WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-Immediate-
ly upon the ratification Of the peace
treaty by the senate. the President will
recommend to Congress the enactment
OF legislation looking to the settlement
OF the claims OF American citizens for
damages sustained in Cuba, Porto Rico
and other Spanish possessions which
formed the seat Of war. These Claims,
to the amount of Sss.OOOOOO on this
score. have already been lodged With
the state department.
It is true that an unknown proportion
Of these are claims based on deprsda-
tlons committed by Cuban insurgents
for which It is questionable whether the
Spanish government could be held re-
sponslble. on the other hand. It Is be-
lieVed that there are many claims for
large amounts that have not yet been
presented, owing to the inability OK the
claimants to secure tho necessary cor
roborative evidence during the Spanish
occupation OF the evacuated territories,
or because Of the belief that i would he

as Spanish sovereignty was maintained,
Now. however, by an article in the
treaty of Paris, the United states mas
assumed liability for all claims pre-
ferred by Its citizens on account OF tne
depredatIons, or In fact on any proper
score.
In turn, the Spanish assumed liability
for any claim that might have been
made on account Of the SpanlshcltiS
or the Spanish government itself
against the United states. What such
claims would have amounted to cannot
be estimated. None were filed with the
United States government prior to the
declaration of war. But 1t is recalled
that there is much criticism on the part
Of high Spanish officials Of the alleged
failure OF the United Stptes to observe
the requirements Of the neutrality laws
and more than one statement to the
effect that the Spanish government In
tended to present claim for q round

United States. So far as IS known. the,
