the necessity of guarding military se- crets under discussion.
 Senators Martin. Lee of Maryland and Smith and Hardwick of Georgia. spoke in opposition to the federal volunteer plan.
 Senator Smith urged his amend ment for short enlistments in the reg ular army with at least 96 hours each month devoted to educational lnstruc- tion Senator Hardwick wanted to substitute his amendment to provide for military instruction in schools and colleges which iie said would insure a reserve of 100000 young men with military training.
 Senator Williams urged that the amendments offered by the two sena- tors from Georgia need not conflict with the volunteer army plan. which he advocated. He suggested that each state university should be turned into a branch of the West Point acad- emy.
 Senator Works spoke in favor of the federal volunteer system and praised the bill as the best piece of military legislation ever put before the senate. Senator Brandegee of Connection. also made an urgent plea for the vol unteer army. At the close of the day Senator Chamberlain again warned the senate that he would ask for night sessions unless more rapid progress is made in the near future.

To this Capt. Alex ander took exception and then de- murred to the ruling of the court. The objections and demurrer were en- tered on the court records. One of the reasons for Gulleys counsel ob- iecting was that the charges had not been properly signed by the command ing officer Donkersley stated that it did not make any difference who signed the charges, that the court was convened to try Gulley, and that legal technicalities were to be dis pensed with. A demurrer to the over ruling of the first demurrer was of fered.
 After that Gulley was allowed to plead not guilty to each count.
 The court then attacked Zimmer- mans right to act as assistant coun-

concerning the parcel post.
 "The sending of any merchandise by parcel post is way of shipping and transportation similar to shipping and transportation by means of ship ping bills or bills of lading with the difference that this transportation is undertaken by postal service.
 "Such parcels can under no con- sideration be considered as letters, 'correspondences, or dispatches and it is clear that nothing can save them from the exercise of rights of police control. visit and search which be- long to the belligerents on the high seas in regard to all cargoes.'
 Among other numerous examples 1t will be sufficient to quote one. together 37.51O kilograms of rubber for Hamburg steamers Tijuca, Bahia. Jaguaribe. Mararhao. Acre Linda, Para and Brazil or. again, 69 parcels containing 100 revolvers for Germany via Amsterdam (steamer Gelria).
 Concerning the shipping of letters. folders, envelopes or others, entrusted to the postal service as commonly posted in the postal bags of the pos tai administration of the countries from which the shipping is made, the allied governments called the atten- tion of the neutral governments to the following considerations:
 From December 31. 1914 to Decem- Der 31, 1915, the German or Austrian Hungarian naval authorities have de- stroyed without warning or previous inspection, thirteen mail boats with the postal bags on board coming from or going to neutral or allied cOun- tries without caring for the invioli- ability of the dispatches and corre spondence which they contained any more than for the offensive persons on board these steamers.
 Tt is not within the knowledge of the allies governments that any pro- testation concerning postal correspon dence ever has been addressed to the imperial governments.

Germania (Swedish) had their mail sacks of all places of origin and des- tination seized on board by the Ger man naval authorities; the letters and correspondence were censored by the German military authorities as is shown by the photograph herewith an nexed as a sample.
 'The allied governments are of the opinion that later on the imperial German government. while announcing it's intention no longer to practice these seizures has declared that these seizures were and would be perfectly justified in it's eyes. According to the imperial German government, convention No. II of The Hague treaty 1907, not having been ratified by all the present belligerent powers. would be without application.
 Finally more recently. the control over the territory of the allies of var ious postal sacks, loaded upon pack boats which made stops at certain ports of the said territory, has re- vealed the presence in the wrappers. envelopes and postal shipments of ar ticles of contraband particularly sought by the enemy.
