WIFE IS ExTRAvAGANT
IS THE DEFENSE
OF GOULD
Howard Declares That She
Spends Money tooFreely and
Shows too Many Jewels.
CLAIMS SHE ALSO
HAS VIOLENT TEMPER

New York, June 1.-Two of the
counter charges in Howard Gould's
answer to his wife's suit for a separa-
ton have been announced.
one is that she is inordnately eX-
travagant. The other is that her
temper was source of constant an
noyance to Mr. Gould and many
besides being a barrier to the Goulds'
domestic happiness.
Gould also says that his wifes dis
play of jewels in public was a source
Of annoyance to him.
The other counts in the answer Of
Mr.. Gould have not been made pub
lie.
His defense is along the expected
lines and Mrs. Gould's attorneys claim
that they will be able to successfully
prove an entirely different state of
affairs.
The fact that the federal grand
jury will probably take a hand in the
Gould case by investigating the al
legged tampering with her mail, has
caused considerable comment among
attorneys, If her mail was opened
often 1t had been delivered to her or
her agent, according to the general
opinion, the United States will have
no authority over the case and 1t will
then become a matter for the state
grand jury.
Gould's attorneys have little to say
concerning their defense, except Ia
reiterate that they can prove all their
counter claims.

PACKERS RAISE PRICE

FOLLOW SUIT
st. LOuisdnS Compelled to Pay
From 3 to g Cents More
Per Pound For Beef.
POST MORTEM INSPECTION
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE

st. Louis, June CONSUMERS of
meat here were required today to pay
advances of from two to six cents per
pound for beef as a result of the con-
test between the packers and live
stock dealers, on account of the re-
fusal of the packers to pay for cows
and heifers until after a post-mortem
inspection by government officials.
The advance to consumers followed
a raise Of one and a half cents per
pound on beef carcasses by packers
yesterday and a further rise is in
prospect.
Dealers declare that they must
raise from two to six cents per pound
i'm their retail prices in order to re-
trieve the loss which would other
wise ensue from the increased pack
ers price.
The packers insist that they will
make no payments for live stock un-
I'll after post-mortem examination
the loss for rejected carcasses thus
falling on the live stock dealers in
stead Of the packers.

Western Federation Miners
President Stricken With
Pain in His Cell
at Boise.
TOXIC POISONING NOT
or SERIOUS NATURE
He Was Able to See His Friends
This Afternoon Though Suffer
ing Considerably From His
Nights SiCkness--Has Not
Fully Recovered.

Boise, Idaho, June William d.
Haywood, defendant now on trial
charged with the murder of former
Governor Steuenberg, was taken ser1-
ously i'll in his cell in the county Jail
early this morning.
Doctors were with him several
hours, finally giving him relief.
1t is believed that the prisoner is
suffering from a nervous breakdown
as for some days he has complained
of violent headaches.
About l o'clock this morning the
pains i'm his head became acute and
his cries could be heard in the jail
yard.
Opiates were administered and at s
o'clock he was resting easily.
Because of Haywood's illness court
adjourned until go.
His physicians this morning stated
that Haywood's illness is not serious
and that they believed he would be
able to be in court at 1880 this after
noon.
His sickness was said to be due to
toxic poisoning and was very painful
though not by any means likely to
terminate fatally.
1t was noised about the city this
morning that Haywood had obtained
and taken a dose of poison, but the
officials at the Jail, as we'll as his ply
sicians, deny this and state that his
illness was due entirely to natural
causes. 1t would be impossible, con-
sidering the manner in which he is
guarded, for anyone to place poison
in Haywood's hands.
This is the fourth week of Hay
woods trial and the third Venire of
61 men is now being examined for
jurors. The veniremen are showing
an increased aversion to serving. A
conference of attorneys was held al
noon and it is probable that some OF
the jurors will be excused by consent
of both, sides.
Mrs. Haywood and her daughters
came to court yesterday morning and
for the first time since the trial be-
gan she sat immediately behind ,ne
prisoner.
If another venire has to be sought
it is not the prisoner the men of Ada
county will be wanting to hang, but
the deputies of Sheriff Hodgin.
out of the last sixty-one veniremer
summoned, twenty Of them filed III
to the judges desk, asking to be ex
cused from jury service. They were
lusty men and hearty to look at, bu
appearances have become deceptive
in Boise since the trial began, be
cause they We're as one man In as
suring the court of their decrepit con
ditiOn.
This afternoon court adjourned un
til II o'clock Monday, as Haywood
was unable to attend court this af
ternOon, though he saw friends i'm hi
cell. His counsel reported today tina
they believe the defendant would bt
ready to attend court Monday.

The tests are being continued

clear, the semaphore signal shows
cle.", but the light Is red and the en-
gineer's duty Is to stop.
Seeing the track clear, however,
many of them would disregard the
signal, fearing to lose time. In
other cases the switch lights are ex-
tinguished. Instead of stopping his
train and notifying the operator and
having the track switch inspected
the engineer in some instances would
hurry his train forward to the station
and there notify the operator that the
lamp needed attention.

Hillsboro, n. NJ, June 1.-Suspicion

nature.
In discussing the action of poisons
at the trial for the murder Of Madrid
she said that she had preferred the

why she preferred Rough-on-Rats,
she said that it affected the victim
