If Dr. 'Wti.bON had his way Wooimow
Wilson would be relieved Immediate
ly of ofllclal duties nnd released to
the enjoyment of his la.s in the wel

In these circumstances It is strange
thnt Dr. Wilson dors not use the In

hnve Willi President Wilson to end
tho sufferings that weigh so heavily
on Woodrow Wilson, sufferings that j
hnve Induced him seriously to con
sider tho ndv!-nblllty of resorting to

Wilson rcpo-es In Dr. Wil-on, coin

would It be inappropriate for Con
gress to give thought now to the In
terests of tho United States?
The Case nf the Appani.
In considering on February U the
case of the ltrltlsh liner Appam,
which was brought Into Norfolk by
Lieutenant Hlro of the German naVy
nfter her enpture by the auxiliary
cruiser Moewe off the coast of Africa
on .Innuary 10, Tub Sun contended
that tho German Government could
not Invoke Article XIX. of our treaty
with Prusln, revived In lS-f. to as
sure an Indeilnlte stay for the Appam
Vort of tho United States. Artl
cle XIX. provided that "the vessels
of war, public nnd private, of both
parties, shall carry freely, whereso
ever they please, the vessels nnd ef
fects taken from their enemies," mny
enter the ports of the "other party"
without paying duties or being put
under lege' process, nnd mny be freely
carried out ngaln "at any time by
their captors to the plnces expresl
in their commissions." Titr. Sr.N snlil
at the time:
"It would seem to ho difficult to make
hs agreement fl: the case of the Appam,
which did not come Into port vUth an-
other tes.vl ns a prize. Moreover, the
article Implies a departure at some tlmo
or other to a place expressed In the
commission. It was neter frimed to
cover such an adventure ns that of tho
Appam."
On March 2 Secretary Lansinc
mndo his decision in n letter to the
Herman Ambassador at Washington,
which Is only now published because
It has been Introduced In evidence In
n suit by the original lirltKh owners
to havo tho Appam restored to them.
In his letter to Count von IIkhnstokit
Secretary La.nsinii says:
"Ity n reasonable interpretation of
Article .IX. It seems clear that It Is
applicable only to prizes which nro
brought Into American j.orts by ves.
sola of wnr. Tho Appam, however, as
your Excellency Is aware, s-as not ac
companied by a ship of war, but camo
Into the port of Norfolk alone In charge
of a prlre master and crew."
Ah to the "commissions" mentioned
In Artlclo XIX. Mr. Lanhiho says
thnt they "nro manifestly those of
the captor vessels which accompany
prizes Into port nnd not thoso of the
officers of tho prl7.es arriving In port
without convoy, and It Is clear that
the port of refugo was not to he made
n port of ultimate elestlnatlon or In
definite nsylum," Under this Inter
pretation of Artlclo XIX. of the
treaty witn i'rusia, tne Appam. ir;tw; Cincinnati. Ohio, twenty-three,
