Corporation Counsel Rives in an opinion rem
dered yesterday to James L. Wells, secretary Of
the Armory Board, states that the board may
take the building of the new Goth Regiment
Armory from Horgan & SlatteTy. the Tammany
architects. The amount allowed for the build
ing $450,00O, and the amount Of Horgan d
Slattery's specifications made the bidders low

November % 1901, and plans and specifications
had been prepared the advertisement published
in The City Record" and the contract awarded
TO Morgan & Slattery. In his opinion Mr. Rives
says:
In my opinion, the contract is now at end,
and has ceased to be binding the city and the
Board OF Armory Commissioners because of the
failure of Horgan & Slattery TO perform the
agreements imposed them by It, A contract
for architects services in relation to building
the of which is limited to $450,OOO, is Ger
tainly not performed by the preparations of
plans and specifications for building the cost
of which. including the architects services, ap-
proXimates 100000.
advise you that you may disregard this con-
tract and proceed with the erection Of an
armOry for the Goth Regiment under proper
resolution to be adopted by your board.
