foreign office replies to the caveat filed
by this government at the commence
ment of the prize court proceedings. de-
claring that we would not recognize the
validity of prize court proceedings taken
under restraints imposed by the orders
in council in derogation of the rights
of American citizens under international
law
Earl Grey quotes an American prize
court decision in the case of the Amy
Warwick e Sprague, 123) as deterniin-
ing that prize courts are subject to the
instructions Of their own sovereigns. That
this theory will not be pursued by tho
British prize court in deogation of rights
under International law. Sir Edward
holds to be assured by the statement
that he quots from Sir S. Evans. presi-
dent of the prize court. in the case OF
the Zamora, as follows:
I make bold to express the hope and
belief that the nations of the world need
not be apprehensive that orders In
council will emanate from the govern
ment of this country in such violation
of the acknowledged laws of nations
that it is conceivable that our prize
tribunals, holding the law of nations in
reverence, would feel called upon to dis
regard and refuse obedience to the pro-
!lsions of such order"
Hope. for Constituency.
Sir Edward expresses the hope that
the note of July 3 will have convinced
the government of the United States that
the measures TO be adopted by the Brit
ish government "are consistent with the
principles of international law" but he
points out that appeals from the orders
in council. the legality of which has
not vet formed the subject of decision
of the prize court will lie to the Privy
Council and thence to an international
commission.
The legality of these measures has
not yet formed the subject of a decision
of the prize court: but I wish to take
this opportunity of reminding your eA-
cellency that it is open TO any United
States citizen whose claim is before the
prize court to contend that any order
in council which may affect his claim
is inconsistent with the principles of in
ternational law and is. therefore, not
binding upon the court. If the prize
court declines to accept his contentious.
and if, after such decision has been
upheld on appeal by the judicial COM
mittee of his majesty's Privy Council.
the government of the United States
OF America consider that there is serious
ground for holding that the decision is
incorrect and infringes the rights of
their citizens. ii is open TO them to claim
that il should be subjected to review by
an international tribunal"
The Washington herald., 1915-08-04

SohCeueu
The note declares that the principle
that decisions of prize courts may prop
erly be subjected to international review
was conceded by Great Britain in article
: of the Jay treaty of 1873. and by the
United States of America by the United
States under the treaty of Washington
of 1871. In this connection he further
quotes from precedents established as a
result of the civil war blockade. calling
attention to what are known as the Mat
amoras cases. involving the doctrine OF
continuous voyages. in which the United
States Supreme Court unanimously over
ruled demurrer filed by the United
State against review of the decision of
the prize court and the United States
Supreme Court by an international COM
mission esta blished under articles 12-l1 of
the treaty of Washington. The note con-
tinues:
1T is clear. therefore. that both the
United States government and his majes-
tvs government have adopted the prin-
ciple that the decisions of a national prize
court may be open to review If il is held
IN the prize court and in the judicial COM
ralttee of the Privy Council on appeal
that the orders and instructions issued
by his majesty's government in matters
relating to prize are in harmony with the
principles of international law. and should
the government OF the United States, un-
fortunately. feel compelled to maintain
a contrary view. his majesty's govern
ment will be prepared to concert with
the United States government in order
to decide upon the best way of applying
the above principle to the situation which
would then have arisen. l trust. how
ever that the defense of our action. which
have already communicated to your eX-
cellenCy. and the willingness of his mai
esty's government (Which has been shown
in so many instances to make reasonable
concessions to American interests. will
prevent the necessity for such action

HOW TO LAUNDER NECKWEAR

The majority of women who indulge

to have it done as it should be.

done separately from the regular wash.

Some women clear starch white

spoonfuls to quart Of water, which is
said to leave the material more sheer

The Dumb Waiter.

The value of the old fashioned labor
saving device, the dumb waiter, cannot
be exaggerated. Instead Of carrying
up the many, many things that daily
have to come from the cellar they are
placed on the dumb waiter. No energy
is wasted, aid one trip will save three.
It serves the place also Of the more
modern linen chute. The linen chute
is not to be tabooed, for it has it's uses,
but it is practically wasting space to
have both it and the dumb waiter In
many houses the dumb waiter stops
short at the second loor-the reason
why has never been discovered-or
sometimes it starts at the first floor
instead of in the cellar, another enig-
ma. This is as impractical as it would
be to have the sidewalk end before it
reaches the house. 1t simply doesn't
answer the purpose for which it was
