bearing on the sending by foreign nations TO this

charge of desertion, and held to await requls-
ton papers from Russia Haheas corpus proceed
ings for the release of AleXandroff were brought

tended that the treaty between the United States

seaman deserted a Russian vessel while in this
country he should be apprehended and returned TO
the latter Government. 1t was also contended that
the prisoner was not guilty of such an offence, as
the crew of the Variag had never been organized
Therefore it was argued, Alexandroh might he d
deserter from the Russian navy, but not from

for the Russian Government that the treaty pro
vided for desertions from the navy as well as
