Both plaintiffs' claims dismissed: the second plaintiff, though owner, lacked the status of named consignee and therefore no right to sue under the applied conventions and Orders; the first plaintiff lacked privity/special contract with the carrier and Article 14 does not preserve concurrent claims once consignee's rights arose, so no entitlement to substantial damages.
