The M-1909 .45 Colt also hadn't been developed. Frankford Arsenal created it with a wider rim, better for ejection in DA revolvers, like the M-1909 New Service.
The velocities cited in that report suggest that Muley Gil is right, the ammo probably that issued for service in Colt SAA's used in the Phillipines.
