The carrier shall execute the instructions issued to him by whomever is entitled to do so, pursuant to the provisions of Article (294) above, unless the carriage conditions prohibit the same, or unless it is impossible for the carrier to execute such instructions, or if execution thereof would cause a disturbance in the traffic, or if the value of the item carried is not sufficient to cover the expenses incurred by the carrier due to execution of the instructions. In all such cases, the carrier shall notify the person who issued the new instructions of his abstention from execution and the reason for such abstention. The carrier shall not be liable for said abstention, unless it is unreasonably withheld.
