INCREASE IN OIL PRODUCTION.
Output of Nearly 220 Million Barrels
Reported for 1911 by D. s.
Geological Survey.

The production of petroleum in
1911 increased slightly over the re-
cord-breaking figures of 1910 more
over the industry assumed stead
:er condition, owing to the absence
of the very disturbing incidents Of
1910, such as the bringing in of the
Lakeview gusher and other great
wells in California. The trade had
also accustomed itself to the unusual
wells in the Cadda oil field of
Louisiana.
The most striking feature of the
year in the petroleum industry was
the Development of the Electra oil
field In northern Texas.
The total production for the U. 8.
is between 215,OOO,OO0 and 100000
600 barrels. The gain in a single
State California-was greater than
the net gain shown for the country
as whole, the usual decline in the
older districts offsetting the increase
in the Middle West and South. Once
more the refining interests and mar
keters of fuel oils, etc., have by
strenuous efforts almost compen-
stated the increased production by
bringing about an increase in con.
sumption. There is no longer much
doubt that a plentiful oil supply
will be afforded for many years
rather, the general feeling expressed
by the question "Where will oil
break out next" is a distributing
element.

BURGLAR DROPS DEAD,
PIERCED BY EIGHT BALLS.

NEW YORK, Feb. Eight police
men took up the pursuit Of an un-
identified negro burglar early today
after he had broken the plate-glass
window Of a drug store on Seventh
avenue IN the n~eighborhood of the new
Pennsylvania station. The negro car
ried a revolver in each hand and fired
repeatedly into the air as he ran. At
the corner Of Twenty-seventh street
he turned on his p%ursuers, but before
he could fire every n of the eight
policemen had drawn his revolver and
sent a shot whizzing toward the negro.
The burglar dropped to the street. and
was dead when the first policeman
reached his side.
Surgeons found eight bullets In the
body, any one Of which would have
caused death. Both of the negroes
guns had been emptied in his flight.

Two Ill; He May
Break Up Home
Mrs. Roger in Hospital With
Sick Baby.

With his wife, said to be demented,
and his 9-month-old baby In the same
hospital suffering with an acute attack
of bronchitis, James Roger, of 400 North
Fifth street, is contemplating the
breaking up of the home which he and
his wife made five years ago and
which, until sickness reached them,
was very happy.
Some time before the birth of the
second child the young wife suffered
from a complaint which affected her
brain, and the husband was forced to
send her to Overlook Asylum, where
she remained until after the birth of
the second child. She left there after
Frances was born and seemed much
improved.
Last Sunday Mrs. Rogers condition
again grew serious, and the husband
was forced to remain away from work
on Monday to nurse her. Yesterday he
asked the assistance of the police, and
the wife was again sent to the City
Hospital, and the condition of the
child became so serious that it was SEM
to the Institution within three hours
after the mother was sent there.
The husband fears that his wife's
condition is incurable, and II this
proves the decision OF the doctors, he
says he will be forced to break up his
home.

structed devices for lowering the power
Of the current and applied the electric

In time, all Wiederman had to do
around home was to read and study his

chores. He had many ingenious de-
vices for tightening labor, all run by
free current from the West Jersey and
Seashore railroad.

HOBOKEN, Feb. 1.-Looking at the

bride to the "Hoboken Seer other
wise Professor Gustav Meyer, who was
married to Mrs. Cook Areta by Justice
Charles H. Wareing last evening at 81
Second. street, this city. The seer
had predicted the brides divorce from

himself.
Mrs. Areta lives at 1923 Garden street
and two years ago she possessed a nus
band, John Areta. She went to see the
"~seer," who lives at 725 Washington
street, to have him lift the dark curtain
from her future.
The seer consulted the stars and in
formed Mrs. Areta that she would be
divorced and remarked within two
years. She went away sorrowful. The
seer a year later cast his own horo-
scope, and 1t told him that he was to
marry Mrs. Areta.

FAILS;
BRUNSTAKES
LIFE IN BED
Two Daughters Find Father
Dead With Rope Around
His Neck.

The fear that he was becoming blind
led John Bruins, 4s years Did. of Go
Pierce street, to commit suicide at his
home by hanging himself in his bed.
The discovery was made by the mans
two daughters. Elsa, IL years, and
Helen. 18 years Did. He had a quarrel
with his youngest daughter over her
school lessons two nights ago. That
was the last seen of him alive by his
daughters.
When the father failed to put in an
appearance for his breakfast yesterday
Elsa became alarmed. She went to
the door and called to her father. She
received no answer. Elsa decided to
await the Homecoming of her elder
sister. When Helen returned from busi-
ness In the evening 1t was decided to
summon the father to supper. Loud
raps at the door brought no answer
and fear seized the girls.
An extension ladder borrowed from a
nearby painter was placed against he
house and entrance forced from an
outer window. The door from the hall
way was burst open and the girls found
father stretched. across h bed
dead. A crude method was used in
seeking death. Securing a stout cord.
Bruins fastened 1t to a slat under the
bed and then bringing 1t over the top
formed a moose just high enough to
keep his head from the pillows.
-Four years g Bruins, who was a
bricklayer, lost the sight of n of his
eyes when lime spattered into 1t. OF
late his other eye had been giving him
considerable trouble, and he took to
drinking. His morose and melancholy
disposition made 1t unpleasant for the
family, and the mother was compelled
to go to an elder daughter, Mrs. Anna
Boetsch, in Boston. Since then. the
has endeavored to persuade the
other children to come to her end es-
a new home, but the girls re-
fused, preferring to remain and try to
comfort their father.
The body was removed to Holes
morgue after DR.. Mckenzie declared
death due to st~rangulation. The family
are almost destitute.
