    (Argued July 13, 1921;
    decided July 14, 1921.)
    Appeal from an order of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in the first judicial department, entered July 1, 1921, which affirmed an order of Special Term denying a motion for a peremptory writ of mandamus to compel the respondents herein to make and transmit to the board of elections of the city of New York the notice as provided in section 293 of the Election Law, which notice shall include the number of aldermen to be voted for in the city of New York at the coming general election, on the basis of apportionment contained in section 19 of the Greater New York charter, as amended by the Laws of 1916, chapter 540, instead of in accordance with the apportionment contained in chapter 670 of the Laws of 1921. The relator in this proceeding attacks the constitutionality of chapter 670 of the Laws of 1921 upon ground that the legislature repassed the act before the expiration of the fifteen days allowed to the mayor of the city of New York to consider and return the same under section 2 of article 12 of the State Constitution.
