GOULD DIVORCED WITH EXCEPTION OF ALIMONY HER VICTORY IS COMPLETE. Vindicated of Charges of Intoxication and Her Alleged Relations With Dustin Farnum, the Actor. New Yorlt City.—After a trial which has lasted nearly three weeks, Katb erine Clemmons Oould obtained a legal separation from her husband, Howard Gould, third son of the late Jay Gould, by a decision of Justice Dowling in the supreme court here. With the exception of alimony, her vic tory was complete, but in this phase of the case the court decided that $36,- 000 a year was sufficient, although in her suit Mrs. Gould asked for s"ir>o,- 000. It was In the vindication of charges of intoxication and her alleged rela tions with Dustin Farnum, the actor, that Mrs. Gould scored most strongly, for notwithstanding the long array of witnesses for Mr. Gould who gave such testimony as to make Mrs. Gould appear at times as defendant rather than plaintiff, the court held that the alleged "intoxication" might have been due to excitement. As to Dustin Farnum it was held that her association with him came after Mr. and Mrs. Gould separated and the husband apparently made no objection. Immediately after the decision. De Lancey Nlcoll, for Mr. Gould, asked for a 60-day stay of judgment and Clarence J. Shearn, for tne plaintiff, was on his feet to object. He asked for an immediate judgment. Justice Dowling compromised by making the stay 30 days. Mr. Shearn then.asked for an extra allowance for counsel fees and the court gave him $2,000. This, together with the SIO,OOO al lowed recently and the original allow ance of $5,000, will bring his fees to $17,000, with an additional sum of $3,900 for expenses. REPORTS ARE ENCOURAGING Continued Improvement in Industrial and Mercantile Business Noted all Over the Country. New York City.— R. G.
