The two young gentlemen advanced

the tsar's only purpose In extraditing
Rudovlti was, not to try him for mur
der, but to punish him summarily by
military court martial for revolutionary
teachings.
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."
