the period above fixed for the delivery to the agents of the case, 

 deliver to the agent of the other Party (with such additional 

 10 copies as maj^ be agreed upon), a printed counter-case accom- 

 panied by printed copies of additional documents, correspond- 

 ence, and other evidence in reply to the case, documents, corre- 

 sj)ondence, and other evidence so presented by the other Party, and 

 within fifteen days thereafter such Party shall, in like manner as 

 above provided, deliver in duplicate such counter-case and accom- 

 panying evidence to each of the Arbitrators. 



The foregoing provisions shall not prevent the Tribunal from per- 

 mitting either Party to rely at the hearing upon documentary or 

 other evidence w^iich is shown to have become open to its investiga- 

 tion or examination or available for use too late to be submitted 

 within the period hereinabove fixed for the delivery of copies of 

 evidence, but in case any such evidence is to be presented, printed 

 copies of it, as soon as possible after it is secured, must be delivered, 

 in like manner as provided for the delivery of copies of other evi- 

 dence, to each of the Arbitrators and to the agent of the other Party. 

 The admission of any such additional evidence, however, shall be 

 subject to such conditions as the Tribunal may impose, and the 

 other Party shall have a reasonable opportunity to offer additional 

 evidence in rebuttal. 



The Tribunal shall take into consideration all evidence which is 

 offered by either Party. 



Article VII. 



If in the case or counter-case (exclusive of the accompanying evi- 

 dence) either Party shall have specified or referred to any documents, 

 correspondence, or other evidence in its own exclusive possession 

 without annexing a copy, such Party shall be bound, if the other 

 Party shall demand it within thirty days after the delivery of the 

 case or counter-case respectively, to furnish to the Party applying for 

 it a copy thereof ; and either Party may, within the like time, demand 

 that the other shall furnish certified copies or produce for inspection 

 the originals of any documentary evidence adduced by the Party 

 upon whom the demand is made. It shall be the duty of the Party 

 upon whom any such demand is made to comply with it as soon as 

 may be, and within a period not exceeding fifteen days after the de- 

 mand has been received. The production for inspection or the fur- 

 nishing to the other Party of official governmental publications, 

 publishing, as authentic, copies of the documentary evidence referred 

 to, shall be a sufficient compliance with such demand, if such govern- 

 mental publications shall have been published prior to the 1st day 

 of January, 1908. If the demand is not complied with, the reasons 

 for the failure to comply must be stated to the Tribunal.
