(From The Spectator) as
1t is possible for a person to be

Bob, "You remind me of a great, big
awkward, hulking-walrus," to Rail

CASE OF HERMAN VESSELS,
 HELD AS A GERMAN SPY

New York. Feb. 13.-Arguments on the writ of haDeas corpus applied for by Herman Vessels, alias Carl Roedi- ger, who is being held for naval court martial as a German spy, were heard today before United States Judge Manton in the Brooklyn federal court The court withheld decision and asked that briefs be filed by both sides by next Friday. Vessels was formerly second officer on the then German liner Imperator.
 Attorneys for Vessels maintained that the courtmartial could have no Jurisdiction over the case and that Vessels constitutional rights had been invaded. Assistant United States Attorney Buchner in combating these arguments, declared that as an alien enemy, Vessels could have no con stitutional rights.
 Vessels was first apprehended in January, 1918, when he claimed that he was connected with the firm of Richtner and Company, of this city, manufacturers of toy stone building blocks. He had passport from the Swiss government which naval au- thorities claim was forged. In May, 1918. Vessels was arrested by depart ment of justice agents and confined in the Tombs prison until January 30. of this year on technical charge of being an alien enemy. He was then turned over to the naval authorities and more serious charges preferred against him.
