...their own risk? Suppose an American merchant vessel or passenger liner should decline to submit to such dictation, or, while engaged in non-contraband trade, en route for Hamburg or Bremen, or for some neutral European port, refused to regard the warning shot fired from a British vessel intent on its capture.
