THE EXTRACTION MUDDLE-FINAL CORRE-
spONDENCE BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES
AND GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON, July 13.-The final correspond
ence between the United States and Great
Britain on the eXtradition question, includ-
ing Earl Derby's note Of June 3Oth, to Sec
rotary Fish, is published to-day.
Earl Derby, in his note, says that the cs-
sential principles OF eXtradition, rs prac-
ticed by England, are that person surren-
dered on an extradition treaty can be tried
on no offence except the one for which he is
surrendered. This is the proper construc-
ton OF the treaty of 1912. Her Maiesty's
Government thinks the act of 1870 is ims
portant; but without it would maintain the
position the Government maintains-the
right OF asylum until criminality according
to the law Of England is shown. This ap-
plies forcibly in the case of political offences.
The great object in requiring evidence, not
merely establishing an offence called by the
name according to-the law OF the surren-
dering country, is to prevent the surren-
der OF person on charge OF crime
OF uncertain meaning, and his subsequent
trial on facts considered as establishing a
political offence, and not for the crime for
which the surrender was made. The surren-
dering country must have the facts to Judge
whether the offence is political.
Secretary FiSh's assurance that no admin
istration dare violate the rights OF political
asylum by obtaining prisoner on one
charge and trying him for political offence,
is not sufficient, rs the Attorney General
cannot interfere when an offence is commit
ted against the law Of any one State. The
act OF Congress OF August II, 1S4S, CHI. A.,
sec. 8, shows the construction put on the
treaty by the United States. .s...
Lord Derby briefly reviews the negotla-
tons in 1S71-'72-'73, and says the viola
tons in the case OF Brown was not the act
of her Majesty's Government, but it regret
ted it. The Government believes that the
United States is actuated by a sincere de-
sire to maintain the judgment as demanded
by the treaty Of 1912, and they wish the
same construction put on England's mo-
tives. The note deplores the misunder-
standing between thetwo Governments, and
says the British Government is ready to join
the United States in negotiating new
treaty.
