Embezzlers in Philadelphia and Boston Contrast Graver Crimes
A Philadelphia review lists major embezzlers from 1883 to 1885 including Major Phipps with 560000, the Gas Trust chief auditor with 325000, a clerk with 90000, J F Cotringer 130000, and others like the Ladners and Hazzard. The piece notes a rising depravity, cites Boston symptoms, and hopes penalties will mirror Philadelphia in case of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal Company exiles.

Extradition treaty with Japan marks unique step in crime enforcement
The proposed US Japan extradition pact is the first such treaty with Japan and possibly the first between a Western civilization power and an Asiatic regime. It broadens extraditable offenses to include fraud by bankers, counterfeiting, rape, arson, embezzlement, dynamiting, wrecking trains and casting away vessels. It allows surrender of convicts and accused, but exempts each government from delivering its own citizens and political offenders.
