That government is extremely anxious that the United States shall surrender her extra.terri- toriality rights in that country, and our state department is not greatly averse to doing so She Is very keen on this subject and under an Amert- can adviser, Siam has undoubtedly made long strides in the direction of modern methods of government. and the United States has about reached the conclusion that 1t would be quite safe to allow American offenders against Siamese laws to be tried by their courts instead of our consular trfbunala
