THE ALCED0
DECISION
Handed Down by Judge
Bradford, Deciding
That BradOn Had
No Claim.

Judge Bradford In the United States
court handed down decision In tho case
OF Braden VS. the Alcedo owned by George
W. Childs Drexel, of Philadelphia
Judge Bradford In his decision said that
the libellant, Braden claimed that while
the yacht was at Christana, Norway, be-
fore The voyage for which he shipped was
completed. the master without the consent
and will Of the libellant and without
cause discharged, put him ashore and
would not allow him to serve for the rest
of the voyage.
ut is admitted by the libollant that he
received wages in full up to the time he
left the yacht, and now seeks to recover
an amount equal to the wages he would
have earned had he continued to serve on
the yacht for the remainder Of tho voyage.
The evidence, however. clearly shows that
the libellant voluntarily and without com
pulsion of any kind went ashore at Chris
tiana and abandoned the voyage, after re.
ceiving all wages which he had earned,
and under such circumstances as to pre-
clude him asserting any claim for wages,
therefore the libel must be dismissed

Not an Ablegate.

"The word ALLOCATE, says we'll known
Roman Catholic priest, "seems to have
weird fascination for the American press,
for, though it has been explained hum
dreds of times that the representative Of
the pope in this country is not an ablegate,
at least seven ont of ten papers habitually
refer to ArchI shop Martinelli as an able
gate. An nblcgate is a temporary repre-
sentative of tho popo for some special func-
ton, whilo an apostolic delegate is his per-
manent representative in foreign coun-
try. The funniest thing is that some pa
pers use tho two words in the same article
to describe Archbishop Martinelli. 1t Is
as though writer should refer to Mr.. Nc
Kinley as president and vice president.
