J. G. COLLINS ASKS FOR MANDAMUs.
Would Strike Out Parts of Reply to Suit to
Recover Highway Superintendcncy.

James G. Collins, who superint endent of the
Department of Highways from 1902 to 1904, asked
Justice Davis. of the Supreme Court, yesterday for
a writ of mandamus 10 strike out certain parts of
the answer of George F. Scannell. his successor in
office to Collins's action for reinstatement The
were 'scandaous' in that they charged criminal
acts (which Herbert c. Smyth. counsel for Collins.
said would prejudice the minds of the Jury in the
case for reinsta tement.
One action by Collins to get back his old job.
from which he was removed by Borough President
Ahearn, and s32 600 back salary has already been
tried The Supreme Court and the Appellate Dvi-
sion decided against the plaintiff, but the Court of
Appeals reversed both courts and upheld the SUIT
Scannell then obtained permission from Justice
Fitzgerald TO intervene In the and added to
the defence Ahearn the answer to which Col
lns objected.
in the answer Scannell says that Collins while In
Office violated the Civil Service laws by placing in
jobs relatives and friends replace either
dead Of the Jobs for other causes. The new
men, IT was cha reed. served the city under false
names. MI Smyth brought out that President
Ahearu IN his first answer never brought these
charges and that II there had been any charges
existing against Collins they should have been
brought before the latters removal. Mr. Collins
received such opportunity to defend himself.
Justice Davis reserved decision.
