A Famous Inn.


Mr. James R. Stewart of the Kenil-
worth Inn, Biltmore, N. c.. is in the
city in the interest of that famous inn.
The Kenilworth changed hands some
time ago and the present owners COM
pletely overhauled and refurnished the
house Sixty-five thousand dollars
was spent in furnishings alone and to-
day the inn ranks with the best of the
high-class houses of the country.
The inn has been closed during the
summer. but this year the manage
ment has decided to keep open in sum-
mer in order to afford to Southern peo-
pie an ideal mountain resort. The same
high-class service maintained through
the winter will be a feature of the
Kenilworth this summer-with the ad-
vantage of very much lower rates.
The inn is located in the center of a
private park of 100 acres, thirty of
which form a beautiful open lawn, the
balance being laid out in romantic
walks and drives, while the wild noun
tain country around Biltmore affords
charming and picturesque drives. The
views obtained from KeniIworth are
superb A craggy range of mountains
seven miles distant, is 10 be seen to the
east; the valley of the French Broad
river, and the Smoky Mountain range,
out OF winch SNduQ COHSplCuOuSiy the
famous peaks of Pisgah and the Rat
make the beautiful picture to the west.
The hotel faces the South, and over
looks the magnificent estate of Mr..
George Vanderbilt, which it joins, and
a view of this park of several thou
sand acres, with its winding drives and
forests, is beautiful beyond descrip-
ton. The excellence of its cuisine
has always insured the Kenilworth
patronage of the best people.
The Kenilworth Inn is now under the
management Of Mr.. Edgar b. Moore,

Gen. wheeler at New orleans.

Gen. Wheeler unintentionally wound
ed our feelings when he presented him
self at the last reunion, dressed in the
undress uniform of a retired officer of
the United States army; the uniform
which always brings up the vandals
Sherman, whose motto was, "War is
hell" and who did make it so upon
every opportunity; of Sheridan, who
boasted that a crowd would have to
carry its rations when flying over the
country he devastated; of the creature
Miles, who placed shackles upon our
loved President, and of the barberous
treatment inflicted upon the defenseless
women and children of the South by
the Yankee army everywhere.
Gen. Wheeler in a moment Of
thoughtlessness, angered US, but we
ought to remember his great services
to our country, and should not harshly
visit punishment upon him for this
great break. No one can doubt his
great love for the Confederacy and his
loyalty to its memories. And we should
remember an instance where a direct
insult was passed over. or, at least,
with faint expression of contempt, viz,
the appearance upon a certain occasion
of a great soldier who had deserted his
country in her time of need, and made
himself conspicuous in the uniform he
had disgraced. Let us be lenient with
Gen. Wheeler, for he intended no disre-
spect Nothing was farther from an
intention to insult or even wound his
old comrades We owe him "a vast
deal. and ought to forget the incident.
We should remember that his civic
record Is as clean as his war record
was brilliant, and while we must re-
gret his act. we should view IL as an
error and forget II. NJ. r. Tunno.

Judge Norwood rendered decision In
the City Court yesterday of serious inn
portance to merchants and others buy
ing goods outside of the state and haV-
ing shipments made under bills OF
lading in which it is stipulated that no
carrier shall be held liable for loss or
damage not occurring on its own line
The case was that of Kavanaugh *
Co. against the Southern Railway, in
which the firm sought to recover for
the loss of a shipment of apples for
warded from County Line, N. Y, to
Savannah over several railroads the
Southern Railway being the last TO
handle the apples. The railway COM
psny virtually acknowledged the loss
of portion of the shipment. There
was a difference of $500 and Kava-
naugh & Co, through its attorneys,
O'Connor OByrne & Hartridge,
brought suit under the Georgia statute
which provides in the case of connect
ing carriers that the last company
which has received the goods AS in
good order shall be responsible to the
consignee for any damage, and that the
companies shall settle among them
selves the question of ultimate iabli-
ity.
The Southern Railway received the
apples at Alexandria, Va, from the
Pennsylvania Railroad. Judge Nor
wood held that the Georgia statute
cannot have eXtra-territorial opera
ton, and is imperative in cases where
goods are received outside of the state,
in New York, for instance, to Oe trans
ported by a number of railroad lines,
and delivered in Georgia.
If the statute. he said, had contained
a provision authorizing the railroads
to make contract limiting their liahil-
ity to damage occurring upon their own
lines, or if ii were susceptible of con-
struction which would authorize the
railroads to make such contract, then
il would not be void as a regulation of
Interstate commerce, but IL contains no
such provision and Is susceptible of
no such construction, and, consequent
", under the decisions Of the United
States Supreme Court II is regulation
OF interstate commerce, and is to that
extent imperative.
The statute would be binding, Judge
Norwood held, II the receipt of the APP
pies had been consummated In Geor-
gia, but insofar as the statute sets up
cause OF action arising in another
state. Il Is IN conflict with that provis-
ion OF the federal constitution, which
gives Congress exclusive control OF
commerce between the states.
There WAS a contract IA the kava-
naugh case made In New York, be-
tween the New York Central and Hud-
ron River Railroad, the initial line,
and the shipper. in which the follow
ing conditions were stipulated
No carrier o. party ga possession %

scribcd, shall be- liable for any loaf
thereof " damage thereto, by causes

bevond its control or by floods or by
fire: or by quarantine, or by rlotS,
strikes or Stoppage of labor; or by leak
age breakage, chatting, loss in weight,
changes in weather, heat, frost, wet or
decay No carrier is bound to carry
said property by any particular train
or vessel, or in time for any particular
market, or otherwise than with as rea~
soma BILE dispatch as its general bust
ness win permit. Every carrier shall
have the right, in case of necessity, to
forward said property by any railroad
or route between the point of ship
ment and the point to which the rate
is given. No carrier shall be liable for
loss or damage not occurring on its
own road. or its portion of the through
route. nor after said property is ready
for delivery to the next carrier or con-
sisnee."
Under the decisions of the Supreme
Court. Judge Norwood held that con-
tract of this nature, when valid in the
state where made, is valid here, and
under the laws of New York such con-
tracts are valid there, and are therefore
binding in Georgia. The effect of the
stipulations. Judge Norwood held, is to
provide that no company shan be la
BILE for loss or damage not occurring on
its own road or portion of the route,
and is :. bar to the proceeding brought
by Kavanaugh & Co.
The case was begun Wednesday and
was argued for the Railway Company
by A. A. Lawrence, ESQ.,, who attack
ed the statute as in conflict with the
United States Supreme Court decisions.
1t was continued yesterday morning
until brought to a close by the court
directing a verdict in favor of the
railway.
1t is understood that the clause
limiting liability for the loss or damage
to the lines on which it occurs is Gus
tomary in bills of lading. Heretofore it
has been the custom and has been I'M
derstood to be the right of the con-
signee to hold the last company which
received the shipment responsible for
loss or damage whenever any occur
red, under the Georgia laws.
Mr.. O'Connor has given notice of APP
peal to the Supreme Court. It's opinion
will be an important one to the mer-
chants of Savannah and throughout
the state.
The effect of the decision of the City
Court is TO compel consignees TO seek
redress for loss or DANCE TO shipments
in the states where the damage or loss
occurred 1t is understood that the
Interstate Commerce Commission reg
ulations provide that the consignee
shall be furnished this information.

For years. men and women in every

ing the praises of Paine's Celery Com
pound, and telling of it's victories over
disease and death. Those who were
most heavily burdened with disease,
victims of suffering pronounced incura-
BILE by DOCTORS and who stood on the
brink of the grave, are the people who
most gratefully remember Prof. Phelps
of Dartmouth College, the eminent
physician and scientist who discovered

NO CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT.

The weather department was kind
to Savannah yesterday and handed out
a very pleasant twenty-four hours set.
There were no complaints about the
cold, nor had anyone real excuse for
grumbling about the heat. A fair and
reasonable amount of caloric was in
the air and those who had come down
to summer negligee were strictly all
right and comfortable. 1t was a day
that made the shady side of the street
preferable until the afternoon was
wearing away into twilight, but then
the people came out and stopped out
until a late hour. There were some
people who still talked about the days
of the "nineties," and to hear them
would be to think perhaps that they
were worse than the Sixties and the
war.
The mark Of partly cloudy" was
displayed on the weather map and
this was not unwelcome, for the suns
rays haven't reformed much since last
Sunday and people were content to
have some clouds. The mercury stop
ped in the lower eighties and at night
fall was down in the seventies. Good
enough weather for the end of May
in the South, with heat enough to
keep the melons and peaches ripening
and the corn growing. A brisk south
breeze was a feature of yesterday and
is expected to continue to-day. The
records showed the maximum temper
allure yesterday as 81 degrees and the
minimum 70 degrees. This was a de-
parture from the normal te the ex-
tent of one degree on the cool side of
the book The barometer is high and
good signs appear for continued pleas
ant weather.

WHAT'S IN A NAME?

With a smile that was childlike and
bland the city official and combination
man approached the telephone in one
of his various places of business
Crossing his feet and adopting the pat
Ionizing and cheerful tone used for
such purposes with good effect, as a
rule, he warbled:

Dope. This is Mr.. -- of the -

No use Mr.. -" came the reply

This was over the limit for the phone,
and with swapping sound the fuse
burned out, the bell cracked and an
odor of burning parafine lined insula
ton filled the room. The man of many
lines of business ducked, and making
a swoop for the street, borrowed 10
