U?OLAND HEIZEH VOVR CARGOES Kulk ot' Coeds Declured Forfeited lo British Crown. Cond?n, Sept. I ti. Tho British Prize Courl to-day condemned the greater part (?I the American pro ducts running the cargoes of lour' steamships. The products, valued at ' several million dollars, are declared forfeited to Hie crow n. The judgment was delivered by Sir S. T. Kvans, president of the court, li involves the cargoes of the Norwegian steamships Kim, Alfred Nobel, lljorusljcruc Bjornson and i Pridland. All the goods, consisting principally ol American meat pro-, duels, ate confiscated except a small proportion which the court released 10 claimants. The case has been pending for sev eral moni hs. The steamships were seized last November, and although ?*f?irtH we-" "'ade by the American owners lo oh! ,n ?in early trial, thc llrilish aitllio ines sol the lime for lune 'I'lie hearing ?dosed last month and judgment was reserved until to-day. in a lengthy judgment Judge Samuel said it was plain these ships were carrying lo Copenhagen when I he ships were raptured more than Ct limes the amount ol' goods which under normal conditions would have been tal<"ii into that port. Thai fact gave practical and overwhelming as surance i hat the uoods were Intend ed for Cermany, although, ol' ...e. 11 did not provo ci>>",.,|, dy ih;ir lhe> wen- destined for an> enemy ol' Croat ilritaln. One circumstance throwing light on the real destinai ion of tile goods. Sir Samuel said, was thai the exportation of lard hy one \moricnii company alone lo Copen hagen in three weeks after the out break ol the war was more than ?JO limes that in peace times. In tins ol' canned meat, he said, ir had been shown thc} had liol been sent lo Denmark in an> (piantity before the war. yoi hundreds ot' thousands wore on the wa} when the vessels were captured. These 'ins could not have been meant for any persons other than Cern?an soldiers, he asserted. Referring to the consignments of rubber, described as mun, the presi dent said: "I have come io the conclusion thal mun is not a true commercial description for rubber and that it was used m the ship's manifests in order to avoid the dilncillty which would rise in its capture by a bellig erent. A \ concealment ol' this son will, whil 1 sit in ?he prize court, will weigh i.eavily against those who adopt such courses. "Neutrals are expected to conduct their neutral trade during the war without false papers and with can dor, and belligerents are entitled to expect from neutrals a frank course of conduct." Sir Samuel allowed one claim of a Danish manufacturer for a quantity of rubber which 'ie said had beeil shipped in good faith tor use in his factory. A no: her claim was allowed. The tr . cargoes, shipped by the great American packin- companies, and valued by I helli at $ 1 f>,000,000, j wen- lound by the president io be destined, except lor some small items, ? for deliver} m Cermany. ile held that their eventual destination was the (?crinan government, for the use} ot its naval and military forces. To j rule otherwise. Sir Samuel said, would be io allow one's eyes lo lie blinded by theories ami techincali ! ties. Th? 'oui' disallowed sixteen claims, including thos< of the Ar-j monr, Morris, Hammond, Swift and j Sulzberger companies. lt allowed eight claims, including that of the Cildahy Company, of Chicago. The others were Danish consignmeuis. Sir Samuel gave ?eave to appeal, hx seen ri t\ ior Die costs at $2?, . divisible among 'ht' appellants. Ile also gave the crown attorneys h ave to appeal ia the cases of Cuda h.\ and ot'ner claims allowed. Sir Samuel's derision has aroused in ense interest among all the repre sentatives ol' American packing linns here as well a- those immediately in volved. as no \merican meat pro ducts have been ?hipped to Ku ropes n neutrals since last May, and tho un favorable result of tiu> packers' case is likely to cause further stoppage of this trade. I.xpecl lo Win. "We intend to carry the case to th. privy council, where we expect to win," said A. R. I*rion, attorney for the Chicago packers, "but should the decision there be adverse we shall carry it still further.' lt is known that the packers, in the even) of losing in the privy coun cil, will turn further appeals into diplomatic channels, with an interna tional commission as a possible court of final appeal. The packers contend that as the orders in council of last March were not in force when the shipfl were seized last October, lt is not even incumbent on them to prow that tho cargoes were not destined for a nation at war with Great Bri tain, and they expect this contention would be upheld by an international tribunal. Since the cargoes were seized, in October, many efforts have been made lo settle the matter out of court. The approximate value of the cargoes ac tually owned i>y Chicago packers and, shipped lo order was $15,000,000, virtu.aU> all ot which had been cou liscated by i h: prize court order. An additional $7,000,000 worth of products consigned lo, and airead) paid for by Danish consignees, bas been turned o\or in great part to the owners. The Cudahy consignment, valued al $110.1)00, and consigned direct to the Danish owners, has also been released. Packers Issue Statement. Chicago, Sept. 10. 'langland's confiscation of $2.500,000 worth of American meal products, as announc ed in the briel press dispatches to day, is not just ?lied by the facts or any principle ol' International law.'' declared a statement issued here to day by attorneys for big packing in terests "ll can only be construed as another step in England's policy to interfere with the trade of Ameri can citizens with the citizens of neu tral countires. All these shipment were destined lo nen'ral countires. and the ship's paper- at the time of their seizure- clearly showed sieh fact.

A riot was narrowly averted on Main street, in trout of the State House, this after noon following the efforts of the strikers to induce tuen who were run nlng the street ears to leave their places. General Manager A. A. Wal lace, of the street railway, who had jumped on the street car, which was surrounded hy the strikers and their sympathizers, struck H. A. stack, a policeman, over the head with a switch rod, thinking that he was a member of the crowd trying to rush the car and attack him. A crowd which had gathered massed around the ear and there were cheers and jeers when Mr. Wallace was carried ott' by the police to the station house. Hater he was released lintier bond. This incident came directly after a car was stopped on Main street and A. W. Oxner, who was running as motorman, was taken from the car. When this car turned from Gervais street into Main, in fron, ol' the State House, several strikers tried to in duce he motorman to quit his place, lust what followed is not known, hut some remark was made and a lug , crowd followed the street car tor two blocks anti caught it in trout of the National Loan and Exchange Hank. Mr. Wallace anti policemen came to the scene, and alter some time Mr. Oxner was escorted lt) the sidewalk. Hun Over by Automobile. A lane wide enough for antonio- . bi.es to pass through was kept open with difficulty, and finally an auto mobile ran over G. C. Warner, tuan-, ager of the Ideal Theater, who was | in tli?? crowd. He was removed toi the hospital and given altonion. After some lime Mr. Oxner, accom- i panted by Mr. Wallace, caine back to the car and getting on took it up the | street, while some in the crowd cheer et! and others jeered. Policemen finally got the crowd to disperse. Charges were entered by General Manager Wallace against John Gold man. S. C. Mc.Kissick and J. W. Brunswick, who are said to be among the strikers and who are charged I with being the ones who attempted to take Motorman Oxner off the car. This car had barely gotten a block up street when a big crowd was seen two blocks down the street, at the transfer station, which is just in 1 front of the city Hall and State ! House. Srikers were trying to get the motorman and conductors of two ! cars, which were just turning into I Main street, to get off and quit. A tremendous crowd, which had gath ered, were pressing close and Pol ice ni'.;. Stack, who was in plain clothes. it is claimed, was trying to keep the i crowd back by urging them to desist. General .Manager Wallace arrived on tlie scene in an automobile and at once went to the assistance of the men on the cars. He tobi the crew' to stand back. anti, it is said, that | several threats were made against ; him by some persons in the crowd. On account til' the threatening atti tude and the menacing way at which they were trying to climb on the car be thought they were going to attack him. Ile defended himself with a heavy iron rod, and struck Police man Stack over the head, the blow making blood dow freely, lt is said that Mr. Stack, being in citizen's cloibes. Mr. Wallace took him for one of the strikers and hit in self-de fense. .Manning Settles Torlley Strike. Columbia, Sept. 17.

Several days ago the news papers told of Rube's riding up be hind a mountain wagon and scaring the horses, which made a spurt, causing tile wagon to spill its load. The load turned out to be nothing less than a compel te still outfit owned by a notorious blockader of ' ha t sect ion. "Well, Hube captured the team and brought it on to Greenville, along with the two men," said Mr. Merriik. 'Rube noticed that the horse did his best to turn a certain road leading up Paris mountain, so he com laded that the horse was 'homeward bound' and would lead to the home of the blockaders and inci dentally to a still.
