As to the Prise Comrt. The prize ‘court is one of the labyrinth ldings making that historio land- known as the law courts, & massive weather-beaten gray stons, hous- courts of Dngland, with ' lowing instance in one of these prise cases: At & decisive stage of the Wilhemenn case the sollcitors for the crown made K {11111 i a8 £ i of solicitors and advocates, attorney general and the weneral, king’s counselors and | £ wigs and gowna, giving an ap- of deep solemnity. At the left of the judge sit two officers of the royal ‘merchant marine, In full uniform, known nautical experts. He consults them tly on any technical question of navigation or maval eonstruction arising in the cases. . Back of the lawyers are the American attorneys, in plain clothes ranks, leaning % counselors—all of them, bench and | the point that a neutra) ship oould be ' requisitioned by one of the belligerents. | This was laughed at by the attorneys for the American cwners, who had Article © of the prize law before them, and were Teudy to go Into court the next morning and laugh the crown sollcitors out of ‘court with their own law. ““The solicitors for the crown appear o have overlcoked,” they sald 'n the prize oourt next day, “‘that Article 39 of the brize law is specific against their con- tention.”" “That was quite true up to 9 o'clock Iast night,” came the quick reply from the crown solicitora. “But the claimants {appear to be unaware that at 9 o'clock last night ani order-in-council was signed- entirely changing that law." On Inquiry, this proved to be the case, | ® special order-in-council had been made ~not the wholesals order-in-council deal- ing with contraband, growing out of the war gone-which had never appeared in the officlal gazette and which is difficult |even now to learn much about, But it coach their British brethren, |fitted this particular case exactly, it et o 02| Plonty of Money, But Currency Is co Still _31; Discount (Correspondence of the Associated Press.)

Some Comparisons Made. Some of the British observers compare the area of German occupation with that of the allies in South Africa and ths va- cific islands. But the latter are tro wistes wcenfly taken over for coloniza- tlon, whereas Mr. Dmowski shows ihat | Poland s one of the most densely in- habited sections of HBurope, averaging thirty-five persons to the square xllo- meter, or more than the thickly populated ' istricts of France.
