MACMONNIES MAY
BE SUED BY CITY
Park Commissioner Ward to Ask
Completion of Fountain or
Return of $4,000.

Unless Frederick MacMonnies, the
sculptor, makes a definite statement re-
garding the progress of the Angelina
Crane fountain for City Hall Park,
Park Commissioner Cabot Ward will
begin suit for the return Of the S10,-
OOO MacMonnies received when the
contract for the $4,000 fountain was
awarded him five years ago and the
contract may then be given to another
sculptor.
This was the purport Of communi-
cation which has just been sent by
Commissioner Ward to MacMonnies.
1t was on January q that The Tribune
told exclusively Of the long delay in
the designing Of the fountain. When
the matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the Park Commissioner that
day he said he would take steps to find
out tho cause of the delay and to get
some satisfactory statement, in the
mean time taking up the matter with
the Corporation Counsel as there was
no time limit t. the contract.
At the Park Department it was said
yesterday that the Corporation Counsel
had held that the fact that Mr. Mac
Monies was so busy with other memo
rials-which was one Of the reasons he
advanced for the delay in a communi-
cation recently received by former Park
Commissioner Henry Smith-was no
reason why the fountain for the city
should be delayed.
Mr.. Smith was president OF the Park
Board when the contract was awarded
TO Mr.. MacMonnies. He said il was
impracticable to set time limit for the
completion Of a work OF art. The
sculptor has studio in Paris and an
other in a suburb OF Paris.
Mr.. Wards letter also refers to the
$4,000 insurance policy on the sculp-
tors life, on which the city is paying
