Importance, as having perhaps some

entitled to the protection conveyed
by an American passport, but a formal

citizens of Porto Rico" to the pro-
lection of the United States govern

er law conveys the same privilege to
the inhabitants of the Philippines.
The United States statutes prohibit
the issue of a passport to any but
| American citizens. But those later
| acts, the Foraker act and the Spoon
er act, impose obligations in their
turn, which may be regarded as qualk
