defence that there had been concealment of the fact that the beef in question was sold to the Government of Russia, in view of the war or anticipated war, for the provisioning of troops. 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.

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
