TANGLE OVER LOSSES.
Difficulties Promising Litigation
Arise Over Stephenson Sci
enCe Hall Fire.

Appleton, Wis, Oct. 29.-[SpeciaI. i
Considerable litigation is likely to arise
over the adjustment of the losses to Ste
phenson Science hall. 1t seems that the
contractors nave been paid weekly by
the college authorities, upon the presenta-
ton of certificates signed by the archi-
tect that certain portions Of the work
had been satisfactorily completed. The
total amount thus paid vas $4,000. The
college had secured this accepted work
from loss by fire by policies amounting to
$4,000.
1t is now maintained by the contractors
that this work, being accepted and paid
for by the college, must be considered
as the colleges loss, and they insist that
the insurance be paid to them, together
with any excess amount which may be
found necessary to complete the building
up to its condition before the fire. The
college, on the other hand, claims that
they were responsible for no part of the
building until the whole had been COM
pleted and was accepted. Neither the
contractors nor any of their representa-
tives have appeared before the board of
trustees i'll answer to their demands that
the contractors proceed immediately with
the rebuilding, and it is rumOred that
nothing will be done until spring. The
college authorities are determined to push
matters hurriedly, and have already been
seeking legal advice. Ex-senator Phile-
tus Sawyer of Oshkosh has been confer
ring with them today and Isaac Ste
~phenson is expected here tomorrow.

in the great exodus from that island soon
after the great famine, when nearly 30O,-
