CoNsPIRAroRs ARE SAFE.
Treaties Protect the Plotters In
America.

New York. Aug. There is little
that the United States can do in the
way of aiding the Italian government
in prosecuting those engaged in the
conspiracy which resulted in the assas-
sinatiOn of King Humbert if it should
be proven that the conspiracy was en-
tered into in America. says the Wash
ingtOn correspondent of the World
Officials Of the state department and
the department Of justice say all the
eXtradition treaties between the United
States and other countries provide that
persons charged with political crimes
shall not be surrendered for trial IS
a general rule of international law the
killing of a ruler or an attempt against
the life of a ruler is q political crime
There is no such provision in the treaty
between the United States and Italy
1t would, therefore, be impossible to
grant a demand from the government
of Italy for the eXtradition of any per
son in the United States who may
have conspired with the murderer OF
King Humbert. 1t would also be i'm
possible for such persons to be pun
ished either under federal or state laws
for cOnspiring to commit a political
crime in a foreign country.
It would be practically impossible for
the United States to surrender TO the
Italian government as matter of cOUr-
tesy any of the alleged cOnspirators,
as, if the attempt should be made they
would doubtless apply to the courts for
Writs of habeas corpus.
While persons engaged in this coun-
try in a conspiracy against the head
of a foreign government could not be
punished, a conspiracy to kill the pres
ident Of the United States or even d
threat to kill him could be punished
just the same as a conspiracy or threat
to kill any private person.
The possible connection between
Bresci and the New Jersey group of
anarchists has moved this government
to take measures to investigate the an
archist situation in and around New
York. Just what steps have been taken
is not made public

Chinese Terms Not Favored.

secretaries
Chinese Terms Not Favored.
The Chinese imperial government is
putting forth the most powerful efforts
TO secure through negotiations the
abandonment of the international
movement upon Pekin. The cablegrams
received at the state department to-
day from the Earl Ii Hung Chang
all tend to demonstrate his desire to
secure the succor of the mini at
Pekin and their delivery at t sin.
if this can be safely effected ing
that in return the information mn
can be halted.
Unquestionably a proper ass zee of
the safe delivery of the minist-. you'd
have some effect upon the temper Of
the powers. and it is possible shat the
United States would give ear to over
lures in that direction were not the
attempt made by the Chinese to i'm
pose conditions upon the delivery that
are altogether Objectionable.
Such, for instance, is a stipulation
that the Chinese imperial authorities
shall be absolutely absOlVed from the
consequences of the agreement and for
liability for what has taken place in
Pekin. The first stipulation might be
regarded as Qlrect invitation TO the
Boxers to murder the ministers on their
way to the coast and, therefore, our
government will leave it to Mr.. Con-
ger himself whether or not he regards
it as safe TO leave Pekin when the OPP
pOrtunity is held out
y statement has been made in the
dispatches from Europe TO the effect
that the United States is pushing Cen
eral Chaffee for first command. 1t is
said at the war department today that
such was not the case, though il was
recognized that the situation might be
such as to make it necessary for him
to accept command, if rendered by 9TH
| er powers.

General Sir Alfred Gaselee is quoted

Colonel Daggett, commanding the
Americans at Tien Tsin. is also credited
with a similar statement on the same

is probable when sufficiently large, this
force will act independently.

Victoria, B. c., Aug. 1.-When the

OF unrest permeated the cities of the en-

This is best demonstrated at Shanghai
where 10000 Chinese, on Whdrves. with
baggage and all their personal effects in
hand. were ready to take their departure
on the first steamer which would take
them out of the county. Passage on
board the GlenOgle was applied for but

JAPAN COULD SEND 10000.
New Minister Talks of Nations Mil
itary Power.


Washington, Aug. 1-Kogoro Takahira,
the Japanese minister TO the United
States. who arrived in Washington yes
terday, talked on the conditions in China
and the prospects for a campaign In a
general way, he said, il might be stated
that Japan, il needed, could throw one
half of her army of 10000 men into China
but it hardly seemed probable that this
would be done. According to his last ad-
vices, Japan purpOsed sending between
1000 and $1,000 men TO China as her quota
of the international force.
The japanese government he said, had
ample facilities for transporting what
ever troops might be needed. Twenty
transports have already been requishion-
ed and Mr.. Takahira said the Japanese
division could be landed at whatever
point was deemed best and in such guam
titles as were considered necessary by
the commanders now cooperating in Chi
ma. He said there had been the best of
feeling between the Japanese troops en-
gagged in China and the other nationals
ties.
The presentation of Mr.. Takahira at the
White House probably will take place
this week.
