PLEA FOR Nicely.
CONTINUED from First Page.l

THE conduct of affairs in Cuba
does not justify-certainly at this time
a departure from the policy declared in
the Spanish treaty of 1871.
Sit is not for the government to
urge that unless provision is made for
the extradition of fugitive American Of
tenders against Cuban laws, a single
or even many-criminals may go I'M
whipped of justice.
9.-Neely's case affords no occasion
for the proposed legislation for he can
be tried in the United States courts
upon the charge now pending against
him.
1O-The fact tina Nicely is charged
with a violation of Cuban Law will not
weigh with this committee.
lin the absence Of any means
whereby the eXtradition of Cuban cit
liens charged with crimes in the United
States can be demanded, the proposed
legislation is manifestly untimely. Re
ciprocal power to demand and reciprO-
cal power to surrender fugitives lies at
the base Of all systems of extradition.
The conclusion reached We're:
eth proposed legislation is without
precedent in the history of the country.
1t is violate of the principles which for
ures. It is a device to enable the gov
INNER to do something which other
wise would be unlawful. 1t seeks to
subject a citizen to pains and liabilities
to which. without such legislation he
could not be subjected. 1t is the eX-
preston of the sort Of power that alb
solute monarchs exercise, but which is a
menace in them, and intolerable in a re-
public"
