1Opinion of the Court

NÉTERER, District Judge.

Libelant seeks recovery from respondent ship because of damage occasioned to cargo of sugar shipped from port in Peru to Port Vancouver, B. C., because of unseaworthiness of vessel, improper stowage, lack of dunnage, and proper ventilation. The ship sailed in June, 1921, and discharged cargo July 15, following. The ship was attached in the port of Seattle and released under usual stipulation. It appears that all parties to the transaction and the ship are alien, the parties citizens of Peru, and the ship of Peruvian registration.
