was not constructed from the plans
drawn by the architects.
The plans and specifications were
drawn under the authority of the
board of 1911 and provided for a
building to cost $150,000, to be so
planned that it could be erected in
sections Only one section was
erected. there being but $4,000 avail
able for the purpose. Failing to secure
legislation for issuing bonds for the
additional sections, the freeholders
held UP the architects bill and were
later sued for the amount. judgment
being rendered against the county.
Subsequently the architects agreed
to a settlement at the original figure,
minus the interest and court costs,
and the finance committee voted to
accept the offer, but later withdrew
the resolution upon the advice of
County Counsel. Jones that the case
could undoubtedly be won on ap-
peal
Freebooter William Cardwell raised
the question yesterday as to whether
1t would not be unwise to risk the adj
ditional expense an appeal would in
volve, and in the discussion which
followed Freebooter Malta remarked
that the point was not so much in
winning the case to save the money
as 1t was the danger of establishing
a bad precedent, which would lead
architects. in the future to expect
large fees under similar circum-
stances. Mr.. Jones, he said, had
showed the committee where he be-
-lieved the lower court had erred in
its Judgment The additional ex-
pense of an appeal would be only
nominal any way, he said.
Director Evans said there was
likely to be d similar, case in connec-
ton with the bill of County Con-
sulting Engineer James Owen for
drawing plans and specifications two
years ago for the proposed Belleville
bridge.
In that case the engineers were
Authorized to plan a bridge costing
approximately $4,000, whereas when
found to be $2S5,O00. Because of the
excessive figure all of the bids were
thrown out. The county, he said,
would take the position that the en-
gineers had no right to draw plans
for "a bridge costing s2S5.000 when
asked for plans of one for only $i75,-
900. ~ think the freeholders would
be derelict.'n he said. ''if they did not
prosecute fhis case in order to find
where they stand, for there is nothing
to prevent other architects and en-
gineers taking 4 chance.
