or in general, to right and wrong in reference to the particular act with which the accused is charged, and it was further added that such a knowledge was necessary at the time of committing the act, which test, put into question form, would be :Did the accused at the time know the nature and quality of the act he was doing ? There are persons, epileptics, for instance, and also those who suffer from impulsive alcoholic mania (probably the most impulsive among the insane), who even know right from wrong in regard to the particular act, yet who have not the self-control to prevent themselves doing what they know to be wrong at the time. Some authorities, in consequence, have urged that the standard test in regard to responsibility should not be the knowledge of right and wrong at the time, but the power of self-control or the power of restraint. The test would thus seem to be transferred from the intellect to the will, i.e, from the knowledge of right to the power to act rightly. This may be a shifting of the ground, although much can be said for it, and it may not be more difficult or illogical to ascertain the exact amount of self-restraint or selfcontrol· than to ascertain the amount of abstract knowledge of right and wrong which the accused possessed at the time a crime

I PROPOSE to submit to you the facts of the Sidney Street siegenot as described in the periodicals at the time, but rather as they were sworn to, at the subsequent inquiry, by the police-officers, the lay witnesses, and myself. We will begin with a chronological resume, and then consider such of the events as seem to offer interest or instruction. About midnight on the znd January 191 I it came to the knowledge of the superintendent of the H Division of the Metropolitan Police that two men wanted for the Houndsditch murders had taken refuge in the house, No. 100 Sidney Street. They were known by the names Joseph and Fritz; the latter only, sometimes indulged in a surname, which was Svaars. They were further known to be desperate, determined, and armed with long-range weapons. Fritz was the tenant of the house to which Gardstein, who was shot in the Houndsditch affair, was taken, and in which he died. The superintendent believed the arrest could not be effected without drawing a large number of the general public, and therefore" detailed 30 or 40, subsequently increased to 300 or 400, police to deal with the crowd." By 2 a.m. the house was surrounded, and steps were taken to get the innocent occupants
