120 cargoes or portion of cargoes, should make enquiries in London at the Offices of His Majesty’s Procurator- General, Treasury Chambers, Whitehall, and in the case of the outports of the United Kingdom, at the Offices of the agents for His Majesty’s Procurator- General, whose addresses ean he obtained from the Collectors of Customs at such outports, „His Majesty’s Procurator-General will require proof of ownership and particulars as to freight, whether paid or unpaid.“ In cases where the title of British Subjects or of persons domiciled in allied or neutral States, or of friendly aliens domiciled in this country, who are interested in such cargoes, is clear and estabh'shed without doubt to the satisfaction of the Procurator- General, such cargoes or portions of cargoes will he released with as little delay as possible, provided that no question of contraband arises, and Subject to the adjustment of any matters relating to freight or other charges falling on the cargo. In more doubtful cases recourse to the ordinary Prize Court procedure will be necessary. It will in most cases be convenient that Ihe parties should communicate with the agent of the Procurator-General at the port where the ship is, rather tban with the Procurator-General himself. Duo notice will be given of the Institution of proceedings in cases in whicli vessels are in the custody of the Prize Courts in the United Kingdom. Vessels which have been detained in or brought into British ports outside the United Kingdom will be brought befere the Prize Courts established in His Majesty’s dominions overseas, and interested parties should take steps to have their Interests represented before those Courts. It is hoped that arrangements may shortly be made for the Publication of similar notice in respect of proceedings in those Prize Courts. His Majesty’s Government are endeavouring to obtain from the Governments of France, Russia, and Japan lists of merchant vessels which may be similarly detained or captured by (he armed forces of those States. All such Information as soon as received will be published in the same way. A separate notification is being published as regards German vessels detained in Belgian ports on the outbreak of hostilities. All the Information in the possession of His Ma jesty’s Government will in this way he made public, and it is hoped that the necessity of applying to Government Departments for Information in particular cases will be eliminated. Statement appearing in the Press, Friday, November 27th, 1914. A Committee has been appointed by His Majesty’s Government to receive and consider Claims made by British Allied or Neutral Third Parties against Ships or Cargoes which have been condemned, or detained by Order of Prize Courts, and to recominend to wbat extent in wliat manner and on wbat terms such olaims should be met or provided for out of the prize funds. The only Claims which the Committee are autho- rised to consider are Claims against ships and cargoes on which sentence has heen passed by the Prize Courts. Any graut made in respect of them will be made as of grace and ont of the bounty of the Crown. Any person desiring to submit Claims for the consideration of the Committee should forward them to the Secretary, Prize Claims Committee, at the Board of Trade. Announcements will be made in the press as to the latest date on which Claims against particular ships and cargoes should ho made. Auf Grund einer neuerlichen Erklärung der briti schen Regierung Wird zur öffentlichen Kenntnis gebracht: Nach der Rechtsprechung britischer Prisengerichte werden vor ihnen feindliche Ausländer zur Wahrung ihrer Rechte zugelassen, wenn sie sich dabei auf eines der Haager Abkommen von 1907 berufen können. Das britische Prisengericht in Alexandrien hat auch die Klagen feindlicher Ausländer angenommen, die auf Verträge über den Suezkanal oder auf die besonderen Beziehungen Großbritanniens zuÄghpten gestützt wurden. sFrankfurter Zeitung vom 16./4. 1915.) Notification by bl. IVl.'s Oovernrnent as to Enemy Ships in The Suez Canal. His Majesty’s Government have issued a notifi cation in the following terms to the Representatives of Foreign Maritime Powers in London, and have asked them to communicate itto their Governments: — Lines the outbreak of war certain ships of enemy countries have remained in the Suez Canal. Lome of these vessels were detained by the Egyptian Government on account of hostile acts com- mitted in the Canal; some because there was reason to apprehend that they contemplated hostile acts; others, thongh perfectly free, have refused to leave the Canal in spite of the oster of a free pass, thus disclosing their Intention to use the ports of the Canal merely as ports of refuge, a measure which is not contemplated by the Suez Canal Convention. His Majesty’s Government do not admit that the conventional right of free acoess to and use of the Canal, enjoyed by merchant vessels implies any right to make use of the Canal and its ports of access for an indefinite time to escape capture, since the obvious result of permitting any such course must be greatly to incommode and even to block the use of the ports and Canal by other ships, and they are consequently of opinion that the Egyptian Government are fully justified in the steps which they are taking to remove from the Canal all enemy ships which have been long enough in the Canal ports to show clearly that they have no Intention of departing in the ordinary way, and that they are putting the Canal and its ports to
