Charlton In Court. Charlton, pale and thinner than when last seen out o doors, was brought from the Jail to the court house under escort of the warden and sheriff, between whom lie walked unmanacled and shielding his face from the gaze of the curious crowd by nf h. Dni-tlv oiK-ned newspaper. He vat with eyes fixed upon the floor while Attorneys conferred with Judge lllalr. With the arrival of tiustave Ul Kosa, the Italian consular representative In New York, the proceedings were opened by a moth n on the part of the defense tor an adjournment. Prosecutor Uarvtn said he had no objection to offer provided it be agreed that Charlton be kept meanwhile In the Hudson county Jail and that no pro ceedings were Instituted to take him out of the custody of the New Jersey authori ties. This promise Charlton's counsel readily made, and Judge Blair set the hearing for July 8. Posltlou of United Statea. Copies of Italian evidence of the crime are In the hands of Gustavo Ulrossa, the Italian consular representative In New York. It waa said also before the pro ceedings opened before Judare ill air In Jut sey City that the New Jersey authorities also had a copy of a dispatch sent by the Marquis Paolo Dl Montegliati, charge d'af faires at the Italian embassy In Washing ton, to Secretary of State Knox on the day of Charlton's arrest,, and requesting the young man's extradition. In reply the mar quls was stated to have received a note from Secretary Knox in which It was lntl mated that If Charlton were given up Italy would hereafter be expected to con Bent to the extradition of Italians who com mit crimes in America and flee to Italy. The further exchanges reported In this connection were sold to have resulted In a declination on the part of the Italian gov ernment to commit Itself to ar.y such prop osition on the ground that an Italian penal code provision of a later date than the ex tradition treaty with the United States provided that no Italian subject accused of crime should be tried outside hio own coun try. Italy was said to have made no reply to the State department's rejoinder that an International treaty should take prece dence over a national law.

This Is in accordance with the new unit system recently decided upon, and those who hae been promou Charles Ware. C. E. Fuller. K. L. Huntley, W. U. Lincoln and T. M. Orr. A circular will be sent out from the of fice of A. L. Mohler. vice president and general manager, dated July 1. which tells of the new appointments. It Is signed by Mr. Mohler and by Julius Kruttschnltt. ji, nf maintenance and operation. Koch of the new officials will have the same responsibilities which he now has. but the new system will effect a change In the present way of doing business at the Union Paclflo headquarters. When the general manager is absent under the new ruling one of tne asBistani geueia-i "' agers will take charge, and thera will always be someone in authority at the main office. The titles, general superintendent, super intendent of motive power, chief engineer and superintendent of transportation will be retained by the present holders or their successors to such extent only as may be necessary for a proper compliance with law and existing contracts.

Peary during the highest of the contro versy over their claims of discovery of tho North pole were aired in a German court today, whin the suit Instituted against Peary by Rudolph Francke was opened. Francke who was associated with Cook i In polar exploration, demands $10,000 In sat isfaction of prizes of the hunt, which he alleges Peary required him to surrender in consideration of bringing him back to America. The defense sets up a general denial and further questions the Jurisdiction of the court on the grounds that tho defendant is an American citizen, having no domicile in this city. After hearing the opening arguments the court adjourned to con sider the point of Jurisdiction. Commander Peary was served with pa pers In the suit when he came here re cently to fill a lecture engagement. At the time he said he would be unable to remain here for the local hearing and that he had placed the case In the hands of the American ambassador, Mr. Hill Peary's Interests were looked after to day by Attorney Jablonskl, a partner of Victor Schneider, counsel to the American embassy, while Herr Thiel represented Francke. The latter was present, but was not called to the witness stand. Tht proceedings were before three Judges of the prlvinclal cour. In opening for the plaintiff, Herr Thiel spoke for more than an hour, going over the whole story of the equipment of Cook's expedition, tiie building of tiie supply nation ut Ktah, on the northwest coast of Greenland ; the hunting in that vicinity. Cook's departure toward the pole. Franoko's Illness, the ar rival of Peary and Francke's return home in the Peary relief ship Erik. The lawyer asserted that Peary had caused the plaintiff to turn over to him certain blue fox skins, furs and narwhale tusks as the only condition on which he would take him from the Arctic, where, if deserted, he believed he would die. The attorney argued that the transaction was Illegal In that It was consummated under stress. He said that a pair of narwhal tusks then given up wore later prwented by Peary to Theodore Roosevelt, while hills, where all sorts of sports were cn- Mine of the blue fox skins were given to Joyed by athletes of thirty yetirs ago. As President Taft aud -Mrs. Taft by Mrs. Colonel Roosevelt had already notified the Peary. Counsel claimed that the German secretary that he would not be at these! courts had jurisdiction in the matter be observances,. tho members were undisturbed ! cause Francke, a German, was unable to obtain redress in tho United States.
