3 casos due for judgment and Mr.: Van den Berg aaked Judge Kuh of what he proposed doing, where- upon the latter replied that all 2 cases in which the Senior Consul's Deputy was concerned would-be remanded. Indeed, all the Chinese charge sheets had thus bean mark- od before the Court sat.

Judge Kuh then made the follow- ing announcemont:
"Owing to the fact that no reply has yet been received to the threa demands presented to the Senior Consul by the Commissioner of Foreign Affairs in connexion with 2 our negotiations, I am again adjourning all cases in which the Sonlor Consul's Deputy Is concern ed pending a reply. I am sitting to-day in accordanco with instruc- tlons from the President of this Court."
