Gale, 13th May,-* with Sir Frank Laucalles at the British Em bassy at Berlin, he remarked to the younger members of the stuff, ilave any of you Mr. Harold Macfarlane, in the May number of the "World's Work." says that "in all pro

that he was not ready to greet his royal guest | when he stepped on to the ternitroy of Great For many years the sovereign had 'refrained

It appears that on the mom- from making the acquaintance of the lluita bilg of Britala to be found in every Europeaning of the day following Sipido's attack upon capital; and only at rare intervals had a Con- the King (then Prince of Wales) at Brussels, tinental monarch stepped on that portion of the Kaiser without formality hastened to his dominion that is situated in the West and

the Embassy to offer his congratulaitons upon hila uncle's excape, an hour that was entirely of London. King Edward," however, has revived the custom of exchanging visits with unexpected by the officials at the Embassy,

with the aforementioned result. his fellow monarchs, and they, in turn, have made themselves familiar with tha e protiona of their respective territories that are bounded by, the streets of the Metropolis. When in Vicona recently King Edward gave a lunchson of the Embassy to the Emperor Francis Joseph, he began his speech, when porposing the health of the august guest, with the wards :. - "As we are upon British sull," a statement that'

supplies the very keynote of the Ambassadorial

position. The privileges that an am. bassador enjoys when on duty are manifold p at home he may be untitled and a comparative nobody, but in the capital he is accredited to he enjoys all the prerogatives of an Emperor or a President. That an ambassador is exempt from taxes goes without saying, for he is exempt from all cash payments in the sente that the same cannot be enforced by law. That he pays his bills and his rates which, ́unlike taxes, are applied for is simply an act of grace on the part of an ambassador and his suite." it was in Queen Anno's reign that a special Act of Parliament was passed to make ambassadors immune from arrest for debi in order, to soothe the savage breast of Pater the Great, whose ambassador was arrested one day and removed from his coach on account of a little matter of £50. Because ambassa-

dors are punctilious about paying their privile....... ge must not be forgotten.

"That the law or etiquette on the subject is decidedly intricate was proved by the fact that when a delegate of the Portuguese Govern ment struck one of the employees in the Portuguese Colonial Pavilion' at the Paris Exhibition of 1900 the Court rejected his plea that the assault took place in what was technically Portuguere territory, and therefore beyond French jurisdiction, and he was called upon to pay a fine and dimages. Although there may be some lingering uncertainty about ambassadorial, etiquette with regard to enya! courts there certainly is.none in respect to po. lice courte, to which ambusadors cannot be ̧taken against their will either as criminals' or witnesses. The United States authorities dis- covered this fact as long ago a1 1836, when the Dutch Minister's presence as a witness in a case, tried at Washington being desired, he de clined to attend the Court, and was backed up in his decision by the Government of Holland, to whom the American Government appealed. History, it will be remembered, repeated itself In 1898, when in the course of the Zala tral, a] side issue of the Dreyfus affair, the military 'attaches' of the German, Austro-Hungarian, and Spanish Embassies refused to renounce their diplomatic immunity, until they had re- ferred their positions to their respective govern ments. Although this custom, is generally known it occasionally happens that a to zeal. Dus constable bears off to durance vile a mem ber of an ambassador's suite, and la promptly. called over the coals by those who are not ignorant of the fact that the immunity of the ambassador extends to his household.

OTHER POINTS.

"With regard to "exterritorialky," Mr. Macfarlane saya cases are infrequent, but in 1898 and 1900 two such engaged public atten- ilon for a short time. In the cariler of these diplomatic incidents the 'dramatis personae in- cluded Mr. Spencer Eddy, one of the Secretaries to the American Ambass dur, and Mr. J. E. White, son of Mr. Henry White, of the American Embassy. These two gentlemen had the temerity to ride their bicycles on the footpath in the vicinity of Winkfield, Berks, and although they had in all probability every excuse for doing so by the state of the roads, they were duly summoned by a ino zealous Constable. Metaphorically wrapping them. salves in the Stars and Stripes, the diplomatists claimed "exterritoriality, with the result that after an appeal to the Home Secretary the Maidenhead magistrates had no alteros- tive but to withdraw the summons, whereupon peace again raigned between the United King dom and the United States. The second of the two cases, which came before the magis trate at Maidenhead magistrates had no alterna. tive hardly so satisfactory. A footman was found lying outside a public house, and being unable to give any account of himself was promptly taken in custody. When his case was called, however, the prisoner claimed the privilege of international law, stating that he was the servant of the Swedish Ambassador.

And as proof was forthcoming in support of his claim, the magistrate was obliged to allow him to return dnfined to that portion of Sweden that lies in Pont Street, W.

"Although it is customary for the diplomatic gents to furnish the authorities to which they ire accredited with lists of their employees in order that undue advantage should not be taken fthe custom of immunity, the privilege has its isadvantages, as was proved some years ago
