AMERICAN CLAIMANTS
HOPE FOR MILLIONS
Holders of Claims Against spain
Gratificd at the Prospects of
UeinG Paid.

American citizens having claims against
the Spanish government are much & ,ati-
fed TO learn that under the terms OF The
uitiylatum submitted by the American
Peace Commissioners the Government OF
the United States is to assume res 1oI-si-
bility for their payment.
The claimants feel that they are GER
tain TO have much more lib raj Treatment
and to have their claims settled mul Ii
more promptly. If they have To deal on y
with their own Government than would
be probable If they had To deal WITH {
procrastinating Madrid officials through
the medium of an international claims
commission.
1t Is impossible to give an accurate es-
innate of the total amount of Gains of
Americans against Spain, but Sente re-
port OF April Is shows that there wee
then pending in the State Department
claims amounting tn s24,0jo,j00 for the d.
struction of property of American citi-
zens in Cuba. Since that time many moe
have been fled
Many Of these claims, of course, VIII
be disallowed or scaled down before they
are paid but whatever the total amount
of the claims finally allowed may be. II
must be added to the s2D,0po,oCJ offered
for the Philippines in estimating the real
indemnity given by the United States FOR
those islands
Cases pending against Spain are claims
arising out of injuries perpetrated upon
American citizens during the war in Cuba
between 1868 and 1878, and similar claims
arising during the war which began in
1895
The first class may be subdivided into
claims of q date anterior to the Sickies-
Martos agreement of February II, 1871
which failed for want OF time or were dis
missed for want of jurisdiction; claims
considered and disposed of in the Strobei-
Figueras protocol OF May 3. 1857, which
was not approved by the United States.
and claims pending at the time OF that
protocol. but not included in it.
In the first sub-class are several claims
which. for want of time. were not con-
sidered by the commission, and several
more which, It IS contended, were dis
posed of arbitrarily in plain violation of
law. equity and justice. There are others
which were dismissed for want of juris-
diction." 1t is contended that all these
claims should be considered and settled.
