Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
NEW YORK March Chime. Gould
last evening left the home of her sister.
Miss Helen Gould, and went to stay at
the Hotel ST. Regis with her friends. Mr..
and Mrs. Tyler Morse. That this indicated
break between Nine. Gould and her
family because of their opposition to the
suit of the Prince de Sagan was denied
| this morning by Mr.. Tyler Morse. Who
said: Nine. Gould is i'll in the apartments
of Mrs. Morse. She has a slight attack
of bronchitis. but it Is not serious. 4
physician attended her last evening. She
will stay with us for some days. There
has been no break between her and her
sister,
In the separation of the sisters intimate
| spectators OF what has been going on in
| the Gould family ever since de Sagan fol-
| lowed Mime. Gould to this country nearly
two weeks ago. believe they see the bid
ding to defiance to the wishes Of George
| Gould that Anna give the Frenchman
the mitten. 1t would not surprise these
persons any day now to hear of a formal
engagement announcement. even the
| news that marriage had taken place.
Would Be Nearer the Prince.
The former wife of Count Boni de Cas-
| telane will be freer a the Hotel St. Regis
than in the home of her sister. and no
doubt the surroundings will he more con-
genial. The good friends and compa Mons
| of herself and the prince. Tyler W. Morse
| and his wife. are living there, and il has
| been in their apartment that Nine. Gould
and her titled sutton have been able to
see each other frequently. The prince
| spent Sunday there In Nine. GOuld's com
pany. He was with her there yesterday
| afternoon in party made up of the
Morsas and Col Jay and Mrs. Jay. The
| prince ate dinner last night at Sherry's.
but whether Nine. Gould accompanied him
| or not Is not known.
! Bon de Castellane's three sons were
seen at the St. Regis yesterday in a pony
cart One of them visited Harry Fuller
| Black. a young son OF Mrs. Morse. Mrs.
Morse is a daughter of millionaire con-
tractor and divorced her first husband
| If Nine Gould should marry Prince de
Sagan in opposition to the wishes of
| George Gould she must pay heavy pen
atty. Under the terms of the will of her
father none OF his children can marry
without first obtaining the unanimous
| consent and approval of the others.
Prince Would Cost Her Millions.
II is provided that should any child dis
obey this injunction he or she shall for
felt one-half of his interest in the estate
1t has been variously estimated that
Anna GouIdS inheritance amounts to be-
tween $12.OOO,OOo and $4,000 900. so the
prince would consequently cost her dear
When. Howard Gould married Katherine
Clemmons in opposition to the wishes Of
his brother George it cost him 5000
600.
George Edwin and Helen Gould. il is
believed are one in opposing match
with de Sagan. although neither Edwin
nor Helen has gone to such pains a. their
eldest brother to make it known that
they do not want nm or any other titled
foreigner in the family. George Gould's
experience as brother-in-law of Count
Boni de Castellane, de Sagans first cous-
in. is sufficient to last him lifetime.
Besides losing half of her Inheritance
should she marry him. the prince must
know that Nine. Gould can only enjoy
the income from the remainder and can
not make any settlement upon him. Jay
Gould planned things thus in his will
When Bon de Castelane married Anna
Gould he got no more of a dowry from
his bride than sufficient advances to sat
isfy his most pressing creditors.
