The recent murder of Senior Bal
maceda, Secretary to the Chilean Le-
CATION in Brussels, by Luiz Wadding-
ton, son of the Chilean Minister, again
directs attention to one of the many
laws that are sadly in need of altera-
ton.
1t will be remembered that Wad-
dington after firing five shots at his
sisters betrothed, ran at full speed
to the Chilean Legation, which stands
close to Senior Balmaceda's house, and
took refuge there. In consequence
of this action the police have no
power to enter the building and ar
rest the murderer, for the legation
is considered to be foreign territory
and therefore inviolable. The murd-
erer is thus able for the time to snap
his fingers at the law and the police.
