TTTTT' XTT7W YANDERBILT INSANE IS JURY'S YERDICT Neither Aeed Man Nor His "Medium VVife Witnesses Daughter's Triumph. MAY TRY TO ANNUL UNION Jury, Out All Night, Takea 29 Ballots and Nearly Comes to Blows Before Agreeing.

Edward Ward Vanderbllt. the aged hus band of Mrs. May pepper-Vanderbllt. the Brooklyn medium, was pronounced mentally Incompetent yesterday morning by a Jury before the commission appointed by Supreme Court Justice" Maddox. The verdict was only returned after the Jury had deliberated all night, and they appeared tired and uninterested when the foreman handed Presiding Commissioner Ketcham the sealed envelope containing the ver dict.

An anxious hush of expectancy per vaded the court, however, as the Commissioner deliberately opened the envel ope and slowly read the verdict. Neither Mr. Vanderbllt nor his medium wife was present, but seated beside ber youthful attorneys was the respondent's daughter. Miss Minerva Vanderbllt, and not far away sat bis aged brother and slater, all of whom evidenced their pleasure at the verdict. Judge Griffing, counsel for the re spondent, immediately requested a poll of the Jury, which waa taken, with the result that twelve of the fifteen men ad mitted their conviction that the aged bridegroom of Mrs.

Pepper la Insane. The dissenting Jurors were Otto Went. Luke Sault, and R. C. Baker.

It was afterward learned that the first ballot bad resulted 11 to 4 In favor of the petitioners" contention that Vanderbllt Is Insane. This ballot was taken shortly after the Jury retired Wednes day afternoon at 3 o'clock. Twenty-nine ballots were taken before Thomas Law-lor, one of the minority, changed his mind and cast the deciding vote, making complete tho necessary twelve concurring votes for a verdict. This result was not reached until 0:15 yesterday morning. According to the admission anerwara made by several of the Jurymen, the fight in the Jury room had been bitterly waged and only the interference of several of the cooler-headed members pre vented the opposing factions from coming to blows.

After the lurv had been polled an inqui sition prepared by counsel for tho petitioners was submitted to the Jury for their signatures. The respondent's coun sel, through Judge Griff Ing, excepted to every clause of the inquisition except; those portions reciting tne various prop erties constituting Mr. Vanderbllt estate, the value of his estate, his Income, his next of kin, and the fact that they are an of age. When seen later Miss Vanderbllt stated that she was not decided whether she would take steps to have her father's seo-ond marriage annulled. I don't relish the idea," she said, of having such a woman as May Pepper for ray siepmoiner.

wnen Mr. vanaeroiit was seen at nis home in St. Mark's Avenue by a Times reporter, he expressed his surprise at the verdict, which soemed to rather amuse than dishearten him. He smilingly refused to say what would be his next move in the case. He also refused to allow his wife to be interviewed, saylnar that she did not wish to talk about the case.

If there Is anything you wisn to know," said Mr. Vanderbllt, I shall have to refer you to my attorneys for Information." CONTEST DE GRAUW WILL Nephew and Niece Ask Share of Estate of $3,000,000 Left to W.A.Warnock A nephew and niece of the late Mrs. Mary E. S. De Grauw, widow of CoL William W.

De Grauw of Jamaica, Queens Borough, started yesterday a contest of her will. The estate Is estimated to be worth about $3,000,000. The contestants allege testamentary Incapacity and undue Influence. The first hearing will be held to-day before Surrogate Daniel Noble of Queens Borough. Many witnesses will be called upon both sides, and the contest may be a long one.

The contestants, Mrs. Alice A. Crocker of 217 East Twenty-second Street, and Edwin B. Lewis of 74 King Street, this city, ask the court to refuse the probate of the will and divide tho estate as though the late Mrs. De Grauw had died Intestate.

In that event the principal beneficiary, William A. to whom almost the entire property was left, would receive only one quarter. Mrs. De Grauw was born In 1830, and made her will on Nov. 17, 11)00, at the age of 70.

The very large property left by Col. William W. De Grauw to his. wife was distributed bv her In accordance with his wishes, and that, the counsel for the estate believes, will act very strongly In favor of tne validity oi tne instrument. CoL De Grauw arranged for many of the) annuities given by nis widow in tne event I that she died before himself.

The entire Eroperty was left to her If she survived irn. Mrs. De Grauw's will names William A. Warnock and Charles A. Wlllets as executors, and Is a model of clearness.

It waa drawn by William W. Glllen of Gtllen Weller. Lawyer GUlen was formerly Deputy Surrogate of Queens for many years under the late Surrogate Weller. A large sum of money is tied up In trust to provide for annuities. But upon the death of those who benefit by this provision the principal reverts to William A.

Warnock. the favorite nephew. Mr. Warnock, who Is President of the Jamaica Savings Bank and a Director and shareholder in numerous other financial institutions. Is the son of Mrs.

De Grauw's sister. His mother died when he was 6 years old, since which time he had lived with CoL and Mrs. De Grauw. Their own children having died, he waa brought up practically as a son by them. Mrs.

Crocker and Mr. Lewis are the children of the late William F. Lewis, who waa a half brother of Mrs. Ie Grauw. I know nothing more than la told In the formal objections filed with Surrogate Noble." sr.

id Mr. Warnock last evening when questioned by The Times's correspondent. Mrs. De Grauw, ao far as my own knowledge goes, never had any quarrel or trouble of any character whatever with Mrs. Crocker or Mr.

Lewis. I should simply fay that they were not near to her. They were the children of her half brother, but she had not seen them for perhaps fifteen years or more. 1 have lived with the De Grauws since was a little boy. and my relations with thera could scarcely have been closer or mora intimate had I been a son.

I shall not worry over the outcome of the contest." The estate is represented by William W. Gillen of Jamaica, a member of the firm of Glllen Weller. The contestants are represented by James Murray of 78 William Street. "It certainly seems strange that my aunt, Mrs. De Grauw, should have made such a will, especially as she was always so lend of me.

and frequently visited me on the friendliest terms," said Mrs. Alice A. Crocker yesterday, one of the clalments to the estate of Mrs. Mary fcl f. De Grauw.

1 cannot understand why she Ignored her relatives unless of course she waa unduly influenced to do so. "She Inherited her money, which Is largely in real estate, from her husband, mho was my father's half brother, and I think I am clearly entitled to my share of it, and shall certainly, with my brother, Edwin D. Lewis, make a fight for It, When we made known our intention to contest the will yesterday her nephew, the beneficiary. William A. Warnock.

waa so surprised that his lawyers asked for a continuance until Friday." ART M. Tec la 8c Co. 929 ROADWAY TTTirroi tmT-n i aaaq. liiu a i oilTlBEK 13, 1907. CHEVALIER IN DRAMA.
