Attorney General e. B. Cox for the
dismissal Of the appeal of the Hughes

MADE KNOWN
Dutch Government Wants to
Share in Tonnage Accord
ing to Treaty

The Hague, March 1.-THE Dutch
foreign minister, Dr. LOudon, in the
second chamber today made the fol-
lowing statement with regard to the
Anglo.American demand with respect
to Dutch shipping:
"The German government, having
declared its inability to furnish lOO,'
900 tons of wheat in two months, the
Dutch government makes its consent
conditional. Following are the con.
ditions: ..
Holland ought to be able to count
on sharing the tonnage provisioning
the different countries, in accordance
with the draft agreement OF London.
Bunker coal necessary for the trans
port of merchandise to Holland ought
to be furnished to Dutch ships. The
allied governments should guarantee
that no troops or war materials will
be transported on the ships, which
should be unarmed; that the crews
should remain free to participate in
navigation, and that vessels destroyed
are eventually to be replaced by 9TH
ers imediately after the war"
The minister added that the gov
ernment was unable to get further
than this.

LAW ATTACKED.
jamestown Man Questions Con.
stitutiOnality of Act in
Supreme Court

The constitutionality OF the North
Dakota boot.legging statute of 1916
is tested for the first time in ha.
beas corpus proceeding argued in su-
preme court Monday, when Attorney
John A. Jorgenson of Jamestown de-
manded a writ for the release Of his
client, Herb Germaine, arrested some
time ago on bootlegging charge and
now held in the Stutsman county jail.
JorgensOn contended that the act Is
unconstitutional; in that it holds the
agent. who simply makes the purchase
from one party for another party, In
stead Of attacking the principal, the
man who sells the liquor or the one
who buys it. The supreme courts de.
cision will affect many actions now
pending in various parts of the state
and is awaited with an unusual de-
gree of interest.
