DENIES GOULD ALLEGATIONS
Dustin Farnum Indignant at Use
of His Name in Suit.
Manager Barnes, of the Hotel st
Regis, Says He Never ToIer-
ated Drinking Parties.

New York, April 7.-Dustin FaTnum, the
actor. who was named by Howard Gould
in his suit against his wife, declared to-
day the charges against him are ridicu-
lously and entirely false and said he hoped
he would have an opportunity to go into
court and deny there that he was ever
guilty of misconduct with Mrs. Gould
He said that if the other charges made
against Mrs. Gould are as slim as those
in which his name is mentioned, Mr.
Gould's case is very shaky.
Mr.. Farnum said:
Il first met Mrs. Gould several years
ago at an entertainment at which I ap-
peared, either at Sherry's or at Delmoni-
cos, I forget which. 1 never knew her
| except as an acquaintance. AS for Mr.
GouId's statement that l met his wife
in Philadelphia, that is all bosh. / never
saw her there. It is not true, either, that
she ever took me 10 the theater in her
automobile. / have my own touring car.

/ have never been in the habit OF allow
ing any woman to carry me around in the
fashion that is charged by Mr.. Gould"

The actor resented especially the in
sinuation that he was acting In an un-
becoming manner with Mrs. Gould in one
Of the public rooms Of the Hotel st.
Regis, and declared that suit for dam
ages against Mr. Gould would probably
result.
Il was at the st. Regis twice" said
Mr Farnum. Once, in company with
four other persons. was in the parlor of
Mrs. Gould's apartments. The other
time, with six persons present, 1 was in
one of the public restaurants of the St.

there with Mr. FaTnum.

DEMOCRATS WIN KANSAS CITY.
Successful Candidate Stands for a
wide-open Town.

Kansas City, April 7.-At IL o'clock to-
night the indications are that the whole
Democratic ticket is elected although the
Republicans assert that the majority of
16eo given Henry NJ Beardsley two
years ago has not been wiped out.
The issue in the city campaign was the
public utilities commission. made possible
by the last Missouri legislature. and ere
ated for the regulation of public service
corporations Henry NJ Beardsley prom
ised to appoint a commission that would
do something to lower street car rates
and electric light rates.
The Dempcratic candidate, Mr. Critten-
den. jr.. son of ex-Gov. Crittenden. prom
ised the same thing, although IT was gen.
erauy recognized that the metropolitan
Street Railroad Company was supporting
| Crittenden, from whom It expected much.
while it could hope for nothing from
Beardsley.
The indications are tonight that the
good government ticket was slaughtered
in the silk-stockiug ward. Another fea-
ture of the Crittenden campaign which
had great effect was the fact that Crit
tenden stood for a wide-open town.

DR.. Koch never had been in America be-
FORE and he was busy looking at the big
buildings Of the town and the beauties
of the harbor while the liner was coming
up the bay.
There was no anti-vivisectlon law in
Germany. the doctor said. and he thought
that is the way it ought to be here. In
regard to the theory of DR.. Metchnikor
that life might be prolonged by the drink
ing Of scientifically soured milk, DR.. Koch
said:
Il know Dr. Metchnlkof. and esteem
him very highly; but I cannot say any
thing about his theory, as I do not know
anything about the cure personaIly-that
is, by personal experiment.
The doctor said he could say nothing
new about tuberculosis; everybody knew
what he had accomplished. To him the
subject was finished He said he spoke
only on matters which he had studied
himself, and, therefore, could give no
opinion on anything else

Milwaukee, April Tin the Eleventh
Congressional district Of Wisconsin to-
day there was a straight-out tight Tor dele
gates to the national convention between
the La Toilette men and the Roosevelt
Taft forces. IN addition. there was a
prinlary struggle throughout the State for
the election or four delegates-at-large
-Four weeks ago Wisconsin was con-
ceded TO La Toilette, but when his sup
porters in Idaho Colorado. Minnesota,
Montana and other states took the field
against Taft the Federal forces organized
in Wisconsin,.
Followers Are DIsarmed.
Then the Secretary Of War wrote a let
ter. IN which he said that he would dis
eountenance an effort to win delegates
from La Toilette. This disarmed the
Wisconsin Senator's forces for the time
being, but ten days ago they recognized
that the Federal men had organized in
every voting precinct in the State.
The Taft men began "a gum-shoe con-
test, and seemingly We're weu supplied
with money More than a week ago.
with the assistance Of Federal Office
holders, they had more than a skeleton
organization in every town. They played
good politics also in getting the La Fol-
lette men fighting among themselves.
As a result, to-day there were two sets
of La Toilette delegates in three of the
eleven Congressional districts.
La Toilette Wins in Eighth.
In the Eighth district the fight between
the rival La Toilette men was 50 bitter
that the Taft men tonight were claiming
that they would slip in two delegates at
least from Wisconsin. Returns. however,
from Calumet, Portage. and Winnebago
counties make it appear that the La Fol-
lette men won nearly two 10 one in the
Eighth district, each La Toilette ticket
obtaining more votes than were cast for
the Federal forces.
Reports from three OF the dive coun-
ties in the Sixth Congressional district
indicate that under the worst conditions
from political point Of view La Toilette
has won a decided victory. This district
is Democratic by several thousands and.
therefore. the Republican organization is
controlled largely by the Federal Office
holders
This makes it certain that the four
delegates-at-laTge viii also be for La
Toilette. Every influence that the Fed
eral men could bring into the canvass
in the last week leaves no doubt that the
sentiment of the state is against Taft.
