The admiral took another and more effective method of evading it. He kept his boat moving so that the marshal of the Kings Bench could not serve the process. In the particular case we are considering this amendment proposes that if a person seeking admission to this country is restrained from entering it and makes the claim that he is a political refugee. it shall be competent to have the justification of that claim determined upon a writ of habeas corpus. When a man conies into this country he immediately passes into the hands of a public officer. the Imnuigration Coamissioner. My friend from California seems to forget that the Immigrant is in this country the moment lie comes within the 3mile limit. He Is as much in the country while aboard a ship in our waters as when he has landed.
