The British specialized in the list
of those naval officers who violated
the laws of the war. For instance,
in their list the following names APP
pear:
Lieut. Captain Kiesewetter - For
sinking the hospital ship Glenart Cas-

Lieut.-Captan alentiner - For
torpedoing two merchant vessels

May, 1916.
Commander Booker - For bonn
harding Hull in March and Edin-
burgh III April, 1916, from an air
ship.
The German government avoided
taking any action in the matter as
long as possible Finally, it present
ed a reply to the Allies in which it
set forth the view that to arrest the
men named and attempt to hand
them over to the Allies would be to
precipitate grave events in Germany.

subjects before the Germon high
courts, provided the Allied govern
ments prepared prima facie cases
against them, showing that prosecu-
ton was justifiable. This view of
the German government finally pre-
vailed
The British prepared seven cases
in full. These were the cases against
Heynen, Muller, Trinke and New
mann, charged with acts of cruelty to
prisoners Of war at various camps,
and the following naval cases:
Lieut.. Commander Patzig-Charg-
ed with having sunk without warn
ing the hospital ship Llanedver Cas-

lives.
Lieut.. Commander Neumann -

warning the British hospital ship,
Dover Castle, with the loss of SIX

Charged with having sunk the Brit
ish steamship Tonington and then
drowning the entire crew, with the
exception Of the captain, by submerg-

lined up as prisoners Or the deck
of the submarine.
In the House of Commons recent
ly, in reply to questions, the ottor-
ney general, Sir Gordon Hewart, said
the seven cases which the government
had prepared did not begin to ex-
haust its list. They were merely
seven selected test cases.
