The full text of the new extradition treaty
with Great Britain has heen published. 1t
is really an amendment to Article 10, of the
treaty of 1912, and extends the provisions of
that article to include manslaughter, burg
larry, embezzlement or forgery of the value OF
$50 or e10 and upwards, and malicious in
juries to property whereby the life of any
person shall be endangered, if such injuries
constitute crime according to the laws of
both the high contracting parties These
provisions apply to persons convicted of the
specified crimes, but whose sentences have
not been executed. In such cases, however,
copy of the record of the conviction and of
the sentence of the court before which such
conviction took place, duly authenticated
must be produced together with the eyidenceJ
that the prisoner is the person to whom the
sentence refers. But to crimes committed
before this treaty comes into force, and to
crimes of political character, these provisA
ions do not apply. The treaty has been
signed on our part by Minister Phelps, and
by Earl Rosebery on the part of England.
1t has yet to be ratified by the two govern
ments but there is little doubt that it will
be approved. Our rascals have found safety
in Canada long enough; and the people of
this country will hail with delight an ar
rangement which will put a stop to the en-
terprises of men like Emo, and the escapades
like that at Calais short time ago. That
provision of the treaty which relates to NAL
icious injury to property whereby life is en-
dangered, may also be found very useful.

From statement of the operations of the
railway postal service, prepared by order of
the Postmaster General, it appears that from
the beginning of Cleveland's administration

Thirty-four of these waraZ Maine
more than in any other of the six States.
The total number of clerks in the railway
mail service at the beginning of the present
fiscal year was 1868 There were 459 re-
movals, of which 227 were for partisanship
manifested, it appears, after election by the
clerks appointed under the Republican Adj
ministration. and 232 for other causes. OF
the clerks appointed underthis Administra-
ton only one has been removed for partisan
ship. Another interesting circumstance is
the treatment of those clerks who were pro-
bationers at the time the present Admins
tration came into power. The official state
ment says that these, with few exceptions,
were dropped at the end of their term"

DEBATING RIEL'S EXECUTION.
Moving IA Vote of Want of Confidence in
the Dominion Government.

OTTAWA, Ont, March LIT being
known that Mr.. Landry would move his
vote of want of confidence in the govern
ment yesterday on account of the eXecu-
ton of Reil, long before the speaker took
the chair the galleries were packed to
overlooking and hundreds had to be turned
away. Mr.. Landry is a strong supporter
of the government, and as Sir John Mac
donald knew that a vote of censure was
sure to be moved by some French Canadi-
an member he instructed Mr. Landry to
move it. In moving the vote of want of
confidence Mr.. Landry denied that he was
tool of the government, as has been al
legged. He was very mild in his condem-
nation of the government, the whole
course of his argument being that as Riel
had been recommended to mercy by the
jury that found him guilty the sentence
of the court should not have been carried
out. Col Amyott, who commanded the
10th battalion of Quebec during the recent
rebellion and is one of those who have
gone over to the opposition on this ques-
ton, followed in most violent and bitter
attack on The government. He pointed
out that the friends of Riel had asked for
time to secure important witnesses at the
time of the trial, but this was refused
them.

REQUIRING THE POLYGAMISTS.
Gov. Murray Feels Impelled to Veto the
Appropriation Bill.

SALT LAKE CITY, March 12.-Gov Muir
ray has sent to the legislature a veto of
the general appropriation bill. He says
that Notwithstanding the imperative need
of an appropriation to carry on the terri
toral government he must decline to sign
the bill, because it contemplates the con-
tinuance in authority of the present in
cumbents of the offices of auditor and
treasurer. He says the legislature has con
stantly sought to restrict the authority of
the United States in this territory and to
expand the local power. After citing
numerous cases, the governor says: ~
am asked to either sanction these usurpa-
tions, or allow the governor of the terri
tory to suffer for want of the funds neces-
sary to carry on the government. do
not hesitate as to my duty, and fully ac-
cept the responsibility that duty imposes
upon me-" He further calls attention to
his efforts to bring the laws and usages of
the territory in conformity with the ma
tional statutes, all of which he says have
been either ignored altogether or attempts
made directly in reverse lines.

WAsIuNGToN, March ~. A special

stock to government officials began its in

responsibility for the publication of those
facts. No one had tried to influence him
in any manner whatever. He does not
know person who is IA stakeholder or in
terested in the Bell Telephone Company.
He had no motive other than that arising
from the feeling that the publication of
these facts were news and of public service.
1t was only after ascertaining from his
Washington correspondent that he had
made every effort to verify his statements
that he had felt assured that matters were
correct. Only then had he published
those records.

AN EIGHT HOUR DAY.


CHICAGO, March 12.-An interesting re
sumo of the present status of the eight
hour agitation in this city is published. in
which Joseph Gruenhut, a socialist and
the recognized leader of the eight hour
movement in Chicago, is quoted as fol-
lows; The trade and labor unions, the
Knights of labor assemblies, the socialistic
and the international groups are agitating
tremendously for eight hours as full
legal days work Wages are left out of
the consideration, and to be settled by each
or the several trades. According to the
News there are $3.50 working people in
Chicago who would be affected by thr
general adoption of the eight hours per
day. OF these about 5000 are enumerat-
ed as more or less organized, and it is an
nounced that there is u determination on
the part of at least the organized labor in
Chicago to enforce the eight hour day
There has been but little controversy on the
matter between employers and employees
The simple method of inaugurating the
change will be eight hours work on the
first day of May. The programme for Il
combined effort on May to make eight
hours Il days work is detailed, and pay
is to be scaled down in proportion as hours
are reduced. The feeling on the question
is shown in an elaborate series of inter
views with the largest employers of labor
in Chicago and with prominent leaders of
the working classes. All the latter are
confident that the plan is feasible and
that they will succeed. The employers
express the most diverse views. Quite a
number favor the movement, the bulk are
seemingly Indifferent, and a few declare 1t
will ruin their business.
