THE MURDER OF FRYATT. PRESS COMMENT. Press Association —Copyright, Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. London, July 21. Commenting on the murder of Captain Fryatt, the Daily Mail asks: When will the Foreign Office learn that the -cannibal isn’t reformed by telling him that his habits 'are ungentlemanly and contrary to the rules of the game? The paper recalls Lincoln’s order that for . every United States soltfier 'killed in violation of the laws of war a rebel soldier must be executed,and urges the adoption ol Lord Kitchener’s proposed twei%y-one years’ deprivation of civil rights. L’Homme Enchaine, referring to the Lille, Roubaix, and Fryatt outrages, says*: “Our indignation must be expressed by the sternest resolution to chastise the assassins terribly when the time comes. Our peace treaty will be a decree for justice.” Le Temps declares: “These things could only be done by Germans- or. Kurds. Germany, by her crimes, is already fixing the terms of peace.”
