Amended Complaint Served on the
Husband Comes as a Surprise.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. August 15.-The divorce
suit begun some weeks ago by Mrs. Helen
Kelly Gould against Frank J. Gould took
q new turn today, when Mr.. Gould was
served with an amended complaint in the
action, in which, as was reported today.
more specific charges are made than ap-
peared in the original complaint.
The details of the amended complaint
could not be learned today, as counsel for
both sides declined absolutely to discuss
the matter. At the same time it was
learned that this new move on Mrs.
Gould's part was quite surprise to her
husband. It also explains to some extent
the action of Mrs. Gould's attorneys last
week in compelling Mr.. Gould's lawyers
to file in the county clerks Office his an
swer to the original complaint. The an
swer filed. 1t became legally possible for
Mrs. Gould to serve an amended COM
plant, which entails on Mr.. Gould the
necessity Of filing a new or amended an
swer.
The original complaint charges Mr..
Gould with misconduct in June, 1905, at
North Sydney. Cape Breton. with a wom-
an whose name is not known to the plain
tiff. 1t was said today that the amended
complaint also charges him with being
intimate with a woman in this city.

GEN. WARDWELL DIES.
His Maniac Wife in Quarantine
With Leprosy

TOMBSTONE. Ariz.. August 15.-Gen.
d. X. Wardwell died this afternoon while
in quarantine with his leper wife. Her
sufferings from the combined effects OF
leprosy and the nervous strain following
the notoriety of their case destroyed her
reason. and she is totally unaware that
her husband is dead
Gen. Wardwell was a veteran OF the
Mexican and civil wars. Efforts to deport
Mrs. Wardwell to the leper colony have
brought out many complications. the fed
eral authorities refusing aid and the ter
ritorial officials being unable to act under
the present law. 1t is probable that she
will remain isolated here and be cared
for until death.
