court sustained the validity of the
initial carrier for losses sustained IN
,he shipment of berries that were
not forwarded with reasonable dis
patch to the New York market. The
lass by the delay was properly as
sessed, the court held. on the initial
carriers. The berries came In six
hours late and failed TO reach New
York in advance of the early Satur-
day morning wholesale market, which
opened at / a. m.
Judge Urner also delivered the opin-
ion IN the case of the Peninsula EN-
change of Maryland VS., the New York,
Philadelphia and Norfolk Railroad
Company a cross appeal involving the
same state of facts as IN the above
case In which the point was raised
that the claim for damages to the ber-
ries and loss by delay to delivery on
the part of the railroad was not valid
because the claim was not made with
in the time specified by the federal
statute; that Is, within four months
after a reasonable time for delivery
Tic Court of Appeals held that ar
the company, in answer 10 the claim
had answered that no damage had
been done the berries by the delay
and therefore there was no injury
done to the shippers, had thereb,
waived in considering the claim, the
Limitation OF the law. Judgment be
low against the Produce Exchange
was. therefore, reversed, with cost

REQUIREMENTS
Children Who Seek Employ
ment Hereafter viii Be
Affected
THREE MONTHS TO
PERFECT THE SYSTEM

At the meeting of the Child Labor
Commission yesterday afternoon, at
which the newly appointed inspector,
William J. Gibbons, and Superinten-
dent of Schools George ". Twitmyer
were present, il was declared that no
attempt will be made by the Child
Labor Commission TO interfere with
either the children employed or the
employers OF child labor at this time,
but the new child labor requirements
will be carried out TO the letter IN
the cases, of all children who seek
employment from this time on.
II was stated at the meeting that IL
would require three months to per-
feet the system and that the new law
would be applied to this city first, be-
cause more children are employed
here than in other section of the
strate. For instance. child labor is not
largely employed in Sussex county ex-
cept In canning season. ut is not the
desire of the commission to disturb
either the employees or the children
except when they take advantage OF
the law" is the way one member ex-
pressed the attitude anent the enforce
ment of the new law.
The new certificates for the child
rem will be issued by persons appoint
ed in the county by Superintendent
T.. l.. Cross and in the city by super
intendent OF the Public Schools George
w. Twitmyer. Or. Twitmyer has moi
yet appointed the persons who viii
issue the certificates and when ques.
toned upon the subject this morning
he said the appointment would be
made in a day or two. He had already
interviewed two of the commissioner
upon the subject Dr. Twitmyer saiC
he had some one in mind Tor the ap
pointment. but would be governed en-
tireiy by the wishes of the commission
upon the matter. If the persons h'
had in mind is not acceptable to tn
commission DR.. Twitmyer win ap
point some one else.
In speaking Of the mater Or. Twit
myer said: These certificates vii
be issued only on matter of record.
Explaining this remark. the cit
superintendent declared that hereto
fore magistrates had issued certih
Gates. declaring Jnat the children wer
q sufficient age 10 be employed. 10
IS or 90 cents. when as matter O
fact. in many cases. the school recor
showed that the child was ineligibl
to be employed even under the old ag
requirement
There will be none of that now,
he said: "The school record an
that alone. will establish the age of
child" DR.. Twitmyer declared ther
We're dozens of cases "eretofor
where false certificates Of age wer
sworn to and issued.
