The large blackboard, which was dis
played before the jury with the fig
ures showing the alleged shortage az
well as the totals for the monthly and
yearly reports made by Miss Bentlage
and the alleged discrepancies as re-
vealed In the bank deposit slips for the
corresponding dates, was q valuable
asset for the plaintiff In bringing the
amounts clearly. before the eyes Of the
jury. A protest was raised by the at
torneys for the defense on the grounds
that the figures on the board are not
permanent and consequently cannot
be considered as an exhibit.
II have never heard Of a thing like
this BEFORE" said John F. Robbins aft.
ter court had adjourned last evening.

against the blackboard Monday morn.

The Judge. however, ruled Friday
morning that the blackboard was ad-
missable.

system employed by Miss Bentlage.' ~

In this cash book, the expert testi.
fled, Is record Of credit on de.

conform with the entries made in the
bank cash books. He testified, fur
Their, however, that in many instances
the records of credit on deposit" did
not correspond with the pass books.
1t was in an effort to cover up this
discrepancy that Miss Bentlage was
forced to make double entries of
money.

amount of $354.03 is merely added on

making out my report, l took every
deposit recorded in the cash book,
which did not correspond with the
amounts in the bank or the amount
given to the credit Of the bank deposit

Mr.. Jessup then asked the witness
to give a further explanation of the
method employed by Miss Bentlage
In making her books balance in spite
Of the fact that the entries did not
agree.
Miss Bentlage took the bank de-
posts OF February. for instance" re.
piled the witness, ito balance the &C
counts in January. Since the fiscal
year ended January 81, this would
balance the books for the entire year

Because Of the maze of figures
which had to be used in arriving at
the total amount of alleged shortage,
the witness was on the stand five
hours Friday. Wilfred Jessup stated
today that another day will be re-

which he will be turned to the defense

icipal law Is that there Is no supreme
power to enforce international law.
international law says that floating
mines shall not be laid, yet this has
been done by both belligerents and
several American vessels have been
lost in consequence.
international law declared that be-
yond the three miles limit from the
shore the seas are free to the ships
of all neutral nations to go to and
come and bear traflc as they will.
subjectonly to the right of belliger-
ent to blockade the ports of his enemy
and to seize and condemn all gods
going into or out OF such ports pro-
vided the blockade is really effective
and is declared beforehand and the
ports properly specified. Neutral YES
sells are also subject to the right of
search by belligerent and If any con-
trabrand articles are found on board
these may be taken by the belligerent,
to a home port and there declared to
be prize by court of Admiralty and
conhscated or if it is impossible to do
this and contrabrand If found 1t may
be destroyed and in case of necessity
even the vessel may be destroyed on
condition that the lives of the passen-
gers and crew are provided for and
protected.
Issues Proclamation.
Now at the proclamation issued
beginning of the war on August 4,
England whose forces controlled the
sea, issued a proclamation changing
the list of absolute and conditional
contrabrand and later by an order in
council, date Aug. 20 declared that the
new list should be substituted for the
lists contained in what was known
as the declaration of London, 1909
which embraced the commonly &C.
cepted rules of international law at
that time.
And then Germany proceeded to
violate International law by declaring
war zone around the British Isles
and destroying unarmed merchantmen
by submarines. This war zone could
not be likened to a war zone on land
because land is subject to territorial
authority of belligerents who are
fighting on it. But the seas beyond
the three mile limit are free to the
commerce of every neutral nation.
Thus our commerce has been un-
lawfully crippled by both belligerents.
We still have the theoretical right to
the freedom of the seas, the great
highway between nations, but this
right is of practically very little value
SO long as both belligerents may flout
us at their own sweet will.
1T is true we could today do some
thing in the way of reprisals against
either belligerent. We could seize the

have been so enormous that our ex-
ports have exceeded those of the pre-
ceeding year and the prices received
for wheat and other cereals have been
high.
Undergo Great Waste.
But we have had to undergo waste
and suffering caused by readjustment
of our industries and the great masses
Of our fellow citizens, like the cotton
growers OF the south, have been i'm
poverished and sacrificed in favor of
immense profits to a few mushroom
industries like those of war munitions
which cannot continue permanently
after the need of these supplies is
over.
This readjustment is unhealthy.
We are likely to have boom times in
many branches of industry for con-
siderable period and then when the
war is over the reaction will come
with perhaps widespread disaster in
its train.
Among the industries which have
been affected by the war, is that of
the manufacture of farm implements.
The European demand for such i'm
plements has been cut off both by
the paralysis of much of the agricul-
ture of Europe and by the poverty fol-
lowing in the wake Of war and by the
difficulties of transportation with the
high freight and insurance rates which
attend 1t.
Even our domestic trade has been
interfered with by the uncertainties of
the future. No one knew what to or
der in these troubles times. The dis
asters which overcome the cotton
growers Of the south paralysed the
manufacturers by which that industry
was supplied.
Calamity Follows.
But there are parts of the general
calamities which follow war for which
we cannot hold any particular country
accountable.

because all advantage of transport
was with the Slavs. The railway
system on the Galician side of the
Carpathians is far more available for
rapid concentration Of troops than
are the lines on the Hungarian side.
The former, which is under controL
of the Russians, is measureably COM
parable to the German strategic rail-
ways east of Prussia. On the Hun"
garian side Of the mountains, however,
there is no convergence of the per-
manent ways which run through
mountain passes from different direc'
tions at considerable distances apart.
The Russian general staff thus had
a positive advantage in railway conf
