They Will Hardly Be Accepted as a
Set on to the Mora Claim.

The Spanish claims against the United
States. which the Spanish minister here is
said to have cabled to his government as
advancing toward adjustment. by reason
Of the admission of their justice, are closely
identified with the early existence Of this
government. They arose through the inva-
sion of Florida by the American army about
the beginning of this century, when Florida
was Spanish province. The troops seized
or destroyed some personal property of
Spanish subjects, who after the cession of
Florida took up their residence in Cuba,
declining to give allegiance to the new flag
In the treaty of 1919 negotiated between
Spain and the United States an article was
included providing for the settlement of the
damages sustained by these Spaniards. The
claims were referred to the territorial
courts of Florida and they fixed the dam
ages for the actual loss or destruction of
property. and. in addition, allowed the
claimants per cent of the amounts fixed
upon for the delay in settlement, running
through twenty years.
BY rather loose phraseology this second
airy award was termed interest" and from
this all the trouble has arisen. When the
claims came before Secretary Woodbury. in
1896. he took refuge in an old statute for
bidding the payment of interest. and paid
most Of the principal Of the claims, but
struck out the allowances for delayed pay
ments. Prior to this Congress had made
ali liucllilltc anu
for full settlement. From this point
down to the present time the East Florida
claims, as they are known, have vibrated
between the Department of State and Con-
gress. and many reports have been made
on the subject. Generally, the executive
contended that further congressional ac-
ton was required, while the legislative
branch of the government held that il had
clothed the executive with ample power to
settle the claims and had made the neces-
sary appropriation. Every Spanish min
lister to Washington in the last fifty years
mas pressed for settlement, but so far
without success. The present minister Mr.
Muruaga, has taken his turn at Them and
apparently he feels encouraged to believe
that he had advanced toward settlement.
but II cannot be learned here that the end
is yet in sight. 1t is probable that. together
with number of other Spanish claims
against the United States and of the
United States against Spain, they even
tually will form the basis for the ap-
pointment of a joint commission, which
is really needed to adjust these COM
plicated and vexatious matters. The amount
of the claims is said to be in the neighbour
hood of $l.00oO00. 1t is not likely that these
claims can be regarded as a set OF against
the famous Mora claim, inasmuch as the
United States has repeatedly insisted that
because of Spain's admission of the sound
ness Of this claim il must be considered
apart from disputed claims

PRINCESS COLONNA'S CASE.
Its Legal Status May BE Affected by /,
Case Now Pending

1t Is said by the legal authorities about
the United States Supreme Court that
the status of the contention between
Prince and Princess Colonna may be ma
terially affected by case soon to be heard
before the court. The differences between
the prince and the princess have recently
attracted attention on both sides Of the
Atlantic and have been intensified by the
princess escape with her children from
France to this country, in spite of a de-
cree in the French courts giving the Gus
tody of the children to the prince
The case soon to be heard in the United
States Supreme Court is as to the extent
to which the judgment of a French court
can be enforced in the United States The
case involves Judgment for about $500
600. given by the French courts against
Hilton. Hughes & Co. of New York The
French judgment is being contested on the
ground that the case should have been
tried in this country. where the American
defendants could have received a full and
fair jury hearing. 1t has also been urged
that the French courts give no recognition
TO the DEGREES or judgments of American
courts, and that If an American wants
redress in France he must go to France to
get II.
Should the Supreme Court sustain the
French Judgment it is said that prece-
dent will be established governing the CO.
lonna case and various international liti.
cations. Prince Coionna has the decree of
a French court favorable to his custody
of the Colonna children, but the princess
has removed the children from the iuris-
diction of the French courts. IT, however.
the precedent is established that foreign
DEGREES can be certified to the courts OF
this country and then enforced 1t would
permit the French decree as to the CO.
lonra children to be given effect in this
country. 1t is said that this is only one
of a number of cases involving interna-
tional domestic entanelements which would
be affected by a ruling favorable to en-
forcing the judgments and DEGREES of
foreign courts.
