the real motivo of the defendant's conduct was that he was a regular trader to Japan and was afraid of getting into trouble with: the Japanese authorities. As le well known, the Japanese Government very proparly taptrict mensures to prevent the emigra tion of females for amoral purposes. Being therefore unable to bring them away openly the procurere use their ingenuity in getting them on board steamore as stowaways, there by causing considerable trouble and incon" venience to shipmasters and agents. In Cap tain Inves's conduct in the case in question there was an obvious absence of any eriminal intent, but he made a mistake which under the circumstances was, we think, properly visited with more than a nominal penalty. The stowaways could and ought to have been prosecuted at the Police Court, instead of being illegally detained on board pending reference to the Japanese Consul, as though that officer were vested with extraterritorial jurisdiction in the matter.
