leans on Friday, and offered for delivery on Saturday
afternoon. The consignees, J. o. Woodruff Co.,
refused to receive the freight and it remained the
landing until Monday morning, when it was found to
be in damaged condition The Mazeppa had left
port on Sunday, carrying with her the tarpaulins
which had been over the freight aud leaving 1t exposed
