Mr. R. P. Wright, of Chelan, Wash

morning and met his wife here, who
came from Washington this morning,
and together they will visit their
aged mothers, Mrs. Hopkins, of this
city, and Mrs. A. E. Wright, of Eagle.
Mrs. Hopkins is about eighty-one,
while Mrs. Wright Is eighty-three
years of age.
Mr. Wright is returning from Chi

apples, on which he had captured the
first prize In the horticultural exhibit
at Spokane, Washington, in October.
After capturing the blue ribbons at
the state exhibit. Mr. Wright billed
his car of apples to Chicago and made
a remarkably fast run from Spokane,
going the distance with his car of
fruit In sixty hours and five minutes.
Ills car of Washington-grown fruit
consisted of 630 boxes and was the
best In the horticultural display at
Chicago, where he competed with
every state in the union,. and here he
succeeded in again taking first prize.
After the show was over he sold his
car of prize fruit for $1,600, which is
not doing so bad. Mr. Wright for

this county and went to Washington
a few years ago and went into the

Because Italy Refused to Surrender
Citizens for Trial Does Not Relieve
United States From Obligation.
Question of Sanity Up to Courts.
Washington, Dec. 10. Secretary
Knox granted the request ot Italy tor
the surrender of Porter Charlton,
charged with the murder of his wife
at Lake Como. The secretary holds
that the fact that Italy refuses to sur
render its citizens to the United States
for trial does not relieve this country
from the obligation of the extradition
treaty to surrender to Italy fugitives
from Justice from that country. The
question of the sanity of Charlton, it
is suggested, is one for the courts and
not for the department to determine.
Arguments for counsel for the ac
cused that Italy refused to surrender
Its own citizens and the assertion tha
the Italian demand for Charlton's sur
render was not In strict accordance
with the requirements of the treaty
are swept away by the secretary as
without basis and the committing
magistrate's proceedings are found to
have been regular In all respects.

Paul Morton Addresses Convention of
Presidents in Chicago
Chicago, Dec. 10. The fourth anna
al meeting of the Association of Llta
Insurance Presidents opened Its ses
sion here with Paul Morton, president
of the Equitable Lire Insurance socl
ety, presiding. Mr. Morton, in his
opening address, proclaimed the west
the future center of insurance actlvl
tics, declaring that the "star of in
Burance, like the star of empire, west
ward takes Its way." He said
"American life Insurance never stood
so well; never was so safe or sur
rounded by so many safeguards and
never offered the public so much for
Its money as It does today. The ex
pense of management Is being cur
tailed. u Economics ot all kinds have
been introduced, and dividends to pol
icy holders are being Increased. The
chief ambition of the Association of
Life Insurance Presidents Is to em
phasize the fact that theee great llfo
Insurance companies belong to the
people, and that nothing In the way of
regulation, taxation or legislation can
be done to injure them, which the pol
icyholders will not have to pay for
themselves."
Jesse Huston, of Union, came up
this morning to be a spectator at the
trial of John Clarence and hear the
arguments of attorneys.

fixed the limit of time for argument
at three hours for each side, and the
order In which the lawyers should
come before the Jury was left to the
attorneys themselves. The order
was quickly agreed upon. W. C.
Ramsey was to open for the state, to
bo followed by William Delles
Dernier for the defendant, then
County Attorney Taylor for the state,
followed by Judge Sullivan and J. C.
Watson for the defendant, Matthew
Gering, for the state, to follow Mr.
Watson.
The seats for visitors were all
filled, there being quite a percentage
of the crowd made up of ladies.
The defense finished Its direct ex
amination of witnesses yesterday
forenoon at about 11:45 when the
court adjourned until 2 p. ni., when
the state begau its rebuttal testi
mony. Tho defendant took the stand In
h la own behalf, and was the strong
est witness that tho defense has
placed on the stand. Ills manner
before the Jury appeared to be that
of candor and without any display of
feeling whatever, lie detailed to the
Jury his version and theory of the
entire trouble. The defendant denied
any Intent to kill, but that ho acted
only In self defense and did not fire
a shot at his assailant until after he
had been twice struck with the
board, and had bad his cane taken
from him by John Thacker. lie de
nied the statement testified to by
Carter Albln and Lee Thacker, that
he had called to Thacker that he
would "shoot h 1 out of him" unless
he kept his mouth out of the trouble
between Carter and Earl Albln. De
fendant did tell Thacker to keep his
mouth out of It and at that Thacker
turned and advanced on him, picked
up a board and struck defendant.
Defendant told the Jury that ho did
not advance one Inch toward Thack
er, but that Thacker was the aggres
sor. The defendant then showed the
Jury how he and Thacker were
clinched, using another party for Mr.
Thacker and declared that the threo
shots wcro fired Into tho deceased
while he was trying to bear defend
ant to tho ground, and stated In
reply to a question 8B to why he had
shot, that Thacker had taken his cane
from him, and wns so much his
superior In strength that ho was
afraid Thacker would Injure him and
perhaps kill hi in and thnt was the
only reason that ho did the deed.
On cross-examination he was
nsked, supposing his version of the1
shooting wns correct, how he could
explain the ball which entered
Thacker's leg had taken an upward
rango and tho point of exit at the
rear ot the leg was an Inch higher
than tho point where the ball en
tered. Defendant then explained to
the jury that Mr. Thacker's foot may
have been raised at the time tho shot
was fired, which would have the re
sult of changing the rango of the
bullet. After the cross-examination
of the defendant was through the de
fense rested Its caso In chief.
The rebuttal of tho tate occupied
tome time after the noon recess, and
on this branch of the testimony a
large number of the best citizens of
Liberty precinct were called to testi
fy to tho good character and stand
ing of John P. Thacker, the mur
dered man.
The testimony all being In, the de
fendant's counsel filed a motion re
questing the court to Instruct tho
Jury that It could only consider the
degree of manslaughter, and that the
charges In the Information, of mur
der In the first and second degree
should not go to the Jury. The Jury
was excluded from the room while
the motion was being argued to the
court. After listening to tho argu
ments, the court overruled tho mo
tion, giving as his reason, In sub
stance, that there was evidence to
support the allegation In the Infor
mation of premeditated killing.
Whether the evidence was convincing
or not was for tho Jury to Bay. That
the points raised by the defenso
would be very thoroughly covered In
the Instructions submitted to the
Jury, that the Jury was an excep
tionally capable one and qualified to
determine the effoct of the evidence.
Judgo Travis then ordered the
jury to be brought Into the court
room, and W. C. RaniBey began the
opening argument for the state. Mr.
In
nlng of his speech in defining the
three allegations of the information,
exxplalnlng to the jury the degrees
of murder.
The speaker then went over the
evidence as detailed by the state's
witnesses, explained tho state's view
of the homicide, using the photo
graphs Introduced and dwelt on the
evidence of Carter Albln and Iee
Thacker, telling the jury that the
words attributed to John Thacker,
In addressing Carter Albln were the
natural words for one in Mr. Thack
er's position to use. Karl Albln was
a nephew of J. P. Thacker as well as
of Carter Albln, and that any man
seeing a nephew out of his plac
would naturally reprimand him or
tell somo one else to do so. The
theory of self defense was then at
tacked by Mr. Ramsey, and he argued
to the Jury that tho scientific evi
dence of Dr. Lavender, and tho testi
mony of Dr. Livingston as to the
range of the bullet which entered the
breast of tho murdered man shat
tered tho theory of the defense that
the fatal shot was fired while the
men were struggling. Hut tho evi
dence that two of the shots wore
fired closo together and one later
was undoubtedly correct, and that
at the moment John Thacker stooped
was when ho received the shots In
the leg and the one in tho breast, as
there were no powder burns on tho
clothing where these two shots en
tered, and there were powder marks
on the clothing where the other shot
entered.
An adjournment was taxon until
this morning at the close ot Mr.
Ramsey's speech, when Mr. Dalles
Dernier made the opening argument
for the defense.
When court convened this morn
ing Attorney Dalles Dernier occupied
a short time In opening tho argument
for tho defense. Mr. Dalles Dernier
argued on one point which Impressed
him more than any other and brushed
the evidence aside stating that tho
only matter that was of Interest to
the Jury was how J. P. Thacker was
shot. The speaker started In wit ii
llie branch of the case whero Mr.
Thacker picked up the board, and
argued that every Instant of tho time
during the light, J. P. Thacker was.
the aggressor and moved on Clarence,
who held his ground, and when the
two men were clinched, tired the
three nhols In self defense1.
Mr. Dalles Dernier was followed by
County Attorney Taylor, who occu
pied some thirty minutes or'moro In
which he took up the witnesses on
both sides and commented on thc
reasonableness or unreasonableness
of their stories. The prosecutor took
tho view that the testimony of Ira
Clark, who claimed to get out of tho
crib In time to see the whole affray,
was contradicted by the scientific evi
dence In the case, ami the testimony
of tho expert, Dr. Lavender. lie also
reminded tho Jury that Sam Red
mond, who claimed to have Been tho
whole of the trouble after the men
had c linched, was c ontrndicted by
three witnesses whom Redmond had
told he had not seen the shooting.
Mr. Taylor also argued that John
Clarence had provoked the encounter
with John Thacker with tho purpose
in his mind to kill him In the scuffle.
Judgo Sullivan followed Mr. Taylor
and made a speech of thirty or forty
minutes' duration in whic h he argued
that the defendant acted wholly In
self defense.
After Mr. Sullivan's address tho
court took a recess until 1:30 to glvo
the attorneys time to prepare Instruc
tions which they wished to ask tho
court to give.
After dinner Mr. Watson began the
closing speech for the defendant and
had about an hour and a half In
which he went thoroughly Into every
phaso of tho case. Mr. Watson Id a
strong orator, a clear reasonor, and
makes a strong appeal to a jury, and
his long experience at the bar ren
ders hi in well equipped for the task
ho set himself to perform this afternoon.
