His Majesty the King of the United Kingdom of Great

States of America, being desirous of enlarging the list of
crimes on account of which extradition may be granted
under the Conventions concluded between the United States
and Great Britain on the twelfth July, one thousand eight
hundred and eighty-nine, and the thirteenth December, one
thousand nine hundred, with a view to the better adminis-
tration of justice and the prevention of crime in their
respective territories and jurisdictions, have resolved to con-
clude a Supplementary Convention for this purpose, and
have appointed as their Plenipotentiaries, to wit:

His Britannic Majesty, the Most Honourable Henry
Charles Keith Petty-Fitzmaurice, Marquess of Lansdowne,
His Majesty’s Principal Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs:

And the President of the United States, the Honourable
Joseph Hodges Choate, Ambassador Extraordinary and

Articles:—

Article I.

The following crimes are added to the list of crimes num-

of the twelfth July, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-

say:—

14. Bribery, defined to be the offering, giving, or receiving
    of bribes made criminal by the laws of both countries.

    countries, against bankruptcy law.

Article II.

The present Convention shall be considered as an integral
part of the said Extradition Conventions of the twelfth
July, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-nine, and the
thirteenth December, one thousand nine hundred, and the
first Article of the said Convention of the twelfth July, one
thousand eight hundred and eighty-nine, shall be read as if
the lists of crimes therein contained had originally com-
prised the additional crimes specified and numbered fourteen
and fifteen in the first Article of the present Convention.

The present Convention shall be ratified, and the ratifi-
cations shall be exchanged either at Washington or London
as soon as possible.

It shall come into force ten days after its publication in
conformity with the laws of the High Contracting Parties,
and it shall continue and terminate in the same manner
as the said Convention of the twelfth July, one thousand
eight hundred and eighty-nine.

In testimony whereof the respective Plenipotentiaries
have signed the present Convention in duplicate, and have
thereunto affixed their seals.

Done at London, this twelfth day of April, one thousand

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by and with the advice of
His Privy Council, and in virtue of the authority committed
to Him by the said recited Acts, doth order, and it is hereby
ordered, that from and after the twenty-second day of
February, one thousand nine hundred and seven, the said
Acts shall apply in the case of the United States and of the
said Convention with the President of the United States of
America:

Provided always that the operation of the said Acts shall
be and remain suspended within the Dominion of Canada
so long as an Act of the Parliament of Canada passed in
1886, and entitled “An Act respecting the Extradition of
Fugitive Criminals,” shall continue in force there, and no
longer.
