ALIENISTS STUDY CHARLTON
Lay Foundation of Insanity Plea
Case in New Court.

The affairs of Porter Charlton, who
confessed on Thursday to the murder
of Mrs Mary Scott Castle Charlton, his
wife, at Lake Como, Italy, went on yes
terday with a speed that bade fair to set
a record in international criminal cases.
The fight on his extradition is already
under way, with battery of alienists
and lawyers in eager consultation for
the defence ranged against the Italian
government, the prosecuting officers of
New Jersey and the family of the MUIR
dered woman.
Soon after noon four alienists employed
by the defence We're closeted with
Charlton in the county Jail, on Jersey
City Heights, and remained with him for
an hour and a half, laying the founda-
ton of the insanity plea of the defence.
At about the same time the Marquis
Paolo di Montagliari, the Italian Charge
d'Affaires in Washington, was preparing
the papers for the application to the
State Department for extradition papers,
while Gustavo di Rosa, the acting Italian
Consul in this city, under direction Of
Assistant Prosecutor George T. Vickers
of Hudson County. was swearing to the
complaint to remove the case from the
municipal Jurisdiction of Hoboken to
municipal jurisdiction of Hudson County.
In the mean time Emil E. Fuchs, at
torney for Captain Henry H. Scott.
brother of the dead woman, was seeking
to intervene in the case through the
State Department at Washington. Mr..
Fuchs has been attorney for the family
for the last two years, and acted for
Mrs Charlton, then Mrs. Castle, when
she attempted to shoot William B. Craig
in the Waldorf last year.
Mr.. Fuchs foresaw the proba bilty OF
an effort to free Charlton on a writ Of
habeas corpus, as he was held in the
Hoboken jail without a definite charge
against him. After a consultation with
the italian acting consul and the New
Jersey officers the complaint was sworn
out and he was removed from the
custody of the municipal officials and
placed in the county jail

BARGE STRIKES YACHT

ChriStabel, with Walton Fergu-

CAUGHT ON LONG TOW ROPE
Vessel, Not Badly Hurt, Works
Clear and Keeps on Up the

Her bow cutting the water of He'll

strong ebb tide, the 150-foot steam yacht
Chrlstabel, the property of Walton Fer
guson. sr.. of Stamford, Conn, mem
for Long Island Sound yesterday after
noon with large party of Mr.. Fer
guson'S friends aboard. The vessel. one
of the handsomest in the New York
Yacht Club, had little trouble in fight
ing the tide, which was running against
her
AS the vessel was in the middle of the
treacherous channel and half way on
her passage through it she passed a
doughy little tug, putting along down
the river with a large barge behind, at
tached to long hawser. AS the Chris
label passed her the tide and wash of
the tug suddenly caused her to swerve
in her course, and before her sskipper
could prevent it she was riding the
water between the barge and the tug
and over the hawser, which lay low in
the water.
While Mr.. Ferguson and his friends
crowded to the rails to watch with anx-
iety the outcome the Christabers cap
tain did his best to get her out of the
way of the barge, which. propelled by
the strong tide, was bearing down upon
her. The captain shouted orders, and
the crew and captain of the tug, some
distance away, called suggestions, while
the guests looked on, rather scared. AS
the excitement reached its height, and
despite the captains best efforts, the
barge struck the Christabel squarely on
the starboard bow.
The yacht shivered under the impact
of the blow. but almost Immediately,
aided by the tide, swung clear of the
barge and got into safe water. Without
help she made off toward her destination
under her own steam. Examination of
the bow was made later and it was
found that the damage done would not
delay the vessels trip. Mr.. Walton con-
vinced his friends that his craft was all
right and the party recovered from the
excitement.
1t was said at the home of Mr.. Fer
guson, in Stamford, last night that no
one was hurt aboard the yacht Mrs
Ferguson was one of the members of
the party. She and Mr.. Ferguson
reached their home in time for dinner
last night and retired early. Mr.. Fergu-
son is a member of the banking firm of
j. & S. Ferguson, with offices at No. Is
