Description

Excerpt from Regulation of Foreign Commerce by the Interstate Commerce Commission Insurance. Contracts of insurance are daily made covering the value of the goods and assuring the owner their safe transportation (inland and marine), and their ultimate delivery. This system of through insurance is probably the most comprehensive system 'of insurance extant to-day, covering, as it does, all character of risks and damages on merchandise over the inland carriers, land and water, during transit, in the warehouse, or on shipboard or intermediary lighters, - the system providing for the ultimate sub rogation of the interests of the owners of the property against any of the respective carriers. This is another instance where all the parties concerned in a through shipment endeavor to tie the transac tion together in its entirety, so that there shall be no intermediate steps where the one insurance or responsibility has ceased before the other attaches.
