IPPROVESIUCR S AT SA U. S. Supreme Court Refuses to Interfere With Rulings of Lower Tribunals.: By the Assoclated Press. The Supreme Court has refused to interfere with the seizure by the Gov- ernment of foreign ships carrying liquor sighted within territorial waters and found to be without manifests show- ing their destinations to be the United States. The decision of the lower Fed- eral courts in several cases were thns permitted to stand. Three of these arose in New York from the seizure of two schooners, the Mistinguette, under the French flag, and the Rosie M. B, under the British flag, and the seizure of a British schooner, Vinces, off Charleston, S. C. The Mistinguette was seized four and a half miles off Long Island with a cargo of liquor valued at $18,000, the Rosie M. B. 11 miles off Long Island with a small cargo of malt and malt liquor, while the Vinces ha daboard liquor valued at about $73,000. ‘The Government contended in the trial of these cases and was supported by the trial courts that the schooners had been sighted within territorial waters and pursued to sea. Notwith- standing vigorous protests of the for- eign captains that they had cleared from Migquelon and Nova Scotia for Nassau, British West Indies, and their challenge of United States jurisdiction beyond the three-mile limit when there was no evidence that they had estab- lished contact with the shore, the trial courts declared that the presence of the liquos-laden foreign ships within the territorial waters warranted the conclusion that the cargoes were to be landed on our shores. The declaration of the lower courts that under such circumstances foreign ships could be seized when unable to ‘produce manifests showing that their cargo was destined for the United States seemingly met the approval of the Supreme Court because in each ~case it refused a review. The action left effective the decisions of the lower courts, enabling the Government to seize and condemn all foreign ships hovering along the ' coastline within territorial waters when they have no manifest for a lan in the United States, even though captains are able to show .that they cleared for ports i nother countries.
