THIS English commission appointed IN
1877 TO consider the effect and meaning
Of the laws and treaties relating to the
e~xtradition Of criminals, has decided sub
stantially in favor of Secretary Fish's
Interpretation Of their meaning. 1t will
be remembered that Lord Derby de
maaded that the United States should
enter into a distinct engagement not tc
t-y a criminal surrendered to us for any
other crime than hat for which his ex-
tradition was granted. The commission
now advises that exlrsdition shall EN-.
brace all offences which it is the com
mon interest Of the two nations to sup
press, excluding only those Of a political,
religious or merely local character, and
recommends arrests by telegraph, and
that authority be given to search premi-
ses in anticipation Of actual arrests. The
question Of the trial of a prisoner for an
offence other than that for which extra
dition was granted is not to be made a
matter of distinct engagement, but is to
be left to the honor of each government.
The way is now paved tor a new treaty
which shall aid in The administration Of
Justice on both sides Of the Atlantic.

cations point to the development of the
