The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court yes

appeal from the order of Justice OGornah oehSins
a motion for a peremptory writ of mandamus Oh

the order and directs that the WIFI issGe'
Justice Hatch writes the opinion of the court ne
describes the provisions of the contract between
Mr.. Mcdonald and the city. which was entered into
February q, 1900 The contract contained no pro-
vision for the construction of any ductS' ways VI
conduits for electric wires Subsequently, the pids
changed to provide for SUCH ductS' anu
this required that the excavation be made eight
inches wider The original contract however pro-
vided that the cost of the equipment OF the ROAD
must be borne by the contractor, the Guy Only
paying for construction. Payment for TINS extra
work was resisted, the ground that laSihuch
as the ducts were be used in supplying the
electricity that would be employed in operating
trains they really part of the equipment
of the road and could not be included In the "orh
of construction.
Justice Hatch said that it cannot be doubted that
both statute and contract contemplated that the
Rapid Transit Commissioners should exercise ex-

was the only practicable power to be used the

commission. The city, moreover, has the absolute
title the whole structure and Justice Hatch SAID
that it seems absurd to him to assert that the
contractor could have any ownership in any part
of it, whether ducts ordinary wall Inc ducts
