Both gentlemen were very close.
naouthed as to their mission, but Col.
Hildreth seemed very much interest
ed in the supreme court judgships
in the gift of the governor for whom
he stumped the state up and, down
Sideways.
Being asked if he had ambitions
that way he replied that under the
rules no man was obliged to incrim-
mate himself, which modesty on the
gallant colonel's part was appre-
ciated by the little crowd of admir-
ers present. He said he could name
the new judges, but refrained on
account Of the heartburnings such
an announcement would cause among
the array of talent mentioned for
4 2 81 Ff
the jobs.
He also seemed interested in milf
tary matters SO far as the adju-
tant generals position was concern
ed, but being out of the line him
self his listeners cleaned that some
thing along that line "for a friend =
might be the object of his coming to
the Capital City.
Mr.. Doyle confined his remarks
to the great improvements he noted
in Bismarck since his last visit here
ten years ago, and he is glad that he
will have an opportunity to become
better acquainted with us during the
coming session of the legislature,
where he will shine as one Of the
little bunch of Democrats elected to
that body. He is one of the most
jovial fellows who ever served his
country-in politics-and it lis a
great misfortune that his politics
are of such an i'll advised sort--in

Case
William A. Duncan, respondent, v.
Great Northern Railway Co., ap-

William A. Duncan, respondent, ".

pellant.
An inland common carrier is an
insurer against loss of property con-
signed to it for carriage between its
receipt at shipping point and arri-
val at destination except when unac-
companyed by consignor, except from
loss occasioned:
/. By. an inherent defect, vice
or weakness, or spontaneous action
of the property itself. g.. The act
of public enemy of the United
States or of this state. 8. The act
of the law, or, 4. Any irresistible
superhuman cause. 5. And it may
also be assumed that certain acts of
the consignor may exempt the car
rier from liability. RI
2. On proof of delivery of the
prc9 erty to the carrier in sound con-
dition and of its redelivery at the
end of the route in damaged condi-
tion, or a failure to redeliver it, a
sufficient case is made to sustain
recovery for damages or loss by
the shipper.
8. The burden of proof is upon
the carrier to exempt himself from
liability in case of loss or damage
by showing that it was occasioned
by one or more of the exceptions
mentioned under paragraph one.
4. The evidence in the case
shows that quantity of flax was
loaded by the plaintiff and his SER
wants into a car furnished by the
defendants for that purpose; that in
side doors were furnished by the
defendant carrier and used and fas-
tened by appliances provided for that
purpose by defendant in the usual
manner, and that such loss complain
ed of occurred while such flax was
en- route to Duluth, some or all of it
by reason of a small inside door
used for retaining the flax in the
car, hung on hinges at the top, COM
ing open. f.S.
The defendant failed to show that
the door opened by failure on the
part of plaintiff to properly fasten
it. 1t was closed by defendants

conductor at the station where the
leak was discovered, but the inspec-
tor at Duluth reported a leak in
the same place on the arrival of the
car at it's destination. Held, That
the evidence failed to bring the de-
fendant within the exceptions to
the law holding it liable.
5. The shipper inserted in the car,
inside doors for retaining the flax,
such doors being furnished by the
carrier, and supplied with a fasten-
ing device. The evidence showed
that these doors were properly fas-
tened with device so furnished, by
the shipper and assistants, all of
whom were familiar with the use of
such doors and devices. The car
after being SO loaded with these
doors inserted, was receipted for
and the outside doors closed and
sealed by the defendants agents,
who had full opportunity to observe
while closing the outside doors
whether the inside doors were
properly fastened. Held, That, if
they were not properly fastened, in
view of these facts, the carrier is
not relieved from liability for loss
occasioned thereby.
g. Plaintiff showed by himself and
other competent witnesses that the
inside doors referred to were pro-
Sperly closed and fastened with the
device furnished by defendant for
t:lat purpose.
Tho only evidence claimed to Gre
ate a conflict arises from the fact
that few miles after the car had
started on its journey, one of the
inside doors referred to came open
and a quantity of the flax with
which the car was loaded ran out
through the opening so made. Held,
That such door opening may as
readily be attributed to other causes
as to the failure of the shipper to.
properly fasten it, and had the ques-
tion been submitted to a jury, a ver-
dict for defendant based upon the
fact that such door came open in
tlansit eould only have been arrived
at by inference and would have been

jury nndtr thtiacts Of the case, and
that the opening Of the door did not

evidence to cons titute an error on

e, On suhn,..s s:on of all their evil

quested the submission of any facts
