Freight on Crude Oil.


Peter hoffman 0s. II. Y. Sltpalan et d.--Tbis
was an action TO recover the sum Of sixty dollars
freight of $50 barrels OF crude Oil conveyed by plain
san from Browns yard, foot of sixty-ff;h street.
East river to DEFENDANTS yard, foot Of Van Brunt
street, Brooklyn, al twelve cents per barrel. The
defence set up that only 236 barrels were
delivered; that there were delivered seven barrels
OF water, and that seven barrels were missing or
short, and connterclalmed for the oil which was
ehOrt-500 gallons at twenty-One cents per gallon.
The plaintiff endeavored to prove by the captain of
the schooner that he delivered ali the Oil he re-
ceived, while the defendants showed that the oil
was regularly inspected before putting 1t on board
the schooner Dy Mr. Purdy Oil inspectors that the seven
barrels OF water delivered was salt water, and
therefore large portion Of the Oil must have been
stolen or extracted during the voyage, and salt
water put in its place. AS is usual In such cases
there was q great deal Of confcting testimony;
but the Court arrived ut the conclusion that
the oil was put on board the schooner ana
was not 0ehvered and that the burden OF proof was
cast upon the plaintiff to show what BECAME OF it;
and falling TO DO this he must RESPOND IN damages
70 defendants for its loss. Judgment was therefore
rendered for the defendants for $50 49, with costs,
over and above the proper amount Of freight al

weeks longer win be required to clear the surplus
stock OF coal out OF market. None OF the regions
ought to suspend over four weeks, and 1t ought to
be so arranged that the coeres should resume at
the expiration of four weeks in those regions where
the suspension continues that period, and In the
other regions where they did not suspend at nr6f
they ought to continue out q week longer. Such d
policy might render no further suspension nece6.
