MATION REACHES AFTER COLLIS SACRAMENTO, July 21.—The State Department to-day made a formal de- mand upcn the Canadlan Government for the surrender of Attorney George D.

Adee, Acting Secretary of State: Referring to your letter and requisition of the 16th instant, with formal request for the surrender of .George D. Collins, charged with perjury in California, I have this day made request of the Canadian Government, through the British Embassy. The President's war- rant and papers will go to the agent to-day gl care of the American Conmsul at Victoria, This action by the State Department is necessary to secure Collins’ extradition, but in no manuer affects the judicial in- quiry now in progress at Victoria to determine whether Collins shall be sur- :;ndered to the United States authori- . ATTACKS THE TREATY. VICTORIA, B. C., July 21.—George D. Collins, on trial for extradition on a charge of perjury Committed in San Francisco, continued his technical objec- tions this morning before Judge Lamp- man, fighting vigorously against being surrendered. He contended there could be no extradition without a treaty and an_extradition act going beyond the treaty was void, that there can be no ex- traditable. offense unless it was enumer- ated in a treaty and a statute by the Legislature is necessary to enforce the treaties. He held that Canada went beyond the scope of the treaty by the extradition act of 1886 and that the act, in which perjury is made extraditable, 1s null be- cause it went beyond the limits of the treaty, wnich did not include extradition for perjury. The act of 1839 omitted per- Jury from its list of extraditable offenses and this act was consistent with the Ashburton treaty of 1842, which omitted perjury. He quoted numerous authori- ties in support of his technical objections, not only to the scope of the treaty but as to whether the affidavit made by him in San Francisco in the maintenance suit, constituted perjury. Frank - Higgins, counsel for the San Francisco police, sald that Collins had failed to speak of the Pauncefote-Hay, treaty of 1900, which was the last treaty upon which an extradition act was based. The acts of 18% and 1889 were to be con- sidered together and they held that an extraditable crime may be any described in the schedule of the act. This, argued Higgins, disposed of Collins’ cantention. His contention, sald Higgins, was not new.- A case had been decided several years before and upheld in an appeal at Quebec by Judge Wurtele, in which the same points as have been raised by Collins were presented. Although it was contended that perjury was not an extra- ditable crime because it was omitted from the schedule of the act of 1889, the judge held that perjury was an extra- ditable- offense. POSITION NOT TENABLE. Higgins sald that as this effectually disposed of Collins’ contention, there was no use di it further. Collins, how- ever, went on to argue that this ruling did not cover the point and continued his objection. argued that Collins, in swear- ing to the false affidavit in San Fran- eisco, had committed perjury within the meaning of the common law of Canada’ and quoted authorities to support his con- tention. As to the objections of Collins, they were mere technicalities, said Hig- gins, which were absurd when followed to a logical conclusion, as all matters of procedure could not be identical in Cali- fornia and Canada. For instance, a man may be married by a. justice of the peace in California, but not in Canada, and it would be absurd to contend if bigamy were an extraditable offense that the California ceremony .did not constitute a On Alvarado street the driver, Morris Smith, turned directly in front of a | moving car, which struck the carriage.

John Kavanagh, 13 years of | age, residing at 2128 Pifteenth street, and Robert Fisher, one year his senior and living at 111 Castro street, were seriously injured and may lose their eyesight. Frank Currid, also 13 years ald, and re- siding at 151 Henry street, escaped more fortunately but he lles in the hospital with his face and body badly burned and torn. It appears frém the report made by Detectives Graham and Harrison that several boys living in the neighborhood entered the quarry buildings of Quimby & Harrelson at 105 iuden sfreet and car- ried off about seventy-five sticks of dyna- mite. . This was shortly before July 4 and the boys, headed by Edward Steengrafe, planned an elaborate celebration on the national birthday. The explosive was hidden away in a sack, but the lads had too much to occupy their attention on the day the feast of noise had been arranged for and the deadly stuff lay in its place of seclusion since that time. Yesterday, shortly after the noen hour, that sack was resurrected by several of the juvenile element, among them being the three boys who were injured.
