WOULD BURN GERMAN CROPS BY DROPPING
 FIRE BALLS FROM RAIDiNG AER0PLANES

other, and without fences or hedges Similar conditions exist near the Rus sian frontier of Germany and in the plains of Hungary.
 "Fireballs dropped from airplanes would, if properly constructed, destroy thousands of acres. as the crops be come much drier than in England, and with little risk to the inhabitants, oth erwise non-combatants. as cottage and farm buildings among the fields are rare.
 "A suitable fireball could soon be devised and manufactured by our ex perts, but it is imperative, however that the necessary experiments and plans are made quickly as the Ger man harvests are earlier than our There is therefore. no time to be lost.
 Lord Calthorpe says that, as it has become a question as to which country starves first. Germany or England, il is important that the entente allies lose no time in hastening the destruct ion of the German crops.

century that property found in the United States at the outbreak of war with the country to which the owners of the property belonged was subject to confiscation, but that the exercise of this right was matter for the legis- lative department, and in the absence of an act of congress providing for such confiscation the property could not be judicially condemned, mere declaration of war not being sufficient for the purpose (Brown vs. U s., Cranch, 110)
 An alien enemy may be sued, but cannot be plaintiff in an action. A contract cannot be enforced against him. His property is subject to legal process, but he cannot subject the property of another to such process.
 He cannot foreclose a mortgage or create or enforce a mechanics lien, or even collect rent or eject non-paying tenant. But, in the absence of confis- catory legislation by congress, the property rights of an alien enemy are not extinguished; they are suspended during the existence of hostilities and revive upon the restoration of peace.

STATUS OF ALIEN ENEMIES

A German born. over If years of age, who has lived in this country all his life and who filed his declaration of in tention to become a citizen but has never perfected his naturalization, is an alien enemy. There are in the United States several hundred thou sand alien enemies"
 The law of nations prohibits all in- tercourse between citizens of two hos tile nations, which is inconsistent with the state of war existing between the two countries. This includes any act or contract which tends to increase the resources of the enemy, and every kind of trading or commercial dealing or intercourse, whether by the trans mission Of money or goods. or orders for the delivery of either, directly or indirectly, or through the intervention of third persons or partnerships, or by contracts in any form.

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, Feb. 6.-Yesterday's
big advance was followed by renew
ed nervousness and irregularity in
the cotton market early today. The
opening was at decline of A to IL
points under realizing inspired by
relative easy cables, but there was
buying by houses with foreign con-
nections and some further support
from trade interests. This caused
prompt rally to practically last
nights closing price, with May sell
ing up to 1899, offering then in
creased, however, following confirma-
ton of earlier reports that an Amer
lean had been killed in the sinking of
the Eavestone, with May breaking to
1916 under liquidation and local sell
ing. This carried the general list
about % to Is points net lower, but
the market was steadied by renewed
coverings and trade buying at the
decline.
The break extended to 15.40 for
May during the morning, with the
general list selling AZ to SO points net
lower. 1t looked as though some of
yesterdays buyers had lost their con-
fidence and few step orders were
uncovered on the decline. Business
then tapered off again and May rail-
lied to 1915, but the tone was very
nervous and disturbing rumors as to
international affairs cause great ir-
regularity during the middle of the
day.
The early afternoon rally carried
May up to Is IS, but was not fully
maintained with the market very
quiet around 2 o'clock and about rs
to 30 points net lower.
Cotton closed steady.
