In an action for damages for the de- struction of an orchard of fruit trees by fire, the measure of damages is not the cost of replacing the trees, and the value of the care and labor bestowed on the de- stroyed trees before the burning, but the value of destroyed trees at date of fire.

Stoner vs. Texas & P. Ry. Co. Su- preme Court of Louisiana. 11 Sauth. Rep. 875. Passing of Title on Shipment of Goods. The general rule is that a common car- rier is the agent of either or both con- signor and consignee, and may be made responsible to either, depending upon the circumstances of the case. The question of ownership of the goods is another and distinct question. Ordinarily the owner- ship of the goods in the shipper ceases upon the shipment and transmission ol the bill ot lading, unless, under special cir- cumstances, the right of stoppagein tran- situ is resorted to. The consignment so completely passes the title to the con- signee that he can sell to arrive, pledge or hypothecate bv a transfer of the bill of lading. He can maintain replevin or trespass in regard to the goods. It will at once be seen that the question of agency for transportation is one entirelj- separate and distinct from that of the ownership.
