JTETV YORK, June 15.-Torn -Kith an
ger and extreme humiliation, alternately
flushing: with iihame. sobbing: or clench
ing her hands in exasperation, Katherlne
Clemmons Gould sat through a trying or
deal In the Supreme Court today at the
continuation of her suit against Howard
Gould.
It was a day of testimony for the de
fense, during which Mr. Gould's attorney
sought to bring- out that Mrs. Gould's
habits were such that her husband was
Justified In leaving her. In the event of
proving this, the defense hopes to under
mine the charges of abandonment.
Drunken Society Woman.
Mrs. Gould having naively told yester
day what is required of a woman of
fashion in the matter of dress at Palm
Beach and elsewhere, witnesses for the
defense recited today the indulgence of
the same woman of fashion in the matter
of alcoholic stimulants. That Mrs. Gould
had been intoxicated on various occa
sions, that she had called Howard Gould
"you little hound": that once she was
apparently so under the Influence of
liquor as to stagger; that her maid
brought liquors to her room, were among
the statements brought out as employes
of the Gould estate related on the stand
their experiences with their former mis
tress, j
Mrs. Gould's lawyer, Clarence J. Shearn.
who had objected strenuously at first to
the trend of testimony, but was over
ruled. Injected into the case the rather
novel argument that, admitting even that
his client had been intoxicated, that
should have strengthened rather than
have weakened the ties between wife and
husband.
Erratic Mistress of Castle.
It was a rather erratic' administration
that Mrs. Gould conducted at Castle
Gould, according to the testimony. Verbal
clashes with the " manager of the great
estate, heated arguments with carpenters
over the construction of a hencoop, a
period when she remained In her room for
two weeks, consuming seven bottles of
brandy with other liquors these incidents
and others were sworn to on the stand.
One of the carpenters testified that at
the time of the quarrel over the hencoop,
Mrs. Gould "could not walk straight."
Stormy Night at Castle.
Also there was an account by a former
steward of an exciting night when, he
said, she wanted the house locked, al
though Howard Gould was out on the
lawn. This, said the steward, did not
seem to appeal to Mrs. Gould as an argu
ment against closing the front door and
she told him to go ahead and lock up.
To appease her, he testified, he shut the
door, but did not lock it.
This was the night that Mrs. Gould is
said to have called her husband "a little
hound," a term which she applied to
him, as testified, after he had come to
her room to see what the matter was,
confusion having been spread through the
great castle by the ringing of bells In
Mrs. Gould's room and the burglar alarm
system.
Finds One Defender.
While the most of testimony was
against Mrs. Gould, one witness spoke
in her favor. He Is Charles H. Davis,
or Glencove. L. I. He testified that In
1902 and 1903, he did considerable work
on the Gould estate and saw Mrs. Gould
frequently. He had never seen her in
toxicated, he said, but at times he knew
she had been drinking, because he could
smell her breath."
Evidence Confined to Abandonment.
On motion of counsel for Mr.
Gould. today's evidence was con
fined to the hearing on abandonment
only. Mrs. Gould has declared that she
has not spoken to Mr. Gould since July,
1906, when she complained to him about
the conduct of Maurice Malloy, whom
Mr. Gould had put in charge of Castle
3ould. the Long Island home of Mr. and
Mrs. Gould. Subsequently Mrs. Gould
said her husband sent Elijah W. Sells to
her to say that Mr. Gould would return
to her If she would agree to certain con
ditions, or he would arrange either for a
separation or divorce. These proposals
were rejected by Mrs. Gould.
Before the resumption of the case to
day a letter from Mrs. Charlotte Weston,
a sister of Mr. Nicoll, Mr. Gould's attor
ney, was given out. denying that Mrs.
Gould had given her a dress. Mrs. Wes
ton said she had never seen Mrs. Gould.
When the letter was shown to Mrs. Gould
she said:
"I did not give the gown to her per
sonally, but she was one of the actresses
who received a box of gowns that I sent
to one of the theaters."
Maurice Malloy, superintendent of the
Castle Gould, was the first witness today

Washingtonian Discourses Upon Pa

and Criticism Results.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, June 15. Representative Cush
man put himself in bad with union labor
men in Washington with a speech he
made yesterday to employes of the Gov
ernment printing office. Cushman, as
orator at the Flag day celebration, gave
utterance to this statement:
"I have but little respect for a man who
throws high In Jhe air his hat on the
Fourth of July, when bands come by led
by numerous American flags, and who on
the day following Independence day,
sends a brick crashing through a street
car window because employes of the com
pany happen to he on strike, and because
the car happens to be operated by non
union men."
Cushman's remarks were discussed later
at the Typographical Union, and he was
more or less severely criticised by local
union labor leaders. It was concluded
that he had delivered inadvertently a
speech he had prepared for a non-union
audience.
PHYSICIAN IS IN TOILS
Dr. C. Warren Chester Arrested in
Los Angeles After Chase.
LOS ANGELES. June 15. (Special.)
After a chase of many months Dr.
C. Warren Chester, wanted all along
the Coast on charges of obtaining
money under false pretenses, was ar
rested on the street tonight by Detec
tive Harris. He Is In the County Jail,
pending the coming of the Sheriff from
Mendocino County, and declines to make
a statement.
Some time ago Chester and a part
ner were arrested and convicted on a
similar charge and ''fined $250 each.
They appealed and, when , the higher
court sustained the judgment, they
failed to appear. Then warrants were
issued and forwarded here, because
Chester was supposed to make this city
his home. Chester fled to Mexico, re
turning to California only a few days
ago. It Is alleged they realized a large
amount on illegal practice of their pro
fession. GOVERNOR HAY LEFT OUT
Gets Lost In Crowd Waiting to Hear
Executive Deliver Speech.
SEATTLE, Wash., June 15. (Special.)
Standing in front of the veiled statue of
George Washington yesterday afternoon
for more than an hour waiting for. the
ceremonies attendant upon the unveiling
to begin, when, in fact, they were in
progress in the Exposition auditorium.
Governor M. E. Hay missed his part on
the programme.
Governor Hay was down to accent h
monument from the Daughters of the
American Revolution in behalf of the
state, but when the time came for him
to make the speech, he was neither on the
platform nor in the audience, and the
presiding officer. Judge Hanford, was
compelled to excuse him on account of
the multiplicity of calls upon his atten
tion and to ask President T. F. Kane, of
the State University, to receive the mon
ument for both the university and the
state.
MAY MAKE ALASKA "DRY"
Congress Provides New Requirement
for Saloon Licenses.
SEATTLE, Wash.. June 15. (Special.)
That a man to obtain a liquor license In
Alaska in the future must present a
petition to which the names of a ma
jority of the people in his precinct are
signed is the principal clause of a bill
passed without noise during the past Win
ter, according to Judge Porter J. Coston,
townsite trustee of Nome, who has Just
arrived from Washington.
Not only must the majority of men In
the precinct show their willingness to
have the license granted, but the women
are also included, and this fact has led
some Alaskans in Washington to the be
lief that the Northland will now go dry.
MELAS MAY GO UNDER BAN
Alleged Non-alcoholic Beverage to
Be Analyzed at Albany.
ALBANY, Or., June 15. (Special.)
Believing that "melas." the alleged
non - intoxicating drink manufactured
by the Salem brewery contains enough
alcohol to come under the provisions
of the local option liquor law. Sheriff
Smith and Deputy Sheriff Munkers to
day bought bottles of the beverage
from three local emporiums and will
have a chemical analysis made of it.
If the analysis discloses enough alco
hol to show that "melas" Is Intoxicat
ing, the officers will file complaints
against the three men who sold It!
TAX UNEARNED INCREASE
German Government Proposes Hen
ry George System to Reichstag.
BERLIN, June 15. The Reichstag re
assembled today. Among the official
communications laid before the House
was one from the government concerning
the proposal to tax the unearned Incre
ment in real estate values. The govern
ment has decided that it is inexpedient
to do this for imperial purposes, inas
much as there are seemingly unsur
mountable difficulties in the way of an
equitable adjustment of the taxes on
city and county values, but it approves
as Just the taxing of the unearned incre
ment for local purposes.

SEND APPEAL TO TAKAHIRA
No Farther Disturbance Reported in
Islands, but Agitators Hold
Frequent Meetings for
Discussion.
HONOLULU, June 15. Strong efforts
are being made by the Japanese strikers
to get the Japanese government to make
an international incident of the forcible
entry into the office of a local Japanese
newspaper and the seizure of papers by
the Sheriff last Friday. Leaders In the
strike appealed to Ambassador Takahlra
at Washington by cable today, and de
manded an Immediate investigation of
the alleged violation or the treaty right.
The message recites that the Sheriff,
without warrant of law. broke Into the
office of the Jiji, arrested its editors and
seized their private papers and books.
The message complains of other acts of
the Sheriff and territorial officials.
Efforts Made at Home.
Determined efforts. It is said, are being
made to secure the influence of the po
litical parties in Japan In the matter, and
to get Influential newspapers in the em
pire , to bring pressure to bear upon the
Japanese government to institute an In
quiry rnto the arrest of Japanese subjects
and the seizure of their papers by the ter
ritorial authorities.
The four Japanese editors of a local
paper and several others of the 17 Jap
anese arrested last Saturrtsnr on,
day upon indictments growing out of the
siriKe or me sugar plantation laborers,
were, released on ball today and their
preliminary hearings were set to com
mence on June 18.
Many Conferences Held.
The situation remained practically un
changed today. No attempt was made by
the striking laborers to interfere with
such of their countrymen as have re
turned to work. Many conferences were
held during the day by delegates from
bodies of strikers from various parts of
the island, but what the object of a
general meeting held or what plans the
strike leaders have agreed upon has not
been made public.
While the feeling among the Japanese,
of whom there are 6000 or 8000 still out,
is tense because of the arrest of some of
their leaders, they have carefully re
frained from any untoward act that would
give the authorities cause to take even
more drastic measures.

Cougar Scalps "Spoil" While Stored
In County Court Vault.
SALEM, Or., - June 15. (Special.)
County Clerk R. D. Allen is in a quan
dary. The last session of the Legislature
passed a law offering a large bounty for
killing mountain lions, coyotes and other
wild animals, and providing that certain
parts of the beasts' anatomies shall be
brought to the office of the County Clerk
and there held until the County Court
shall have an opportunity of passing on
the claims for county money.
Recently relics of several animals have
been brought to the Clerk's office, the
names of the hunters duly registered and
the scalps of the animals stored in the
Clerk's vault, which Is not provided with
refrigerator facilities. The warm weather
of the past few days has caused a mighty
stench to go up from the- bones.
The young women in the office com
plain strenuously, while holding their
noses, but the Clerk, who Is trying to
obey the law, is helpless, and the County
Court does not meet until July 7.

agreedi to by the Prosecuting Attorney.

released from jail if he furnishes this
amount, which his relatives are pre
pared to do.
Last night It had been planned to
make the second charge forgery, as
was reported in the dispatches, but to
day it was determined to make the sec

WASHINGTON, June 15. President
Taft tomorrow will send to Congress a
message urging the, passage of an amend
ment to the tariff bill Imposing a tax of
2 per cent upon the undistributed net
earnings of corporations, and the adop
tion of a resolution submitting to the sev
eral states an amendment to the Consti
tution giving Congress the power to im
pose a tax on incomes.
This understanding was reached at a
session of the Cabinet today and was
approved by Republican Senate leaders,
who conferred with the President.
Attorney-General Wickersham ' will
draft both the amendment and the reso
lution. In view of the emphatic stand taken
by President Taft, a number of progres
sive Republicans have signified their in
tention of following his recommendations.
The President favors an amendment pro
viding for a tax on the net earnings of
corporations, not only because of the
added revenue it would produce, but also
because he believes it would throw a
healthy light of publicity upon the affairs
of corporations.

Railroader Regrets to Disappoint
Taft, but Does Not Wish to
Give Up Work.
CHICAGO. June 15. (Special.) It was
because he did not want "to drop the
plow in the middle of the furrow." that
Frederic A. Delano, president of the
Wabash Railroad, and the man sought by
President Taft for one of the most Im
portant of the country's diplomatic as
signments, declined to become Minister
to China.
"I know what I can do in my present
line, but I do not know what I might
be able to do in public life," said Mr.
Delano today. "I entered railroading as
a profession. I have had no schooling in
diplomacy. To fall to heed my country's
call was no easy thing to do, but I be
lieve I am serving my country in some
small way where I am, and in what I
am trying to do for the development of
railroads at home.
"I have a family of four daughters, and
to take them from school and attempt
their education in Pekin, where advan
tages are missing, I think would hardly
be fair to them. These things do not
seem to me small objections, even had I
no ambitions of my own.
"I entered railroading as a profession,
and I do not consider that I have ac
complished all that I set out to do. r
do not think it a wise plan to drop the
plow In the middle of the furrow, and
so, not without a hard struggle, I chose
not to enter the career that an assign
ment to represent the- United States in
Pekin would have impelled me toward."

gation against the estate of Nelson Mor
ris. The interest dates from the time of the

$184,000.
'This is the largest inheritance tax ever

ernor Deneen Monday goes Into effect
July 1," said Walter K. Lincoln. State
Inheritance Tax Attorney.
The value of the Morris property in
Illinois amounted to .over $16,000,000 and

PARIS, June 15. A newspaper states
that M. Caillaux. Minister of Finance,
has decided against the listing of the
common stock of the United States Steel
Corporation on the Paris Bourse, because
first, the government cannot legally en
tertain an application for the listing of
stock which has not been made by per
sons issuing the stock, and in this - case
the application was made by a "bankers'
trust;" second, it was proposed that a
"bankers' corporation" should issue cer
tificates to represent the shares, which Is
also held to be Illegal.
In addition, technical objections were)
raised by the treasury, and a strong pro
test was lodged with Premier Clemenceau
against the exceptional treatment accord
ed a foreign corporation.
