AMERICANS STAY PRISONERS
WHEN CAPTURED BY ENGLISH.
Americans Who Enlist in Boer Army
and Get Caught Must suffer Con-
sequenccs-Test Case Made-Stay
Until Close of War.

New York, July l0-Americans who
fight in the Boer armies and are or have
been made prisoners by the British will
have to endure their captivity until the
close of the South African war, says the
Herald's Washington correspondent Great
Britain has declined to comply with the
request of this government to release an
American now confined in the island of
Ceylon, and this refusal will probably
prove bar to further representations by
the state department in behalf of Ameri-
cans captured as belligerents in South
Africa.
The test case was that of a naturalized
American named Morgan, who claims resi-
dence in Virginia. Lord Miner, the Brit
ish high commissioner in South Africa,
disapproves of the release of foreigners
who fought with the Beers. He has an
nounced that person who serves as a
belligerent with the Boer forces loses his
nationality and must be treated as an
enemy This view is concurred in by the
legal officers of the state department.
