The ship was ordered before the start of the war; the Philippines seized it during the conflict, and its return was one of the points determined by the peace treaty. It was a choice between handing over the incomplete ship, or keeping it and repaying the Chinese. More logical to give the ship back, especially as it was a decent way for the Filipinos to extend an olive branch to the Chinese.
