 Most officials regarded the matter as unworthy of comment. Those ex- pressing their views declared the Am sterdam dispatch meant little, as Ger many, by the sinking of IS vessels, some of which flew neutral flags, on this s'de of the Atlantic, practically issued a warning to neutrals that their flags would be no more respect cd in waters off the American coast than in the barred zone around Eu- rope.
 Should the intimated warning" prove to be a formal announcement of the extension of the policy of ruthlessness to American waters, off, cials declared the navy was prepared to cope with Germany's under water craft and no change of the present plans would be necessary.
 Officials also pointed out that the European neutrals are dependent on America for food to such an extent that issuance of a warning by Ger many probably would in no way af- feet trade conditions.

 The history of Pezricak is somewhat complicated. In the first place he is Russian and therefore an alien but some time ago he waived his alien rights and was placed in Class 5 by the Draft Board.
 He was arrested about a week ago for assaulting his landlady in a most brutal fashion ana was fined in the city court. He was re-arrested upon leaving the court and held for the federal authorities for evading the draft. Then it was discovered he had been placed in Class Al, and he was ordered to proceed to camp this morning.
 In the meantime friends of the prisoner got together and collected funds to retain lawyer and the lat ter succeeded in securing a writ of habeus corpus, restraining the mili- tary authorities from taking the per son of William Pezricak from the jurisdiction of the Bridgeport courts.
 The court ordered Pezricak held until next Tuesday when his case will come up for trial, but in the mean. I1IIlG lLS oIulllOI1I4So oAl S ouI . he is not under the Jurisdiction of the civil courts and is only answera- ble to a court martial.
 There is no doubt, but that the tangled question will be strengthened out, but in the meantime it is looked upon as being a test case and if the civil courts show they have precedence of military courts in districts not un- der martial law, a great number o1 similar cases are bound to arise.
 In speaking of the matter today Assistant Superintendent of Police Charles H. Suckley said: Personally I am of the opinion that when the man has been assigned to his training camp and ordered by the local draft boards to report at a certain time, he is under military Jurisdiction; on the other hand if he is at the present time subject to military law, I hardly think that a writ of habeus corpus would be granted to his counsel.
 As the matter now stands it il thought that 1t will have to be take1 up with the authorities in Washing ton and until the latter have beer heard from Pezrtcak will be held fol the local court until next Tuesday.
