GET OFF AT BELVIDERE SQUARE : BODWELL LAND COMPANY, " CHARLTON NoT 10 BE TRIED BEFORE AUTUMN Arrested Nearly Five Years - Ago for Murder of His Wife. tCorrespondénce of thé Associated Préss.) Rome, Italy, Aphril 30.—Although July next will mark the elapse of five years since Porter Charlton was ar- rested on the chafge of murdering his wife in Ittaly, the case, i tis learnéd, will not ecome to trial Before autumn, if. by then. His c¢ounsel, Avvccaté ~Catapano, recently discussing the present delay, said: \ “THeére are two reasons for the de- 2 lay, the examination of the witnesses in America, and the obseérvations whi¢h are being takén of the prisoner's mental condition, at the asylum for the insane at Como.

If that had not been done there would have been the probabil- ity of his being’ judged at the Assizes without one witness for the defense present, ‘“‘Instead, the testimony or the four. teen witnsses in the United States will he read, the testimony being of great importance, given the defense as- sumed, which is the total irresponsi- bility of the accused. The investiga- tiéns cannot be closed, and therefore be made public until the experiments lo establish whether Charlton is in- Thus in June, or at the latest in July, the decision will be given out, su that the come on in the early autumn.” Avyvocato Catapano, how- ever, said that this was not at all sure, as should Italy be at war the trial woudl scarcely take place, Thinks He Will Be Freed ““You see,” he continued, a frontier town, “Como is and in case of war even the courts of justice will be upset. Charlton knows this and has not shown any great concern. He seems to Be resigned to his position id thinks he will ultimately be re- leased, meanwhilé¢ he is allowed all the physical exercise, to which he is so0 greatly attached, that he desires.” To the question why Charlton had takén his case out of the nhands of Deputy Porzio, Avvocato Catapano re- plied: “It cannot be sald that the case has been taken from him, the deputy is very much occupied and gave it up voluntarily, as he could not devote sufficient time to 1t and it 1s quite possible that he may deliver the final harangue. It has been said that the Charlton family were much disgusted at the time wasted over the i time-taking of the testimony in America, and that Deputy Porzio, as a member of parliament, did not hurry up matters as he might have done, but this is‘not so, ag the fault lies entire- 1y in our procedure; an: enormous fault when one considers that it took almost a vear to conclude the first normal legal inquiries. Trial Will Be Short, . “The counsel for the defense will e two, Avvocato Cattaneo or Como and myself, Avvocato Palmeir: of New York, who is cognizant of evérything, will come to Italy for the trial. ‘] expect that the trial will be short especially as all the testimony for the defense will be read, while only a few people of Mcltrasio, where the murder took place, will be heard, <o that time will only be consumed hearing the witness,.

Justice Rules Roosevelt Must Show Barnes Knew of and Profited - By Alleged Extravagance at Albany. Syracuse, William 8. trial of William Barnes’ suit for libel against Theodore Roosevelt, ruled yesterday that unless it was shown that Mr, Barnes actually knew of and profited by allefed extravagance and waste in the execution in Albany of orders for public printing, evidence upen that subject was incompetent. The proof. according to the ruling of the court, must be either circumstan- tial or direct, and it must be shown that the waste and extravagance was Lrought about through his pelitical in- fluence. The question of printing in general would, it was said last night, come up again on Mongday. What counsel for Colonel N.

The greater part of the afternoon j session was given over to arguments regarding the admissibility of the tes- timony on printing, During the arguments Justice An- drews remarked that if Mr. Barnes "Phone 1418-3 for Auto Appe held stock in the Lyon company, that did not justify the inference that he knew whether “dishonest bills” were rendered or “dishonest contracts” were being made. John M. Bowers, chief counsel for Colonel Roosevelt, argued at some length upon the question of printing. He touched upon the defendant’s testimony and upon the correspondence that has en- tered into the case. 'ROOSEVELT SAYS U. 8. MUST TAKE ACTION Former President Calls Sinking of | Lusitania, Plain Piracy—Warfare Against Innocent 'I‘rnvflm “yracuss; N. Y., May 8—“1‘heodnrs Roosevelt, former president of the United States, after learning details of the sinking of the Lusitania, late last night, made this statement: .“This represents not merely piracy, but piracy on a vaster scale of murder than any old-time pirate ever prac- ticed. This is the warfare which destroved Louvain and Dinant and hundreds of men, women and children in Belgium. It is warfare against in- nocent men, women and children, traveling on the ocean, and to our own fellow countrymen and country- women, who are among the sufferers. “It seems inconceivable that we can refrain from taking action in . this | matter, for we owe it mot only to hu- manity, but to our own national seif- respect.
