They respected the United States Navy, but failed to see what it had to do with the case in point. Taken at his own valuation, "Captain" McTurk was in the employ of the Republic of Sacaronduca ; and students of the large-scale atlases presently discovered this country among the more volcanic states of Central America, The trouble which had arisen was a simple one. A big new battleship lay at moorings in the dredged-out fairway of the Tyne ; McTurk in the name of the Republic of Sacaronduca want...ed to take her to sea ; and the British Foreign Office, having in mind that war was raging between Russia and Japan, and possessing a sore memory of the late Alabama, served Captain McTurk with a ne exeat regno through the medium of the Customs House. The word "arrest" had been a clerical error.
