ED BY JUDGE GARY COURT HOURS Will Convene at 9:30 and Recess From 1:30 U? 3?Will Emu Each Evening at .6 O'clock. Tin; spring term of the court of Relierai sessions for Anderson coun ty was convened yesterday morning m la oYIck, with Judge Prank it. Gary of Abbeville, presiding. It whs nearly 11 o'clock before the court had lawn organized, the duluy being caus ed by I ho lurdiness of one of the grand juror.-. When this man arrived Mr. James It. Anderson was appointed foreman of the tribunal and the wheels of the court machinery were sei in motion. The court's charge to the grand Jury was a particularly strong one. As this was the first time some of the members had been called as grand Ju orsr, the court took occasion to re mind them of the responsibility that rests upon them. He stated that the grand Jury was in charge of the liseal affairs of Anderson County and di rectors of the county for the year 1!?ir>. ||c pointed out to them thut much of the responsibility for observ ance of the law rested npon their shoulders, and that It was their duty to present for prosecution not only those defendants named in warrants handed them by the solicitor but any violator of the law against whom they had evidence. Judge Gary admonished the grand jurors that the affairs of the county were in their keeping and that if any employee of the county was not doing his duty it is their business to see thut he does. He udvised the grand Jury to make frequent and thorough examination of the books of the coun ty ollleials. to give proper attention to the roads of the county and to the poor, who have no other source to look to but the grand Jury. He re minded them that the public schools of tho county were In their care and cautioned them to see that the affairs of these institutions are always prop erly conducted. The court suggested to tho grand jury that they ask the county delega tion to have enacated tho necessary legislation providing for the drawing of a panel of 20 or more tallsruen for grand Jury duty and the selection of tho first 18 of these who reported for duty when court.convened. This sug gestion was prompted by the delay due to the tardiness,of one of the grand jurors? , Judge Gury stressed the vital im portance of enforcement of the law a*r?inst tho sale of blind tiger whis key and the carrying of pistols, as these two sins are responsible for more lawlessness thap any other agents that could be found. Upon the convening of court the fol lowing tulismen were excused: J. W Sanders, J. X. Owens. John B. Adger, J. C. Busby. W. C. King and S. C. Bean. To take the place of these and provide other jurors, an extra venire was ordered drawn. Judge Gary announced that the hours of court would be from 9:30 a. in. to 1:30 p. m. nnd from Ii p. m. to 0 p. m, oooooooooooooooooo o o o ERSK1NE COLLEGE o o o ooooooooooooooooo On last Friday evening the ri.ltli semi-annual celebration of the ^hll omathean Literary Society was neld In tho Rrsklne auditorium.

(Ry Aiworintcd Pres?.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.- In reply to Germany's protest against the build ing of hydro-acropiunes by American manufacturers for England and Rus sia. Secretary Hryan bus informed the German ambassador that the State de partment does not concur in the con tention that auch craft are vessels of war "whose delivery to belligerent States by neutrals should be stopped. Tlie correspondence on the subject wus made public today by Mr. Hryan. On January 19, Count von llerns torff wrote the secretary of State, say- | ing hydro-aeroplanes were being sold to the allies, detailing the companies by which the parts were built and ad ded : "There Is no doubt that hydro aeroplanes must he regarded as war vessels whose delivery to belligerent States by neutrals should be stopped under article 8 of the 13th conven tion of the second Hague conference of October 18. 1907. Hydro-aeroplanes are not mentioned by name In the con vention simply because there was none In 19?7. at the time of the conference. "On the supposition Mint hydro aeroplanes are delivered to belli gerents against the wishes of the gov ernment of the United States, I have 'he honor to bring the foregoing to your excellency's kind knowledge." Secretary Bryan replied under date of January 29 as follows: "Excellency: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your ex cellency's note of the 19th iustnnt. and In reply have to inform you that the statements contained In your excel lency's note have received my careful consideration in view of the earnest purpose of this government to perform every duty which Is imposed upon it as a neutral by treaty stipulation and International law. "The essential statement In your note, which Implies an obligation on the part of this government to inter fere In the sale and delivery of hydro aeroplanes to belligerent powers is-. " 'There is no doubt thnt hydro aeroplanes must be regarded as war vessels whose delivery to belligerent States by neutrals should be stopped under article 8 of the 13th convention of the- second Hague conference of October 18. 1907.* "As to this assertion of the char acter of hydro-aeroplanes, I submit the following comments: The fact that a hyrdoaeroplane is fltte- with apparatus to rise from and alight up on the sea does not in my opinion give it the character of a vessel any more that1 the wheels attached to an aeroplane fitting it fo rise from and alight upon land give the latter the character of a land vehicle Both the hydro-aoroplane nnd the aero-aero plane are essentially aircraft; as an aid in military operations they can only be used in the air; the fact that one starts its flight from the- surface of the sea and the other from the land Is a mere Incident which in no way affects their aerial character. '< "In view v>f these facts I must dis sent from your excellency's assertion that 'there is no doubt that 'hydro aeroplanes must be regarded Is war vessels.' and consequently I do not re gard the obligations imposed by treaty or by the accopted rules of Inter national law applicable to aircraft of any sort. ''In this connection I further call your excellency's attention that, ac cording to the latest "advices ?receiVed by this department,"the Gorman im perial government include 'balloons and flying machines and their compo nent parts In the list of conditional contraband, and that In the Imperial Prize ordinance, drafted September<30, 1909, and issued in - the Reichs estzblatt on August 3, 1915, appear as conditional contraband 'airships soil flying, machines, (article ;23. sec tion 8). It thus appears that the Im perial government have placed and -re tain aircrafts of all descriptions) in the class, of conditional contraband, tor which no special treatmont Involv ing neutral duty, Is,so far n.i I am ad vised, provided by any treaty ' to which the United States Is a signatory or adhering powor. "As in the views of this department the provisions of convention XIII of the second Hague, conference do hot apply to hydro-aeroplanes- I do not consider It necessary to discuss the questions as to whether those provis ions are in force during the present war. - ."Accent, excellency, the ronewed las'-; suranccs of ray highest consideration.' ^ "W.
