With regard to the military authority the terri
tory of the hostile State the doctrine is decsivey
laid down tand this probably will provoke great
opposition that the occupation of portion of the
territory of State completely suspends the legal
authority of that State and substitutes that of the
enemy, so that if any of the population are subse
quently found IN arms, they will not be treated
prisoners of war. At the same time the army of
occupation has right to seize churches, establish
ments of charity and instruction. consecrated to
scientific ends, and the destruction OF seizure of
monuments. works of art or museums is severely
reprehended.
Among the means of war which are forbidden are
the Of poison. treacherous murder the murder
of prisoners and the refusal to give quarter. the
threat of determination toward a garrison that OBJ
sinaely defends fortress. the employment of arms

tons of the war
The provisions of the Geneva Convention with
regard to the wounded, TO neutrality of hospitals,
ambulances &c. are repeated and strengthened,
and the rights of the military authorities in relation
to private persons are fixed. The limits within
which acquisitions and contributions can be de-
manded are also laid down. In treating of the rela-
tons between the belgerents il is stated that the
diplomatic and consular agents of neutral powers
have the right of demanding from the elligerent
parties the authorization TO leave the theater of mil
itary operations without hinderance; but in case of
absolute military necessity the satisfaction Of SINH

On the whole we may expect much good from the
