Opinion
delivered the opinion of the Court.
The case is not a case where the property is in custody of a court of admiralty, or brought within its jurisdiction, and in the posséssion of any private person. It is not, therefore, one for the exercise of that jurisdiction. It is a mere personal suit against a state to recover proceeds in its possession, and in süch a case no private person has a right to commence an original suit in this court against a state.
