FoREIGN CLAIMS
Ir;,ri.s r,f,rsoa, bv the Government and
,,;,'Innisd n,ay in some cases have heen in
a;ntnd nnon The subjects or citizens of for
eipn countries. both at sea and on land, by
nersons in the service of the United States.
As this government expects redress from
other mowers when similar injuries are infict-
ed nv nersons in their service upon citizens
of the limited St,t,-, we must nrenare TO do
;,stico to FOREIGNERS IF the existinu iudi
ciaI tribunals are Inadequate to this purpose.
a special court NAV be authorized, with DOW
cr to decide such claims of the character re-
ferred to as NAV have arisen under treaties
and public laws. Conventions for adjusting
claims bv commissioners have been proposed
to some Governments, but no definite answer
to the propositions has been received from
any. In the course OF the session L shall
probably have occasion to request you to
provide ndemnlhcatlon to claimants where
DEGREES OF restitution nave Deen rendered
and awarded by the Admiralty Court, and III
other cases where this government may ac-
knowledge itself to be liable in principle and
when the amount of that liability has been
a>certained by an informal arbitration.
The proper officers OF the Treasury have
deemed themselves required, by the law of
the |. 5. upon the subject, to demand tax
on the incomes OF the foreign consuls il this
country. While such demand may not be
interdicted by public law or by an existing
treaty between the United States and for
eign country, the expediency of so far mOdi-
flying the act as to exempt from tax the in
comes Of such cOnsuls who are not aitiznns
Of the United States. derived from the Cmol
unents of their offices or nronertv not situa-
