THE cAvELL CASE.
tFrom the New York Tines

tFrom the New York Times.) *-...s
Few of the expressions of horror over the
death of Miss Cavell did not contain the saving
clause that her trial, conviction and execution
were entirely legal, but that the authorities
should have taken into account her sex and the
moral effect of such a merciless carrying out
of law. But what Miss Cavell did, and con-
fessed to having successfully done the aiding
of English soldiers to reioin their comrades
was performed on the neutral territory of Bel
gium, which had been violated by Germany.
Thus the illegality of her act developed its
monstrous proportions, in German military
eyes, merely through their own initial illegal
ity and in contradiction to their own dictum
as set forth in the Kriegsbrauch: IF the ter
.ritory of neutral state is entered upon by
one of the nations at war for the purpose of
military action, the neutral state is entitled to
oppose the violation of its territory by all
means in its power, and to disarm the troops
which have entered it, Paradoxical as it may
seem, Miss Cayell's illegal act was committed
against Belgium and not against Germany.
