Professor Charles Cheney Hyde, one of the framers of the Portsmouth treaty between Russia and , Japan, a member of The Hague conference and an au thority on international law, at the session before the United States com missioner yesterday afternoon, present ed arguments In favor of the defendant. He arraigned the Russian government charging the czar with making a de termined and Inexcusable effort to vio late Russia's extradition treaty with the United States. The history of Rus sia, he declared, had been one long se ries of attempts to abrogate and ig nore the provision a of the treaty pro tecting political refugees, In every treaty which Russia has negotiated, he said, she has always Bought to strike out such a clause. Her power In east ern Europe was such that she had been able to force the Idea upon smaller countries, he asserted, and In conclu sion, said that Rudovltx was "such stuff as heroes are made of."
