504 ARTICLE 14

Who has given value in good faith, relying upon the description therein
of the goods, for damages caused by the non-receipt by the carrier, or a con-
necting carrier, of all or part of the goods, or their failure to correspond
with the description thereof in the bill at the time of its issue.

If, however, the goods are described in a bill merely by a statement of
marks or labels upon them or upon packages containing them, or by a
statement that the goods are said to be goods of a certain kind or quantity,
or in a certain condition, or it is stated in the bill that packages are
said to contain goods of a certain kind or quantity, or in a certain con-
dition, or that the contents or condition of the contents of packages are
unknown, or words of like import are contained in the bill, such statements,
if true, shall not make liable the carrier issuing the bill, although the goods
are not of the kind or quantity, or in the condition which the marks or labels
upon them indicate, or of the kind or quantity or in the condition they
were said to be by the consignor. The carrier may also, by inserting in the
bill the words "shipper's load and count," or other words of like purport,
indicate that the goods were loaded by the shipper, and the description of
them made by him; and if such statement be true, the carrier shall not be
liable for damages caused by the improper loading .or by the non-receipt
or by the misdescription of the goods described in the bill.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 24. 1912, sec. 24. 1910, ch. 336, sec. 24 (p. 39).

24. If goods are delivered to a carrier by the owner or by a person
whose act in conveying the title to them to a purchaser for value in good
faith would bind the owner and a negotiable bill is issued for them, they
can not thereafter, while in the possession of the carrier, be attached by
garnishment or otherwise, or be levied upon under an execution, unless the
bill be first surrendered to the carrier or its negotiation enjoined. The
carrier shall in no such case be compelled to deliver the actual possession of
the goods until the bill is, surrender ed to him or impounded by the court.
See art. 83, sec. 57.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 25. 1912, sec. 25. 1910, ch. 336, sec. 25 (p. 39).

25. A creditor whose debtor is the owner of a negotiable bill shall be
entitled to such aid from courts of appropriate jurisdiction by injunction
and otherwise in attaching such bill, or in satisfying the claim by means
thereof, as is allowed at law or in equity in regard to property which can
not readily be attached or levied upon by ordinary legal process.
See art. 83, sec. 58.

An. Code, 1924, sec. 26. 1912, sec. 26. 1910, ch. 336, sec. 26 (p. 39).

26. (Negotiable Bill Must State Charges for Which Lien Is Claimed).
If a negotiable bill is issued the carrier shall have no lien on the goods
therein mentioned, except for charges on those goods for freight, storage,
demurrage and terminal charges, and expenses necessary for the preserva-
tion of the goods or incident to their transportation subsequent to the date
of the bill, unless the bill expressly enumerates other charges for which a
lien is claimed. In such case there shall also be a lien for the charges
enumerated, so far as they are allowed by law and the contract between the
consignor and the carrier.
