sizes the ruling Of Great Britain that

sizes that much OF this oil is being

CAS- YOU are aware the supreme
court Of the United States II 1868
considered vessels as carrying contra
band although sailing from one neu-
trail port TO another, IL the gdods con-
cerned were destined TO be trans
ported by land or sea from the neu-
trail port Of landing into enemy terri
tory. 1t then decided that the char
acter Of the goods is determined by
their ultimate and not their imme-
date destination and this doctrine
was at the time acquiesced in by Great
Britain though her own trade was the
chief sufferer
ION the other hand the neutral
countries concerned Who are anxious
in the interests OF their neutrality to
avoid being used as bases for hostili-
ties by either belligerent. are now
making arrangements which will give
sure guarantees that articles which
may be used in war shall not be re-
exported. In a word they are anxious
20 prevent their ports from becoming

When these arrangements are com
alete it is 10 be confidently hoped that
trade between neutrals will he subject

erner, ordered that he be held under
arrest and charges of desertion be
made against him.
Davis laughed at the idea of charges
against a man who hated Confederates
as he hated poison, and if he felt the
least doubt about his being able to
clear himself none of us could de-
tect it,
But the evidence came in heavy
against him. He was recognized as
having belonged 70 an entirely differ
ent corps from ours and as having
played the same game before doubt
less serving as Federal soldier and
carrying information to Confederate
generals. Before the court finished the
case it came out that Davis belonged
to an old Maryland family that he
held commission as lieutenant colo
mel in the Confederate army and was
high in favor with several Confederate
generals, whom he had furnished with
enough information to enable any army
TO defeat twice its numbers.
Davis was sentenced TO be hanged.
His family might have saved his life
had he been convicted OF desertion.
Indeed they were handicapped, know
Ing that he was SPIN fact an Of
fcer OF high rank in the Confederate
army. The best they could do for him
was to obtain a change in the mode
Of his death The sentence was madel

There was nothing unusual about
Davis fighting on the Union side. for

him abusing Confederates with the ac-

Davis In other respects was a good

seemed TO have no selfishness in his
nature-indeed, was type of the real
southern gentleman. We wondered
why he had not been able to obtain a
commission, but he reminded us that
the flower of the Maryland population
was ON the southern side. Maryland
was not a good state for northerners.
We were cavalry, and Davis was
one of the best Of SO far as horse
manship was concerned He was con

about wherever he liked. He rode all
over our camps and, whenever he
took fancy TO do SO. sailed forth sin

was evident Whenever there was tr0u-
