%NATURALIZED AMERICANS
AN INTERNATIONAL DIFFERENCE OF
OPINION IN THE MATTER.

Minister NcLea Instructed to Inform
Flonrens that a United States Decree of
Naturalization Is Not Open to Empcach-
ment by French Courts.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-In compliance
with a senate resolution calling for the
information, Secretary Bayard sent to
the senate copies Of a correspondence
which has been in progress for several
years between representatives Of the
United States government and those of
the French government in regard to the
enforced military duty required by
France of naturalized American citizens,
and Of American-born citizens of a
French parentage, who in visiting France
may be discovered by the authorities
there. The cases of John Franchier,
John Pierre Arbios, John +. Gerard and
Albert Gudroit are covered by the cor
respondence. Arbios was born In France
but his father came to America and was
naturalized during the sons minority.
Franchier and Gerard were naturalized
American citizens of several years resi-
dence in this country. The latter was
born at Cambridge, Mass, of French
parents, who passed a good portion of his
minority in this country. In each of
these cases the American minister had
been directed to lay the matter before the
French authorities and demand the re-
lease of the citizen, together with such
other relief as the circumstances may
seem to require, and the reply of the
French minister has uniformity been in
effect that the question of allegiance was
one over which the administration had
no jurisdiction, and which must be
settled by courts. They set forth that
under French principles citizenship is
conferred by parentage, and not by the
place of birth, and that expatriation of
the French citizen requires the consent
of the French government. Upon these
points Mr.. Bayard has instructed Min
lister Mclean to inform M. Flourens that
the government of the United States
holds that the decree of naturalization
granted by it to a French citizen is not
open to impeachment by the French gov
eminent, either in it's executive or Judi
cial branch, and that if it is alleged to have
been improvidently issued the remedy is
by application to the department of state.
