TON RESTRAINING TIE CITY FROM PAY
ING MONEY TO THE INEBIN,TEs' HOME.
Judge Cullen gave a decision yesterday deny
ing the application for a temporary injunction to
restrain the city from paying 10 per cent OF the
excise moneys to the Inebriates' Home at Fort
Hamilton The Injunction sought in the suit
begun by Alfred T. White and General c. T.
Christensen to test the legality of the law OF
1877 providing for the payments. IL was the re-
suit Of a conference between the Mayor and the
friends OF high license last spring. and the pro-
ceedng was a friendly against the municipal
authorities The Home was co-defendant and 1t
sought by the suit to recover s52LVO already
paid to the institution. The was argued be-
fore Judge Cullen on July a. 1t was alleged In be-
half of the plaintiffs that not only was the law
unconstitutional in violating the clause prohibiting
the gift of public money 10 private institution
but also that 1t had been repealed by the Con-
solidation Act of 1883. The injunction was sought
to prevent the payment Of any money TO the
Home pending the trial of the suit The an
nual payments now amount to 10000.
In denying the motion for an Injunction Judge
Cullen said that the constitutonalty Of the statu-
moneys to the defendant would seem to be up
