1Opinion of the Court
HOUGH, Circuit Judge.
This pendant to the celebrated litigation over the Appam (243 U. S. 124, 37 Sup. Ct. 337, 61 L. Ed 633) seeks to raise the single question whether, under the facts shown and the law of Great Britain, a lien for freight exists in favor of the Appam’s owners against the late cargo of that vessel or the proceeds thereof.
The action is in rem, and the res proceeded against is money producá by sale of cargo—a sale in pari conducted by those to whom the *232cargo was finally awarded, and in part a judicial sale pendente lite of so much of the lading as was confessedly perishable.
