bers q session Of the board Of regents
Of the Agricultural and Mechanical
college and meeting Of the "bulltick
board Nslh
The principal reason for the mssting
Of the regents was 70 accept the new
library building from the contractor,
John NJ. Ellis, Of Minco. Texas The
building originally was TO have cost
sla, $40 dollars and should have been
completed by January l, 1900, the con.
tract calling for a forfeiture of e. per
day for each day after that date that
the building was not completed. De.
spite that fact, Contractor Ellis de-
nands about sa2, 500 from the board
and all efforts to compromise the mat
ter proved futile. The board made
Ellis compromise offer OF sao. 900. but
he held out for g., 500 more, although
the board had not taken out the s5 n
day forfeiture.

cnt except c. J. Benson and they de.

ed rough, thus damaging the structure
The board has been compelled to hold
several meetings since January !, on
account OF Ellis delay and also to pro.
vide an architect for all the extra time.
One portion OF the contract says thai II
any dispute as to settlement shall arise
between Ellis and the regents, that
the matter shall be referred, to
the architect, and whose decision
shall be final. The architect, Mr..
Joseph Foucart, was appealed to and
the board divided the difference be-
tween his figures and Ellis, thus fav.
oring the latter, but no settlement
could be reached.
Contractor Ellis has announced that
he will sue the territory and claims to
have employed Attorney Ames Of Ok.
lahoma City, to prosecute the case.
In regard to this matter q member OF
the regents board said that he would
prefer having the territory sued rather
than pay several thousand dollars more
to Ellis than are due him. In case
Ellis sues, the board will demand the
g. per day forfeiture since January J.,
