Alabama Claims: Geneva Award Drafts Rare trio of United States Treasury Drafts, March-June 1889, payable to various Americans for their losses as a result of attacks by Confederate raiders Alabama, Florida, and Shenandoah, built in the the United Kingdom. These drafts were made from the $15.5 million Geneva Award, in which the UK agreed to pay the United States for depredations for which it was partly responsible as a builder and supplier of ships for the Confederate States of America. The drafts are #6346 for $1.27 payable to Charles M. Smith for the estate of Sylvester Brownell, March 12, signed by Treasurer"James W. Hyatt;" #7351 for $.65 payable to Edward A. Swift, April 1, signed by assistant Treasurer "J.W. Whelpley;" and #7758 for $.69 payable to Robert N. Hughson, signed by Treasurer "J.N. Huston." All are uncanceled, imprinted with "GENEVA AWARD" in red at left beneath an engraved vignette of Salmon P. Chase. All are lightly handled and EF. With a pair of TLS from 1886 by treasurers Conrad N. Jordan and JW Whelpley. Both are to Charles Clifford of New Bedford, MA, on Diplomatic drafts, probably also from the Geneva Award. Decided between former US Ambassador to the UK Charles F. Adams and Chief Justice Sir Alexander Cockburn with foreign arbitrators, the Geneva Award was the first agreement of its kind between sovereign powers and as such was the precursor of the World Court and the United Nations.
