of Prize Courts and jurdisdiction had, however,
been dealt with earlier—in 1864, in 1891, and
1895 ; by section 4 of the Judicature Act of
1891 the High Court in England was declared to
be a Prize Court, and all causes and matters
within the jurisdiction of the High Court as a
Prize Court were assigned to the Probate,
Divorce and Admiralty Division of that Court.
On the hearing of his first case—the Chile—Sir
Samuel Evans began his judgment with these
words :

I am sure we all deplore the causes which render it
necessary for a Prize Court to sit again within these realms

Court and made by the Privy Council in recent
years under the Prize Courts Act, 1894, and
not by the Rule Committee which frames the
the rules for the Hight court. Rules were issued
on August 5, 1914, assimilating the form of
the proceedings to the course of a civili action.
But when there are no rules the practice of the
old High Court of Admiralty , or such other
practice as the President directs, is followed.
The Powers of the court are set forth by
Mr. Justice Sotry (who said Sir Samauel Evans,
" as an exponent on treaties and judgements
