Uncle Sam must answer that question , It is for hIm to name the aluoutut of the in- lemnity. Since nations first began to fight the rule ! itch compels the defeated to pay roundly for defeat has prevailed. "So bulb bi your territory and so mulch of your money" has been Invariably the final word of the conqueror to tIme conqtlered. In the earlier wars of the century sonIc notable precedents have been made front which an idea may be formed of time alto of time bill shortly to bo made out. by time United States against Spain , The principle followed has been that luothi in territory and in ca8h time dcfc'mtted nation is liable to Pay foii its experienco. A far-off but famous Illustration of thin principle is founil in the terms of peace dIctated by the allied powers of Europe to France , after the fall of Napoleon at Waterloo. Not only , VCIO various pieces of French territory aim. proprlated , but her important frontier fortresses were lucid for live y ars by an "army of occupation" which the French treasury was made to pay neil stutuport , As a result of time three wars between Great Bnitnin atul China (1840 ( , 1857 and 1860) ) thu Chinese government , besides ced- tug Hong Itong to the victorious hiritish and opening several cut her ports to trade , was inado to pay an indemnity amounting in all to about $35,000,000 , , In the case of the war between the United States anti Mexico , wbcn the terms of peace were dictated by our govoriuineut , compensation was taken vhiolly In terrItory. Mexico s'au too poor at. that time to have paid a cash indemnity equivalent to the cost of the 'ar , which was about $100,000,000. So we took Call- formula and New Mexico instead of money , and considered the bargain so good that we paid $15,000,000 to the Mexican government as an additional consideration for tIme transfer , Time Alnbnuuit Award , Although not strictly a war indemnity that paid by Great Britain on account of tlo depredations of the Alabama during our civil war Is of timely interest , as cx- amplifying the extent to which claims for compensation may be built up and cut down. As originally put forward the American claims iractically comprised every Item in the expense of the war from the day on which tIi Alabama put to sea. The prolongation of the war was attributed en. timely to her amul she was therefore made responsible for this as VelI as for the loss autferud b AmeIcan commerce through its transference to forogn vessIs amid the increased rates of maritIme insurance. The Geneva trIbunal , however , decided that such Indirect results of the Alabama's depredations could not be included in the bill and awarded an indemnity of $15,875,000 as an equivalent for the injury actually 'to the United States ttrough the fault or negligence of England. The recent war between China and Japan was terminated by the 1)0000 of Shimonoseki three years ago. By the treaty China agreed to pay Japan a um equivalent to $175,000- 000. In addItion , she ceded the island of Formosa to her conquerors , recognized the independence of Corea and consented to opea roth' ness tretty portfl. The war between Prussia and Austria , in 1860 , was rounded off by the payment of a notable indemnity by the vanquished Aus- tnians. In addition to the territorial aggrandizement - grandizement of I'russia and the exclusion of Austria from thu German bund , the treaty of Prague , which terminated the war , provided for the payment by Austria of an indemnity of 40,000,000 Prussian tbalera , or abopt $3Q,000,000. From this amount , however , deduction was made of 15,000,000 thalers , representing Austrian claims on Schloswig-Holstoin , and 5,000,000 tbalera as an ouiyalent for the free maintenance of time I'russiaa army in Austria , pending the conclusion of peace. 'rho heaviest war indemnity of modern times was , of course , that Paid by France at the close of the war with Gemumany , The hostilities lasted over eight months , and the total cost of the war was estimated at $1- 580,000,000. Besides the cession of Alsace nod Lorraine , France bad to pay Germany 5,000- 000 franca ( $1,000,000,000) ) in installments which were allowed to extend over three years. The original demand of Germany was sir milliards , or $200,000,000 more. 1.1.

The coat of the Russo-Turkish war of 1877 has been estimated at $945,000,000. lie- tween the declaration of war by Russia and the treaty of San Stefamlo nearly cloven icontha elapsed. By this treaty tbo Porto dxnitteil itself indebted to Russia in the sum of 1,410,000,000 rubles ( about $725,000- 000) ) es Indemnity for the losses and cx pensos of the war. Time items in the account us't'ro as follows : 460O0O,000 , for war ox- poises , $205,000,000 for damage done to the outb coast of Ruuasia , her export commerce , ndustrlos and railways ; $55,000,000 for In- juniem causxd by the invasion of the Caucasus , and 5,000,000 for injuries nut- fared by 'Russian subjects and establish- noimts in Turkey. In conaldoration of the financial embarrassments of the Ottoman cinpre , the czar consented to accept in substitution for about three.flttlus of time total sum the various territorial cessions aanctioncd by the treaty of Berlin. This lefl a balance of $225,000,000 duo to Russia by Turkey , and a Part of it is still unpaid , Th latest and most lenient war in- doumntty was that levied by victorious Turkey on Greece last year , Time sultan was obliged by the great powers of Europe In cut It down to $20,000,000 , which was not a fourth Iart Of what it actually cost him , A few comparative flguras , taken from omclnl records , will serve to nut time great increase in elm cost of war as now con dueled , with all the modern improvements , in a clear light , Our war ( or inilepeudonce lasted eight yenma , and Its cost 15 omehally recorded as $135,000,000 , , using round liures , There were about 310,000 troops emugageil In than have been that war-one-third more called out in time present conflict with Spaimi. it follows that , accepting 1uir.
