The statute authorizing intervention in such cases contemplates only the trial of the right of property or of the claimant\u2019s interest therein. When determined in his favor, the court is directed to \u201cmake such order as may be necessary to protect his rights\u2019\u2019 (Mansf.

    "head_matter": "Jefferson v. Dunavant.\nDecided April 12, 1890.\nAttachment \u2014 Intervention of claimant \u2014 Damages for detention.\nThe statute which authorizes the intervention of a claimant of property attached (Mansf. Dig., section 358) contemplates only a trial of the right of property; damages for detention of the property are recoverable in a separate action.\nAPPEAL from Mississippi Circuit Court.\nJ. E. Riddick, Judge.\nIn 1882 Dunavant bought a mule from Grandison Boyd. Before delivery of possession, the mule was replevied from Boyd by Jefferson. The replevin suit was decided in favor \u2022of Boyd. Jefferson then sued on a note given for the purchase money of the mule and obtained an order of attachment to enforce his vendor\u2019s lien on the mule. Dunavant intervened, claiming the property under his purchase. The issue was determined in Dunavant\u2019s favor, and the mule delivered to him. Thereafter he instituted an action against Jefferson to recover damages for detention of the mule. Judgment for plaintiff. The question is, whether the trial of Dunavant\u2019s interplea in the attachment suit bars a subsequent suit for damages?\nCompton & Compton and John J. Hornor for appellant.\n1. The judgment in the replevin suit by Boyd was a bar to this suit. Mansf. Dig., sec. 5145. Appellee being an interpleader in that suit is estopped by the judgment. Wells, Res Adj., secs. 248-9, 251; Herman on Estoppel, p. 165; 37 N.Y., 59. Whatever is within the scope of the pleadings, is settled by the judgment. Wells, Res Adj., sec. 252.\n2. On the interplea, the statute puts in issue all the rights of the interpleader, title and damages. Mansf. Dig., secs. 346, 356. The judgment was conclusive not only as to matters litigated but as to any and all matters that might have been litigated. 58 N. Y., 176; Mansf. Dig., 358; 85 N, Y., 427; 94 N. Y., 424.\nH. M. McVeigh for appellee.\nThe title to the mule was the only issue in the interplea. No damages were claimed. To render a matter res adjudicata, four things are necessary: (1) identity of things sued for; (2) identity of cause of action; (3) identity of persons and parties; (4) identity of quality in persons for or against whom claim is made. 2 Bouv., p. 467; 3. Kan., 390; 49 Ga.,412; 94 U. S., 423; 65 Me., 308; 28 Ohio, 596; 45 Ind., 489."
