Paris, April 27.--Holy Russia . has succeeded at last in putting unortho- dox rrance in a most emparrassing position by demanding the extradition of a fugituve subject against whom there is a charge of blasphemy--Am- liteatrofi, a revolutionary novelist and journalist.

Now that he is out of the bounds of Russia the writer has sinned quite as grievously by publishing some biting, satirical verse: in the Russ.

"The most they could accomplish was to discover what they regarded ds eox- pressions showing contempt for things that are sacred to Russia, and blas- phemy in that country is a serious of- id : These were pounced upon as an ex- cuse for punishing the offender, and France was notified that the writer of "the verses must be extradited, The Russian contention is that the offence does not come under the political head, and that = the offender is there- fore amenable to the extradition treaty existing between the two na- tions, Should France be forced to accept this interpretation of the case, all the Russian refugees in France would be practically doomed to long terms of exile in Siberia, But this is not the only peril that now confronts the 1,600 Russian stud- ents who are living here in the Latin quarter, fugitives from their own country.
