The action Of the state department in
insisting upon retrial at least of the

swer to the contention of the court mar
tial that the Cushing. protocol of 1877
did not apply to the present case. The
court held that it applied only to Amer.
ican citizens resident in Spain or the
h Spanish dominions, and, as the captives
from the competitor were not in any
sense residents Of Cuba, decided that
they could not claim any of the privi-
leges accorded by the protocol In the
