COL. LYNCH's DEFENCE UPSET

Court Ruling That the Irish Leader,
Who Joined the Beers, is Not Pro-
tected by Naturalization Laws.
London. Jan. 22-The court in which
Colonel Arthur Lynch, member of par
lament for Galway, is being tried on
the charge of high treason, was again
crowded to-day. After reading the de-
position of an American, Lewis Hand
ley, who said that Colonel Lynch had
compelled him to take arms in behalf
Of the Beers at Glencoe, but that he
had got off through the intervention of
the American CONSUL counsel for the
defence submitted that the prisoner
was protected by the naturalization
laws. He claimed that a man was en-
titled to become an alien at any time.
even after the outbreak of war; e.
ferred to the war of Independence: said
there were at least 10000 men of Brit
ish birth In the American mercantile
marine. and asserted that there were
20,000000 people living in America who
possessed two natiOnalities.
Counsel contended that Colonel
Lynch took up arms in behalf of the
Transvaal without secrecy and under
the mistaken belief that the naturali-
cation act permitted this In any
event, counsel added, il the court de-
cided that the prisoner was British
subject he ought to be tried In Aus
tralia where he was born
The attorney general, Sir Robert Fin
lay, replying for the prosecution. ar
gued that Colonel Lynch procured
naturalization for the purpose of fight
ing against his own country, and added
that even could naturalization cover
the prisoners subsequent actions,
namely adhering to the queens enc
mics and declaring his Willingness to
fight against her forces.
Ultimately the court decided that the
naturalization act afforded no defence
in the present case. Naturalization
was preceded by taking an oath of al
legiance to the enemy, which was a
reasonable action.
The case was then adjourned.
