ed judgment on th- application for the
discharge of Henry Garbutt, held for ex-
tradition to the State of Texas on a charge
of forgery. On the be ch were Chief
Justice Galt and Mr Justice McMahon..
The reasons submitted on the prisoner's
behalf in support of e motion for die-
oharge was that the 'tinier judge of thi,e.
County of York is n • t au extradition judge

It is held that by a interpotration olauesee

proceedings are for c... mi tial, uotsfor con-
viction. At all event there was sufficient
independent eyideuce of the facts to justify
