Eytrndltinn Treaties.

Washington. December 1.-THE state de-
partmont has been devotng much atten-
tion of late to extension of its system Of
extradition treaties and by recent additions
ii has considerably narrowed the oppor
tunities OF criminals TO find places of
refuge from arrest and punishment.
The last additions to the list of these
treaties are with Argentine and the orange
Free State, which were yesterday trans
mitted to the senate. The Argentine treaty
is patterned after cur treaty OF 1889 with
Great Britain. which is regarded as a
model convention of its kind. There waa
much need for this particular treaty be-
cause the Argentine government had re
fused to surrender fugitiyes from the
United States on the ground that the
United States did not reciprocate. The ne
COLLATION. of the treaty was delicate ana
difficult undertaking, and has been at
tanned. It is said at the state department.
by the astuteness and energy exhibited by
United States Minister buchanan.
