Ceballos v. United States

The decision of the court below is reversed in part on the ground that the court erred in holding that the wives and children of Spanish officers, civil and military, and other noncombatant prisoners of war transported as first-class passengers and afforded cabin accommodations aboard ship were to be paid for at the third-class rate specified in the contract, to wit, $73.75.

Mr. Justice White delivered the opinion of the Supreme Court May 17, 1909.
