M1lligan, Wall, 8.
The petitioner, Rafael Ortiz. was a ci-
william, native of the island of Puerto
Rico, and had never been in the land or
naval service of the United States While
the state of war existed he might lawful
ly be tried by military commission for
OHenSeS committed, but not before peace
was established, and that country became
a part of the United States. 1t is there
fore important to determine the date
when the war in fact ended and the
treaty OF peace and Of cessiOn went into
effect.
A treaty is a written contract between
sovereigns; its terms are agreed upon and
1t Is signed by plenipotentiaries or COM
mlssioners' who are the authorized
agents of the contracting powers But
after such agreement and signature it
must be ratified by the governments. and
the exchange of ratiflcations constitutes
the delivery Up to that time it is
lnchoate, and may never take effect As
between the contracting sovereigns the
treaty when ratified relates back to the
time of signing, as the stipuations then
made had reference to then existing con-
dlttons. United States VS.. Arredonda G
Pet. 691, 767 But I'm respect to private
IlBHtS the rule is Oluerent, and as affect

VS.. Yaker. Wall, 80. Long time NAV
elapse between the signing Of a treaty
and the exchange of ratihcations In the
case last cited five years had elapsed In
the meantime affairs go on irrespective OF
the terms of the treaty, and will not be
disturbed by any application OF the doc
trine OF relation. 1t follows that when
the petitioner was tried by the military
tribunal, the state Of war still in fact
existed in Puerto Rico, and that tribunal
mad jurisdiction to try. convict and SEN
tence him for said alleged offense. The
petitioners application must therefore be
denied and he is remanded to the Gus
tody of the warden of the state prison
In view of this conclusion 1t might seem
unnecessary to examine even as briefly
as L have the claim that the constitution
does not apply to newly acquired domain
OF the United States, had that claim not
been urged with such confidence and am-
| pHtude of argument as the basis on which
the decision If the case must rest that
acduiescence might be inferred from ST.
