tendered his in nor had lie anj mi son to lie and the president were not in substantial accord on the great questions now tho country The report lip said probably sprung from a remark lie made to intimate friends to the that for thing would lie embarrass the president and it -.1 saw he doing this lie would resign at once He A cabinet ought always to be- is ready to surrender his at the call of

recently ed and hits returned the document t Washington where it awaits the action o the United States senate It was thin convention together witl a similar treaty negotiated with the Ar gentine republic that made up the issue between President Cleveland nnd the sen ate resulting in the shelving of botl treaties As submitted to the senate bj Cleveland the treaties contained clause permitting nn American citizen to be sur rendered under extradition to the legn authorities of the Argentine republic o Orange Free State or vieo versa the Unit ed States might reclaim from either o those countries a native who Imd escapee from the United States after oi a crime The very rejected this radical departure in th theory of our extradition proceedings am cut them out of tlie treaties by amend merits resulted in sending th documents back to the state for transmission to tiie other t the treaties in order that they might hnv opportunity to pass upon tlie amendments but tlie president refused to go with the treaties unless congress his ideas on the point nt issue and tli documents were hud on the until th present took them u soon after it assumed office and resume negotiations looking final complete on the lines indicated by the senate DCT HO FREE Indication of the willingness of Tur key to oblige the United States who has been for the punishment of the murderers of th
