This is an appeal from an order which awarded to the relators a peremptory writ of mandamus, requiring the board of commissioners of electrical subways of the city of Brooklyn to approve a plan, and grant a permit to the New York & Eastern Telegraph & Telegraph Company to erect and suspend telegraph and telephone wires from and along the Kings County Elevated

The order should be affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements.
