JERSEY CITY. n, j.. June 2S.-
Porter Charlton, confessed murderer
Of his wife. whose body Was found IN
Lake Como. Italy. was arraigned be-
fore Judge Blair in the court of oyer
and terminer, to-day and remanded
TO the county jail until July S. after
a promise from mis- attorneys that no
effort would he made 10 secure his re-
lease on a writ Of habeas corpus or
lunacy writ before that date
The delay was sought by Charton's
attorneys to ascertain what steps the
state department viii take in CHAR
tons extraditIon to Italy and to al
lew the aiienists further time to
study the prisoners mental condition
charlton WAS present In court. He
showed no interest In the proceed
Ing and kept his eyes fastened on the
floor during the entire hearing
The prisoner objected TO having
handouts placed on him white being
taken from the Hudson county Jail 10
the courthouse. SO Sheriff Kelly took
him I'm charge personally and led him
by roundabout way to thes court
house TO dodge the photographers. "
Court was delayed for some time
by the non-arrival of Italian Acting
Ccnsul-General Gustavo hi Rosa and
his attorney. Umberto Molassi who
viii insist that Charlton be sent back
to Italy fer trial,
Case Postponed
AZ soon as the case was called
Edwin Smith, one of the atton> eys
for the prisoner, asked for A post
ponement until July b. Prosecutor
Carver objected. declaring the delay
was wanted to learn the attitude OF
-
alienists more time. Smith thereupon
agreed not to ask for writ - naoeas
corpus or an insanity commission be-
fore July S, and the postponement
was allowed by Judge Blair.
Charlton was thereupon rushed
back to the Jail
After the hearing s. Floyd Clark,
Of counsel for the prisoner, declared
he did not believe Charlton wouio
ever be sent back to Italy for trial.
Clark cited the case of Caldwell
the great American affidavit maker"
who was a principal witness In the
English suit for the estate of the
Duke of Portland, whose alleged heirs
declared he led dual life. Caldwell
fed to American and England asked
his extradition on the charge of per-
jury. Caldwell's relatives declared
he was insane and he was never sent
back to England.
No Comment
WASHINaToNf' ID. c., June a.
Beyond exprea~ffhg surprise at the
Publication OF dispatches concerning
the Charlton extradition. the state de-
partment officials had no comment
10 make to-day regarding the case.
The belief exists. however that no
formal application has yet been made
and II is somewhat doubtful whether
Secretary Knox will insist upon the
extraditton of Italians from Italy who
are wanted In the United States as
q condition OF the surrender of Charl-
ton TO the italian authorities. Score
tATy OF State Knox left for Valley
Forge to-day. where he will remain
during the summer except as un.
usual occurrences may require his
presence In Washington.

WILD WEST" IS ENACTED
 AT ASH FORE
,From Tuesdays Dailyl


 Ash Fork experienced a lively time yesterday morning, at about 5:3O o'clock, when Al. Gordon attemptee to "shoot up" the Parlor saloon, by emptying his Winchester into the building from the outside.
 Gordon in return received a bulle, in his hand.
 The trouble that caused all the commotion and the discharge of fire arms arose over a game of cards, in which Gordon was a player. A heated argument arose, which brought Cor don to his feet with a threat, it is said, to "elean out the place" He went to his house, and returned with a rifle.
 As he was entering the saloon, Ed. Brinkman, the bartender of that place, who was on shift, grabbed his six-shooter and fired, the bullet cut ting through Gordon's right hand, causing, serious wound. Gordon then retreated and began firing through the open door. Brinkman fell to the floor and two bullets bare ly missed him, one ereasing his cloth ing. Gordon then stepped to the side and continued his bombardment, firing five shots into the building. A lively scramble took place among the many occupants, but fortunately no one was hit.
 Another account of the trouble states that Gordon had a fist fight with one of the players over the game before the shooting occurred, and being under the influence of liquor, created considerable trouble with all who were engaged.
 Brinkman, who fired in self-defense, has a good name in that town, and his action is endorsed by all who are conversant with the trouble. Cor don was taken before Justice of the Peace Kraemer, and in the default of bail was sent to the grand jury. He was brought to the city last night by Deputy Sheriff Mainze of Ash Fork and lodged in jail. He has a bad wound in his hand, which was dressed by a physician. The Win chester he used was also brought as evidence.

wEARERS OF BLUE
 AND GRAY TO JOIN

When the Blue and the Gray vet erans mingle in this city in May, it is probable that one of the greatest historical events ever to transpire in this territory will take place, and aside from the entwining' of the old colors of the two causes, one of the most interesting and realistic imi- tation of war doings will be given.
 The intention is now to have a sham battle, in which four companies of Arizona militia and the four com panies of regulars stationed at Fort Whipple will enliven the day in a mime fight.
 Major Kirby, commanding the 18th, will be asked at some future date, to assist in this demonstration of what actual war means, while Colonel Me Clintock of the A. N. G., will like wise be requested to endorse the movement. The site of the proposed sham battle will be selected from the open ground lying north of the rail road shops, and covering the foot hills to the west of Whipple.
 The ground is well adapted for maneuvering purposes. The plan is a commendable one, and if it is carried out will arouse great interest.
 A petition has been circulated in this city approving of the reunion of the old soldiers of the Blue and Gray causes, and is heartily endorsed by the leading citizens, while in the ranks of those whom it affects the responses are coming in without a dis senting voice.
 This will be the first time in the history of Arizona where the old sol diers of the North and South will mingle together under the flag of the nation, which in itself is a mem- orable event to look forward to. Among those who endorse the move ment are E. W. Wells, F. G. Breeht, H. A. Cheverton, M. B. Hazeltine, R. N. Fredericks, L. B. Larimer, F. L. Wright, c. A. Peter, Sr., Hugo Richards, Henry Brinkmeyer, J. W. Wilson. Hickey & Duke, Charles T. Joslin, J. p. Dillon, G. A. Bray, Ed. Shumate, II. Voge, B. NJ. Belcher, Sid ney Birch, H. D. Stuthman, Ray Hill, G. c. Ruffner, A. A. Johns, R. N. Looney, A. J. Head, c. NJ. Duff, D. W. Russell. Tom MeMahon, B. H. Smith, W. J. Mulvenon and Henry F. Ash urst.

REPORTED THAT MANY
 SHEEP ARE DYING
From Thursdays Daily)

Sheepmen around Congress June tion are said to be greatly alarmed over the mysterious and sudden death of many sheep of their floeks, which has been taking place daily for the past few days. They are at a loss to account for the deeimation that is prevailing.
 Recent arrivals from the place that is affected in the heavy loss, say that as yet no cause is given, and the gen. eral supposition is that the sheep have been eating a poisonous weed. The loco weed is dispelled as the com modity, there being no growth of that article in that section, and the belief prevails that a new and unknown weed has sprung up that has never before been heard of.
 The loss is said to be heavy to those who are located in that field, and will offset all increase expected for the year. Thousands of animals are passing IHe pI0oohS "Ah'OA oN OA near that point, where grazing IS better than for several years. Under present conditions the sheepmen ranging there are practically helpless to remedy the trouble.
 Water is needed for the animals, and to drive them away will cause an additional and heavy expense. The number of sheep lost to the present time could not be learned, but was so heavy that several owners who are on the ground were somewhat alarmed at the frightful fatality going on.
 Last summer sheep in the Camp Wood section of this county were stricken with a similar fatality, but were moved away from the danger zone as soon as the discovery was made. The supposition of several rangemen is that the weed that is causing the trouble grows through a season of heavy rainfall, and until weather conditions assume a normal phase, an abatement of the evil may not be expected.

TRACK LAYING BEING RUSHED.
(From Wednesdays Daily.l )

Grading and track laying on the Parker and Bengal line of railroad is progressing at a rapid rate. J. A. Jaeger, who returned from the front yesterday, reports the grade finished to a point about ffty-three miles out. The track laying force has reached a point twenty-eight miles from Par ker.
 The gap to be completed by the contractors is thirty-seven miles, when the main line of the Santa Fe will be tapped at Bengal. It is expected from the progress of the work that this will be accomplished in May, and a short time thereafter connection will be made by the track-layers.
 Paul P. Hastings, the freight and passenger agent of the system, states that freight and passenger traffic has been opened on the new line to Vidal, fourteen miles from Parker, and a station established. In a few days he would also announce the company would be ready for business at Blythe Junction, thirty-one miles distant. Ad- pacent to both of these points farm ing and mining was going on, and at Blythe over two thousand people were tilling the soil. As the road pro- gresses toward the goal, it is prob able that other permanent stations would be created. The future out look for business was encouraging.

CoNTMENDALBE MOVEMENT
 IS UNDER WAY
From Wednesdays DafIy)

The first public meeting of the Yav- apai County Society for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, was held in the large assembly hall of the Prescott High school last night
 This organization, which has as its object, the ultimate stamping out of what is commonly known as the "Great White Plague" forms a unit of and acts in conjunction with the great national and international move ments in the same direction.
 The society's present status is due largely to the earnest efforts of its present officers, all six of whom are, with one exception, residents of Pres colt.
 The officers of the society are as follows: President, Walter Hill; first vice president, W. D. Baker; sec ond vice president, Mrs. J. B. Cleve- land; third vice president, H. W. Joss of Jerome; secretary, Dr. c. E. Yount, and M. B. Hazeltine, treasurer.
 The meeting last night was for the enlightenment of the general public, and a series of sixteen stereopticon slides were used, the better to ac- quaint the audience with the anStom- ical and physiological structure of the human lungs.
 Dr. c. E. Yount, in his introductory remarks, gave a brief history of the tuberculosis germ, the time it has taken scientists to determine the best methods of coping with it, and gave figures as to deaths caused by it.
 Miss Mabel Norris, who has had wide experience in the work in the east, particularly in the tenement dis tricts of New York City, depicted the sanitary conditions existing in the tenements of that place, which tend to predispose children in these dis ease breeding novels to the ravages of the dread plague.
 Walter Hill, in a short address, set forth what could be accomplished by the so-ealled fresh air treatment in preventing infection.
 Dr. J. W. Finn made some very foreeful statements in an address, at the conclusion of the meeting, show ing the methods by which people may become infected, discussing the lab oratory aspects of the disease, and how to prevent its spread.
 The society looks, in a general way, to the public for support, and mem bership cards, costing $1, may be had from pr. c. E. Yount, or any of the above mentioned officers for that sum.

 Oak Creek, that empties into the Verde river, below Cottonwood, is as- suming renown as an agricultural re- zion, and a few days ago there ar rived from Tennesse a colony of sew eral people, who come. to locate along it and cultivate the land.
 In the party are about thirty per sons.
 A representative of the colony says that they are desirous of purchasing ten acre tracts of land and will fol low farming exclusively. It required two cars of the Santa Fe to bring their personal effects from their home state.
 They expressed themselves as pleased with the country and enthus- iastic over the possibilities of tha, section. Several deals are pending for the taking over of land, and in a short time it is their intention to become permanently located.

PREPARING NEW TRAIN SIGNALS

The Winslow Mail says: In the future, or as soon as the Santa Fe examining committees, now employed in installing new rules and signals into the operating department, men all over the system have finished their work, the old ''high ball." familiar all over America as the Ego ahead" or "get out of town" sign, will pass into oblivion.
 It will be followed by every other railroad signal on the Santa Fe, save the one calling on the engineer to back the train. The examining boarH is fast finishing its work and will take to the road soon to instruct sta tion men and operators, and everyone who sas a hand in the operation of trains, except the girls who go to the depot to see the travelling men.
 It is extensive and will have the effect of keeping the railroad men awake While some of the new sig nals are not as definite as the old ones they are to replace, yet they must go.
 The signal to take the place of the "high ball" has the appearance of hungry grammar school boy who is so hungry that he can't talk, sign ing to his mother for a doughnut The stop signal might be taken for the first feeble effort of a youthful law graduate at gestieulation.
