even suggested that on account of this
alleged military necessity the period OF
the detention of such innocent neutrals
may have to be extended to the end of
t.ss present war.
1t is incredible that the German Gov
eminent can be contemplating such an
outrage on such a pretcxt. We believe
that these disturbing reports will he
denied as soon as there is opportunity
for an authoritative statement of the
German side Of the question. Indeed.
the German side Of many other oues-
tons Is yet to be heard; and perhaps
there never was time when the last

imperatively required that the German
side should be heard promptly and fully
by that part of the civilized world
which Is yet at peace.
