Souder, éc,—Bénodiet' J.—-Tms is an action brought to enforce a lien alleged to exist upon the American steamer Emily 8, Souder for the amount. of certain advances made to that vessel by the Mbellan:s in the port of Maranham, in Brazil, into: which port she pat in distress iu June, 1885. Tho amount and correctness of the advances are not seriously disputed by the claimauta, ‘The defence re- ied upon it that the advance was not ae Poied the nt of the vessel, of the owners, and that the Pilbaligats eo asoepted a draft drawn by the masier pen his owners as rg tent therefor. The to sustain the fence, On the contrary, the weight of the avidenioe- Js that the advauce was tad upon the credit of the versel and that the draft was not accepied as pay- ment. Hoa @igO appears in evidence that the vessel was @ vessel foreign to the port of ensery ietod that she was Sompened, to pus at nto tuat port in dis- tress by reasou of apaccident to her-screw; that her master was without means sufticieat to’ pay the heeded repairs and the owners without any credit there; nat toe amouns of the necessary expeadi- tuves of the Vessel to enable her to proceed on her voyage was the sum of $5,966 65 tn Pest toward de- fraying which the Hbellanta advance request of the master and upon bis that it should be repaid in gol, tl of $4,887 70, for winicl sim the master gave the lt beliants his draft upou the owners, payadle in gold; but stich drait was udt piven tu payment of the ad- vauees, nor received in extin yuishineut of the origt nal debt, and was never pard. Upon such a state of facts, according -to the maritime law, @ len was created apon the vessel 1m tavor of tne libeliants, Whicl they are entitled to enforce by this action. ‘The remaining question ta a3 to the amount of the lien and we Kind of currevey in which it is payable. As before stated, It appears that the parties con- racted the devt ta gold gad the draft was made payable in gold ta New York. The case, then, aj a pears to be clearly withia the principle of the de- cision Of the Supreme Court of the United States mn the iate case of Bumon vs, Rodes. That case ae- cides that there is now and always has becn, notwith- staudtng the passiye of the Currency or Legai Tender acis a lawful gold and stlver coined money of the United States in use or mouey aad a legal tender, aud ‘vat an express contract to pay coim can only be satisiied by the payment of coin.
