NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Seafaring bootleggers soon will have to take a course in admiralty law if they are to keep up wiht the latest contention of revenue officers-that the three mile limit does not hold where liquor smugglers are involved.
 This stand was taken by United States Attorney Hayward today when the government filed three iibels against the schooner Henry r. Marshall and her 1f00 cases of whis- key after she had been seized out side the three-mile limit off Atlantic City, N. J.. with the British flag at her masthead.
 Colonel Hayward invoked the mar itime act of 1799, setting a Emile limit off shore as the boundary which ships could not pass if engaged in fraudulent pursuits

For Irishmen to say to the world that they cannot be satisfied with the status of the great British dominions would be to alien ate all that sympathy which has so far been the main support of the Irish cause. Such an offer by the British prime minister, who unlike his predecessors. is in a position to deliver the goods. is an event of unique importance. It is far more than was offered to the Transvaal and the Free States. who fought for free dom in one of the greatest wars in the history of Great Britain, and one which reduced their own countries to ashes and their little peoples to ruins.
 If you accept you will become a sister dominion in the great circle of states, which will stand beside you and shield you and protect your rights, and any questions that you and the British government may have will be for the imperial conference to decide. This is the natural and con- stitutional practice of dominion free dom'

"All right" he replied in a low voice.
