London. February IL. Sir Stafford Northcote's
insurance bill provides for an implied warranty
against the ship-owner in favor of the cargo and
passengers equally, and prohibits evasion of the
warranty by special contract. In either case such

The second modification relates to valued pol
ices, and provides for proceeding before referees
upon the courts direction, whether the defendant
applies therefor or not, to ascertain what would
be the value Of the interest of the insured if the
policy were open. If the valuation unreasonable
exceeds the real value of subject matter, the value
asceitained by referees alone is recoverable.
The third modification is that owners are al
lowed TO recover only the net freight. The pro-
portion of expense which would have been in
Cured in earning the total eight is to be ascer-
tanned and deducted as the court directs, in any
action on the contract. The fourth modification
