Extract

The first article on this subject in the April number of The American Journal of International Law (pp. 359–380), dealt with the general principles upon which these claims have been held by the Court of Claims to have been in their origin valid international demands against France, and to have been assumed as obligations of the United States by force of the treaty of September 30, 1800, the ratifications of which were exchanged July 31, 1801.

The present article will be devoted to a review of some of the rules on which the Court of Claims proceeded in the details of its allowances.
