HANDLING EGGS.
Though Fragile, the Breakage in
Transit Is Remarkably Small.


Transit Is Remarkably Small.
From the New York Sun.
Many eggs broken in handling? You
would be surprised to know how few"
said the commission merchant. The
egg is a fragile thing? 1t certainly is,
but as a matter of fact the breakage
Of eggs in transit and in handling is
extremely small, really next to moth
ing. The commercial egg package al
most universally used throughout the
country at the present time is a case
containing thirty dozen. There were
received in New York last year $685.
269 cases of eggs; multiply that by 800,
the number of eggs to a case, if you
care to know the total number OF eggs"
Packed in cases, eggs run about 400
cases to the car: so that the eggs
brought to New York last year made
upward of 1000 carloads, equal to a
hundred and forty-odd solid trains of
eggs of fifty cars each. Are there
solid egg trains? Not many but this
for the reason that the eggs are gath
cred originally from many and widely
sea tered points; but solid cars of eggs
and punches of cars are common, ire
quent everyday shipments. And, pack
ed as they are nowadays, eggs for this
market come from everywhere, pound
Ing over a thousand, fifteen hundred,
two thousand miles of railroad from as
far North and West as North Dakota,
and from as far South and West as
Texas. with scarcely any breakage
worth mentioning.
LAS a matter of fact there were not
very great many eggs broken in ship
ping and handling even when eggs
were shipped in barrels, packed in
chopped straw, as eggs commonly were
up to fifteen years ago. You might
think that. packed in that manner the
eggs would shuck about and smash
against one anothe. and so get broken,
but they didn't but being compare
/ lively heavy and bulky package the
barrel got, naturally. more heavy jolts
and jars in handling than a lighter
package would, and more eggs were
broker in it in that way. But with [
modern eggs case, giving not only Sc
curity in the package itself, but maxi
ing a package that can be easily and
conveniently and safely handled, the
breakage in eggs is reduced to a very
small matter indeed. In the bottom
of the eggs case is spread a thin layer
of excelsior, over which is laid a sheet
of cardboard. upon that being set a
rack of cardboard pockets, each pocket
a holder for one egg. On that first
! layer of eggs is laid another sheet of
cardboard and on that another rack of
pockets, and so the case is filled, the
top layer of eggs being covered with a
final sheet of cardboard. while a layer
of excelsior is placed on that, and on
that the cover of the box, which is
packed just tight enough to keep the
eggs from moving. The egg case is
made of whitewood, of thin. light stuff,
but it serves its purpose well, and the
strengthening strips nailed across the
ends serve admirably as handles.

In the United States Court at Ma

called. When Firth brought suit
against the cotton mill company ask
ing for a receiver, the stockholders
brought a counteractiOn and employed

way. The stockholders claimed that the
attorneys fees should be taken from
the proceeds of the sale of the prop
erty. J. y. Tally was appointed 10 in
vestigate the matter and decided that
as the money received from the sale
was not sufficient to pay the debts of
the company, the stockholders them
selves would have to foot the attor-

the stockholders to this ruling and
Monday morning Judge Speer decided
that Mr.. Tally was wrong and ordered
that $500 of the proceeds of the sale
be paid over to the attorneys. The

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of Ships
and Shipping.

ana shipping.
The steamship Voorburg is loading
at the Atlantic Coast Line wharves
for Rotterdam and Amsterdam. She
is now loading phosphate rock from
Florida, which comes up by rail and
is discharged directly from the cars
into the steamer.
The Voorburg is among Savannah's
regular liners, being one of the two on
the Burg Line with regular service
between Savannah and Rotterdam and
Amsterdam. The other steamer on
this line is the Zeeburg. Capt. Schor
de Boer, of the Voorburg, is well
known in local shipping circles. and
during his few trips here has acquired
many friends.
Capt. ]. o. Johansson and the crew
of fourteen men of the Norwegian
bark Record, of Porsgrund Norway,
which sailed from Darien, Ga. on
April IA bound to Fleetwood. were
taken to New York on board the
White Star Line steamer Victorian,
from Liverpool. The Record was an
old visitor to Savannah.
On April 20 the Record, with her
foremost gone and mainsail and main
topsail hanging loose, was sighted.
There was no sign of life aboard the
derelict. At 7:15 p. m. on the same
day-six hours later-the French fish
ing brigantine Printemps of Redon,
flying signals of distress. was sighted.
Capt. Gavin, of the Victorian, sent
boat alongside the brigantine, 1t was
found that she had aboard the crew
of the Record. which had been taken
off when the vessel was in a sinking
condition on April %.
The Record had encountered a Sc
we're northwest gale which lasted
about three hours She shipped many
seas. which stove in her cabin, smash
ed the lifebOats, carried away the
wheel and filled the cabin with water
destroying the provisions. 1t was
thought advisab BILE by the two masters
to have the shipwrecked crew trans
ferred, as the Printemps had only suf-
ficient provisions for her own crew,
, and would not make port for some
time.
The Record was bark of $50 tons,
and was owned by Nelson & Backa of
Porsgrund. She was built at Selma,
N. s., in 1879, and before purchased for
Norwegian account bore the name Ada
Browne. She carried cargo of lum-
Der out of Darien for Fleetwood.
The steamship M. F. Plant arrived
yesterday with a cargo of coal con-
signed to the Atlantic Coast Line Rail-
way.
