EL ESTERO

No. 1277.

14 F.2d 349 (1926)

EL ESTERO.

District Court, S. D. Texas, at Galveston.

July 21, 1926.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

W. E. Price, of Galveston, Tex., for libelants.

W. T. Armstrong and W. E. Cranford, both of Galveston, Tex., for respondent.

HUTCHESON, District Judge.

This is a suit for wages, brought by two seamen to recover their wages and the statutory penalty for nonpayment under section 2, Seamen's Act 1915 (Comp. St. § 8363b). Justifying, respondent replies that it offered the seamen half wages at the port of Galveston, but that the seamen without right demanded full wages, and upon refusal quit, and are therefore not entitled to recover.

The seamen invoke W. O'Hara v. Luckenbach
