Determining Sanity.
Explaining the attitude of the fam
lily, r. Floyd Clark, the lawyer re-
tanned by Judge Charlton, said to-
night:
"The wish of the family is to see
strict judgment done, as between the
boy, the facts and the public. If there
should be a request for eXtraditiOn,
and hence, no prosecution under the
laws of New Jersey. Judge Charlton
will ask for a commission in lunacy
to determine his sons sanity. If his
son is found insane, he will be COM
mitted to an insane instutiOn. If he
is found sane-well, that is a mat
ter so far distant that I prefer not to
take it up now
Al.enists retained by the family who
examined young Charlton today, are
Charles L. Danna, professor of ner-
vous diseases in the Cornell medical
school; DR.. Edward B. Fisher; DR..
Allen Mclean Hamilton, prominent IN

HIS attitude seemed to be one Of total
Indifference.
On conclusion OF the examination,
Attorney Clarke said that no definite
conclusions had been reached and that
a further examination would be nec-
essary and would be made tomorrow.
DR.. Arlitz who visited Charlton in
his cell this morning, said before the
afternoon conference that there was
no doubt in his mind that the boy
was partially insane, but he avoided
questions as where insanity began
and partial insan nifty ended, or as to
what specific form of insanity Charl-
ton had.
Capt. Henry Harrison Scott, broth
er of Charlton's murdered wife, whose
persistency brought about the boys
capture, is positive that the prisoner
is sane.

SECURED MONEY FOR THREE
BUILDINGS AND AS MANY
BUILDING SITES

HANNA NOT ONLY
INTRODUCED BILL BUT
SECURED PASSAGE
Bills Had Been introduced for Same
Buildings by Gronna and Marshall,
but They Failed to Get bction on
Them-Best Work Ever Done BY
CONGRESSMAN in One Term.

Washington, June 24.-One OF the
greatest strokes OF legislative work
was accomplished by Congressman l..
b. Hanna Of North Dakota, when the
senate passed the sundry civil ap'
preparation bill, which carried TO-
tai appropriation OF $235,OOO for pub.
lie buildings in North Dakota.
The bill carries the following ap'
preparations:
The public building at Williiston'
100000.
The public building at Mandan,
$55,O0O.
The public building at Wahpeton,
$5OO,OO0.
For site for public buildings at
jamestown, Valley City and Dicki1-
son, each $4,000.
The bill passed the house couple
OF days ago.
The appropriations for the sites at
the three last.named cities mean that
appropriations will be made for the
buildings by the next congress ii the
work is pushed as it has been this
year. Mr.. Hanna has therefore Sc
cured six public buildings for his
state at one session of congress-
something that has never been &C
complished by any other congress-
man in the history of congress. This.
to. in a year when the announced
policy of both congress and the presl.
dent was one of retrenchment and
economy. -,

Reno, New, June 24.-Jim Jeffries
topped off a hard days work with =
road run late this afternoon. He
donned the boxing gloves for the first
time here this morning, but there was
scarcely a blow in the five rounds
spared with Armstrong and his broth
er Jack, as fast foot work on the
slippery floor of the platform was
thought dangerous.
In the final round with Jack JEFF
ries, he invited him to swing to the
jaw as hard as he could. The big
fellow protruded his chin and Jack
tried two lusty swings, both of which
bounced off Jeffries' face without hav'
ing the slightest effect.
On the third try Jeffries ducked and
the punch landed oyer his left eye
which is likely to be a trifle discolor>
ed tomorrow.
In view of the continued talk OF
a possible interference by the state
authorities, Promoter Rickard has
been much reassured by the report
from Ely today of the following tele
gram from Governor Dickerson:
"Prize fight licensed under laws OF
this state. My duties are to enforce
laws; not to make them. There will
be no interference from the COVER
nor's office if requirements of the Law
are complied with. This decision is
irrevocable. You may use this tele'
gram as you see fit.

New York, June 24.-Porter Charl
ton will never be tried for murder in
the courts of New Jersey. Whether
he heat his wife into insensibility with
blows from wooden mallet at Lake
Como, Italy, and then stuffed her nv
ing. into a trunk and sank the trunk
in the waters of the lake, is matter
outside the jurisdiction of the New
Jersey courts.
Viii Not Be Released.
On the other hand he will not be re-
leased until the question of his san
ity is determined. This is assured
bv the Charlton family, who announc'
ed through counsel tonight that If the
Youths mind proved dangerously un'
sound. they would take the initiative
in having him committed to some
suitable Institution. The father, ohm
Paul Charlton, previously had SAID
that he believed Porter was crazy.
The attitude of the New Jersey
courts, as defined tonight by Prosecu'
tor Pierre GarVen of Hudson county,
is this:
Held On Complaint Of italy.
The state of New jersey now holds
~
the Italian counsel general, as a fu'
gitive from Italian juHtice, pending q
request for his extradition from the
Italian department Of state, through
the Italian minister to Secretary
Knox, of the state department.. Ii
extradition is not demanded, there is
no action the courts of this state
can take. Whether the federal courts
can step in is q matter outside my
province, and on which the attorney
general of the United States Is more
coml,etent to pass opinion.
May Be Free Man.
Then there is possibility that
Charlton may walk from Jail a free
man, without trial, for the general
trend of the dispatches from Rome
seem to indicate that the Italian gov
ernment will act in the matter with
reluctance, If at all, since to demand
extradition to Italy of an American

Reno, New, June 24.-If Jack John
son is superstitious he may regard
with apprehension certain peculiar
facts connected with his arrival in
Reno today.
When Jack left San Francisco last
night it vas an undertaken who SAID
the final words to the champion to
speed him on his way. Twenty three
was the date of his departure. Early
this morning in the snowsheds near
Truckee, Jacks train was delayed by
a freight car derailment in tunnel 13,
and the champion and his party finally
detrained here at just 13 minutes past
three O'Clock, three hours after 10
q. M, the hour scheduled for his ar.
rival To round out this "hoOdoo"
combination he settled down in his
training quarters on Friday.
Johnson did not follow out his plan
to begin training operations this ar
ternoon, and in view of the sinister
dope that was discussed on all sides
no one blamed him.
- Reno gave the negro a hearty re-
ception at the station from which
he was soon hurried by his manager
to the training quarters.
One of the first statements given
out by Johnson, was denial of the
report that he had reappointed Lit
tie as his manager.
"Flanagan," he said, "is the man
who is looking after my business in
terests, and he will continue to do
so until after the fight. There has
been no change in my relations with
Little. and I want to emphasize the
fact I have severed all relations with
him.

Henry }. Geiermann is dead. The
end came peacefully at st. Alexius
hospital at 3:15 o'clock Saturday
morning. Mrs. Geiermann, his daugh-
ter Mary, his son Henry, two cousins
from Michigan, and his sister-in-laW,
Paulina Beer from LIE Seuer, Minn.,
were at the bedside when the end
came.
Mr.. Geiermann' death was not to-
tally unexpected. To those Of his
friends who were appraised of his true
condition, it was evident that the rug
ged constitution and iron will must
inevitably weaken. 1t is not believed
that Mr.. Geiermann himself was
aware of the real seriousness OF his
condition hen be went to the hos
pital. A week ago he was seized
with chills and other alarming symp-
toms manifested themselves. A spec
ialist was telegraphed for from St.
Paul, and arrived in Bismarck last
Sunday. He was the greatest and
most able abdominal surgeon in the
entire northwest. Examination OF the
patient revealed the fact that there
were only slight hopes for his ulti-
mate recovery. An operation was
performed and the specialist return
ed to St. Paul. He had done all that
was possible for human hands to do
in the case.
For few days following the oper-
alton, Mr.. Geiermann seemed to be
holding his own remarkably well. But
at no time was there any marked i'm
prov.ment. His phenomenal consti-
tuition and his determined will buoyed
him up for the time being, but the
strain was greater than he could bear
and he finally began slipping, slip
ping over the brink into the Great
Beyond.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 24.-lt is many
years since an Illinois jury has been
called upon to consider a verdict of
greater political Importance than that
one which retired this afternoon to
consider the charge of bribery against
Lee O'Neil Browne, leader of the
democratic minority of the Illinois
house of representatives.
Instructions to Jury
In instructing the jury, Judge Nc
Surley stated that the uncOrroborated
testimony of an accompIice may be
considered, but it should be received
with great care and caution and care
fully weighed. Should the jury be-
lieve that any of the states witnesses
testified because OF promise OF in
munity from prosecution, this also
should enter into the consideration
the case. 10 find Browne guilty, the
court said, the evidence must estab-
these following propositions:
"First, whether on June 16, 1909,
Browne gave. Representative White
in the Briggs house at Chicago the
sum of $3.50.
Second, that said sum was given
to White in consideration of having
voted for VIM. Lorimer, pursuant to
a corrupt agreement thereintofore en-
tered into between Browne and White
and by which White agreed to vote
and Browne agreed to pay him.
If the jury retains any doubt on
these two points, the court added, it
must find the defendant not guilty.

Washington, June Pain addition
to passing large number of bills on
it's private calendar and agreeing to
numerous conference reports, the
senate today devoted almost six hours
to the consideration of the bill look
ing to the establishment. of national
forest reserves in the White noun
tains and in southern Appalachian.
Much OF this time was consumed by
Senator Burton, who, while disclaim'
ing any intention of filibustering, en-
tered upon wide range of discourse.
He indicted that he expected to ad-
dress the senate several hours longer
in opposition to this bill.
Conference Reports
Among the conference reports
agreed to was one covering the diff
ferences between the two houses on
the bill authorizing the issuance OF
2O,O00,O00 worth of certificates OF
Indebtedness to complete existing re-
ciamation projects and another on
the general deficiency appropriation

General Deficiency Bill
After the general deficiency bill had
been adopted, Senator Gore attacked
the provision relating to the approx
al of these contracts with the Choc-
taw and Chickasaw Indians He said
that the appropriation of these con-
tracts meant the payment of $3,000,-
900 to ]. F.. McMurray, an Oklahoma
attorney, and loss of that sum to
the Indians. He charged that big
lobby was maintained in Washington
