family and baggage, applied to the defend

its railroad. The baggage was placed on the
train. and while the plaintiff was procuring

costly clothing and diamonds belonging to
Mrs. Mccormick, their loss involving thou
sands Of dollars. The Jury awarded yer.
dict in favor OF Mr.. Mccormick for the full
value OF the goods and interest, which
amounted 10 SIG 43l.10 The Pennsylvania
Railroad appealed the case, and prolonged
litigation was the result. The legal contest

plaintiff claimed that the defendant wrong.
fully sc zsd and held his property in resist
ance OF his claims. and was therefore liable
for It's full value. The defendant argued
that the efforts o. the plaintiff tn have his
baggage stopped was virtually waiver OF
his right OF action. That the plaintiff had
no right to recover for such property as had
been presented by him 10 his wife, aud that
jawelry could not be designated as baggage.
The action on the appeal was begun in April,
1861. The late decision is finality to this
loRgcontested case. and gives the executors
of the deceased plaintiff the full amount OF
the claim with interest.
