That Judges Hansen and Jamieson have gone thoroughly into the case, and if the question be appealed to the Court at Home, there can be no doubt as to the fulness of the argameals set out,
That what strikes me as the weak point in the one-sided Japaness argument is the assumption of the snoredases of the Im- parial person and his stemption from liability,
That if the sortion of this doctrine bad bean accompanied by an admission that Admiral This or Secretary That would defend the case og behalf of the Govern-
ment or the Admiralty, one would have boca better able to recognise its fairness. That I fancy rather too much of the element of diplomatic assumption has been brought into this sase, and the Treaty Revizion diecossion we almasat dragged into Court by the Japanese. That of course the decision of H. B.M. Court in Shanghai increases in importance in no cordance with tho amount of eeroi-diplo- matic matter introduced into the argument by the Europeas advisers of the Japanese
Government.
That the notice of appeal has act, su far llbear, bean given, and the bearing of couter-cial at Yokohama has not been advised.
