WITNESSES UNABLE TO AGREE
AS TO CHARLTONS' RELATIONS
Some Say Wife Slayer's 'Spats" With
Woman Were Quarrels

COMO. Italy, Oct 22.-Concerning the
terms on which Porter Charlton lived
with the wife he killed later, witnesses
differed today at the resumption of his
trial here.
Some thought the couples differences of
opinion were mere "spats"; others spoke
OF them as violent quarrels. Some thought
Charlton dominated his wife; others that
she controlled him completely The Court
handled the proceedings rapidly, listen
ing to 20 witnesses in the course of the
session. They included servants and
tradesmen who saw more or less of the
Charltons while they were living in the
house they occupied at the time of the
killing.
The testimony related to events which
led to the tragedy. The details of the
finding of Mrs. Charlton's body had not
been reached by adjournment.
Miceli Picard. Charlton's chief coun-
sci, just out of a sick bed, was in court
still far from well.

MRS. YOUNG Is CALLED
"VICTTM OF POLITICS"
Regret in This City for Resigna-
tion of Chicago School
Superintendent

Regret was expressed today among per-
soma prominent in educational circles in
this city on learning Of the resignation
OF Mrs. ella Flags Young, superintendent
Of Chicago public schools, and IL was the
general belief that she had been made
the victim Of the political ring which
has steadfGstly opposed her progressive
methods.
Mrs. Young announced that she would
retire from service on December s, and
declared that constant heckling by the
school trustees forced her to make such
a decision. Her announcement was re-
ceived in silence. There was no word of
comment or regret. The noted teacher
said the general belief among the trus-
tees that a person of 20 years was not
competent to do responsible work was
unjust.
Among others here who ccnsured the
political ring for bringing about the re-
tirement of Mrs. Young was Mrs. I.
OHarra. former president of the state
Federation of Womcn's Clubs.
1T was simply a question OF politics.
she SAID. Members of the ring in Chi
cago found that they could not rule Mrs.
Young to suit themselves and II was a
great blow when they learned that she
would not permit politics to interfere with
educational work. Mrs. Young had ideas
of her own about the direction of the
schools. and the results which she
achieved proved that she was right. She
bore the opposition of the politicians
until she could stand it no longer, and
was finally obliged to resign on account
Of the constant intrigues.
Mrs. Young made many friends in this
city when she attended the convention
Of the National Educational Association
here three years ago. Those who heard
her speak were readily convinced of her
general ability, and it was easily seen
that she was a woman who would not
have her plans set aside, especially by
politicians.
Otto T. Mallery, who takes a prominent
part in the work OF the Public Education
Association, said THE administration of
Mrs Ella Flagg Young has been the most
successful of any in many years and has
been of great value as a stimulus and
encouragement along educational lines to
other cities"
