In that case it was held by a majority of seven judges to six that the Central Criminal Court had no jurisdiction to try for manslaughter the foreign captain of a foreign ship--the Franconia--which, in passing within three miles of the British shore, ran into a British ship and sank her; but this state of the law was soon afterwards altered by the (English) Territoria...
