  We report results of magnetization, zero field resistivity and
magnetoresistance measurements in ferromagnetic Heusler alloy Co$_2$TiSn. There
is a striking change in the character of electron transport as the system
undergoes the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transition. In the paramagnetic
state the nature of the electron transport is like that of a semiconductor and
this changes abruptly to metallic behaviour at the onset of ferromagnetic
ordering. Application of external magnetic field tends to suppress this
semiconducting like transport leading to a negative magnetoresistance which
reaches a peak in the vicinity of Curie temperature. Comparison is made with
the similar unusual behaviour observed in other systems including UNiSn and
manganites.
