BREAKING NEUTRALITY LAWS.

An important and interesting question
will come up for a hearing in the United
States Supreme Court On the 18th in
slant. 1t involves the Interpretation
Of our neutrality laws and is presented in
the case of the Horsa, the captain and mate
of which vessel were convicted i'll Phila-
delphia of violation OF the statute. AL
though this has been on the books for more
than quarters of a century. the highest
courtin the land has never rendered an opin-
ion regarding it and the decisions OF the
minor tribunals have been SO varied a to
make it's real intent constantly more
doubtful In the majority of the cases the
lower courts have held that the law is
directed only against an armed expedition
and that this means not only cargo of
arms, but also the men that are TO use
them. The mere shipment of arms does not
constitute breach of the law. In the case
Of the Itata the federal court in San Fran
cisco declared:
The statute does not cover the act OF
purchasing arms and munitions of war and
putting them on board vessel sent 10 re-
carried. to party OF insurgents in foreign
country to be used in carrying on war
against the government thereof, but which
are not designed to constitute any part of
the fittings or furnishings Of the vessel
itself.
The statute prohibits the fitting out of
any expedition to engage in hostilties
against any nation with whom the United
States is at peace. The collateral ques-
tion presenting itself in the Horsa case
is whether or not anybody can be said to
be engaged in hostilites against Spain,
considered from an International stand
point, in view OF the fact that the Spanish
{ Government has declared that a state of
! war does not exist in Cuba, and, therefore,
the arms shipped by the Horsa must have
| been bought by Spanish subjects, and not
by those of any nation hostile to Spain.
This, however, is a side issue; the chief
| point Co be decided is if the Government of
the United States has the right to inter
fere with a legitimate commercial trans.
action, such as the shipment of arms, am.
munition, medicines H anything else to
any foreign consignee y merchants of the
United States.

may have made a fair profit on the inside
harbor work. there was loss sustained
in working on the Cockspur and Oyster
Bed training walls, which are away in
side the proposed breakwater. There is
no money available for the work, and the
successful contractor cannot receive one
cent before July l, 1897, and then only at
the rate of 10000 per annum, which Is
entirely inadequate for economical work,
especially should the amount be divided
between two contractors, as was the case
in the past.
The appropriation available for next
year is TO be spent in the construction Of
a breakWater in Tybee roads, in the main
tenance Of the existing channel, and in
dredging In Wright's river to make a nav
igable channel feet deep between this
city and Beaufort.
The present anchorage in Tybee roads
is fully exposed TO the action of all de-
structive storms. The annual value Of
shipping anchoring in Tybee roads and
now exposed to destruction is S32, OO0,0OQ.
The permanence of the channel of the
estuary across Tybee roads is largely de.
pendent on their protection against de-
structlve wave-action caused by heavy
northeast winds, so fatal to jetty building
and contractors. During a northeasterly
storm the waves stir up and set in motion
great quantities of material which the ebb
flow weakened during the continuance Of
the gale, would not be able to prevent set
Ting in deep places. This additional work,
the breakwater Will have the effect not
only OF ahording safe anchorage for YES
sells in Tybee roads, but will be OF great
value In developing and maintaining the
channels across the knoll and the ocean
