ARABIA CASET0
Be ARGUMENT
OF U. S.PACKERS

Chicago, Sept. 19.-The case of the
steamer Arabia, which arose during the
Russo-Japanese war, will be called to the
attention of the state department In con-
nection with the seizure of meat cargoes
by the British prize court, according to
c. ]. Faulkner, Jr., of counsel for Ar
mour & Co. Mr.. Faulkner and Harry
veeder, counsel for Swift & Co.. expect
to leave Chicago for Washington Monday
to enlist the assistance of the govern
ment in the case.
"In the case of the Arabia said Mr..
Faulkner Saturday, "A Russian prize
court condemned a cargo which had been
consigned to Japan. The court was ami
mated by much the same reason as the
British court in the present case. name
ly, that the shipper should prove that the
consignment was destined to an innocent
purchaser
John Hay, then secretary Of state,
telegraphed to Robert S. Mccormick,
then ambassador to Russia, refusing to
recognize the decision. Mr.. Hay said
This substantive principle of law
cannot be overridden by technical rule
of the prize court that the owners OF
the captured cargo must prove that
no part of it may eventually come to
the hands of the enemy's forces. The
proof IS of an impossible nature. and
it cannot be admitted that the absence
of proof in its nature impossible can
justify the seizure and continuation.
This principle continued Mr.
Faulkner. las laid down by Mr.. Hay
was later accepted by the Russian gov
eminent
Mr. Veeder explained that the cnus.
ually heavy shipments to neutral coun-
tries after war was declared was due
to the fact that Germany raked these
countries dry of foodstuffs and the
neutrals had to replenish.
Cargoes held at Rotterdam by the
British embargo. valued at many mil
ljons of dollars, are expected to be
again called to the attention off the
Washington government.
According to w. F. Ulrich, vice presi-
dent of the Importers Forwarding Co.
Chicago, cargoes valued at approximately
100000 consigned to Chicago alone are
held up at Rotterdam.
That will give an IDEA of the value OF
the shipment destined to other cities as
well as Chicago and held up in this high
handed way" said Mr.. Ulrich. 1.-THE
shipments were purchased in good faith
at neutral port, but the ships dare not
move for fear of confiscation. l have
conferred with the packers and so far
as possible we will join issues"
Next Monday afternoon the executive
committee of the Chicago Association of
Commerce will consider reports on the
situation and determine what action shall
be taken for importers as we'll as the
packers. We expect that the associa-
ton will lay the whole cater before
the state department without delay"

was paid by the nine states in New Eng
land and in the North, and if we add
Ohio, Minnesota and Missouri, the record
is that these u states paid s45.oCO.oo0. or
rs per cent. of the income tax paid by
48 states.
This gives us an idea of the purposes
of the gentlemen who impose these
taxes and an idea of who pays them.
This 100000 from Massachusetts was
taken from money which would either
have been spent or invested in this state,
and the loss falls upon the entire COM
munity.'
THE revenue of the government raised
by the Republican party fell with even
ness on all parts of the country, but
this cannot be said of the Democrats.
Before the last national election they
predicted that if they had the chance
they would reduce Republican expendi-
lures. They We're given the chance and
the result has been the largest congress
sional appropriation in the history of the
nation. That is how they kept this
promise.
Since the war began and our exports
have been immense, revenues have fallen
off because the war has acted as a pro-
hibitory tariff in very many directions.
The Democrats also predicted that BY
a reduction of the tariff they would re-
duce the cost of living. That was false
and they know it. Perhaps that attrib-
utes to them a greater rapidity of intel
lectual operation than they possess"

In the Balkans
The political situation in the Balkans
is still shrouded with considerable mys-
terry. The Bulgarians, having secured
what they wanted from Turkey in the
cession of a railway line, appear to be
we'll satisfied for the present. But there
is now talk in Berlin of the Bulgarians
taking by force, if they cannot get it
otherwise, the portions of Macedonia
taken away from them by the Serbians
and Greeks during the last Balkan war
1t is asserted that the Bulgarians have
called to the colors all the Macedonian

Bulgarians.
B!lsaria's Danger
With Bulgaria surrounded by Serbia.
Greece and Rumania, and her coasts
open to attack by Anglo-French, Italian
and Russian fleets, however, it is believ-
ed here that Bulgaria will hesitate before
throwing in her lot with the Contra!
Powers and Turkey.
Turkey is declared to be having her
own troubles over the cession of the
Dedeaghatch railway. The Mussuman
population in this strip of land is said
to be in revolt against being placed I'M
