An Important Legal Question.
When the Central Rhilroad dopot
at Savan nhit, Georgia, was destroyed
by 1i1re last November, largo (unnti
ties of Cottoln anld other valiuble
freight Wero consumi11ed w%ith the
building. Daiages were paid to all
the owners of the potton excei)t
those who had their property ()v
cred by insurance. The insurance
compnlilics promptly paid the
amounts of their policies, but made
a demand on the railroad officials
for ia reiibursement of the money.
This was met by a refusal, and
several suits have boenl instituted by
the insuranco people against the
Cent ral Rilroad Company of Geor
gia to cw force iduinification. Tie
Not th America Insurmnee Company
of Philadelphia, is one of the com,i
panics in quiestion. It lias paid
losses onl cotton coniumed by fire to
tl)e itmotunt, of %12:000, for ibe ro,
covery of which three suits iave
beenl brought in tihe United States
Court at Savannahl. Thie railroad
contends that it is only liable for
losses over its road when there is no
ifsurance, and that in case of 3insu
ralec thme loss nmist fall on time In
surance companlies which have been
ai<l for uidetaking the risk. On
the other han:'d it is claime-1 f.hat
the liability of railroads is not
decreased where the loss of parties
fol:Nwarding freight iats been cover d
by insurance ; but that in all cases 1
the railroads must he the final losers
and can be compelled to pay dmia
ges for freights destroyed while in
their possssion. This legal view,
it is isserted, hits been confirmed by
several State and Supreme Courts
Alld by the United States Courts.
