For the plain- tiffs it was said that it was not established that the beef was sold to the Russian Government. This question had been left in the most unsatisfactory state.

His Lordship did not know the precise distance between San Fran- cisco and Vladivostock, but it was very considerable. It was anticipated that if this cargo was sent forward it would almost certainly be captured by the Japanese. Was it possible to say in these
