The application made some time ago by John b
NTcDonald contractor for the Rapid Transit Tun-
ueI for a writ of maudamus TO compel Controller
fir,ut to pay vouchers amounting to $ido0o0 for
work done in putting electric ducts in the sub

tended that the work should be considered as a

upheld by the Board of Rapid Transit Commis-

they were presented Controller Grout refused 10

ALmoyY IN NrERLocrToRT DECREE.
a H HUSrlEL ADMITS THE DECISION Is a GOOD
oNE-sAYs THE LAW HAS GL4ARTNG
DEFECTS

Justice Scott IN the Supreme Court has handed
down a decision regarding the granting Of alimony
along with interlocutory decree Of divorce. The
case was one Of Carley against Carley, the wife
suing The Justice says
The effect of the interlocutory Judgment is TO
terminate the operation of the order for alimony
pendente lite II would be manifestIy unrea-
sonable 10 suppose that It the intention Of
the legislature 10 deprive d wife Of support for
three months between the entry Of the interlocu-
tory Judgment and the entry OF the fnaI judg-
ment. although the result of the trial has been
to establish her right a divorce and to perma-
neut almouy. The code. : amended, provides
that the Interlocutory Judgment shall contain GER
tain provisions. but it does not provide that no
other provisions may be contained therein This
leaves the court free insert such provisions re-
suecting aIlmony and the custody of children
as will promote the ends of justice pending the
entry of the hnal decree. Otherwise, wife would
be in a worse position after her right TO a divorce
had been established by evidence and the Judgment
of the court than she was before the trial. while
her ultimate success remained uncertain.
The decree contained provision for the woman's
custody Of her son, for her receipt Of SS a
week aIimouy, and her resumption of her maiden
name. Augusta Barrett
4 H. Hummel said yesterday that the decision
was a gord one. under all circumstances the
husband was supposed in law to support the wife.
and it would be a violation OF this right. and an
injustice II the wife were deprived Of this sup
port for the three months the entry OF the
interlocutory decree and the tual Judgment. There
was evidence from time 10 time that the law under
which the iuterlocutory DEGREES were granted was
