         Appeal from the United States District Court for
                  the Southern District of Texas
                          (H-95-CV-3853)
     _______________________________________________________

                          March 19, 1998

     The judgment of the district court is affirmed.       That court

     *
      Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the Court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.

     AFFIRMED
