PAGE SIX.“ GEAMANY MUST PAY FOR CANAL INCIDENT, ULE ritish Claim Over Kiel Blockade in 1921 Is Upheld by Court. THE HAGUE, Aug. 17.—(By The Associated Press}—The permanent court of, international justice today handed down a decision against Ger- many in the case involving the use of the Kiel canal by fqreign vessels. he court decided the German author- ities were not justified in preventing the British steamer Wimbledom from entering the canal in 1921 during the Yostilities between Poland and Rus- sl, and that Germany would make compensation. The Wimbledon case is the first in which the world court was asked for a definite judgment. It grew out of the refusal of Germany to allow the Wimbledon chartered by a French company and loaded with munitions consigned to Poland, to pass through the Kiel Canal, Germany declared that to do so would violate her own regu- lations regarding neutrality. The treaty of Versailles provided that the Kiel canal shall be open to the war and merchant vessels of all nations at peace with Germany. The Berlin government, despite various protests, maintained its position but invited the allied nations to take the ease before the tribunal provided by the treaty of Versailles, the perman- ent court of international justice. ‘The judgment rendered today says the German government is bound to make good the loss sustained by the vessel and her charterers as a result of Germany's action, and fixes the damages at 140,749 francs with inter- est at the rate of six per cent per annum, reckoned from the date of the judgment. The amount is to be pai@ to the French government in Francs within three months from to- @ay. Each party to the suit stands ita own costs. THREE GUNS FOUND ON WALKING ARSENAL NOW HELD IN ITY BASTILE ! wimer Washington, colored, const!- tuted a smal! sized armory last night ‘when he was arrested by members of the police force because he was drunk. When a search was made of his elothes the officers found that he had three revolvers on his person. Remembering the fact that the Cas- per Exchange Furniture store had fust been broken into the night previ- ous and that a number of such guns had been taken from it, the arresting officers concluded they would quiz thelr man.
