There Is the possibility. that when all
the facts are at hand the American
Government may raise with Germany
the question Of compensation for the
ship. Her cargo Is considered to have
been. II the facts thus far received are
correct. a legitimate subject for de-
struction. Whether the ship was prop
erly sunk Is another issue.
The case is similar to that of the
william p. Frye. concerning which the
American and German governments are
now engaged in discussion. The I'm
preston here is now that the decision
Of the Frye case will determine the
course to be taken in settling any in
cidents that may arise in the Leelanaw "
instance.
Whether tho German commander
was entitled to. sink the vessels. in
these two cases. depends on the des-
case 1t was claimed that the cargo was
destined Immediately to the armed
forces Of the belligerent country. The
United States took the position that II
this were tie case. the cargo could
properly be destroyed but not the ves-
sci. The procedure. according to
have been to take vessel and cargo into
German port. unload and condemn
the cargo, and turn the vessel loose.
1t being impossible in the existing con-
ditions Of war to do this. the German
commander sank the vessel. but in do
Ing so. he obligated his government to
pay for the vessel
Reaffirms, Old Trial.
The treaty of 1923 has been invoked
by this Government in connection with
the Frye case: 1t Is equally applicable
to that Of the I.eelanaw. Article XII of
this treaty reaffirms articles Of pre-
vious treaties. and in effect declares
that. II either of the contracting par
ties be at war with a third party. the
rule Of contra band shall not be enforced
so as to cause loss to individuals. A
vessel Of one of the contracting nation
alities, carrying contraband to an
enemy Of the other party. may be held
up, and the cargo detained. but not
confiscated or destroyed. The owners
Of the cargo are even to be compensa-
ted for losses they may suffer by rea-
son of the detention: and II circum-
stances render seizure or destruction
necessary. the owners are to be COM
pensated at the basis Of the current
value Of the cargo at the port of desti-
nation.
In the Frye case 1t is claimed this
treatv was violated: and the Leelanaw
case amounts to an exactly similar
violation at a time when the Frye case
was under discussion. In any event
there Is little doubt that the treaty will
compel Germany to pay for the vessels.
and perhaps for the cargo.

WOULD ORGANIZE
 GUN CLUB

h compliance with request from several enthusiasts of the gun and rod, there will be an inform sl meeting held at Keller Bros. Curio store Friday evening for the purpose of organizing Q spOrtmen's club.
 Provided the organization of a gun club is perfected, 2 trap field will be located on the river bank at :e and semi-weekly trap shoots held.
 It Is believed that the White Pass Road will place a hunting and fishins rate in effect during the sumTer months, probably begin ming with the first of June, and the fact of there being a hunting and fishing club would probably be come incentive for the company to make a lower rate than that ef- fectiYe last year.
 With the organization of a gun club and a little practice on the part Of the members over the traps, a "defy" could be sent to the Whitehorse Gun club, as well as the Gun club at the garrison at Ft. Seward, resulting in some lively times during the stagnant dog days"
 All those interested in hunting and fishing are cordially invited to be present at the preliminary meet ing to be held Friday night, May the Sth, at 8 o'clock
