cause or effect between the act or the omission and the damage; the
latter must be the direct result of one of the first two. As the
decision of March 22, 1881, said, it is necessary that the damages
result immediately and directly from an act performed culpably and
wrongfully; 'necessarily presupposing a legal ground for
imputability.' " (Decision of October 29, 1887.)

alleges it." (ScÕvola, Jurisprudencia del Código Civil, vol. 6, pp.
551, 552.)

displacement of the crosspiece or the failure to replace it. This
produced the event giving occasion for damages·that is, the
sinking of the track and the sliding of the iron rails. To this event,
the act of the plaintiff in walking by the side of the car did not
contribute, although it was an element of the damage which came
to himself. Had the crosspiece been out of place wholly or partly
through his act or omission of duty, that would have been one of the
determining causes of the event or accident, f or which he would
have been responsible. Where he contributes to the principal
occurrence, as one of its determining factors, he can not recover.
