Jaunt of Ninety Miles to Es
cape Law
NEED OF GREAT CHANGE
Boodler, Thief and Murder
May Defy Officer There.
"What foreign country is the safest hid
ing place for criminals from the "United
States?
Morocco. Persia, Central Africa, Siam,
Thibet, thousands and thousands of milea
away? Not at all, says the New York
World.
When the officers of the law pursue
him with warrants duly drawn and at
tested, be the crime murder, embezzle
ment, larceny, bigamy, or any of the
other felonies, the man about to flee
doesn't have to seek the uttermost ends
of the earth to escape arrest and extra
dition. ,
Just a ninety-mile jaunt less than the
distance from New York to Philadelphia
and he is as immune from arrest by
anybody as if he were surrounded by a
wall of ice at the North Pole.
A journey from the United- States that
can be comfortably made aboard a com
fortable steamship between 'morning and
evening upon smiling seas, ard with
pleasant company, the fugitive is safe.
And this haven of refuge?
Cuba.
In this year of' grace 1903, with Cuba
before the world a free country, able to
govern lieiself ,to make its laws and to
enforce them, and the United States
standing in the double position the while
as sponsor and protector, the malefactor
is absolutely safe in this pleasant isle. He
can live at the Hotel Inglaterra, Ha
vana, under his own name; hear the band
play on the malecon in the afternoons
while he puffs his fragrant cigar, or
drives in bis open barouche around the
Prado, ogling the pretty girls, without
dreading in the least the touch of a hand
on his shoulder and the words feared by
criminals in nearly every foreign land
under the sun, "You are under arrest!"
That was a far trip which Henry Herr
xnan, the Milwaukee promoter, took the
other day. when he suddenly disappeared,
owing $600,000, under decidedly questiona
ble circumstances. He escaped safely to
Puerto Cortez, Honduras, with which
country tho United States has no extra
dition treaty.
He might more easily have taken a ves
tlbuled train to Florida, junketed on to
Key "West, and from there boarded the
Cubt steamer and been safe forever, or
until Uncle Sam and the Cubans con
clude an extradition treaty.
You could have knocked Deputy Assist
ant District Attorney Perkins, of New
York, down with a feather, when he
learned of this last week, lie has charge
of all indictments, and in due course he
got the case of a man who had stolen a
large sum of money from his employors
and fled the country. He was located in
Cuba.
"That's easy." said Mr. Pokins. 4 Just
wire Governor Odell to have the neces
sary extradition papers prepared."
The message was forwarded to Albany,
but some delay ensued. Mr. Perkins
Wired again, and to his amazement ho
got this reply from tho Governor:
"Secretary of State telegraphs that the
United States has no extradition treaty
-with Cuba. Provisional arrest impossi
ble." , ...
"I -was completely taken off my feet,
said Mr. Perkins, in telling of the inci
dent to a writer for the Sunday World
Magazine. "I thought, of course, that
with Cuba, above all nations, we had
pome arrangement for the swift and easy
apprehension of fugitive criminals, but
it seems not."
"I wrote a letter to Washington to In
quire further and found out that thero is
no safer place in tho world for criminals
to flee that to Cuba, just ninety miles of
our coast. In the reply to my letter the
Stato Department frankly admitted that
in the future they hoped that some such
treaty would be negotiated. But that
isn't doing us any good now."
With Canada no longer a refuge, it is
Cuba now. and just as convenient of ac
cess. It is even safer, too. for when he
was en route for Canada in bygone yon re
the escaping fugtivc was liable to arrest
anywhere till he crossed the border. But
once the steamer for Cuba leaves the
land and is three miles out at sea the
floein passenger is as safe as if he were
three thousand miles away and not three.
When Cuba was Spanish territory the
fugitive was no safer than if he were in
Uurope. because our treaty with Spain
guaranteed that ho would be given up
to the United States upon demand just
rs we give up Spanish refugees. But now
It is different.
However .the world is gradually closing
in on escaping criminals. Year after
year finds new treaties and new laws for
the arrest of men wanted by Uncle Sam
In foreign lands.
A treaty with Great Britain some years
ago made Canada long the haven of safe
ty for boodlers. bribe-givers and bribe
takers, embezzlers and thieving bank afQ
cla s-a dangerous country to flee to.
There had always previously been a colo
nv of expatriated Americans in Montreal.
The New York board of aldermen in 1SS1
went there almost in a body.
John C. Eno. who cleaned the Second
National Bank, of New York, out of 52.
Os. t, made Montreal his home for many
years. When he came back a few years
ago the indictments were squashed. His
father eifected the settlement.
Mexico, too, was another haunt for
wealthy gentlemen who found it dosirabJ
to live beyond the bounds of the Union.
But the unsympathetic dons calmly
Eigr.ed an extradition treaty with the
United States, and now the beautiful City
of Mexico is no longar the abode of a
distinguished colony of embezzlers, ab
sconders, forgers, and boodlers. Tewks
bury, the ileelng New York banker, and
some of tho St. Louis boodlers made for
Mexico when tjiey found that discovery
was due at any moment.
Brazil, top, has shut down the bars, and
eo have some of the principal South
American countries. Central America is
till open to receive gentlemen who have
to leave Uncle Sam's country in a hurry.
Francis H. Weeks, who ruined more fam
iles than any other New Yorker ever
dreamed of doing, made for Costa Rica,
but Costa Rica arrested him till two cen
tral office men could get there from New
York. Weeks fumed and stormed, but it
wasn't any use. Ho 'did liiss "bit"' Ave
years in Sing Sing after pleading guilty.
Egypt was a favorite resort for others,
chiefly European soldiers of fortune. But
with Great Britain at the holm no Ameri
can is now safe under the soft tropic
skies of Cairo. Tunis and Tripoli aro
crossed off the list of safe places, too, be
cause France runs one and Turkey the
other, and both have extradition treaties
of the Iron-clad kind with Uncle Sam.
Algiers is also under French dominion, a3
is Madagascar, so, Mr. Cashier, cut these
off your list when you leave between
days.
In his hasty flight, the gentleman with
the valise full of greenbacks and other
negotiable evidences of wealth, might
thin kthat Borneo, Celebes, Sumatra, and
New Guinea, of any of the other of the
East Indes, would be just the place. Nay,
nay! The Dutch boss Borneo, "Celebes,
and Sumatra, and, with the Germans,
divide up New Guinea.
Africa is pretty well divided up between
France, Great Britain, Germany, and Bel
gium, so expansion has been a pretty
hard blow for the man who thinks the
United States is an unhealthy place. Cruel
Argentine took over all Patagonia, so one
moro place is closed. Denmork owns
Greenland and Iceland, so even these in
hospitable climes turn the cold shoulder
to the weary traveler with tho gold laden
gripsack.
Japan is also shut to the fugitive, but
Korea Is open. China occupies" a peculiar
position. The Chinese won't arrest you,
Mr. Embezzler, but under the law any
American consul may exercise the powers
of policeman, sheriff and magistrate all
in one and throw you into a Chinese jail
If he pays your board till Uncle Sam
sends somebody to bring you home.
There is no extradition treaty with Siam,
but the Siamese would be only loo glad
to cast you into a dungeon cell if Uncle
Sam asked the favor, for King Chulalong
korn is anxious to be friends with the
Americans, who entertained so lavishly
his two sons, the Crown Prince Som
"detch Chawfa. Maha Yajiravaudh and
Prince Chakrabongse. y
. This brings up the. Question of interna
tional comity. In tho old days, when ex
tradition treaties were less common than
they are now. Uncle Sam would say, "You
just arrest and hold my man, and when
you ask me to return the favor, all right."
This was always enough. In that way
Spain arrested "Boss" Tweed without ex
tradition and turned him over to tho
United States.
But now when we seek a favor of a
country with which there is no treaty we
make no stipulations. The State Depart
ment some months ago adopted an in
flexible rule to make no promises, for
the very simple reason that should the
President be called upon by a foreign
nation with which we have no extradition
to arrest and hold a criminal he would
find himself up against a snag the laws
of the land.
"Without duo process of law," reads
the Constitution of the United States,
prescribing that no man shall be held to
answer except In due legal form. With
out extradition, in the case of a foreigner,
arbitrary arrest and turning over a fugi
tive to a foreign country with which wo
had no treaty would be palpably illegal
and without tho Constitution.
However, the world today is a small
place, and is gettting smaller every year
for. the man who flees arrest in the United
States. He is now limited, with one ex
ception, to Morocco, Slam, Ecuador, Para
guay, UruguiT. Bolivia, the little Central
American republic, Persia, Corca and one
o rtwo seml-barbarious lands in Central
Asia. In any of them, bar Central Asia,
and, perhaps Morocca, the authorities
might take it into their heads to turn Mr.
Fugitive over to Uncle Sam. just for the
sake of friendship.
."But he's perfectly safe in Cuba, ninety
miles away."
WANT TO FIGHT.
Some 12,000 Students Want to Go
Against Russians.
Victoria. B. C, June 2. Advices re
ceived by the steamer Tartar from Pekin,
state that Prince Ping has tendered his
resignation on the ground of ill health,
but the emperor and empress dowager
refused to accept the resignation in
structing him to recuperate. Telegrams
were sent to Pekin urging that China de
clare a war against Russia to protect her
rights. The students. 1,200 irf number,
offered to form a battalion of volunteers.
Nikolas Kolessoff, of the Russian lega
tion at Pekin, in an Interview, says that
Russia intends to keep 30,000 troops in
Manchuria as railway guards and as
guards at towns being built along the
railway and military centers estableshed.
News from Ho Nan says that an ofll
call, Hwa Chin, prevented a massacre of
foreigners following the looting of tho
place by rioters of tho Dagger society,
who had posted placards, saying they in
tended to kill all foreigners. An upris
ing has taken place in the northeastern
part of Chaung Ping, in Chi LI province.
An order has been received for the dis
patch of an expidatory force. The Chiu
Chin river boat, while being towed up the
West river, swamped near Sam Shul,
after the line broke and of over 300 pas
sengers on board, bu seventy-five or
eighty ware saved.
The Shanghai Mercury says It is said on
good authority at Pekin that Chan Kul
committed suicide.
HE KILLED HIMSELF.
Man Fishes With Live Wire Grabbed
It and Was Killed.
Lorain, Ohio, June 2. Joe Erisle of
Toledo, twenty-one years old. who has
been visiting here for the past two weeks,
thought it sport to kill carp in the lake
with electricity. He. with a number cf
othor young men ran a wire attached to
the Lake Shore Electric Railroad's trol
ley .wire, to the bank of the lake and
thence tb the Lake Shore Electric's dock.
When a carp swam by the boys would
shove the wire at the ash. temporarily
stun, him by the shock and then wade
in after him.
Engle had just stepped into the water
on such an errand, when he slipped, and
in trying to save himself, caught at the
live wire. He was instantly killed.
TWO NEGROES KILLED.-
Quarrel Over Dice Game With Fatal
Results.
Pitsburg. June 2. Two negroes and a
white boy were killed and a third negro
terribly beaten in a quarrel over a game
of craps at Highbridge, West Liberty,
this afternoon. An enraged mob of whites
had the rope about the neck of the third
negro and were dragging him to a tree
to lynch him when he was rescued by
officers.
Both sides had revolvers, and during
the battle a hundred or mere shots were
fired. The Quarrel was the result of an
attempt on the part of the white boys
to break up the crap game.
