ArronNEy.GrsERAL BREWSTER is OF
opinion that the proposed new time

For long time the question Of the
liability of sleepipg-car companies has
been subject to discussion, and for that
reason late decision in Pennsylvania
will be OF interest. Tho Supreme Court
affirmed the judgment of lower court
in the case of person who had obtained
verdict against the Pullman Car Com
pany covering the value of money and
jswelry stolen from him while asleep in
one OF its oars. The court held that,
while liable in an action only as an inn.
keeper or a common carrier, at the same
time reasonable degree of care must be
exercised by such a company. A pas.
senger takes passage in such car for
the purpose of sleeping, and pays for the
privilege. While asleep the company's
agent must use reasonable care to pre-.
vent valuables being stolen from his bed,
clothes or person. Il is not case OF
robbery BY force and violence, but
stealthy larceny. The sleeping.car com.
psnies do not hire the right kind of men
as portegs. A porter is paid mere pit
tanco. and depends upon the generosity
OF passengers for his living. He is re-
markably attentive in brushing the over
coat OF the traveller just before the sta
tion is reached, but at other times he is
rather indifferent to The travellers we'll

The British isles have rock.bound

poaranco in history the deliberate wreck
ing Of vessels has been a source OF live.
lihood 20 many Of the dwellers by the
seaside. But, as the world grows
older, tho practice Of roguery be-
comes more and more Of science;
and to-day the bold British wrecker
does not enkindle false bescon-lights on
the shore for the purpose Of Turing ships
to their destruction, but goes to sea in a
well.insured vessel which never again
comes to port. A few days ago, at a
banquet givon at Trinity House, Lon
don. by tho board, the presiding official,
the RI, Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, in
the course Of n speech appealed to all
respectable ship owners TO aid in the
suppression Of this infamous system Of
deliberate wreckage which has grown to
be a frightfully common crime, and has
become q disgrace to the nation. He
stated further the intention OF the gov.
ernment TO introduce and strenuously
urge upon the attention Of Parliament
certain amendments to the existing laws
governing marine insurance, with view
of making tho future wrecking Of ships
as unprofltoble as IL is Infamous. I'm.
doubleday the laws should be amended,
not only in Great Britain, but in all
maritime countries, but, even were the
law to be all that is required, II would
be very difficult matter to prove the
culprit guilty. Spontaneous combustion
Of a ships cargo is not very uncommon,
and In very many eases Of shipwreck by
going ashore the proyerbial uncertain.
ties OF navigation will account readily
for disaster. In all ships. only the cap
tain and his officers, in many the master
alone, are aware Of the vessels position
from day to day. As rule, therefore,
the evidence of ships company would
be of but little practical value in a pros.
ecution for deliberate wreckage, or in n
civil action.

The Thanksgiving proclamation of

the source Of the proclamation, one
would take II to bo the production OF

clergyman. II is certainly very origi.
nal piece of composition, like all that
emnnatss from Governor Butler. But 1t
is certainly in bad taste, TO say the least,

hrsws, and others, do not believe in tho
