RAILROAD REPORTS

GULF, C. & S. F. Ry. Co. v. DARBY et al.

(Court of Civil Appeals of Texas, Feb. 5, 1902.)

[67 S. W. Rep. 129.]

Failure to Deliver Goods-Destruction by Storm-Conversion.t Where a railway company received a car load of wheat for transportation, and, owing to delay in carriage and delivery at the point of destination, it was still in possession of the company, when a large part of it was destroyed by an unusual storm, the company is not liable for conversion of the wheat so destroyed.

Same-Same-Same.

Where a railroad company received a car load of wheat for transportation, and while in the company's possession a large portion of it was destroyed by a storm, and the company recovered a portion of the wheat and retained it an unreasonable time, the company is liable for conversion of the wheat so recovered and retained.

On Motion for Rehearing.

Same-Notice to Consignee‡—Breach of Contract-Pleading.

Where, in an action against a railway company to recover the value of a car load of wheat which was shipped over the road and not delivered, the petition does not mention a contract to notify the consignee of the receipt of the wheat at its destination, or allege a breach of such condition, plaintiff cannot recover on the ground of such breach.

Appeal from Lampasas county court; D. C. Thomas, Judge.

Action by Darby & Cauthen against the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railway Company. From a judgment for plaintiffs, defendant appeals. Reversed.

Ballinger Mills and J. W. Terry, for appellant.
Walter Acker, for appellees.

FISHER, C. J. This is an action by appellees against the railway company to recover the value of a car load of wheat shipped by appellees over appellant's road from the town of Lometa, in Lampasas county, to the city of Galveston, which, it was alleged, by reason of the negligence of the defendant, was never delivered to the appellees or the consignee at the place of destination. Appellees recovered the full value of the car load of wheat. The testimony shows that there was a few days' delay in transporting the wheat to Galveston, and in keeping the same by the carrier at that point before the disastrous storm that occurred there on September 7, 1900, by which most of the wheat in the car was destroyed. After the storm a part of the wheat in the car was recovered, and it was retained in possession of the railway company for *See generally, note appended to Spence v. Norfolk & W. R. Co., 2 Am. & Eng.
