Sea Wall Holds Out.
That the death list did not approach

two cause.-the strength OF the Gal

which residents OF the coastal plains

Baggage Must BE Insured

Under a law enacted by the last
congress railroads are responsible for
the full value of baggage lost or dam
aged in transit and to meet this the
railroads have adopted a new regula-
ton for the handling of baggage. I'm
der the new regulations passengers
checking baggage from one state to
another must sign a declaration of
value before receiving a check and
must pay for insurance if the value
exceeds 500 at the rate of 10 cents
for every additional 500 in valuation
and no baggage will be forwarded un-
less such declaration is signed. This
provision is for the protection Of the
railroads which in case Of loss will
reimburse according to the declara-
tion.
The enforcement OF this regulation
will take time at the baggage window
and travellers will find il TO their ad-
vantage to get down TO the station
early enough TO observe the formal
tiles.
