Although speaking Chinese fluer.tly himself. he was so sur- prised at the sentence that he did not believe his ears, until the fact that he was sentenced to three years' imprisonment was confirmed by the court interpreter.

Meden was acquitted by Judge Rapex in the Italian Consular Court on a charge of selling arms and ammunition, The defence counsel at Meden's trial, at which Elliott was brought as a witness, contended that Meden had allegedly been framed by a German named Franz Rosenberg, who had planted the guns in his room Meden not knowing how to get rid of them had decided to sell them, was the contention.

BLENHEIM CASE
SETTLED: AGA KHAN
TO PAY £1500
A settlement of the claim against the Aga Khan arising from the sale of his famous Derby winner. Blenheim, was announced before Mr. Justice Horridge in the King's Bench Divison recently sta- tes the "Evening Standard.”
The plaintiffs, Mr. Raymond' Michell Dale and Mr. Willam. Dal- alel, of Rudgwick, near Horsham, Sussex, in partnership as breeders and buyers and sellers of blood- stock, clained £4500 commission alleged to be due for introducing an American syndicate to who "Blenheim was sold for £45,000 on July 7, after Mahmond (son of Blenheim) had won this, year's Derby,
It was stated that the Aga Khan had agreed to pay the plaintiffs
£1500 and cost.

The general impression here is that the speech was very carefully worded, almost too diplomatically phrased, but hardly strong or vigorous enough in content to justify the term "leader ship." The loudspeaker blare of German speeches has dulled German ears to the finer points of British parliamentary language. All writers, however, agree that a little progress has been registered.
Khan, announcing the settlement, said the suggestion that, there had been a trick was, based on a ̈mis- apprehension arising from a-let- ter, and was now unreservedly withdrawn.
The letter was written to Mr. Dale by the Aga Khan on May 4, and a copy was kept in the hand- writing of the Aga Khan's secre- tary.
In the original it was stated that Mr. Dale and Mr. Dalziel had until the end of the summer to effect the deal. The Aga Khan imagined that it was only until the begin- ning of the summer, the reason. being that in the copy which was kept the words "imtil the end of the summer" had been accidentally, ómitted.
