CASE OF The LAURADA
LEWIS c. VANDERBILT RETAINED
BY THE GOVERNMENT.

COUNSEL FOR THE VESSEL AR
CUES THAT LANDING OF MEN
AND CARGO WAS MADE IN BRIT
IsH WATERS AND GOVERNMENT
HAS NO JURISDICTION.
The forfeiture OF the alibustering
steamer Laurada came before Judges
Acheson, Dallas and kirkpatrick in
Philadelphia, for argument. The case
was appealed from the United States
District Court for the District Of Della
ware, where the libel Of the govern
ment for the forfeiture Of the steamer
was dismissed by Judge Bradford.
The vessel was attached at Whining
ton, on April 10, 1897. for an alleged
violation Of the neutrality laws in car
ying from this country to Cuba force
of armed men and munitions Of war in
aid of the Cuban rebellion against
Spain. The evidence showed that the
vessel had been coaled and prepared for
IA voyage at Baltimore, and that the
men, arms and ammunition had subse-
|quently been taken aboard off Barne-
gat, on the New Jersey coast The ves-
sells clearance papers were made out
for a trip from Baltimore 10 Philadol-
phia. The cargo and men we're landed
in caba, AID on the return of the Lau-
rada to Wilmington she was seized by
the United States authorities.
Judge Bradford dismissed the libel on
the ground that IL had not been suffi-
ciently established that the intention
to commit an unlawful act had been
formed within the United States. From
IS decision the government appealed
Captain Hughes, who commanded tlae
Laurada on the voyage, left the vessel
when she arrived in this city, and
was notapprehended by the government
officers. Captain John D. Hart was
agent for the vessel at the time Of ths
voyage, and his command of the Lau
rada on a similar expedition to Cubs
resulted in his arrest and conviction IL
the United States District Court, Cap
tain Hart's appeal to the Circuit Cour
of Appeals being denied, he was sen
ltenced TO a term of Imprisonment.
The argument was a technical one
the government contendlng that ever
if the intent TO commit a breach of thu
neutrality laws had been formed upoi
the high seas, the fact that the vesse
was under the American flag brough
her within the jurisdiction Of the Fed
eral laws. To this contatiOn counse
for the vessel replied by citing a mum
Der of decisions apparently contradic
tory of the position taken by the gov
lernment and argued that the arrange
. ment for The landing Of the men an
, cargo was actually made in Britis
, waters.
{ Lewis c. Vandegrift, former Unite
tates district attorney for the DistriC
( Delaware. presented the case for tn
government. while the owners Of tn
vessel were represented by H. H. War

TruHs will receive the chief at
tention of the New Jersey legls-

most reasonable measure ever aimed
at trusts. which II clearly defines. The
punishmcnts prescribed are fines OF
from $50 to $1,000 and Imprisonment OF
from six months to a year, or both
Each days connection. however re-
mote. with the prescribed monopolies
is to be considered a separate offense
and separately punished. The passage
of reasonable antl-monopoly bill
would be more surprising in New Jer-
sey that anywhere else. for that state
has for a number OF years been the
breeding ground of trusts.
