Charlt0n's Confession and

MAY NOT TRY CHARLTON
UNITED STATES COURTS WITH
OUT JURISDICTION.
Extradition to Italy Not Provided
For in Treaty-He Might
Consent to Go Back.

There is no court in the United States
with jurisdiction to try Porter Charlton
for the murder of his wife, Mary Scott
Charlton.
This was ascertained today after the
matter had been carefully Investigated at
the Department Of Justice.
1t was learned. too. that there is no
treaty between the United States and
Italy which compels this government to
send Charlton back to Italy to stand
trial for murder. In fact. Italy herself.
in the past. has refused to return to the
United States Italian citizens who COM
mitted murder in Pennsylvania and who
were asked for by this country
No Law Nor Treaty Applies.
Therefore. to deal with Charlton's case
either the laws Of the United States re-
garding the trial for murder under such
circumstances must be amended or the
treaty with Italy must be changed.
The Constitution Of the United States
specifically guarantees to citizens of the
United States that they shall be tried in
the state and district in which they may
have committed or have been charged
with committing crimes.
Trial by United States Ministers.
Under the Revised Statutes, section
1890. In cases where murder has been
committed in a foreign country by q
citizen of the United States the United
States minister to that country may ar.
rest and try that citizen Of the United
States. ana may sentence the prisoner to
death, or may refer the case to the
President for pardon. But this section
does not refer to citizens who have COM
mitted murders and then escaped to the
United States.
Unless the United States should agree
to the extradition Of Charlton upon the
request Of Italy, or unless Charlton
himself should agree to return to Italy
and stand trial for the murder Of his
wife, it does not appear that Charlton
can come to trial.

But" ne contended, under all the

it from issuing obligations or stock for
any purpose relating to interstate or for
eign commerce except In accordance with
rules and restrictions prescribed by IL for
the purpose of preventing the evils above
referred TO.

with respect to the means of raising
