doing an Interstate business and to the altitude of the, admlnitrattnn in consistently prosecuting all offenders of great wealth precisely as it has prosecuted all other offenders. Mr. Taft has been nom inated for the very reason that he Is the antithesis of the forces that were respon sible for Mr. Foraker. 1 he letter of Mr. Taft ts mm follows: No Compromise, Says Taft. "War Department. Washington. "Point au Fic Canada. July 2n. 1907. My Dear Mr. : In respect to one Inquiry of Tours. I wish to express my aeif with as much emphasis as possible, that ts. whether I wrruld object to a com promise resolution which, shall Include an indorsement of mrseLf for the Presidency and Senator Foraker for the Senatorshlp. In my judgment, it would be not only a great mistake something more. It would be accepted necessarily as a compromise on my behalf, and. therefore with my acqui escence, or at least with the acquiescence f my friends. ffr whose action I am more or less responsible. It would totally mis represent my position. "I don't care for the Presidency If It has to come by compromise with Senator Fora ker or any one else in a matter of prin ciple. He has opposed the vital policies and principles of the administration and in h'm opposition has seized upon and magni fied, an Important but incidental matter to ambarrase tha administration, using In this without scruple, a blind race prejudice to accomplish his main purpose. If I were confronted with a mere fartlonal differenca within my party, nflt Involving a subject which must come uo for consideration and action by the - next Republican National convention. 1 should not be so emphatic In my cocctution. Question of Principle. "It fa not on my part a question of per sonal feeling with respect to Senator Fora ker. It la really a question of political principle. In respect to this the Legisla ture of Ohio expressed what I believe to be the sentiment of the people of Ohio In a resolution asking the Senator to support the rate bill. Senator Foraker declined to follow this resolution. When the Issue li whether he shall be returned. It must be determined If this Is to be a representative form of government, not by the question whether he has followed his conscience, but by the question whether he really repre sents the principles that hi 'constituents desire supported and put Into practice. The Issue Is realty whether the Republicans of Ohio, therefore. as the constituents of either a Senator or a political candidate, support the ma In policies maintained by the administration or the opposition to those policies. Representing the policies of the administration. I cannot stultify myself by acquiescence . In any proposed compromise whirh necessarily Involves the admission that the Republicans of Ohio regard this fundamental difference of opinion as of no Importance and one that can be waived in the interest of party harmony or the settle ment of factional, differences. "There ts not the slightest dnubt that the next National convention of the Republi can party will sustain in full the vital and main principles maintained by President Roosevelt and will express no sympathy with the opposition represented by Senator Foraker. Because I believe in these prin ciples and because in my judgment the Republicans of the state and Nation are overwhelmingly In favor of them, I can not favor any action by members of the committee who do me the honor to support me and wish to aid me. which will have the appearance of acquiescence In the proposed compromise. Very slncerly yours. "WILLIAM H. TAFT." Kind of Man for President. I publish this letter without Mr. T eft's knowledge, because I feel It my duty to the public that his attitude should be known. The man who unhesitatingly resists temptation, who cannot be swerved by any consideration of personal interest from fol lowing the course which his lofty concep tion of duty dictates to him, the man whose whole concern Is for the welfare of the peo ple, and who has proved In a lifetime of difficulty and useful oublic service hia ax traordlnary capacity as an administrator. Is surely the man of all others to be en trusted with the Presidency. Mr. Tafft's candidacy is not based upon large and vague promises, part of which would be Impossible of achievement and part of which would be absolutely mts chifivlous to the people of the whole coun try If put into effect. His candidacy is based upon his great record of actual achievement, his great record of service to the public, upon his inflexible adherence to the highest standards of righteousnies, and upon his proved and absolute fearlessness in relentlessly warring against evil where-eve.- it may be found. I appeal to all good citizens, to all high minded, conscientious men who love their country for the sake of their country, to put such a man at ita head. FORAKER MAY REPLY TODAY Slums Animus Against Roosevelt in Postponing Statement. CINCINNATI, O.. Spt. 21. United Butts Senator J. B.

Taft had taken on the matter of the non-indorsement of Mr. Foraker for re-election. The Senator said he would probably read tonight the copy of the statement handed him by the representative of the Asso ciated Press. The suggestion was rrade that he might wish his answer to appear In the editions of the newspapers of the country in which the President's state ment would be published. Mr. Foraker in reply said: ; "I am not so fond of the President's company as that." He further said that he might make a statement tomorrow, if, after consideration, he deemed a reply necessary. " MR. TAFT IVlLIi ADD NOTHING Lets Roosevelt's Letter on Foraker Stand for Itself. CINCINNATI. Or., Sept. 21. Judge Taft read and reread the production of President Roosevelt. Inspired by the Foraker-Hearst controversy. He re called vividly writing the letter which the President quoted from him. but after considering the question carefully, con cluded to make no addition to the sub ject at this time.

WED WITHOUT CEREMONY Foreigners in Idaho Believed Mere License Was Sufficient. WALLACE. Idaho. Sept. 21. (Special.) Investigations by the County Recorder's department of Shoshone County has brought to light an extraordinary condi tion of affairs with regard to the issu ance of marriage licenses in this county. For many months the department .ias been puizled at the non-return of mar riage licenses Issued to newly-arrived Fins, Poles and men of other foreign na tionality.

It was discov ered that many families in the district have been under the impression for years that all that was necessary was simply the taking out of a license, with the re sult that no minister or justice of the peace was employed to perform the cere mony.
