New York, June 16.-Howard Gould
did not go on the stand today as had
been expected, to testify against his
wife. Katherine Csemmons Gould,
whose suit for separation he is oppos-
ing. Instead, there was continua-
tion of. servants accounts OF their
former mistress alleged fondness for
alcohol and of her manner when un-
der. what the witnesses said, was the
effect of liquor, and indications are
that the plaintiff must endure for an
other day, possibly for two, the en-
barrassing ordeal of listening to the
testimony of former servants, all of
whom have been called at the instance
of her husband to sustain, if possible,
his contention that living with his wife
was impracticable, and very unpleas-
ant, hence the charge of abandonment,
the mainstay of Mrs. Goulds case is
not borne out.
Tried to Drive Through Closed Gate.
Coachman, gardener, chambermaid
and other servants were upon the
stand, and swore to the demeanor OF
the woman who used to give them or
ders. On one occasion she would have
fallen from her carriage but for the
protecting arm of a coachman, an at
tempt by her to drive through closed
gate; a time when a footman saved
her from falling when intoxicated, so
he testified, were among the things al
legged as Long Island rustics or former
servants took the witness stand. As
yesterday, Mrs. Gould was greatly
moved when she heard these declara-
tions and she has evinced her inten-
tion of fighting them bitterly in re-
buttal.
"She Was Decidedly Drunk."-carPen-
ter's Testimony.
A carpenter, Herbert Trotter, was
the last witness of the day. He said
when he was working in the servants 5
quarters Mrs. Gould rushed in there
once and swore at and abused the
servants.
Her voice was shaky and incoher-
ent, her hair dishevelled and she was
very profane She was decidedly
drunk" said the witness.
AT another time she came into the
stables while | was working there and
swore at the groom, and was so drunk
that everyone could tell she was
drunk, he continued.
She tried to go up stairs to the
harness room but could not navigate
the steps" he added emphatically.
Trotter said he was ordered to go
to Blue Gap farm. the Gould place
in Virginia, and saw Mrs. Gould in
toxicated upon his arrival there. On

The renovation of the local court
house as contemplated in the report of
the county commissioners made at
Hartford on Wednesday means that
the court room and the adjacent rooms
and Railways and the county commits
sioners' room and the clerks office are
to be put in proper shape. This will
be the first renovation since the build

the walls and the redecoration of them
will put the court quarters in the
building in absolutely perfect condi-
tion. The rooms bear evidence of the
need of the renovation.
