New York. Oct ll.-After sep
aration Of three weeks. during which
their friends talked OF Il divorce suit.
Howard Gould and his wife appeared
together today at the Vanderbilt auto
mobile cup race. 1t was their first
meeting for weeks and during that
time they had been living at different
hotels In Manhattan. Even their clos
est friends admit that thare was an
estrangement. They were reconciled
last night and started ut once for the
race.
The separation. it was learned. was
the direct result OF a disagreement
over the superintendent of Castle
Gould. the Folly" as the natives of
Long Island call it. that has cost the
Goulds so much money and temper.
The idea of erecting the mansion was
Mrs. Gould's. She intended it to be
enc of the show places of Long Island
II was to be replica of the famous
Kilkenny castle and no expense was
to be spared on the erection of it.
Almost from the moment after the
first shovel of dirt had been removed
for the foundation trouble over 1t
occurred between Mr.. Gould and his
wife. Finally on the return from Eu-
rope recently III Mr. Gould's yacht
Mrs. Gould demanded the dismissal of
the superintendent of the castle. Mr.
Gould refused to let the man go and
an estrangement between the young
millionaire and his wife followed.
Mrs. Gould went to the st. Regis
She told a friend in explaining the
quarrel with her husband over the
superintendent. and said:
Il could not permit an employe to
disobey my orders on my own place"
Mrs. Gould is Il woman of strong
AMI hasty temper. She has demon
strated that in the law courts on the
several occasions she has appealed
thare in response to actions at law
brought by dismissed employees cos
tuners and others that she would not
brook any Inference with her will
in respect to the detention of any
servant.
The determined stand of Mr.. Gould
in the matter Of the superintendent
came as a surprise to his friends.
When Howard Gould married
katherine Clemmons. the actress. in
London, somewhat suddenly, he al
most forfeited his fortune.
In Jay Goulds will there was pro-
vision that if any member of the FAM
lily married against the wishes of
the others the inheritance OF that
member should revert to the brothers
and sisters. While all the family OBJ
iected strongly to Towards marriage
with Miss Clemmons, none took adj
vantage of the clause in the fathers
will to strip Howard of his millions.
