Chief Justice Fuller Decides the Phil- ippine islands were American Territory. WASHINGTON, December z~~The United States Supreme Court today ren- dered a decision in the case of Emil J Pepke vs. the United States. This is the cues known as the “Four- teen Diamond Ring Case. " and involves the constitutionality of the imposition of customs duty upon merchandise brought into the United States from the Philippines .aftcr the exchange of the peace treaty with Spain The opinion was handed down by Chief Justice Ful- er. The opinion was adverse to the claims of the government on the ground that the Philippine islands were at the time the rings were brought in Amer- ican territory Ceasing to be foreign territory they became domestic terIl- tory. he said The decision in the Deidma Porto RI- can cases was cited at length and it A was held that the resolution adopted A by Congress concerning the Philippines twas not sufficient to change the situa- on The chief Justice concluded his opin- ion by reversing the decision of the court below. Justice Brown read an opinion concurring the result but dif- fering from the conclusions drawn on minor points. Justices Gray. Shires. White and McKenna dissented The case is one of the two important cases left undecided by the court, at its last term. when it decided a number of cases involving the customs relations of the United States with its insular possessions The cases decided at that time was the only case of a large num- ber which were then argued and con- sidered which involved the relations of the United States with the Philippines The other case involves right to im- the United States to Porto Rico. Much nto‘rest has been’manifested in this Philippine case case of the prob» bility of legislation relating to the Philippines at the approaching session of Congress The record a on that Pepke. who was the moon out n the court below. was a soldier in the army of the Unitedu States. in the island of Lump; that while there and after the ratification of » the peace treaty. he purchased the four- ' , teen diamond rinks. which are involv- ed in the case.
