Spanish Treaty Claims Commission : ウィキペディア英語版 | Spanish Treaty Claims Commission The Spanish Treaty Claims Commission was established by the United States at the conclusion of the Spanish–American War for the purpose of carrying out one of the terms of the treaty ending the war.〔"(Final Report of the Spanish Treaty Claims Commission )," (Washington: Government Printing Office, 1910).〕 The Commission was created by an Act of Congress approved March 2, 1901.〔Pub. L. No. 115, 56th Cong., 2nd Sess., 31 Stat. 877.〕 Working from 1901 to 1910, the Commission resolved nearly $65 million in claims, and awarded less than $1.5 million.〔 ==The United States' indemnification of Spain== Under Article VII of the 1898 Treaty of Paris, the United States assumed responsibility for the payment of all claims of her own citizens for which Spain would have been liable under principles of international law.〔"The United States and Spain mutually relinquish all claims for indemnity, national and individual, of every kind, of either Government, or of its citizens or subjects, against the other Government, that may have arisen since the beginning of the late insurrection in Cuba and prior to the exchange of ratifications of the present treaty, including all claims for indemnity for the cost of the war. ''The United States will adjudicate and settle the claims of its citizens against Spain relinquished in this article''." Art. VII, (A Treaty of Peace Between the United States and Spain ), U.S. Congress, 55th Cong., 3d sess., Senate Doc. No. 62, Part 1 (Washington: Government Printing Office, 1899).〕 Thus, in proceedings before the Commission, the United States government was effectively required to stand in the shoes of its defeated adversary, Spain, and to defend against the claims of its own citizens by defending the actions or omissions of Spain.
