Suit for their Full Wages.
PHILADELPHIA, Jnly 31.-The iron
sidewheel steamship Hero, Capt. Hud-
son, built by the American Shipbuilding
Company for Pedro Scandella, of Cindad,
Venezuela, was seized to-day by United
States Marshal McMullen, of Delaware.
on a writ of libel issued at the instance of
the crew, to recover full wages, under
claim that the vessel is unseawortby.
She left for CIndad via Port of Spain,
Trinidad, on July 6, and after leaving
Delaware capes, followed the Gulf Stream
for more than week, when the Captain
put back by reason Of the imperfect motion
of the vessels machinery. She put into
Cape May for repairs, and finally reached
Delaware City, where she was libelled.
The action of the crew is based on the
provisi n of the statute which allows
wages for full voyage upon a vessel be-
coming unseaworthy, even though the
port OF destination has not been reached.
