tined at the outset TO become a STRAIT
egic highway Of tn world II the pres
ent hostilities between Austria Hun
gary and Servia develop into a general
pean Powers.
Treaty stipulation provides that the
canal. like the Suez Canal, shall be
free and open to the vessels of COM
merce and of war OF all nations" and
shall never be blockaded. nor shall
any right OF war be exercised nor any
act OF hostility be committed within
IT,"
The liability OF search would be a
hazard to Suez and Mediterranean com
merce II the present war clouds burst,
and II was pointed out that commercial
activities might be more and more cur
tailed as the parties to the conflict de-
fined more and more sharply the COM

large part Of the Suez commerce might
be diverted to Panama.
While the vessels of war as well as
OF commerce OF belligerepts may freely
use the canal exact rules have been
devised to maintain the strlctest neu-
trality Of the waterway. The transit
OF war vessels must be made with the
least possible delay. and with only
such intermissions as may result from
the necessities OF the service. No bell
ligerent may embark or disembark
troops. munitions OF war or warlike
materials In the canal, except in case
OF accidental hindrance Of the transit.
and In such case the transit shall be
resumed with all possible Dispatch ;
The treaty provisions prohibiting
any act of hostility in the canal pre-
cludes any war vessel from exercising
the right OF search on a commercial
vessel In transit through the waterway.
and this provision likewise protects all
ships within three marine miles OF
either terminal.
