This is a libel by the master and seamen of the Swedish bark Adolph for wages. �The vessel arrived in this port in August, 1880, in ballast, nnder char- ter to take on board a cargo of grain for an Eurcipean port. On her voy- age hither from France she had a collision, and soon after the arrivai of the vessel she was libelled in two suits — one by the maater of the vessel ■with which she was in collision, on behalf of himself and the owners ; and the other by the insurer on her cargo, to recover damages caused by the collision.

It was not till about the 26th of December that the master was finally advised by the owner that he would furnish no money to pay oli the crew, and would not give bonds to release the vessel. Part of the crew were discharged by their own consent, and took service iii other vessels — one on the llth of Novenjber, and three on the lOth of Jatiuary. iliere was then due them for wages, to the time of their discharge, $613,85.
