represented, "and the other will almost certainly fall into line. The South African and Russo-Japaneso wars reveiled serious differences on any important questions connected with naval warfare, and this Declamation will go far to remove such dificulties. It is satisfactory to know that in most cases the British practice, as laid down, in our Admiralty manual, has bean embodied in this international instru-
mout. The importance of the Decintation is not due so much to any advances or in- novations on the rules as to the fact that dow for the first time these rules are, definitely psportained and formulated. The` Declaration, indeed, codifics, the disporsed and largely undefined law on this subject. Perhaps the most interesting provisions are those which relate to contraland of wat. The British practice already recog rised a distinction between absolute and conditional contraband. This principle,} bas now been carried further and reduced to more precise definition. Articles 20, 24, 28 enumerate respoc- tively a list of things which are absolute |contraband, conditions) contesbaud, and i
entirely exempt. The second class includes those which, to employ the technical term, ́are usus ancipitís, that is, "susceptible of use in war as well as for purposes of peace." Among these the most important are food. sto.to.
