The boat containing COlegrove and the

would have placed the CoIegrove party

FLYNN WATER CONTRACT coon.
Court Refuses to Review the $1,000, 900
Contract With Jersey City.

OhEAut WIN veTbey SHys
For the third time the New Jersey Supreme
Court has denied an application for a writ OF
certiorari to have Jersey City's water contract
with Patrick H. Flynn reviewed by the Court.
This memorandum was filed with the Clerk OF
the Court yesterday. concerning the second
application OF Dudley Flemming and others:
AT the last February term OF this Court the
above applicants sought to obtain writ OF
certiorari to review the contract made by the
City OF Jersey City with Patrick II. Flynn for a
municipal water supply. The reasons upon
which the application was based were not such
as to Justify the allowance OF the writ and the
application was therefore denied. They now
renew that application on other grounds.
which existed. however. at the time the writ
was originally applied for. The public i'm
portance OF the matter has led us to consider
the merits Of this application without passing
upon the propriety OF the practice adopted.
and the conclusion which we have reached is
that the reasons presented afford no ground
for the allowance OF the writ. The application
is denied"
The Courts action will permit the prosecu-
tion OF tho work Of furn ishing the city with a
new water supply as it is not likely that any
further legal steps will be taken to obstruct It,
nonresident taxpayer might be able to
take the case to the United States Supreme
Sourt. Dut tnere ID Scurcely any prODaDlHty tnat
this will be done.
Mayor Hoos said yesterday that It afforded
him much pleasure to know that the matter
Ia In such shape now that the work OF con-
struction can proceed
The work haa kssu practically suspended
while the certiorari proceedings were pending.
After the 100000 contract was awarded to
Flynn in December last Frederick Spengeman
applied for writ OF certiorari. which was re-
fused by the Court. Then ex-Congressman
Thomas McEwan and his brother. acting for
Dudley d. FlemminR. Frederick Booraem and
others applied for writ. alleging among other
reasons that the temporary contract with the
East Jersey Water Company was more advan-
tageous to the city. and that Flynn would be
unable to obtain control OF tho Rockaway River.
from which the new supply was to be taken.
That application was denied last February. and
the McEwans made new application on the
ground that there had been no competition.
Flynn being the only bidder CORPORATION
Counsel Allan L. McDermott and former Sena-
tor William d. Edwards argued the case for
the city and the McEwan brothers for the ap-
plicants. The result was the decision rendered
