Extract q the AGuocate Generals Reports,

Extract 81 the Advocate Generals reports,
dated March l6, 1901.
have the honor to report, that The SEN
tence Of the Vice Admiralty Court appears
to me erroneous. asd to be founded in
misapprehensiou or misapplication of the
principles laid down in the decision of the
court of admiralty referrcd to, without at,
tending to the limitations therein contain
ed.
The general principle respecting the CO.
lonial trade has, in the course OF the pre-
sent war, been in certain degree relaxed
in consideration of the present state Of
commerce. IL is now distinctly under
stood, and it has been repeatedly so decic.
ed by the high cour. OF appeals, that the
produce of the colonies of the enemy may
be imported by neutral into.his own coun.
try, and may be re-exported from thence,
even to the mother country OF such colony /;
and 10 like manner the produce and manu-.
faAures of the mother country may, In this
circuitous mode, legally find their way to
the colonies. The direct trade however,
between the mother country and i.s eolo-
MES, has not apprehend been recognized
or legal, either by his majesty's govern
mens or by bis tribunal.
