' \ Consular Rights in Affording Protection to Foreigners Explained By Hon. J. R. Young. BUT THERE’S ANOTHER VERSION Tbs Decent Asylum Glveu Jap«ue.i Subjects by nn American Consul In China Elicits Edwin Chi’s Views on tbo Subject* 'Washington, ■Sept. 10.—The tetter of Hon. J. Russell Young, American min ister to China during the administration of President Arthur, giving Jila views concerning the delivery to the Chinese authorities of two ocousetl soles at Shanghai and insisting that thereby "the.American flag-had been humilia ted" wus shown to Acting Secretary of State Edwin F: Uhl today. He said the communication emanating from Mr. Young, whose official residence in Chi na and Intimate acquaintance with the history and limitation ot extra territo rial Jurisdiction in that country would naturally cany much weight. "And yet." said Mr. Uhl, "the commu nication Itself falls to Infer the neces sary character of tho instructions un der which our representatives In China and In Japan can alone extend prelec tion to the subjects of the other coun try during the suspension Of diplomatic intercourse between the two govern ments. (His statement that this govern ment ’had solemnly promised to pro tect as we would American citizens, the Japanese hi China.’ indicates misinfor mation or mlsconjecture of <|he essen tial nature of those ^instructions. The right to exercise Independent Jurisdic tion over foreigners In China and Japan rests wholly upon treaty stipulations and the protection so conferred la an express conventional grant to particular Individuals and cannot he expandej to Include others by aisrimilation. By ret- son of the existing war between China and Japan, diplomatic intercourse was Interrupted' between 'the two govern ments and each requested of the United States the Interposition ’of Its good of fices for the protection of the subjects of each in the territory of the other. “Our relation to those parties was that of strict neutrality and cf neocs- eity, protection could only be exercised toy our representatives at Toklo und Pekin and to friendly offices unofflolilly and in a manner consistent wi th the po sition' of Impartial amity. The govern ment ct the United States could not, undertake to bring the subjects of each power within ihe-Jur!i*l£:tloa of Its min is tens or consuls, nor Would it be justi fied In allowing its legations or consul ates to be made an asylum for those claimed to be offenders against the law of the local government Japanese sub jects In China remain the subjects of Japan as they were before hostilities began and must of necessity respond to the law of China when charged with offense against the same. So with the subjects of China In Japan. M assent ing to the request of Switzerland that the agents tof the United States In China should afford protection to Swiss citi zens in the absence of Helvetic repre sentatives there, our agents as early as 1871 were Instructed that they could net take Judlclat cognizance of charged against Swiss citizens. In a circular ad dressed to the representatives of this S overnment In foreign countries by the epartment of state on December 15, 1871, appeared the following: •• ’You are Informed that you are not expected to become o> diplomatic or con sular Officer of the Swiss republic.which Is prohibited by the constitution of 'the United States to officers of the United States <who are citizens. The intention Is that you should merely use your good offices in behalf of any Swiss in your vicinity who might request them In the absence of a diplomatic representative of Switzerland, and with tho consent of the authorities where you reside.’ “An Instruction to our minister in China dated July 25. 1872, contained tho following: “ The protection roferreU' to must necessarily be confined to the personal and unofficial good offices qf such func tionaries, although when exercised to this extent merely, this can properly be done only with the consent of the Chi nese government.’ ■tin fact." said (Mr. Uhl, "this point was perfectly understood, when the gov ernments of China and Japan requested the protection of the agents of the United States for their respective sub jects. and the aotlon of this govern- metibwas necessarily confined to in structing our ministers and consuls in those countries to use their unbfficial good offices with the assent of the gov ernment to which .they were accredited In favor of the subjects of the other found within its territory, with express exclusion of the assertion of the right to entertain Jurisdiction over them. In this nay. Japanese In China had. pre cisely the same degree of friendly in tervention conceded In their behalf as Cblneoe In JaiRtn. anti tho Jupintie government neither claimed nor expect ed its subjects In China to receive any greater degree of protection under the "In asserting, as he does, that 'If a Japanese subject within the Shanghai jurisdiction was charged with crime the cooiul general, as a judicial officer, ooukt have weighed the evidence and determined the judgment,’ ex-M! outer Young seemed to have overlooked the fact that the judicial powers of our min isters and consuls In CW.n and Japan are <bv sections iOS3 and 1081 Re-.-iaed Statutes ts be exercised only under tho provisions cf the t react as with thee? countries and only over citizens cf the Untted States therein and cases in which our citizens may be parties. ’tit may be noted Incidentally that air.

In a rxerrt Interview, sneaking of tho re ported action .of Consul General Jerni gam said that It was entirely In con formity with the Japanese interpreta tion of the authority and power of neu tral consuls in a belligerent country, and that should Japan suspect any Chi nese subject resident in Japan of being openly hostile to the Japanese govern ment or believe that Justice warranted his arrest. Japan would not recognize the jurisdiction of sny neutral consul bver the sublert. And. in a stUI later interview, he Is reported ns saying: 'Bo far as the United States are concerned this much of its attitude ■; >,\ ,rl tin- two countries la clear—the protection which the United States diplomatic und con sular officers shall extend tp Chinese In Japan and” to Japanese In China can not Include consular Jurisdiction.’ ’’ WARRANTS ISSlED.

Tho warrant was placed in the hands of Deputy United Stairs Mnis-ial .1. K. MoNeely. Auditor Stone appeared be fore the commissioner and entered into a personal recognizance of #1,0IM) for his appearance at ill!

They will he served on the governor tumor- row autlxra'tho treasurer when be re turns. ... The affidavit contains three charges, covering each of the three denomina tions of warrants with a photographic print of hutli the front and the back of same. These charges allege: “That ou June 23, ISO l, the aforesaid iuentloued state officers did unlawfully und feloniously, at Jackson, Miss, atnl without dltact,on of any proper officer of the United States, print pliotgraphs, make and cause to he' printed, photo graphed and made, and aided In .print ing, photographing and making a cer tain photograph print, an impress in t'oo likeness of national hunk currency of the'said United States.” Then folhr.v* tihee denomination of the warrant, with a photograph print of Its face and back: "All being done contrary <to the form of the statute or the Unified States, made and provided, end against the peace and dignity of the' United tSakes.” The papera were pnlpUTcd by District Attorney ee and Assistant District At torney Henry. The state officers have been expecting Wheze proceedings for several days and were not, cherfoce, tho least surprised at tlhem. They appear not at all surprised and are sanguine of a suceessiftti termination of bite Is sue. These warrants were iBsned In ac cordance with anU act passed by the last legislature, making It the official duty of these officers to execute the same. The act provided for 8200,000 of the warrants, Judge J. A. P. Combipeffi; ex-chlef Jutklce at the supreme? court of this state, Who has been retained to repre sent th suit, said .tonight: "I um confi dent that the prosecution will end in ■the ulter discomfiture of the govern ment. Tho proceedings against the state officers, under a law passed by congress to protect the national Issues against forgery by evH-dtspoifel" per sons, ts utterly Indefensible, and can only be accounted for by assuming ttrtit there to <l> total mlsupprehonslon. by the official directing It.” SOME RICH DEVELOPMENTS Was the Result of the Lexow Commit tee’s Investigation Yesterday, New York, Sept. 10.—The police In vestigating committee resumed Us sit tings In part thvo, superior court, today. Central Office Detedtlvo Hanlon was 'the first witness sworn.
