voted father, Paul Charlton. former
United States judge at Porto Rico; his
mother and brother and his counsel
The crime for which Charlton must
now stand trial created worldwide at
tention because of his grewsome set
ting and the prominence of the slayer's
family. The fight against extradition
occasioned international interest and
at one time threatened to embroil this
country with Italy.
Porter Charlton was a New York
bank clerk when he met Mrs Neville
H. Castle, divOrcee and daughter of
Henry Ii. Scott, a San Francisco coal
merchant. The wooing of Charlton was
ardent and rapid. with the result that
the couple were secretly married in
Wilmington, Del. I'm April, 1910 A few
days later they sent announcements to
their friends and then sailed for Eu
rope Oh their honeymoon. Letters re-
ceived by Captain Scott attached to
the coast artillery at Fort Myer, led TO
the belief that the couple were happy
and peaceably enjoying themselves.
On the morning of June 10 the body
of Mrs. Charlton was found by fisher
men In q trunk in Lake Como not far
from the villa the pair bad occupied
An investigation was Started by the
police of Cernobbio, and a Russian
named Constantine lspolatoff was ar
rested. When the authorities searched
for Charlton he had disappeared.
1t was at first believed Charlton had
met death defending his wife's honor
and the lake was searched for his
body. Then it was learned from the
proprietor of the Hotel Suisse at Ger
nobbio that couple had frequently
appeared there and registered as Mr.
and Mrs. Potter. They had often
quarreled. and ON several occasions the
woman had been seen weeping Once
the guests heard shrieks. and the pro
prietor found Mrs. Charlton hidden in
q closet. Later her husband dragged
her to the street, and the proprietor
asked the pair to leave his hotel.
These stories turned suspicion upon
Charlton. and the police of the entire
world were asked to arrest him on
sight. None of the detectives assigned
to the case was more indefatigable
than Captain Scott He swore to be
revenged and obtained a leave Of alb
sence. Scott thought his brother-in-
law might be on the Deutschland and
was on hand when she locked
No trace of Charlton was found. and
he strolled over to the Princess Irene.
He had never seen the object of his
quest, but man on the pier answered
his description, and he caused his ar
rest. He had arrived under an as
sumed name, but admitted his identity
when his own name was found stitch.
ed inside his laundry bag. He then
seemed glad that the strain was over.
At police headquarters he made a
written confession. In which he said
that. while his wife was "the best wo-
man In the world" they often quar-.
relied over trivial matters. and she
would call him foul names. The night

on political pulls as recommendations.
He was asked if he could outline the

"Well, | have never made any secret
of what my policy would be if | should
pie an economical administration along
Democratic lines said the soon to be
governor, but | have not matured the

Pinchot For Governor.

Harrisburg. Pa. Jan. -. = Scarcely
had announcement been made that the
Progressive party would lie continued
as Il separate political organization in
Pennsylvania when a crop of candi-
dates for the various nominations to be
made within the next few years loom
ell ND here, either directly or through
their friends.
Clifford PinchOt. who attracted much
attention in his controversy with Sec
rotary Ballinger and who is generally
regarded as the cause of the split be-
tween President Taft and Colonel
Roosevelt, is said to have longing eyes
on the governorship.
Until the Ballinger squabble it was
not generally known that Pinchot was
a Pennsylvania. During the primary
campaign last March and April particu
lar stress was laid on the fact that the
apostle of conservation was a resident
of Pike county. Until this year he was
practically unknown among the politi-
clans of the state.
Living in an eastern county. Pin
chOt's friends figure that he would be
the logical successor to Senator Pen
rose in 1915. His friends assert Pin
chot has been discussed as available
for either of these nominations
