The bills of lading contained the following words: “weight, measure, marks, quality, contents and value
unknown”. It does not clear whether the bags were weighed or not. If yes, did the carrier check the
information in the bill of lading (SS 296, 298 MC). Otherwise, there were no such an information

The bills of lading were signed correctly by the representative of the carrier. (S 296 MC last
paragraph).
