Hartford. Feb. i P)-.A brief of considerable length has been sub mitted to Judge Jennings of the su- pcrior court by Prof. Albert Levitt of tcddmg setting forth his claim for q writ of alternative mandamus to compel the attorney general of the state to institute court pro- Cccdngs to ou5t the public utilities commission from office, or show cause why such proceedings should not he instituted.
 The brief is said to be an clabor- ation of the argument made by Prof. Levitt to Judge Jennings about 10 days ago in his reply to a return. considered as a brief, filed by the at torney general and argued very briefly by Deputy Attorney General Ernest l.. Averill.
 Prof. Levitt charges the public utilities commission with neglect of duty in failing to order the New Haven railroad to eliminate grade crossings. The attorney general $ brief, which is partly a defense of the commission holds that it would be contrary to public policy to bring proceedings to oust without spe- Cific complaint
 Prof. Levitt says the attorney generals brief is beside the point, and that the statute law compels the attorney general to bring custer pro- ceedings upon the petition in writ ing of 100 electors of the state. Such petition was filed with the attor- Iney general.
