DISTRICT COURT, Judge Wylie.-This morn
ing, the question arose in this court as to
whether the property ordered to be sold uader
the confiscation act was to be sold subject to
the claims OF the creditors of the parties in
whose name the property has been seized; In
several CT the cases various parties having
asked that their claims be allowed TO intervene
Judge Wylie decided that the property was
to be sold without reference to the claims and
that the Court would put the purchasers in
possession and that the creditors should look
TO the proceeds of the sales. Judge W. referred
70 tae nun erous cases likely to arise from the
conf1scation OF the property, nearly all OF which
would involve the incest points of law, but did
not express an opinion on them, preterriu o that
.hey De considered when they came fully before
the court.
In the case of the schooner Henry WaIcott,
OF Philadelphia, which was libilled as a prize
having been found abandoned in the Chesa-
peake by the gunbo Satellite, and the schoon-
er VIM. Ellis In a damaged condition while
on the voyage from Baltimore to Matamoras.
The Judge decided to restore her to the owners
on their paying salvage. It will be recoI-
lected that the Walcott left PhiladeInhia
and put into Baltimore for repairs, and in
going down the bay she was struck nv a
government steamer and was in sinking
condition when found. The captain and crew
went to Baltimore for assistance leaving no
one on the vessel, and in their absence the
schooner Ellis and gunboat Satellite found her
sinking, but by hard work succeeded in keen
ing her afloat, and brought her to this mort,
where she was libelled and sold. Messrs.
Eames and Wilson appeared for the Satellite,
Phillips for the Ellis and Gillet for the owners.
