The manufacture OF beet sugar
in the United States was OF slow
and uncertain growth for more
than fifty years, but since 1888 II

pense of translation of the eXtradition pa

would be construed to cover these ex-
penses. The papers are voluminous. and
much time is required to properly trans
late and prepare for submission.
You will remember that the time of the
commission of the two offenses by keeton
and Dale was prior to the time of the rat
ifcation of the present treaty with Mex
leo, and as l understand it, it leaves the
matter wholly optional with the Mexican
Government as to whether a surrender
will be made. l learn that the Secretary
of State at Washington has recently de-
Clined to surrender a fugitive from Mex
leo on the ground that the crime ante
my judgment likely will be. that unless
a special effort is made through the Fed
eral channel the Mexican authorities will
take a similar view of the matter.
