HENRY COOK Will SUST aimed BY COURT
Widow Gets ALL;
The Daughter
Is Barred.
MAY APPEAL IT.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

SPecFut ~ the ~ bNINO NE W6.
New Brunswick, Dec. 23:-Judge
Booraem, this morning, rendered q
decision in the Henry Cook will case
In favor of the will and ordered the
document admitted to probate. The
will leaves all the property to the
widow. 1t was contested by a daugh-
ter, Mrs. Adelaide Chambers, who
has lived in Arizona for the past six
teen years or more. She claimed
that undue influence was used upon
her father in drawing the will and
also that he was insane at the tim G
II was signed.
Not Unnatural VIII.
In rendering his decision Judge
Booraem said that the burden of the
proof rested with the daughter and
that he found no evidence to war
rant the conclusion that Mrs. Cook
exercised any undue influence upon
her husband in drawing the will.
He declared that the will is not an
unnatural one under the circum-
stances. 1t was true, the court said,
that the father made no provision
for the daughter, but she had not
visited him in sixteen years and from
her own testimony, the Judge said,
she made but little effort to commnn-
icate with him. The judge conclud-
ed. therefore, that 1t is not strange
that the wife Is favored more than
the daughter.
Insanity Not Shown.
AS to the second claim, that of in
sanity, the court said that 1t was
admitted that, at the time of his
death, Mr.. Cook was suffering with
mental disorders and had several de-
lusions. The opinion then explained
what these delusions were.
The will was executed August IA,
1908, by Judge Adrian Lyon, of
Perth Amboy, after instructions had
been provided. The mere fact that
Judge Lyon drew and witnessed the
will, the court held, is q circum-
stance In favor OF It's validity. The
court said that Judge Lyon would
not have drawn and witnessed the
document If Mr.. Cook had not been
in proper condition to sign it.
Shortly after this Mr.. Cook was
taken to private sanitarium, where
he died at the age of seventy-five
years.
The Physicians Testimony.
The opinion went on to say that
the testimony of the physicians was
not satisfactory to the court. 1t did
not clearly bring out the facts as to
the mental condition of Mr.. Cook.
In closing, Judge Booraem said
Il am thoroughly of the opinion
that the testator at the time of the
of the will was not suffer-
Ing from the delusion that he pre-
viously manifested; that his testa-
act was not the result there
Of, and that he possessed sufficient
mental capacity under our decision
TO enable him to properly execute
and publish the instrument In ques-
ion as his last will and testament"

HOW SOON WILL OUR OIL
FIELDS BE EXHAUSTED

The amount of oil obtainatle from
these known fields is OF course only a
matter of conjecture based u;,cn what
the fields have yielded already and
upon the thickners and relative ror.
ostty Of the 1ii-bear11:g strat7. The
estimates Of different authorities will
vary between wide limits. but they Will
all agree that tha known fields are
being exhausted at a rate so rapid as
to mean cessation OF the industry
within q few decades unless the ex-
pected new fields are found, and this
reliance upon unknown sources of sup
ply after a few decades seems to be
the Characteristic attitude, as if these
new fields Of great size were fore
gone conclusion.
With the certainty OF exhaustion of
the present ftalds by the present gem
eration, 1t Is not a matter OF vital ar
gument whether such exhaustion
comes in ten years of forty. For ex-
ample, the available petroleum in the
actual productive areas Of the West
Virginia fields haS been estimated by
Dr. I. c. White, State Geologist, as
roughly 5000 barrels per acre. This Is
far more than has been obtained In, the
Pennsylvania and New York region
OF than is likely to be Obtained there
before the exhaust5on OF the field.
Eight hundred barrels per acre would
be nearer the average yield for the
total area considered as oil bearing.
In other States. small areas. such as
Spindle Top. Texas, have yielded tar
more than 500 barrels per acre. II
such a large average Is assumed for.
the known fields Of the United States.
q total product of twenty-five billion;
't26. 600, ooo.oool barrels would be ex-
peeted before the preesnt fields are
exhausted. Judging, however, by the
rate OF decrease IL the older fields, a
yield of 1000 barrels per acre would
seam ample except for. the Gulf, iii.
