Railroad Irresponsibility.-The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has affirmed the judgment of a lower court, in the case of McMasters vs. the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and decides that when freight is shipped on the railroad to a station where the company has no warehouse erected, the parties interested in the freight cannot recover from the railroad company if the freight be lost after it is landed at the station—it being then the duty of the parties to whom it is shipped to look after it. This case is said to be the first of the kind that has yet been brought before the Supreme Court of the State.-Altoona Sun
