NO OFFICIAL NOTICE OF TREATY

Cannot Be Made to Affect

Snyder Case.

Circuit Attorney Folk has not abandoned
Councilman back to St. Louis to face the
charge Of bribery. Mr.. Folk returned yes
terday from Kansas City. Mo-. where he
went to assist in taking depositions in the
case of Robert NJ Snyder. the Kansas City
promoter. who is under indictment here on
the charge of bribery. The depositions
have not been completed.
1t has been given out at Washington that
the supplemental treaty with Mexico max
ing bribery an extraditable offense Is not
retroactive. State officials therefore. de-
clare that under its terms Kratz cannot be
brought back. They say 1t cannot be made
to effect past cases. but those of the future.
st. Louis officials have not given up the
case. When Mexico was asked first to
give up Kratz the reply was that he would
be surrendered if the United states would
guarantee reciprocity in like cases. That is
against the United States Constitution. and
so could not be promised. Circuit Attorney
Folk was instrumental in procuring amend
ment to the treaty. Now the United States
can promise reciprocity under the treaty
and the ST. Louis officials feel that Mexico
will grant the request.
Circuit Attorney Folk said yesterday that
he did not care to discuss this phase of the
case yet.
Folk Discusses Case.
81 cannot at present discuss the amend
ment to the treaty as 1t concerns KratZ,"
said Mr.. Folk Generally speaking. how
ever. a treaty providing for extradition for
crime Is retroactive unless it be expressly
limited to future cases. l have not yet
received an official notice of the treaty. It
will come in few days. suppose.
"A fugitive has no vested right of asylum
in any country. II this amendment has the
limitation. OF course 1t will not be
retroactive. Whatever may be the
effect Of the amended treaty as con-
cerning the case of Kratz it is of vast i'm
portance, as 1t closes Mexico. which has
heretofore been popular asylum for fu-
gitive boodlers.
THE crusade against municipal corrup-
tion commenced in st. Louis has been
taken up in other cities. notably Cleveland,
Detroit. Chicago, and Minneapolis. from
which last named city number of per-
sons charged with bribery recently fled.
They will hereafter have to find a haven OF
refuge other than Mexico"
Kratz is still in Mexico. and the latest
advices of the Circuit Attorney. who has
detectives watching the fugitive Council
man. are to the effect that he is in Guada-
lajara. After running away from there it
is said he returned. finding II impossible to
elude the detectives and realizing life in
Guadalajara more comfortable than con-
tinual flight. -.
