Finally, defendants rely on the provisions of the Linútation Ordinance, 1896; as an answer to the wholɑ of the plaintiffs' claim.

Thea, in their counter-claim, the defen. dante sny (a) that the plaintifs, having delivered 19845 cubic foot only, out of The total of 30,200 feet agreed upon by the rontruct which was to be delivered within five months of contract date, April 16.
