The hearing upon the order OF the supreme court
To show cause on the part OF the SUPERVISORS why
they should not convene under mandamus ana lay
out the county in Assembly districts according 10
law, came UP in the Supreme Court before Juage
Bartlett yesterday. The REALTORS all residents OF the
With Assembly District composed Of the Seventh
Nineteenth and Twentieth wards, were represented

+. E. Barnard The Supervisors were represented by
John B. Meyenborg, counsel OF the Board; Corpora
ton Counsel jerks and Thomas F.. Pearsal.
Mr. Johnson answered ready for the REALTORS, VINO
claim that the Supervisors divided the county iho
Assembly districts unfairly In their recent action.
The With District has population Of 102, e0o, while
other districts have less than Onethrd OF this They
also declare the reapportionment invalid because II
deprives thousands Of voters Of representation, ana
because the lines Of the districts Cross or o'iue
towns, as the Aldermen had no right to alter Town
lines as done by their recent actisn In rearrahg
ing ward boundaries.
The defendants were not ready, but agreed to put
Ia their answers by Friday 80 as to be ready 70 argue
the case BY August -. Mr.. johnson said that nc
would prefer to argue the Mt once but II 1t was
to 70 over until next week, he thought the defendants
should consent to a short respite for the Gcnerai
Term and that there shonld be no delay.
Judge Bartlett suggested going to tho Genera
