Washington, May 1.-THE court Of
claims today decided that duties col
ected on goods shipped from the United
states to the Philippines after the trea-
~ of peace with Spain and before the
establishment of civil government, were
rightfully collected, although by mill
tary authority and not by law. The de-
cison follows the insular decision OF
the supreme court in that the Philip
pines are United States territory. The
case decided was the claim Of Warner,
Barnes & Company, a British corpora
ton, which sued the United States for
SS1,126. Other claims resting ON exactly
the same foundation aggregate between
$1,000, 600 and SS,000,0O0 by the decision
this amount win be saved to the gov
eminent.
