This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 Excerpt: ...the ship's ballast, this would be an error in management for which the Harter Act 1. 179 U. S. 69, 45 L. Ed. 90. 2. 196 U. S. 589, 49 L. Ed. 610..Care of the cargo. would afford a defence, but that the unloading of the cargo was not management or navigation. A failure to work the pumps, although causing damage to the cargo, is an error in management.3 A negligent failure to ventilate the cargo is negligence in care of the cargo, and is not excused under the Harter Act.4 So, where the master retained oil in the vessel's bilges, for the purpose of saving it for its owner, and did not pump it out as he might have done, this was not an error in management, and the ship was liable for damage done thereby to other goods.6 If the shipper describes the goods as of a particular character and the carrier gives them the treatment appropriate to that character, the carrier is not liable if damage results. For instance, in The Mississippi,8 stearine was shipped described as "tallow;" it was subjected to weather which would not have damaged tallow, but did damage the shipment in question. It was held that the carrier was not liable. In case cargo is damaged by a cause for which the ship is not responsible, the carrier may recondition, and the cost of the reconditioning will constitute a lien upon the goods.7 3.
