Government Asks That All Claims
Growing Out of It Be Dismissed.
Washington, Dec. 4.-Counsel for
the government have presented to the
Spanish treaty claims commission a
brief in support of the motion to dis.
miss the claims growing out of the
sinking of the battleship Maine. It is
contended that it was the intention
of the treaty of peace not to provide
for but to relinquish and leave the
grievance in oblivion as settled in the
tribunal of war
The brief says that the destruction
of Spanish lives and the loss of Span
ish possessions atoned for and settled
any supposed responsibility of Spain
for the destruction of the Maine with
its officers and crew.
