That in the case of shipments in private cars, which are subject to equalization of empty mileage, and also of fruits and vegetables, live poultry and other shipments custom- iarily reconsigned upon instructions i of the consignor. a telegraphic notice i of the diversion shall be sent to the consignor by the carrier responsible therefor.
