No. 866 | W.D. Wash. | Jan 15, 1912
Under the authorities, I see no escape from the conclusion that the libelants bore such relation to the ship at the time of the occurrences described in the amended libel that they were not in the position of salvors and are not entitled to salvage compensation.
It is therefore ordered that claimant’s exceptions to the amended libel be, and they are, hereby sustained.
