Such That She Viii
Not Accept.
big Bill" Hawley Tells
More of Howard'S
Family Skeleton.

NEW YORK, May 23.-One mill
lion dollars has been offered by
Howard Gould to his wife for a
divorce.
This proposition still stands to-
day, and the money will be turned
over by Howard Gould, or the
Gould family, at any moment Mrs.
Katharine ClemmOns Gould will
acquiesce in the hard conditions
which they impose.
The acceptance Of this offer by
Mrs. Gould is a chance so exceed
ingIy remote that II Is hardly worth
considering.
Il know positively that Howard
Gould, or his family, if he should
back down, viii give Mrs. Gould
S1,OOO,OOO 10 get a divorce from her
husband" said W. c. Woodward,
alias Big Hawley"
First Made a Year Ago.
There is a standing offer TO Mrs.
Gould of S1,0O0,OO said Woodward.
1T was first made when the trou-
bles between the Goulds assumed an
active form. which was about a wear
ago, think. Through intermedi-
aries, Gould told his wife that he
would give her 81 100000 fat if she
would go to some State where the
divorce laws are easy and sue him
on the ground of incompatibility.
''She also was asked to reIinquish
all claims against his estate, and to
drop the Gould name, never to as
sumo il again. He was willing not
10 put in any defense, and 10 REIN
burse his wife for all of her legal
and other expenses.
But she turned him down. He
was toe anxious. The Gould family
now stands ready TO make good on
the offer. But il never viii be ac-
cepted. You may depend upon
that"

DISSOLVE INJUNCTION
Motion Was Denied By Judge
 Peasley in District Court.

A motion to dissolve an injunction preventing Micahel Della from cut
 ting timber on land he bought from Morris Tafel some years ago was de- nied by Judge Peasley at short calen- dar in the district court to-day. The tract consisted of sixty acres. Della bought fifty acres with the right to cut the timber on the whole sixty acres, A few weeks later Tafel sold the remaining ten acres to Andrew Oleson. A year or so after Oleson died and two years later still Della proceeded to avail himself of the right to cut the timber. Oleson's administrator had an injunction served upon Della claiming that he had not availed himself of his right within reasonable time. Judge Peasley's decision throws the matter into the trial court.

MONEY TO BURN
Republicans Always Have Bar
 rels of It For Campaign.

speaking about campaign fund,
 what chance have the democrats of
 getting together, if they should try
 to, the pile that the republicans have
 started to use for this campaign. l What is a paltry $5,00O to some of | the men that are well fixed, espec- lally when they realize that if they
 can swing the election, their money VIII be well invested and the returns Will more than compensate them for
 the money expended. The investiga- lions Of the past couple of years show
 where corporations stand on election
 day. They show 1t by the manner
 Tn which they literally throw money into the coffers of the republican ma
 chlne. And though perhaps 1t is not
 so willingly given in municipal cam
 palgns, nevertheless a lot of dough
 nnds It's way to the republican hench-
 men. The republican candidate for
 mayoralty is said to be connected
 with one of the biggest corporations
 Tn the country. Wonder if 1t will
 donate any money to the republicans
 TOT campaign purposes. Wonder if
 the voters are of the opinion that 1t
 will. Does it seem probable that if would pass along a few thousand, especially when one considers that It has much at stake in this city ana has many projects which 1t wishes to push. If it should decide to do so what would the few thous- ands that the democrats would be X able to collect amount to.
 Moreover it is said that the repub. llcans want this election and want 1t badly for state purposes. It is a well known fact that Congressman George l.. Lilley is using his every effort to be the next gubernatorial nominee. How nice it would be for republican of a democratic city seeking the highest office in the state. They say MT Lilley is rather liberal fellow. They also declare that MT Ljlley is more than eager to have John E. Sewell elected mayor. Now when MT Lilley is con- such a good giver and as he IS known to have more than sufficient to keep him in plenty the rest of his days, many believe that if the repub- llcan town committee needed a few thousand he would not be bit back ward in contributing it for the good Of the party. As it is with the con- gressman, who is said to be doing more than his share, some declaring that he has even taken up his pen for the success of the republican party, it is with many others. The republican party that wishes to place Tn office, man who has been con- 1ected with corporations almost his entire life, is never shy of funds. If money could win out, the would De on the inside nearly all the time. But the money is to count less in this campaign than any in the past and notwithstanding the thousands that he republicans have to expend, their 'hances of winning are getting small 1T every day. When republican al- lerman, one who is a dyed in the wool republican, will state that May IT Thoms will not only get a great many of the old republican voters but llso the majority of the new ones, he democrats need have no fear of he present administration being urned out.

ANOTHER CANARD
Republican Campaign Committee Story About Street Foremen.

The republican campaign com
 mittee is making friends for Thoms every day and so long as this is so il
 might be the part of wisdom not tc
 take any notice of what it says No doubt this is the reason Mayor Thoms is not bothering his head making denial of every falsehood the committee sees fit to print. In this mornings Republican the com mittee above the signature "Tax- payer issues a direct challenge to Mayor Thoms to deny lot of charges. We quote one as sam- pie of all the others as follows:
 Do you deny, Mayor Thoms, that you have thirteen well paid foremen on the town roads where but two were required in the Elton admins tration?"
 The mayor is not denying or af- firming this, but in the interest of fair play the Democrat wishes to put the facts before the public and then let every honest elector draw his own conclusions. The following taken from the payroll under the Elton and Thoms administrations, and which may be seen by anybody who wants further proof, shows the num- Der of foremen employed in Otco- Der, 1905, and October, 1907:
 Republican administration. H. D. Hotchkiss, superintendent. Octo- Der 1, 1905. Foremen-D. E. Sweet, William Platt, F. s. Hotch- kiss, James Sutton, s. P. Bronson. Joe Summers, at $3 per day; M. AL drich, at $3.50 per day.
 Democratic administration. B. G. kilduff, superintendent. October l, 1907. Foremen-P. H. Real, w. E. Houghton, John Fitzgerald, M. A. Hartnett, P. c. Morris, o. P. Hart, Pagan, all at $3 per day.
 The new sidewalk law necessi- tated the employment of an expert in that line and the position was given to William Mccarthy at $4 per day. The statement has also been made | that Kilduff has one foreman for each gang of two or three men. The l records show one foreman for each | gang of thirty under Kilduff and one foreman for each gang of fifteen or sixteen under Hotchkiss.
