LAWFIXING WAGES KILLED
corRT OF APPEALS DECLARES THAT
MUNICIPAL CONTRACTORS ARE
NOT BOUND BY IT

ALBANY Feb 25-The Court Of Appeals to-day
decided that the law providing that contractors
performing work municipal or other pubic CON
4rzcfs shall pay the rate OF wages prevailing IN he
locality where the work is performed Is uncon-
sstutional and in disposing OF tho question settled
o number of disputes which have arisen between
contractors and the authorities Of New-York CITY
;nvolving the payment Of S.o000oe. The deelSioh
of the court affects every part OF the State where
rrtljc contract work is performed II rendered
sn the case Of William J. Rogers a contractor
against Bird : Coler. controller OF New-AoTk CITY
and involved the sum OF s2.s63. which the con-
-roller withheld from the contractor on a con-
tract he performed for New-York City because he
had failed 10 comply with the prevailing rate OF
wages"
The law was passed in 1897. and provided that
contractor performing public work should pay hls
zvorkmen al a rate which shall not he less than
the nrevailing rate for a days work in the same
7rade or occupation in the locality" Unless the
contractor complied with that provision the au-
iaorites were directed 10 withhold the payment
of moneys due him on the contract
The Court Of Appeals declares the law unconsu-
futional by vote of TO 2
Judge O'Brien wrote the prevailing and Chief
Judge Parker the dissenting opinion. Judge Lam
don also wrote an opinion on the unconstitutional
.ty OF the law
nudge o'Brien holds that the law is unconstitu-
5onal
First-Because II permits and requires the ex-
psnditure Of the money Of a city or that OF The
local property owner for other than city purposes
Second-Becanse il inv2des the rights of liberty
end property in that il denies 10 the city and the
contractor tho right TO agree with their employees
upon the measure of their compensation and CON-
rels them in all cases to pay arbitrary and uni
form rate. which is expressed in vague language,
difficult to define or ascertain and subject 70 con-
ktant change from artificial causes.
Third-BecaUse IL virtually confscates all prop
-erty rights Of The contractor under his contract
for breach of his engagement 10 the statute.
He says the contention that the contractor did
high enough wages would mean, II 2p-
proved. that the taxpayer would find the cost OF
every publis Improve ulent made greater. He also
contends that the law would operate against
skilled workmen, or else give them the same pay
as skilled WoTkmen get, and compel the taxpayer
70 nav for il. The contention OF Mr.. Rogers
for 50 ssS is said that claims worth s60o000o
hang on the decision.
Judge Parker writes a long dissenting opinion, IN
which he contends that the State or municipality
as proprietor has right 10 pay such wages as il
chooses or dictate that its agent the contractor,
must do so
