TORONTO, Ont, October 25.-The Empire,
the government organ, today says "Cur-
reney was recently given to report that the
Weldon extradition act of the last session
had been disallowed by the imperial authori-
ties. The Empire is in position to give
this report an emphatic denial. The posi-
tion of the matter stands thus; The fourth
clause of the act states that its provisions
shall not come into force with respect to fu-
gitive offenders from any foreign State until
after the Governor Generals proclamation
has been issued, declaring the act to be in
force and effect as regards every foreign
State. We are authorized to state that no
proclamation will issue until it is seen
whether or not the Senate of the United
States rati6es the new extradition treaty
agreed to between Great Britain and the
United States this summer, and which was
the chief cause of Sir Julian Pauncefote's
visit to England. If the Senate assents to
the treaty it may or may not be necessary
then to have any legislation on the subject
by the Parliament of Canada"

Loder said today;
''The only food we had to eat for 10 days
in the boat was flying fish and few raw
small sea birds, divided among IL men. On
the 18th day William Robinson lay down to
sleep. When they tried to call him they
found he was dead. The men were deter
mined to eat his flesh, and William Wright
the cook, was ordered to carve the body.
''The first thing done was to break in Rob
inson's skull and from the fracture each man
sucked blood as long as it would last. Then
the cook stripped the flesh from the ribs.
Next day the strips were placed on the
water tight compartments and dried in the
sun. 1t was then eaten.
''They then threw the mutilated body into
the sea.
1.-TWO days after Robinsons death, Third
Engineer Thomas Hunt died. His body was
also cut up for food" In about three days,
said Loder, the limbs and feet began to
swell and several have since broken out in
ugly sores.
