GOULD DENIES WRONG
WIFE EXACTS ANSWER IN b.
vORCE SUIT.
Husband Does Not Make Counter
charge as Anticipated, But
Defends Himself.

NEW YORK. August 13.-Frank ].
Gould filed yesterday an emphatic and
general denial of his wife's sensational
complaint, which was served on him June
"a in her action for absolute divorce. His
answer contains less than one hundred
words and seeks to establish no alibi.
Contrary to the expectations Of Mr..
Gould's friends. there are no counter ac
cusations.
Mrs Gould's lawyers are determined to
have no delay in the divorce proceeding
confident that they have amassed suff1-
eient evidence for their client Henry l..
Sprague of Stetson. Jennings & RUSSELL
her counsel. filed her complaint yester-
day. He requested Supreme Court Jus
tice Goff to sign an order Immediately d.
recting her husband or his lawyers to file
his answer within twenty-four hours. The
court acceded and further directed that
If he did not file it his answer would be
deemed abandoned.
Mr.. Gould's lawyers. Nicoll. Anable,
Jennings & Fuller. were considerably sur
pr1sed to find that Mrs Gould intended
to rush the, case SO rapidly. Such an
order as Justice Golf issued is very I'M
usual in divorce litigations.
The papers did not disclose why Mrs.
Gould's counsel obtained the order or the
reasons why they are so anxious to have
MI. doulO answer placed on record
No application for referee has been
made. Though there is still time to make
one. 1t is understood that Mrs. Gould de-
ssires to have the case tried in open court.
Mrs. Gould's complaint alleges that
July %. 1908. less than four years after
their marriage. Mr.. Gould cruised on the
yacht Helenita to North Sidney. Cape
Breton. and was guilty of misconduct in
a resort there. She asks for the custody
of the two children. Helen Marget, six
years old. and Dorothy. five years old.
Mr.. Gould. it is known, is determined to
have partial custody of his children, and
is opposing separation largely for that
reason.
