ITALY BELIEVED READY
TO DROP CHARLTON CASE.

The belief is growing among Federal
officers in washington that the Italian
government VIII decline to make a
formal request for Porter Charlton's ex-
tradition.
While the officers of the State De-
partment will not discuss the question. it
is generally understood that the United
States and Italy are engaged in tele-
graphic correspondence over the ques-
ton.
1t is believed that Secretary of State
Knox has made representations TO the
Italian foreign Office for the purpose of
ascertaining the attitude of the Italian
government.
The delay OF the Italian government in
informing the United States of its inten-
tions is accepted here as evidence that
Italy does not intend 10 ask for his sur
render and extradition to Italy for trial.
It was pointed out that a formal re-
quest for his extradition would have
been received from the Italian govern
ment shortly after his arrest il it was
its desire that Charlton should be tried
in italy.
Legal officers OF the department decline
to indicate the character of the instruc-
lions 20 be sent to Recorder McCovern,
of Hoboken. for his guidance in handling
the case Recorder McGovern asked the
Department of Justice Friday afternoon
for instructions. His request was for
warded to the State Department by
