FROM THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
The WinslOxx Difficulty.


BY American Press Association to the STAR.
WASHINGTON, May 2O.-At the Cabinet
meeting yesterday the note of Earl
Derby, mentioned In the dispatches OF
wednesday last, was read and con-
sidered. The note reaffirms the British
argument against the surrender OF
Winslow witnOuta guarantee from this
government that he Will not be tried for
any offense other than the one for which
he is eXtradited. In addition to this the
note contains what is characterized as
misstatements of precedents for the
action of the British Government.
1t is the unanimous opinion of the
President and his Cabinet that this last
note of Earl Derby closes the contro-
versy, and destroys all hope for the sur
render of Winslow, and consequent
annulment Of the extradition clause OF
the Ashburton Treaty. Secretary Fish
will make reply reatfirming the position
of the Government on the question, after
which it is believed Winslow will be re-
leased, and then the President will GER
tify the facts to Congress, and probably
recommend tnat notice be given of the
abrogation OF the tenth arLicle OF said
treaty.
