New York, April That Prince He
ne de sagan 10 a sutton for the hand
on Madame Anna Gould. Is announced
BY the Prince himself, in statement
IN which he says that Madame Gould
will sail for France very soon after
his own departure which Is set for
April o.
The announcement of the Prince was
made coincident with the circulation
OF reports that Madame Gould has
auarreled with her family because of
her determination to marry de Sagan.
Nine. Could fs quoted as saying that
. she shall not longer be oppressed and
ruled by her family" that at last "she
has asserted herself and shall abide by
her own decision
Madame Gould has left the home OF
1her sister Miss Helen Gould with
Whom che had been staying since her
arrival from France; more than week
ago, and is living with friends at the
Hotel st.. Regis. Not only is senti-
ment, but money as we'll involved in
the break between Mime. Gould and
the members Of her family. The will
by which Jay Gould disposed of his
fortune contained a codicil which may
have a permanent part in developments
should there follow a prolongation of
the family trouble. This codicil pro-
vided that any OF his children who
should marry without first gaining the
consent OF the other sons and daugh-
tiers, should forfeit one-half of his or
her interest In the estate. In Madame
Gould's case the one-half interest is
variously estimated at between $4,000
900 and $4,000. 600.
II is said to be the contention of
Madame Gould, however. that this pro-
vision OF the will was abrogated as
far as she is concerned, when the con-
- 49, - 80 ere
given to her marriage with Count Boni
de Castellane. Having taken this posi-
ton she is said to have retained a per-
manent firm OF attitude with large In
tefests both in New York and Paris,
and to have Informed relatives at the
last family conference that she is pre-
pared to hight II necessary. for what
she regards as her right to her entire
share OF the fortune left by her father.
Madame Gould is i'll in her apart
fhents at the st. Regis and the date of
her departure for Europe Is believed to
be largely dependent upon the rapid
ity with which she RECEIVERS.
Mrs. Tyler Morse. with whom Madame
Gould is stopping at the st. Regis Ho-
tel. said today:
at am authorized to say for Madame
nouncennent of her engagement made in
this city. The engagement will be
>pubifcly made In France. according to
soertain formalities that must be OBJ
served there, as Madame Gould is
citizen OF France. Madame Gould
should arrive in Paris before the end
81 the month IL her health permits. as
err I cannot say how soon Madame
Could will give her answer to the
Prince but II will not be made publicly
known in this country"
