ARCHITECTS MUST SUE,
Justice Bnrrett Denies Their Ap-
pIicRtion on City HILL Pinns.

Application was made to Justice Bar
rett In Supreme Court Chambers to-
day for peremptory writ OF mandamus
to compel the Commission appointed to
examine the plans for the new City
Hall to either make a selection or re-
turn the plans.
After the plans were submitted, the
Legislature passed a law repeating that
WHICH authorized the building in City
Hall Park. This new law leaves the
old Commission without power.
The architects claims that they had a
contract with the city which could not
be abroGated by the Legislature JUS
tice Barrett agreed with this proposi-
tion, but said that he could not en-
force by mandamus contract which
had become wholly imperative as far
as the city was concerned. This. how
ever, did not deprive the architects OF
any rights they might have under their
contract with the city. For such rights,
he said. they had a remedy by an
action at law. and not mandamus
proceeding. He therefore denied the
motion.
