<p>Seamen’s Wages—Set-off—Settlement.</p>

Relies on Healey v. Maracaibo

Opinion by (per_curiam) · Decided 1896

¶1Seamen’s Wages—Set-off—Settlement.

¶2This is an appeal from a decree of the district court, Southern district of New York, in favor of libelant, for seaman’s wages and penalty on discharge in a foreign port, with interest and costs. See 79 Fed. 809.

¶3Joseph Kling, for appellants.

¶4James Forester, for appellee.

¶5Before LACOMBE and SHIPMAN. Circuit Judges.

¶6PER CURIAM.

¶7Upon the record as it stands we are inclined to agree with the district judge as to what took place before the consul, whose deposition seems not to have been taken. The facts being thus found against the claimants, it is unnecessary to discuss any of the propositions of law advanced upon the argument. The decree of the district court is affirmed, with interest and costs.
