A final decision was recently given by the
U. S.Supreme Court, in the somewhat famous
case of Pratt and Brigham against the og-
deusburg and VT Central Railroad. The
action was originally brought. IN the Su-
perior Court of Massachusetts,. TO recover the
value of sundry horses killed and injured by
fire, while being transported from Potsdam
to Boston, and when upon the road OF the
Vermont Central Railroad Company \
verdict was found in the Superior Court Tor
the plaintiffs, which was set aside, and a new
trial was ordered by the Supreme Court OF
Massachusetts, Thereupon the case was re-
moved BY the defendants to the Circuit
Court of the United States and a new declar-
alton filed At the trial in the Circuit
Court the jury found verdict against the
Ogdensburg and Lake Champlain Railroad
Company for the sum of s., 9l9.E, and
found a verdict in favor of the other defend
ants The case was then carried 10 the I.
5. Supreme Court on writ of error. The
main points to be decided were as follows
FIrst-IIad the Ogdensburg and Lake
Champlain Railroad Company power or
right TO contract as a common carrier to
transport the horses to Boston over another
railroad, and beyond its own terminus
Seoond-Was there competent evidence
given on the trial that the company did 50
contract in relation to the horses in ques-
ton?
Third-Did the plaintiffs, by putting their
horses IN a car which they knew was defec-
tive and unsuitable, thereby assume the risk
of such defects and relieve the company
from responsibility for the same?
The U. 5. Supreme Court, Justice Hunt
delivering the opinion, answer the first two
questions in the affirmative and the third in
the negative, and affirm the decision OF the
Circuit Court against the Ogdensburg road.

relation the disaster the probable causes of IT, An
examination OF the manifest Of the City OF Waco on hle
at the CusiOm-house, d,close3 the cause OF thrir
reticcnce II shows that Mallory Co. shipped on board
the Waco containing petroleum. in five gallon
cans intended for the "P T. Gasigh Company, Calves
ton" The word petroleum" was badly written, and
the Custumhouse clerks say that II they had noticed
they would not have accepted the manifest az the vessel
evidently not permitted TO carry petroleum OIL
Supervising Inspector Addison Low said that the City
Of Waco had license for carrying OIL and That the
owners Of tho ship carried il in violation Of the law. If
was a common thing for coa5twsc steamers TO carry
Oil the owners OF tho vessels carrying made themselves
liable prosecution by taking it, aud ran the risk OF
losing their insurance should il become known The law
expressly provides that oil shall not be carried on pas
scnger when there is other route or line by
which it may be shipped As there numerous sail
ing yes, s,els plying between NowYork and Galveston 1t
was plain that this passenger vessel not tho only
route by which oil could have been shipped. II is no
torious fact. however, that steamship companies
habtuay violate the provisions OF the law in relation
10 the transportation Of infammable materials.
The firm acknOwledge that there was large quantity
Of petroleum board said that II packed about
one hundred feet from place where fire was used Ii

and the City OF Waco had such u certificate as was

John X Matthews Of the Government inspectors,
said Yesterday that he did not know certainly what
action would be taken against the owners but the facts
in the would probably be laid before the United
