Supreme Court Limit* Amount of
Liability for Lo*t Baggage at
$100 Per Passenger.
WASHINGTON, April 7. -The Su
preme Court today handed down a
decision in the cases brought against
a Western railroad for damages be
cause of the loss of a trunk. The
railroad officials asserted that they
were only called upon to pay dam
age up to the $100 limit, as they sold
tickets with that understanding, but
the owner claimed full damage for
the loss of his trunk and its contents,
amounting to several thousands.
The court upheld the contention of j
the attorneys for the railroad and
allowed damages for $100, and in the
decision stated that where no valua
tion is placed on baggage by the i
owners the railroad companies can |
be held for only $10t>, as provided i
by the tickets, but that if the trunk i
is marked at a greater value and- ac- j
cepled at the high value by the roads, j
then they are bound by the higher1
valuation. 1
The railroad officials ar jubilant at
the decision, as cases involving thou ;
sands of dollars are pending for lost
trunks.
