The Recorder remarked in this case the application
made TO adjourn m Friday. Under ordinary circumstances
honld feel no hesitation granting the request aud per

there preliminary question besides The merits ana WHICH
think entirely dives;s o! jurisdiction Thinking So
can hardly see that any good viii from delay On the
contrary think the treaty ought be carried out rot only
efecuay but readily do that she should rot
have all the benefit laws but that there should be as
speedy action possible which every magistrate owes 10 the
government, under which he Having examined the
laws connected with the proceedings think would not be

The question is them had had not the United States

committed without the territories Of the United States no
other Court can have exclusive urisdcticn SUCH for m

call him mayor, recorder Judge 1t Is one author

sistraes. 1t idle say that officer Of State govern
ment should be United States officer under such treaty
do not think myself having such jurisdiction, but that
Mr. Raprlie being officer OF the general government has
