WILHELM MAY QUIT
HOLLAND At WILL.
IN THE EVENT OF A REQUEST
OR DEMAND FOR SURRENDER
HE MIGHT BE DETAINED.
RED TAPE IS GUIDING POWER
Tribunal Under Whose Jurisdiction
Party Resides Must Finally Pass
On Matters in Question.

Amsterdam-There is nothing to-
prevent the former German emperor
or the former crown prince from
leaving Holland at their pleasure, ac-
cording to high government author
ity at The Hague quoted by the Am
sterdam Telegram correspondent. H.
either Of them should leave, however,
the official quoted said. the surprise
of their departure would be "unpleas-
ant both for the Dutch government
and the Dutch people,
Should there come, however, a de-
maud for the former kaiser's extra
dition," the official said in an inter
view, land should he then want to
depart suddenly. it is possible he
would be prevented. He can, accord
ing to the law OF extradition, be ar
rested at the request OF a foreign
government, but a demand for his
extradition must be made within a
certain period.
when the demand for extraditon
comes it will be examined in the
light OF laws and treaties first The
law to be considered Is the extradi-
tion law, Article II whereof specifies
offenses for which foreigners will not
be extradited Etradition Is also
subject of a number OF other restric-
otins, formalities and guarantees.
Should there come a demand which
is technically correct and in order,
the government must first obtain the
advice Of the tribunal under whose le-
gal Jurisdiction the person wanted is
residing. Amerogen, being in the de-
partment OF Utrecht, the tribunal Of
that department would have to decide:
