er telegraphic service in conuecti y

CHARL TON WILL.
FIGHT HARD To
THWART ITALY
LEGAL STRUGGLE WILL ENsuE
BEFORE MURDERER IS RE-
TURNED FOR TRIAL.
'Ie Is Lifting Up Plea Of Insanity
finement in Rayless Italian Prison,
Which Has Driven Many Insane.

New York. Dec. 19-Porter Char,
ton, who is accused of having killed
his wife, Mary Scott Castle Charlton,
in Italy, will not be turned over to
TIE Italian authorities without q long
and hard-fought legal battle, the first
gun in which was fired today when
the hearing on the writ of habeas
corpus granted to the accused man
was begun. The writ was issued by
Judge Eeilstab, in the United Stat IS
circuit court at Trenton, N. j., fol
lowing the decision of the state de-
is entitled to the extradition OF the
10y. This announcement was made
by Secretary Knox ten days ago, ami
since then preparations have been
going forward to take advantage of
every legal technicality to prevent
the judgment from going into effect
insanity the Plea.
Insanity is to be the main defense
OF Charlton's attorneys, who allege
that the committing magistrate erred
in refusing testimony as to the accus
ed mans mental status. 1t is clearly
intimated in the statement of Secre
tary Knox that should higher court
decide that testimony as to Chart
, toms sanity should be admitted, then
the state department will again
take up the case and consider it from
this viewpoint.
Leading attorneys of New Yori
! and Washington are of the opinion
that an insane man cannot be tried
and hence cannot be legally surren
dered for trial. Thus the whole case
may come again before Secretary
| Knox. Edwin Smith, of counsel fol
|, Charlton, declares that the case will
be carried to the United States su
preme court if necessary.
The father of the prisoner, Judge
Charlton, of Washington, was mem
Der of the same class at Yale as
President Taft, and is influential in
government circles. Sincerely be-
lieving that his son is insane, he
will sapre no expense to save him
from the fate which would await him
in Italy.

The Glynn superior court conven-
ed in regular term yesterday morn
ing at 10 o'clock and after the grand
jury had been organized and cAarg-
ed by Judge Conyers and few min
or matters disposed OF, the court re.
cessed for the holidays.
Judge Conyers' charge to the jury
was very short, but comprehensive.
He charged the court as to the vari-
Gus laws that should be enforced.
and told the members of the grand
jury that they SHOULD look into the
various violations in this county. 1t
was their duty, he said. to see that
all OF the laws were enforced.
Judge Conyers. among other things
stated to the jury that this section
of the county was rapidly filling up
with settlers and 1t was the duty Of
the people of this county to obtain
the best class Of these new citizens,
and he stated that these people
would naturally desire to remove
into counties where the laws Of the
state were properly enforced.
The court also laid special stress
on the law against perjury and he
stated to the jury that this law was
difficult to enforce because it was
such hard matter to obtain eyi-
dence against one arraigned in the
court on that charge.
Judge Conyers touched upon the
question of good roads throughout
the county. He said that all Ehs
roads should be kept in good condi
tion and improved as much as pos
sible.
