PROBATE WILL
OF MRS. COOK
Daughter Will Receive $50
a Month If She Stays Out
of New Jersey,
MUST NOT ENTER STATE
Other Relatives Will Divide
Large Estate Leaves S.
600 to Her Sister.
MUST NOT ENTER STATE

If Mrs. Adelaide C. Chambers,
only child of the late Mrs. Mary j.
Cook, wishes to receive her appor-
tionment of the estate left by her
mother, which is $40 a month, she
must remain out of the state of New
Jersey. The will, admitted to pro-
bate yesterday, shows that the estate,
on which no value was placed, is
divided among other relatives and
one Of the executors. The largest
heir is understood to be the latter,
who looked after Mrs. Cooks busi-
ness affairs while she was alive.
Mrs. Cooks decision in regard to
the will prevents her daughter from
entering this state to contest the
document. The instrument provides
that Mrs. Chambers shall receive $50
month IL she remains outside OF
this state. The income is to cease
at any time she enters the state.
In the concluding article of the
will, Mrs. Cook refers to her action
toward her daughter as follows:
For reasons satisfactory to my
self and we'll understood by my
daughter Adelaide, 1t Is my will, and
/ hereby direct that she shall not In
any manner participate in my estate
or have any right or interest therein
except as provided"
Mrs. Cook is understood to have
become at odds with her daughter at
her first marriage. Mrs. Chambers
now lives on ranch at wilcox, Ariz.
As it Is claimed she spent considera-
BILE money to break the will OF her
late father, Henry G, Cook, who own
ed considerable property In this city,
it is doubtful that she will make an
attempt to upset the will of her
mother.
The last will was executed Decem-
Der IA, 1911. The largest specific
gift was $4,000 to sister, Mrs.
Emeline A. De Noyelies, in whose
home Mrs. Cook died April at 290
Hillcrest terrace. East Orange.

MRS. EATON IN
INSANITY TEST
Believe One Will be ARRANGED
in Few Days.
Special by United Press t..irc.

Norwell, Mass, April 16-Rumors
that an insanity test may be ar
ranged within a few days for Mrs.
Jennie w. Eaton, in jail at Plymouth
awaiting trial In June for the alleged
murder of her husband, Admiral
Joseph G. Eaton, were heard here to-
day following a telephone conversa-
tion between District Attorney Bark
er, of Brocton, and State officer
Scott, who has continued to work on
the case since Mrs. Eaton's indict-
ment.
Attorneys William A. Morse and
Francis Geogan, Mrs. Eaton's coun-
sci, stated today that they are conf
dent In the strength of their de-
fense. They charge that the prose-
cution is attempting to secure a de-
lay by reopening the inquest, know
ing that the case against Mrs. Eaton
is weak. That D. H. Ainsworth, Mrs.
Eaton's first husband, has been locat-
ed, Is known. 1t is believed that he
Is in Nevada. One of the officials
connected with the investigation, al
though refusing to diyulge his exact
whereabouts, declared that the au-
thorities "can lay their hand ON him
at any time" Some time this week
Attorney Goegan will probably visit
Mrs. Eaton in the Plymouth Jail,
where she continues to take notes
to be used in her own defense.

SOUTH POLE TO
SPEAK IN CITY
United Danish Societies OF
Perth kmboy Plan to Hear
Famous Explorer.
EXPECT AMUNDSEN TO
VISIT AMB0Y JUNE 29
May Secure Proctor's Theatre
for Occasion Progress Made
in Huge Undertaking.

Captain Roald Amundsen, the
noted explorer who discovered the
south pole, will lecture in this city
in June if plans started last night by
a general committee of the United
Danish Societies materialize. Prepa-
rations are being made to have him
render an interesting lecture on his
discovery of the pole, probably in
Proctor's theatre. He will speak in
the English language, most likely on
Sunday, June 20. Proceeds above
the cost of procuring the explorer
will go to the Home for the Aged
and the Orphans Home in this city.
The general committee of Danish
societies has also begun preparation
for their annual monster excursion
from this city. 1t appears unlikely
at this time that this years excur-
sion will go to Bellewood Park again.
The Danish societies have engi-
neered some big propositions which
have been of benefit to the communi-
ty at large. In their latest venture
to have the south pole discoyerer
lecture here, they believe that they
have stretched several points beyond
past endeavors. From now ON the
general committee of the societies
will work with every effort to make
plans for the lecture. The members
believe that Proctor's theatre, II 1t
can be procured for the occasion,
will be filled to the doors when Cap
tain Amundsen begins his interesting
talk.

GRASP MAN AS
IF IN A WISE
BETWEEN CARS
Joseph MeIaski of Barber
Plant In Hospital With
Serious Injuries.
CONCUSSl0k OF BRAIN
AND HURT INTERNALLY
Unconscious When Removed
by Fellow Workmen--Car
Backed to Free Him

Standing on the track. between a
stationary and a moving car, Joseph
Melaski. of 344 Thomas street. was
knocked unconscious and probably
seriously injured internally when the
two cars came together about 5
O'Clock yesterday afternoon at the
Barber Asphalt Paving Company's
plant.
Melaski was employed in the wood
block preserving department, and af-
ter loading a dinkey car with the
blocks he was standing on the track
awaiting to help fill another car. He
did not see full car, which was
being pushed to connect with the one
he had just loaded, and knew moth
ing of its approach until the moving
conveyor had cought him. 1t threw
hun with much force against the
stationary car, on which he struck
his head, lapsing into unconscious
ness Immediately. His body about
the waist was held fast between the
two cars until his fellow workmen
could back one of the conveyors.
When extricated from the wise
formed by the coming together of
the two cars he was still unconscious
Dr. William e. Ramsay was called
and found the man had suffered con-
cussion of the brain, and after the
victim had regained consciousness,
had him removed to the city hospital
Though the doctor found only slight
external injuries on the man, he
thought best to have his taken to
the institution lest internal injuries
should develop.

FLOUR SUIT IS
BEING ARGUED.
New York Concerns Action
Against Local Baker.

Claiming that because the price of
-four had decreased between aGS
months of April and November, 1912,
and that the defendant refused to re-
ceiye fifty barrels of -four after the
fall in price, though he had contract
ed for it in April, the George A.
Zabrishie Company, of New York,
has instituted suit in the district
court against William l. Stern, of
Perth Amboy, for $57 100, the differs
ence betweep the price OF the -four
April 20 and November 26, when the
concern claims to have sold the fifty
barrels. The trial of the action be-
gan late yesterday afternoon and
was adjourned until next Tuesday by
Judge John W. Beekman. Leo Gold
berger represents the defendant, and
John Lloyd, of Matawan, represents
the plaintiff.
Frederick Schop, a salesman for
the -four concern, testified that he
had sold Mr.. Stern a bill of -four to
be ordered as the purchaser needed
same. The fifty barrels, he said,
were not ordered in November, when,
desiring to close the original con-
tract, he asked Mr.. Stern to allow
him to ship the goods, which the de-
fendant would not permit. There
upon, he stated. he sold the flour for
$3.50 per barrel to r. G. Bechtel. q
local baker. This was $1.15 per bar
rel less than Mr.. Stern had contract
ed to pay. The defense claimed that
Mr.. Stern wanted the fifty barrels to
be shipped, but as the defendant
owed the concern, the company
would not ship the goods until that
debt had been settled, and that since
the company would not extend the
defendants credit, the latter should
not be held responsible for the origi-
nal order under those conditions

SILK DRESSES
OF SCRAP IRON
Paterson Strikers Tell Some
Secrets of Trade.
Special ty United Press Wire.

!
Paterson, April 16:-Not from the
cocoon of the silk worm, but from
the rusty horseshoe, scrap iron and
empty tomato cans on the city's
dump comes the silk that makes
m1lady's clinging gowns and the
bright hue neckties of her escort,
according to the men who labor in
the silk mills at Paterson. Render.
! ed desperate by the two months
! struggle to obtain their demands, the
$4,000 silk strikers today began a
systematic exposure of what is claim
ed to be the secret of their trade.
Led by William d. Haywood, a
group of skilled silk mill operators
today made public the secret of the
tin dress" THE silk dress that
the average woman takes such pride
in," declared Haywood as spokesman
for the group, sis not really silk
dress at all, but tin dress. 1t is
composed of one part silk fibre to six
parts tin, iron, lead and silk. The
metal comes from the scrap heap
back of the factory. 1t Is dumped
into vats and treated chemically to
make q solution. The raw silk Is
dipped into the solution and when
taken out and dried the fibres have
absorbed from four to six times their
weight in metal
Turning to the silk workers be-
hind him Haywood continued: How
much real, old fashioned, good silk
is made In these days in this country
under the famous protective tariff
You fellows know how much or how
little. The tariff has not benefited
you in the least and its reduction
will not help you, but 1t will force
the manufacturers to make decent
silk You know what happened to
the regular run of silk If you lay a
piece away or hang It up for few
months. 1t rots to pieces. You fell
lows know why. 1t is the effect of
the solution OF old horseshoes, tin
cans and scrap iron that the raw
material has been dipped into, in
creasing it's weight six times"
Haywood's remarks were corrobo-
rated by a dozen striking dye house
workers who described the process
by which they claim the skeins OF
raw silk were more than quadrupled
in weight by the absorption OF metal
lie composition so as to appear,
when woven, to be heavy silk. The
silk most heavily weighted with
metal, the strikers said, are those
used mainly for dress goods, lining,
neckties and ribbon. Very light
weight and undyed silk. they said,
cannot be so heavily adnlterated.
