GOULDS SUE JURIST
 FOR BUSINESS DEBT
FILE CLAIM IN SUPERIOR COURT OF S2s. s.6ss.6s IN LAND DEAL
 HoUGH EsxPEETs TO FAY.

papsK5 wsesA filed today in the Spv perior Court in an action brought by George J. Gould, Edwin Gould. Helen M. Gould and Howard Gould, execu- tors and trustees of the. will of the late Jay Gould against Judge Bene- get A lHought of eDanbury, in which d claim of $28,688.65 is made.
 It is held Judge sHough entered in- to an agreement with the Gould es- tate on June 22, 1896, for the pos session and control of the "Red Field Lands, in Arkansas, then owned by the Gould interests. It is alleged that between June 1 1896, and Aug. 7. 1907, five payments amounting to $50, 0,361.44 were made upon the con- tract, but that there remains unpaid a balance of $28, 8,6S8.65.
 Danbury, Aug. 2S.-Judge Hough says the Gould claims were correct, but that by agreement with George Gould he had been making payments upon the property from time to time as he received proceeds from the sales of the land.
 This course had been satisfactory v to Mr. Gould, he said, and a shorl time ago he discussed a proposition for the payment of the balance of the account Mir. Gould went abroad re- gently, Judge Hough said, aud the land transaction was left in the hands of his lawyers.
 The suit brought in the name of the estate was complete surprise to Judge Hough, as no demand for pay ment had been made upon him and suit had been instituted during the pendency of negotiations for settle ment, he said. Judge Eough declared he expected to pay the claim as soon as he could arrange it.
