CodificatiOn Urged.
There should be a codification of the
president of the society, told the con-
vention yesterday. Not necessarily in
its every detail. but of the principles
which are to be passed upon and applied
IN judicial decisions which may be
rendered in controversies between states
penalties cannot we'll attach to law
which is not itself clearly stated And
sanctions of whatever kind will not at
tach to the law of nations until it is
set forth in definite, albeit general,
terms.
When this is done there will be
law Of nations universal in effect and
in application through its equal and
unqualified recognition by all nations,
with appropriate remedies for violations,
beginning in national courts, continuing
If necessary through diplomatic discus
sion and good Offices, to terminate in
the greatest of international institu

Prof Charles Cheney Hyde OF Co.

colt as a Sanction of International Law.
Speaking of the necessity for establish
ment of a violation by an offending
state of international law before some
impartial arbitral tribunal, he said:
Until it is established in some i'm
partial and convincing way, as by re-
course to an arbtral tribunal. the in
tering states can hardly claim to be
indicators of the law This is true
when. acting upon their bare indictment
of neighbor they unleash the boycott
against 1t. If their conclusion is wrong
the action amounts to sheer law,essness.
If it is right. they are not unlike the
mob that lynches the murderer within
is grip.

OWNS
BOOM TOWN

RHYOLITE, New. G.N.S).-The
next best thing to being king OF a
desert island with buried treasure
has probably happened to D. M.
Finley, unassuming New York
mining engineer. Finley virtually
owns an entire mining city with
untold wealth under his feet.
With his wife Finley came here
in 1890 on a mid-depression Jaunt,
and became impressed with what
he found. Rhyolite was a thrlV-
ing boom camp in 1907-08 and the
ground was hardly scratched when
it came to taking out the gold ore
that had faulted and was lost to
the hurry-up boom operators.
Mr.. and Mrs. Finley stuck, es-
tablished their home in the luxu-
Tious and elaborate m ar b e
trimmed depot, one of the few re-
naming buildings in the town,
and started to work.
Water was Finley's first prob
lem. He constructed a seven-mile
line into the old camp, and with
water on tap he started explora-
ton of II claims leased from the
Amargosa Consolidated Gold Min
ing Company.
Rhyolite now has taken new
lease on life, the GHOSTS" have
vanished and the population has
grown to almost 100, most Of
whom are employees of Finley.

S600,000T TRUST
HELD INVALID

TRENTON.-Re reversing vice e
Chancellor Buchanan. the Court
of Errors and Appeals has set
aside a will by which John j. Al
bertson of Magnolia. Camden
county, undertook to create a trust
fund Of approximately 100000 to
be expended in aiding "all young
people"
Under the will Mr.. Albertson's
wife and children were cut off
with a mere pittance. They will
now share in the estate.
One Of the grounds for setting
aside the will was that it violated
the rule against establishing per-
petuities, and therefore was con-
trary to public policy. Mr.. Albert
son selected six young children as
immediate beneficiaries for the
trust fund and provided that upon
the death Of the last child cor
poration should be formed to
carry out the purposes of the trust
fund.
