JONES, Circuit Judge.
The United States, as the chartered owner of the steamship Bellatrix, filed a libel in admiralty against P. F. Martin, in per-sonam, and three tug boats, in rem, for damages to The Bellatrix alleged to have been suffered through the negligence of the respondents. The court below, having found against the libellant on the charges of negligence, entered a decree dismissing the libel. The present appeal followed, the libellant assigning for error the trial court’s findings, conclusion and decree. A recital of the material facts, therefore, becomes necessary.
