Head Matter:
PEOPLE ex rel. COLLINS v. McANENY, President of Borough of Manhattan, et al.
(Supreme Court, Appellate Division, First Department.
March 7, 1913.)
Appeal from Special Term, New York County. Mandamus by the People of the State of New York, on the relation of James G. Collins, against George Mc-Aneny, as President of the Borough of Manhattan, and another, to compel relator’s reinstatement as Superintendent of Highways. From an order directing the issuance of a peremptory writ, defendants appeal. Modified. William E. G. Mayer, of Brooklyn, and Geo. Gordon Battle, of New York City, for appellants. Herbert C. Smyth, of New York City, for respondent.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The order appealed from should be modified, by inserting after the words "city of New York" in the twenty-fourth folio, the words "as of the date of January 1, 1904," and by adding at the end thereof the words, "But in no event beyond the date of the abolition of said office, namely, the 14th day of February, 1910." As so modified, the order is affirmed, with costs to the respondent.
