Copyright; 1886 /, North american cable Esirs Co,
LONDON, July 1S.-Much interest Is mani
tested in political circles hereespecay IN Irish cir
ces-in tho new extradtion treaty between England
aud the United states The corresp ndence leading to
the negotiations dates back to the beginning OF Mr..
Cleveand's Administration Mr. Bayard having
pressed himself strongly against Irish dynanitcrs 1t
that time and having made secret OF his wish to CO.
operate with the English Government in preventing a
recurrence to such methods in the promotion OF the
Irish national The question whether the treaty
provides for the extradton of dynamers and such ag
tators as sheridan. Byrnes and Walsh 10 being dis
cusscd by the Irish members OF Parliament in Lon
don. Mr.. Labouchere authorized the following state
ment OF his Views to-day:
"In regard to any such possible stretch OF
the existing arrangements I don't see how the
position Of persons having domice in Amer
could be affected by extradition treaty between
Great Britain and the United States Tho laws in
may OF course, be gthened to punish
for ionen America to the ury OF British subjects
British property but this would be a matter for
domestic legislation on the part OF Americans By the
present exradiiOn treaty person committing murder
IN England. aiding abettng murder can be extra
ditedt upon the application Of the Engish Government
The question left in suspense always the distinction
between what is political and what Is social crime
This would dicult define treaty. and con-
sequently although there may perhaps be modih-
eaton made In the existing extradition treaty between
Great Britain and America 1t seems difficult to under.
stand how any really important alteration could be
made 1t affecting the position OF Irshnen who have
either betaken themselves to America or are residents
there"
1t would appear from this that it Is desirable there
should be doubt either TO the origin or the scope
OF any proposed changes in the extradion system be
fore the by the Senate of any treaty under
standing the subject.
