London, 12th March
The First Lord of the Treasury. A, J. Balfour, in reply, said that the Governmont Coos hot question Spain's right in the master; but in rior of the fact that no privateers have been used in any war since 1866, even by the piwore: not neceding to tar declaration of Paris, and that the doctrius that a mantra fag corus un enemy's goods except contraband of war ans been generally sacepted during recent years, it may be doubted if Spain would actually resort to such measures
Regarding the latter part of Bowle question Balfour said that while fully admitting that the eventuality mentioned might have an important bearing upon the interests of mental constries, he did not think anything all be gained by an expression of opinion upon the part of the Government of any hypothetical cues This answer, Lowever, did not satisfy Mr. Bowles and has pressed Mr. Balfor for a more explicit raply, wherapen the First Lord of the Treasury said that expression of opinion at the, prosent moment might be inexpedicnt He had con alted with the Admiralty and his colleague on the subject, and believed he was correct in again saying that there had been a graezal acceptance by all power, though not a formal treat that a norton flag covers an enemy's goods exempt contraband of war
