MRS. COULD ASKS
S120.QQ0 ALinIONY
Demands $10,000 Monthly
From Her Millionaire
Husband.
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. Foraker stated that
ovrinK to the lateness of the hour, he

ment Issued toniRht by President Roose
velt relative to the position W. H. 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. "

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. No notice had ever been taken
of this, as the department was under
the Impression that many of these mar
riages had been consummated In other
counties, and returns made there.
Accidentally, however. 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. In one case the marriage papers
were found framed in a cabin just as
Issued by the County Recorder years ago.
Kince when a family of several children
have been reared.
It now becomes necessary that the par
ents be legally married, and that the
father adopt the children.
