Liability for Loss"of Ships. An agreement has been dan, cluded between the Government` | Department concerned and mar- ins underwriters by which, "subject to the approval sẽ the

shipowner, the apportionment of loss as between, the war, and marine risk policies shall, in the case of vessals which become missing, and are posted as missi 'at Lloyd's, be determined

arbitration. The agreement provides that the various suthorities and parties interested in the war and marine insuraÜÇƏS shall agree that the Icss shallbu divided between them in? ruch proportions as seems just to the. arbitrator. Not only are delay and expense-involved in taking doubtful cases into Court, butɔthe Court has itself, been unable in some instances to come to an absolute decision. According to the agreement the award of the arbitrator shall be considered final and binding on all parties ss to all questions of law "süd. fact, unless the majority is valte of one or other of the two sets of insurers, before the expiration. either of six months: after the conclusion of peace betreEN Great Britain and the radious Powers with which she is at war, or of six months after the making of the award give notice of objection to the award to the o'her set of insurers." In that event the matter is again to.ba referred to one of the arbitrators to be selected by the Government, and at the hearing either, «et of insurers, shall; be able to adduce

fresh evidence, subject to the permission of the arbitrator or to the imp-sition of such terms as he may think just. No application to vary an award shall’bè enter- tained by the arbitrator unless, in his opinion, material evidence is adduced which was zote before the arbitrator on the occasion of the first award. In a letter to the institute of London Underwriters, the Shipping Controllerstates that he has been engaged in prolonged negotiations with the Admiralty with a VIEW to finding a procedure which would safeguard the rights of the parties and enable the scheme of arbitration to be put into operat- ion. As a result, a clause has been agreed upon between the Depa'tments concerned, respect- ing the disclosure of information by the Admiralty, which reads as follows (1) Subject to sub-
