There has been a great deal OF indig-
nation OF the fireworks variety ex-
pressed 10 certain quarters aud in spo-
radio public meetings over the terms of
the revised Russian Treaty. But it is
safe to say that the orators who have
seen fit to grow RED in the face in de-
punciation Of the agreement as a "slave
law" etc, either do not know, or have
not brains enough to understand, the
terms OF the treaty, as amended. The
following, on the best authority, are the
clauses relating to extraditlon: The
italicized parts show the recent amend
ments and notifications:
.sArticle THE high contracting parties
reciprocally agree 70 surrender 70 each
other, upon mutual acquisitions and accord
ing 10 their respective regulations ana pro-
cedure. persons who, being charged with or
Donvicted Of the commission, in the terri
tori, of one OF the contracting parties, Of
any of the crimes and offeuses specified in
me following article shall seek an asylum
or be found within the territory OF the
other.
"Proriasd. That this shall be done upon
sridsncs OF crinliudiitU -, according 10 the
I1,CS OF ne place irhsre the fugitive or person
40 CHARGED shall De found, could JUSTIFY his or
her apprehension and commitment for trust
II the erims or OGense had been there COM
mtted
charged with any Of the following crimes,
as well as attempts TO commit or participa-
ton in the same, as an accessory before the
feet prOrldsd siich attempt or participation
Il punishable bY the lars Of both countries,
shall be delivered up in virtue OF the pro
visions of this convention.
"4-Murder and msnslaughter, tChen roll
Untarg.
"5-ForgsrB: and tho mtsranees Of forged
papers, including public, sOrcTeign or goVern-
mont acts.
30 Wilrfld or unldirfld destruction or
obstruction Of railroads, lChieh sndaHgers hU-
man lVe.
ARTICLE 3-AR attempt against the life Of
the head NJ either government, or against thdt
o. am member Of his family, ichen such at
teiapf comprises the act either Of murder or 81
uois0niig or Of dcccsSOrBship thereto, shall
not be considered political 08enSe OF an act
connected lCfth such an Ofsnss.
Article 9-In case the person whose eX-
tradition is demanded under the present
convention is also claimed by another gov
eminent, preference shall be given 70 the
Government whose demand shall be earliest
in point Of time PTOridsd, the government
from ichich crtraditiOR is sought Is not
bound by treatB % glce preference otherlrtse."
1t will thus DO seen that Russia, IN
der the terms Of this treaty. can de-
.mand the extradition Of no person
whose offense is not also recognized As =
crime under the laws Of free America
1t does not bind Us to return to Russia
political martyrs, or heroes; but il does
enable US to get rid of q lot Of malefac-
tors who have heretofore found this
country place Of refuge from justice,
persons whose crimes would be as
quickly punished in the United States
as in Russia. and whose presence we
have been compelled to endure because
OF the lack Of q proper extradiuon law.
The treaty is wise and pst a d will
work no hardship TO any honest subject
Of Russia who may seen rRtugstrom
tyranny here.

THE STRIKE AVERTED.

Operators Sign Last Years Scale

PITTsBURe, Pa. April 27.-The con.
vention Of the railroad coal miaers OF
Western Pennsylvania met to-day In
Knights Of Labor Hall. Forty dele
gates were present, 1t was expected
that an advance Of FIVE cents per ton
would be asked by the miners, but after
an all days session and q conference
with the operators, last years scale was
signed. The miners Of Ohio and Hi
nois will probably be governed by the
Pittsburg conventions conduct, thus
avoiding strikes in those States.

WESTON, w. VA, April 27.-The
northbound passenger train on the West
Virginia and Pttsburg railroad, due
here at les D. M, was wrecked almost
within the corporation limits just east
OF here, and 1t is wonder that there
was not q serious loss Of life, but as it
is, every one escaped without any in
jury except few bruises.
How they were saved they cannot
tell. Fireman Tough says al one time
he thought he was being scalded 10
death, as he could feel the steam about
him and inhaled II considerably. There
were several passengers in the ladies'
car when IL went over and they were
churned around in a lively manner.
When the car finally settled down on its
side they crawled out, no one being
hurt except Erik Martin, shoe drum
mer, Of Buckhannon, his leg being cut
by some broken glass.
The accident was caused by a railroad
spike being placed upon the rail pur-
posely to wreck the train. 1t encoun-
tered one about one hundred and fifty
yards east of the wreck and it failed Of
its purpose, but the second one did the
work. The railroad authorities are
quietly at work and if the culprit is
found be will be dealt with accordingly.

RowLEsBURG, w. VA, April ga sad
accident occurred here early this morning.
Guy Bell, a youth about 10 years old, with
two other tramps, went TO sleep in the en-
CINE house last night. About o'clock this
morning the hostler. Jack Hooton, ran a
locomotive into the house. As he did so he
was startled by cry Of agony from one Of
the sleepers. When he got off the engine
and went back he found he had run over
the right leg Of young Bell. Doctors
Proudfoot and Powell amputated the limb
a few inches above the knee. Bells par
ents live at Altoona, Pa, and it is said his
father is very well TO do. His condition
was critical this morning, but is much Inn
proved this evening.

WHAT TIE EDITORS SAY.
Gov. Fleming won Their Esteem.
1rhnr,ssfoa Gazette.


During his brief but pleasant stay in
Charleston Governor Fleming has won
the esteem and highest respect OF all
our citizens, regardless OF party. AS
the chief executive OF the State he has
always acted wisely, carefully and con-
scientiously, and no one ever question
ed his honesty. his integrity, his desire
TO do what was best for the State
and the people of the State.
Personally he stood as high
in the estimation Of the people
as he did officially and sincere regret
will follow his removal hence to-day.
His generous hospitality, his kindly
smile and his estimable family will all
be greatly missed. In the political
arena his place has been well filed, but
still he will be missed and in the social
circle the departure of the Governor
and family carry with them to their
former and their future home the best
of wishes from the people OF Charles
ton.

Opposed Only by Self-Intsrest.
ISiour Cify Tribune.

The party In Iowa has declared in
State convention for the principle Of
electing United States Senators by a
vote of the people and 1t cannot go back
on that declaration. Those Iowa Demo
Gratis who are opposing the nomination
of a candidate for United States Sena-
tor, and they are few in number, have
advanced no great reason for their OBJ
iections, for the simple reason that
there is no good reason for any opposi-
ton to this party principle. The fact
is that any opposition to 1t Is based not
on principle but on eXpediency.

Gov. MacCorkle has made a number
Of appointments since he has been In
Office, and as rule the appointees are
in all respects irst-ciass selections. The
Governor has shown himself a broad

ii. L. Snyder, Regent Of the Normal
schools; C. r. Sperow, member OF the

It appears from the ninth annual
report of the United States civil SER
vice commission that the total number
Of persons employed in the civil
service of the United States In 1891
was 1s3,4Ss. In 1881 the number was
1874 $40. In ten years there was an
increase of 80 per cent, an annual
increase Of more than $500, with every
35Oth person in the United States,
counting babies in arms, federal

inquire If the government cannot be
carried on with a less numerous army.

CHICAGO. NEW YORK AND THE FAIR

Three days remain before the opening
OF the Worlds Fair, when President
CLEVELAND will press the button which
will start the machinery in motion.
But 1t will be purely the formal open
ing, for only one bullding-that con-
tanning the government exhibit-will be
ready for exhibition purposes.
1t is the greatest undertaking Of its
character that has ever been attempted,
and few will complain because Chicago
has failed to keep her promise TO be on
the dot with everything complete by
May l. In addition to the magnitude
OF the enterprise, the management has
been hampered even so late as last
week by strikes, cyclones and snow
storms.
New York, however, Is inclined
to put on an I-toldyou-so sheer at
Chicago's expense, and the Al
bany Argus points out that
.'when President CLEVELAND touches
the electric button that is to set the
machinery going instead Of looking
upon a magnificent exposition, such as
we have been promised, he will gaze
upon a dreary lot of incomplete and
empty edIfices."
True. But has New York ever &C.
complished anything Of this kind to
warrant the claim that she would have
done better had the task been assigned
to her instead Of to Chicago?
