distinctly stated at the time Of the denial These
reasons were that the inspector OF buildings and
the Commissioners had ample grounds to believe
that hts application was Intentionally misleading
to the full purpose for which the proposed build
ing was to be used, and that 1t was actually Mr.
Wards intention to use 1t In part for extensive
stable purposes In such manner as to constitute it
'livery stable" as defined by the building regu-
latiOns. AS Mr.. Ward would hot state on the face
of his application that such was not his Intention
the Commissioners declined to issue an unqualified
permit, which, in their opinion, was sought as q
means OF evadng the law. The qualification is that
this permit Is issued with the stipulation that this
building is not to be used for stable purposes"
