steamships, due, it is claimed, to the wrongful act of one of the defendant’s servants. The action by the wife for personal injuries resulted in a verdict for the defendant, and with that judgment sustained on appeal (Rosa Taranto v. North German Lloyd Steamship Company [decided herewith] 112 N. Y. Supp. 499 ) there is an end of the husband’s cause of action.

The judgment and order appealed from should be affirmed.

Judgment and order unanimously affirmed, with' costs. All concur.
