Early in 1909, according TO fellow-em-

One of them said to-day: I'VE were not
surprised when one morning late in
March ne mentioned that he had been
examined by three physicians and told
he had incipient consumption
Then Charlton wrote his father. asking
advice. Charlton had married Mrs. Cas-

not known to any Of the bank officials
nor 10 his parents. He was living at the
Hotel Woodward.
Judge Charlton came 10 New York and
discussed his sons future and health
with President Vanderlip. his close friend
President Vanderlip offered to send young
Charlton first to a bank in Texas for

CHARLTON EXTRACTION
WOULD REQUIRE MONTHS

Rome. June 24-It is stated that the
extradition formalities in the case of
Porter Charlton viii require three
months. Hence Charlton is not likely
10 be brought TO Italy before Septem-
Der. The government is determined TO
spart no effort 10 hasten the judicial
investigation, which, unless the medical
experts examination is prolonged. may
be concluded in 1911. Care is necessary
however, since If the procedure should
be curtailed. the trial is apt TO be de-
elared illegal.
Eight years ago, in Genoa, a man
named Oliver killed his wife. hacked
her body 10 pieces. stuffed the pieces into
a trunk, and threw the trunk into the
sea. The other case was that of Sculp-
tor Cinariello two years ago. He shot
his wife in Naples and confessed the
crime
Both men employed prominent. elo-
quent lawyers. and both were acquitted
In both cases, when the prisoners were
declared not guilty they received the ap-
plause of the public.

STATE DEPARTMENT
RECEIVES NO DEMAND
FOR CHARLT0N'S RETURN,

The State Department and the Italian
foreign Office are engaged in diplomatic
correspondence in regard to the ques-
ton OF extraditing Porter Charlton.
No formal demand for Charlton's sur
render to the italian authorities has yet
been received
While officers OF the department de-
cline to discuss the situation. it Is un-
derstood that the Italian Embassy In
this city several weeks ago asked that
Charlton be arrested il he was located
in this country
The department is anxious to-aseertain
whether or not the italian government
intends TO make a formal request for
Charltons extradtion. II Is believed the
present negotiations are for the pur-
pose of aseertaining the attitude of the
Italian government.
Neither Country Bound.
It is not believed here that the italian
foreign office will make a formal request
for Charlton's extradition. There are sew
eral reasons. it was said. why such action
is unlikely. The principal one is that
italy has always contehded that neither
party 10 the extradition treaty was re-
quired 10 surrender its own citizens.
The italian penal code specifically for
bids the extradition Of an italian citizen
or subject to a foreign government. In
view of this Interpretation OF the conven-
ton. Italy. IT was pointed out. cannot
consistently ask the United States TO ex-
trsdite Charlton 10 italy for trial The
Italian police. il was explained, have only
a professional interest in the Charlton
crime. The victim was an American,
which. it was said. is likely 10 diminish
the zeal Of the italian government in its
effort TO punish the criminal
The general expectation Is that the
question will be settled by diplomatic
means within the next few days
Same as Penal Code.
According 10 extradition experts. the
treaty between the United states and italy
has the same effect as II it contained a
provision specifically exempting citizens
and subjects OF each country from ex-
tradition 10 the other country. Under
the Italian penal code. It was said. the
Italian government cannot extradite one
of its own citizens
Although the United States has pro-
tSStSu against THIS inter Pfttatluu OF the
convention, the convention Is mutual and
reciprocal 1t cannot be interpreted so
as to bind the United States to any great
er degree than it is binding upon Italy.
The view OF expert international lawyers
is that the Italian treaty is identical in
It's effect as the extradition convention
between the United States and Mexico.
which contains a provision exempting
citisens of either country from extradi-
ton.

ITALY NOT TO ASK
FOR COMO SLAYER
Case, However, Will Be Tried
and Sentence Passed.

Rome, June 24-CharIton's extraditlon
will not be demanded unless the United
States is willing to surrender him to
Italy.
The question will be settled diplomat
ically through the italian Ambassador at
Washington. II Charlton Is not surren-
dered a trial will, nevertheless. be held
at Como in his absence.
The procedure will be simple. The court
will merely examine the evidence that
has been collected and the examining
judge will award the maximum penalty,
which is Imprisonment for life.
Naturally. Charlton will not be entitled
TO any defense if he is absent from the
trial
Duty OF the Court.
When the judicial investigation is con-
cluded. according TO the italian law the
prisoner is presumed to be guilty, not
innocent Hence a prisoner Is ordinarily
cross-examined for the purpose of max
ing him incriminate himself If he con-
fesses the crime the examining judge is
bound 10 discover whether the confess
sion is genuine He also appoints medi-
cal experts with the object of ascertain
ing the mental condition Of the prisoner
The latter Is entitled to the assistance of
lawyers who may likewise appoint ex-
perts The investigation is secret and
generally lasts about two vars.
When the investigation Is concluded
the case is handed over 10 the Kings
procurator. who. after further examlna-
ton. commits the prisoner TO trial by
jury at the AsslzO court in the district
where the crime was committed. The
family OF Mrs Charlton will be entitled
10 be represented al the trial with the
object OF claiming damages in separate
civil court.
Maximum Is Likely.
Charlton Is likely to be indicted for
willful murder the penalty for which IS
life Imprisonment; but if generalization
is excluded the penalty VIII be dimin-
ished. while If the man is proved TO be
OF unsound mind he VIII be acquitted.
In cases of this kind In Italy extenuat-
ing circumstances and seni-madness are
admitted as legitimate pleas. In this
case. where a conviction is secured. the
penalty varies from six to fifteen years
at hard labor.
The prevailing impression here, based
on experience in similar crimes OF pas
sion, is that If Charlton secures good
lawyers he viii secure a mild sentence
Of three or four years Imprisonment.
