THE LONDON TINES ON IMPRISONED "SUS-
PECTS."


London, April s.-The Times, in its lead
ing article on American and imprisoned suS-
poets, maintains the right of every state TO
protect itself against alien or domestic enc
mics of society.
1t refers to General Grants pfetensons,
which the general asserted to a deputation
which called upon him in New York, and
says: at is obvious that the government,
while giving no sanction, direct or indirect, to
the exaggeratons Of irresponsible American
politicians, can fairly meet the wishes OF the
government Of the United States, without i'm
pairing the securities of the protection act. II
has no doubt that the United States will be
informed that favorable consideration will be
given in the case of any citizen of the United
States who will undertake, if released, to leave
the country.

respite, granted under these circumstances,
raises no presumption of the final reprieve or
