REVOLUTION IN SWITZERLAND. LBW= IN LONDON. On Saturday, at the Bow Street Police Court, London, Angelo Camtioui, aged 66, of Upper Cheyne Row, Chelan i, was charged on an extradition warrant, fp anted by Mr. Vaughan, with the commission of the crime of murder within the jurisdiction of the Swiss Republic.—The prisoner is a owerfully built man, standing Fix feet in height. He has a cliiik complexion with a long pointed inn grey beard, and large black piercing eyes. He was dressed in a long dal k overcoat and a dark tweed suit. the warrant was issued a fortnight ago and the greatest reticence was observed by the autho ,ies at Scotlend yard with reference to the matter. r. Grain said that he had had a consultation with the Swiss Consul, who had instructed his solicitors. He (Yr. Grain) would hve to ask for a remand, and suggested that it 00 ld be granted for the convenience of bo h sides, on the formal evidence of arrest.—Mr. Lush ingtou : Then we will have formal evidence of arrest.—lnspector Froest said : Last night, at a 5.4.5, I went to Upper Cheyne Row, Chelsea. I saw the prisoner's daughter, and asked her if her father was in. I then went to a shed adjoining the house, and saw the prisoner with a number of other foi eiguers. I was accompanied by Sergeant Lowe and Constables Harlot and Fox. I asked the prisoner if he was Angelo Castioui. He replied, in English, " Yes." I said, "1 have a warrant for your arrest for murder committed within the jurisdiction of the Swiss Government." He said, "Read it," which I did. He said, "Let me see it." I handed it to him, and he read it. He said, "Very well, I wil go with you. Will you allow me to put on some clothes ?" We went with him to a room he called his bedroom, and on a shelf I found a cartridge-pouch containing 140 Mini° tall cartridges and 40 revolver cartridges, and a bottle containing about half a pint of gunpowder, also a can containing needles, whioh, I believe, are used in the Millie rifle. He was brought to Bow Street, and the charge was read over to him again, and he made no reply.—Mr. Grain: Do you know whether he wrote to the Swiss authorities 7—Witness: No.—Do you know that he lives in his own house, and has lived in England for seventeen years 2-1 do not know that. 1 know that he has lived there for some years.—And you had no difficulty in arresting him ?—No, he came quietly. —Mr. Freshfield, on behalf of the Swiss Consul, asked for a remand.—Mr. Grain said he should like a remand on this evidence, as, with reference to what was called a revolution in Switzerland, he should like to look into certain Acts of Parliament. As fur as he could see at pre sent,a serious question might be raised with reference to political matters. It was a peculiar and a very serious case, and he would suggest that a remind should be taken for a week, as there were dittereut papers he was desirous of obtaining from Switzerland. In this he -(Ir. Grain) was sure he would bo assisted by the Swiss authorities.—Alr. Freshtield said that after next Saturday they would be in a position to proceed with the oase.—Mr. Grain then said he must make an application of a very unusual character, and that was for bail. He would be able to satisfy the magistrate, and also the Swiss authorities, for any amount. The prisoner had been resident in England for 17 years, and was a wellknown soulptor.—Mr. Lushington said he could not grant hail, and the prisoner was removed in custody.  D16.4,31E0 US
