The taxpayers q thu United States
need not worry themselves very much
over the claims presented by foreign
pruper,y-cwnef1 in Cuba for damages
sustained during he tnsurpection. They
all suffered serious losses during the
war with Spain. and were absolutely
helpless. II would be prepostesous TO
admit that because the United States
jntssfered In order to protect them from
further moIestation, and enable them to
continue their business peaceahly. tAis
country should make good the losses
they had previously sustained.
Within the last fifty years the usases
Of war have been changed. 90 that there
is greater respect for the property Of
non-combatan but a civilized power,
meaning TO do right itself, cannot rea-
scnably be held responsible for the acts
Of a less civilized power. The nations
generally regard with the strictes.
sanctity the nag Of truce; the Fiiptnos
have treacherously disrexarded II. It
would scarcely be held tenabie that the
United States should be held responsible
for the failure Of the enemy to observe
rules which we have set up Ter our own
conduct.
The old rule was that one who de-
serted his own country and took up resi-
dence In another for the purpose Of
profiting himself. forfeited the protec-
ti9n, q his own country and assumed
all the risks and liabilities incident to
residence in his adopted country. There
was = good deal Of rough-and-ready
justice about that view Of the matter.
but within the last century that has
had 20 be modified. The modification
would be peculiarly appropriate in the
United States. This country. together
with others, has invited the presence of
foreign traders. and there Is an implied
assurance Of protection; but In any case
the protection would come. Of course.
from the sovereignty under which resi-
fenee IL taken up
In the case OF Cuba, the foreign resi-
dents assumed the risks OF doing bust
ness and placing their persons within
the jurisdiction Of the crown Of Spain.
They were In danger Of being killed.
their crops were being destroyed. their
farms rendered valueiess. The United
states troops went to their rescue. and
while, In the conflict Of arms. some add
tional damage may have been done. II
was exceedingly slight as compared to
the vast loss caused by the insurrection.
and under no construction Of interna-
sionai law could the United States be
held liable.
The only case on record which affords
a parallel 10 the action Of those for
eigners IN seeking redress from this
country Is that In which q man jumped
into the water to save another from
drowning. and when they arrived on
shore the one who was saved began an
action against his rescuer for tearing
his clothes
