WHAT is CONTRABAND?


ed without delay is: What is contra.
band?" The seizures of foreign steam.
ers by Russian warships during the
past few weeks has caused almost a
generalization In oriental shipping
The decision of the prize court to the
effect that the British steamer knight
Commander which was sunk at sea by
the Russian Vladivostok squadron, was
q legitimate prize Of war has caused
CONSERVATION In Great Britain. The &C.
ton Of England in the case of the Ma.
lacca is taken by Russia to mean an
endorsement and recognition of the
rights Of the st. Petersburg and the
Smolensk, which have been cruising
in the Red sea and capturing neutral
traders, the cargoes of which have
been confscated.
The P & o. Co., has announced that
it will not take a cargo farther than
Shanghai and boats calling at Japan.
csc ports are sailing in ballast. Other
steamship companies are also suspend.
ing weekly service owing to the un,
certainty as to what constitutes a
lawful cargo for Japan. This unset
tied condition of affairs cannot help
but cause feeling of uneasiness
among shippers and ship owners and
until the question is settled between
the nations trouble will be caused con-
tinually in time of war.
Prof. Holland. distinguished inter.
national jurist, writes protesting
against the Russian regulations en-
towering officers to destroy prizes at
sea without distinction between neu-
trail and an enemy's property as not in
accordance with rules, of international
ulations allow the destruction of an
enemy's vessels only, and directing the
release without ransom of neutral
prize on which account a prize crew
cannot be sent in.
Russia's List Objected To.
Prof. Holland proceeds to describe
as far more important, the question of
Russia's list Of contraband, sweeping
into the category of absolutely contra
band things such provisions as coal,
Whereto the contraband character in
any sense of the term usually has been
denied in the continent, while Great
Britain and the United States admit
ted them in the category as condition
al contraband only when it was shown
it was destined for armed forces of the
enemy or for the relief of place be-
sieged."
The imminence of an Anglo-Russian
war in case this question is not settled
at once cannot longer be denied. Great
Britain has been concealing the real
facts Of the case for some time, but
has now given up any effort to do SO.
The United States will no doubt take
a hand in the matter, because Of the
case of the Arabia, and since the re-
cent cabinet meeting the European
capitals have been watching for the
result in the way of conference be-
tween the American ambassador at st.
Petersburg and the Russian officials.

An1iety in Europe.

Some very sinister accounts, both pub
lie and private, of the effect produced by
the Cars decree, continue TO reach
Paris. sh wing that the agitation on be-
half OF reform far from subsiding, has
materially increased and threatens to as
sumo alarming proportions. This Is
very serious for al Europe. II is i'm
possible 10 loresee what might come OF
a great internal commotion in Russia.
Already the turn taken ty the war in
the Ear East DISCONTINUED 70 disturb that
equilibrium or balance of power, which
was one Of the chief guarantees OF peace
on the continent. should Russia now
be distracted By grave trouble at home
it could not fail to produce shock to
the general political situation, which Is
even now not quite reassuring. There
have been lately certain indications that
the relations Of some Of the European
powers are not as satisfactory as could
he desired. Some recent events would
appear to have acted as fresh stimulants
TO old enmi,:es. and there are strong
grounds for assuming that not all those
who talk loudest OF peaceful intentions
are the principal promoters OF peace.
Altogether it Will be prudent, while hay'
ing one eye fixed on the far East to keep
the other on Europe, where a domestic
catastrophe to Russia might have unto
ward consequences affecting the other
mowers.
