According to State Department offi- cials, the Canadian authorities are justified by the terms of the extradi- tion treaty between the United States and Great Britain in requiring that a prima facie case of an extraditable offense be made out against Matthew Bullock, a colored man, before he can be surrendered to North Carolina on a charge of attempted murder. United State Consul Hamlilton, at Hamllton, Ontario, has reported to the Department that Bullock will be released from custody by the Cana- dian authorities nexi Friday unless oral evidence is presented to sustain | the charge against him.
