MRS. GOULD VICTOR
COURT GRANTS MILLIONAIRE
WIFE SEPARATION AND
$4,000 A MONTH.
DECLARES SHE is PLEASED
Hsppest Woman Living Because She
Is indicated Says the Former
Aetress-lntoxicatio Not Proved
Asserts Justice Bowling.

New York, June 26.-After trial
which lasted nearly three weeks
Katherine Clemmons Gould obtained
a legal separation from her husband,
Howard Gould, third son of the late
Jay Could by a decision of Justice
Bowling in the supreme court.
With the exception of alimony her
victory was complete, but in this
phase of the case the court decided
that $4,000 year was sufficient, al.
though in her suit Mrs Gould asked
Tor S250,000. She has been receiving
$500 a year from Mr.. Gould, so that
the amount fixed by the court is but
a slight increase compared with the
amount sued for. If Mrs. Gould re-
turns to the stage the amount may
be reduced.
Immediately after. the decision,
De Lancey Nicoll, for Mr. Gould,
asked for 6O-day stay of judgment
and Clarence j. Shearn, for the plain.
tiff, asked for an immediate judgment
Justice Bowling compromised by
making the stay 30 days.
Soulu DeCllneS 10 ak.
Howard Gould hurried from the
room as soon as the decision was
given and declined to discuss the
case. Mrs. Gould left the court with
Mr.. Shearn and drove away in an
automobile
Mr.. Shearn, jubilant at the decision
was eager to discuss 1t.
Judge Dowlings decision" he said
us a sweeping and complete vindica-
ton OF Mrs. Gould. That has been
the object of all this bitter litigation
Mrs. Gould could have compromised
for a fortune at any time but would
never consider for a moment any.
thing but the opportunity of clearing
her name in an open, public trial"
Mrs. Gould Is Happy.
Mrs. Gould isued the following
statement:
II am the happiest woman living
because | have been so completely
vindicated before the entire world of
all these horrible charges. Not one
little pang shot through my heart at
the smallness of the allowance-only
supreme joy and the deepest graft.

Justice Dowling's decision says In
part:
so far as the defense has sought
to substantiate by proof its allega.
tions of gross habitual intoxication
upon the part of the plaintiff, not only
has the defendant failed to support
that allegation by satisfactory proof,
but on the contrary, the plaintiff has
gone beyond what she was directly
required to do and l find affirmative.
ly that the preponderance of testi.
mony is overwhelmingly In her favor.
It is apparent that many OF these
episodes as to which even the credit.

element, or some sudden anger. ]
find that the case is barren OF

habitual intoxication or of undue In.
dulgence in intoxicating liquors on
the part of the plaintiff"

COMPETITION MARRIED BY RAIN
EARLY MORNING WORK AT
SEAGIRT PREVENTED.
Program Included Dryden Trophy
Match-Scores Made by District
Marksmen Yesterday.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
SEAGIRT, n. J., September l0.-Rain,
the bugbear of the rif1emen. as we'll as OF
the soldiers when in camp, put more
than a damper on the spirits of the sew
eral hundred enthusiastic crack shots who
have been participating in the joint tour
nament of the New Jersey, New York and
Pennsylvania Rife Associations. and who
had looked forward to the big day" OF
the meeting. The trophy men who were
designated on the seven teams entered for
the competition for the handsome Dryden
trophy were sent to bed early by team
captains last night. like a lot of school
children. 1t was not long after the dawn
of day, and the bugle had sounded reveille
that the slumbers of the sanguine marks
men were disturbed by the pattering OF
the rain drops on the canvas tents.
The rain fell steadily after breakfast
and the rifiemen assembled at the club
house of the New Jersey State Rifle Asso-
citation in a dispirited manner. Shooting
was out of the question early In the
morning on account of the steady down
pour, which made it impossible for the
pastors to remain on the targets. How
ever, the men from the United States Ma
rine Corps who have been acting as
markers were sent to the pits and held
in readiness for lull in the storm.
The program for the day covered the
Dryden trophy match for teams OF eight
men, to be shot at 200. 600 and LOCO
yards; the press match at 800 yards.
and the Libbey trophy match at Lou
yards-two sighting shots and out when
failing to hit the bull's-eye.
The program tomorrow Is also big
one, including the Seagirt championship
match.
