This was a bill In equity, tiled by complainants,
asking for an injunction to reslraiu the said
htewart, and tbe city, from executing a contract
for supplying coal for the l'kiladclphiaUitt Works
for the year lbbn. The complainants allege tbat
under an act of Assembly the City Councils have
control over ull the Departments, including
the (Jus Works; tlmt thero was an act of Assembly
requiring all contracts with defendants to be
given in conformity to ordinances of Counolls,
and tbat under sueh act an ordinance his been
passed leimitiiag tho defendunts to advertise for
proaosala for supplies; that in this case a con -tract
for three thousand tons tjf coal is about to
be given to Mr. Hays without proposals having
tirst been invited.
Tbe object of this bill i to put a stopper on
the action of tbe majority of the Uas Trustees, in
awarding a contract, to take effect prospectively,
at a higher rate than the present price ot coal.
The case will be argued on Saturday,
