a . over, many of these ‘laws' are im- u plicltly or explicitly subject to the ru

slat on a kind of casulstry of war by lu

ments known as the Hague Convon- 5 tion, and is therefore, ‘wrltten‘ But no lnconsldernblo part remains ‘un- written,’ and is to be sought lu the practice of thc different States as set forth in their military instructions or the general speculations of their _jur- lsts. The general object of these laws may be described asfto clrcuniscribc violence-to protect non-combatants. to safeguard the sick and wounded, to prescribe respect for private property, to extend immunity from attack to un- dcfenrled plnces. and to humanizc the

actual hostilities.

THE IMMUNITIES OF PERSONS.

'The most vital of these laws are

those which distinguish between thc persons and places open to attack or immune from it. All the subjects of one belligerent State are the enemies of the other State, but not ull are coni- batants, and those who are not with- in this latter category are entitled to have their lives spared and tholr lib- erty, within limits, respected. Each class-combatants and non-combal- ants-have their respective privileges. but members of one class cannot claim the privileges of both, and a person lu the equivocal position of n spy is en- tltl'ed o the privileges of neither. A non-combntnnt enjoys immunity from attack. and a combatant, though, of course, liable to be killed during hos- tilities. may claim to be spared ,if he surrenders, and to be treated as a pris- oner of war. But n non-combatant discovered with arms in his hands is not entitled to such tender treatment for he has forfeited the one character without acquiring tho other. .This is only one way of saying that if a man wishes to light for his country he must not do it surreptltloualy. He must.. to quote the Hague Convention ll (Article l.) of 1907 carry his arms openly, wear a distinguished emblem, and be under the orders of a respon- sible commander. -

The Convention marks an advance,

however, on pre-existing practices, es- pecially' on the cruel practices of the Germans in the Pranco~Prunslan War, in that it recognizes the right of the inhabitants of invaded territory to improvise resistance. A 'spontaneous rising' of the population even though unorganized. ls not to subject the peo- ple to the rigorous penalty of being shot’ out of hand, as though they were non-combatants who had usurped the title of combatants. But everything depends on whether the territory ls invaded or 'occupied' If the enemy are in effective possession the subse- quent rising of the inhabitants may be rigorously suppressed as a rebel- lion. But the isolated action of in- dividuals is not to subject the pop- ulation to the vicarious punishment of

fine or declmation.

Whether the German troops. invad-

lnl or occupying enemy territory, will respect his new rule remains to be seon.Nor is it at all clear that they will

But neither did it connunud thc assenl of France; sho is not bound by it, and, as a result of our being allied with her, neither are we. indeed, the effect of the present grouping of belligerent Powers, is to suspend this Convention altogether. Exactly the sumo appears to hold good of the prohibition of mine-laying in coastal waters and in the track of commercial shipping.

RUSSI/US BOLD MOVE.

No Plan More Swiftly Declslve Than

Russian Invasion Through Fosen and Sllesla-If German Advance into France Ever Renewed, it Would Meet Most Formldable Resistance.

(By E. Aslimead Bartlett. Military Expert London Daily Tclegraph,)

LONDON, Sept. 16.- The defeat of

tho Germans in the chain of battles fought last week ln the valley of thc Marne compels the retirement of their forces in a nortlieasterly direction. So long as the French troops at Verdun hold the Meuse valley they check the main line retreat, which now lies to- wards the Belgian, Ardennes and Luxembourg. Metz and the chain ...us to ‘inionvlne from a strong piv- ot for the German strategic lf-ft, while the course of the rivers and the dense forests on the frontier and the lie of the land facilitates the movements of their columns and defensive action.

Nothing in military history appro-

aches the raid by 1,000,000 men tliro. ugh Belgium to Paris and back again to whence they started. A fresh ad- vance from the same point would cor- talnly encounter more formidable rc- sislance for France has augmented her forces to an important extent while the terror that the Gormauu seem to have inspired at the uuiunr seems to have vanished.

It must be remembered that the rc-

treat of such masses as the defeated Germans before the pursuing victor- ious French and British, cannot bo ‘easily accomplished. The cost in ost material, stragglcrs, and pi-lun". ers is sure to be great and may prove disastrous.

-No blow would be more swiftly dc-

clslve ln this war than’ the sum-_euuful Russian invasion of Poscn and SI

of the German Empire. There was a great deal to be said of this strategic plan of the allies and they ran great risks elsewhere to adopt it. In some respect lt has already been justliled. Russian forces have appeared on the sconc much sooner than calculated by their foes. Their energetic attacks have already produced a most import- ant result-they have exerted a pow- erful. perhaps a decisive influence on thc fortune of the war in Franco. The march to Berlin is still attended with great difficulties and persistence would render the advance from the Vistula a very perilous cnterpvlse.

As a general conclusion, the battles

of last week completely changed the situation in favor of the allies; now in turn they must assume the role of assailants on a gigantic scale. This role necessitates the constant des- patch of frcsh troops to renew and reinforce the invading armies and will also make the highest demands on the administrative and executive abil- ity of the chief ol' the Russian. French and British armies.
