OF particular states is necessarily under the

operates. The lines on the high seas how
ever are NOT subject 10 the particular con-

cession was granted by the French govern
ment to a company which proposed to lay
cable IRON the shores Of France to the
United states. AT that time there was
connection between the United States and
the Continent of Europe though the pos
sessions ofGreat Britain at either end of
the llne, IN the control OF an association
whlchIhad at large outlay of capital and at
