The original plan was to build four
structures, but it was found that there
was not money enough and the plans
were changed and but three were built
Mr.. Kletting claims that because OF
this change in the plans he was put to
great expense and did much extra work
and on these grounds he puts in the
claim for $500.
Mr. Kletting would not talk about
the matter at all yesterday He did
say that he had never yet submitted
his bill, and that of course the board
could not turn it down until after he
had submitted it. 1t was learned,
though from other sources, that at a
meeting a month ago the regents Of
fered to settle with the architect on the
basis of $1,000 for his work, and that he
refused to settle on this basis, and
when he found that the regents were
infiexible on this point it is said, he
began arrangements to bring the mat
ter before the legislature. Just how
this would be done is not clear, but as
the regents will have a bill up asking
for an increased appropriation for other
buildings, Mr.. Kletting's little bill may
came in as rider. If it does the re-
gents will lay their contract with Mr..
Kletting before the legislature and the
whole case viii be opened up.

Robbed While He Slept.

Engineer VIM French Of this
city was robbed last night of the
fine new gold watch recently pre-
sented to him by the members of
the 3 of L F. The robbery was
carried on by hobo whose des-
cription and identity are I'M
known.
Mr. French was in charge Of
one of the switch engines on the
night shift last night and about
midnight the work of making up
the various trains, etc, was COM
pleted and as is customary the en-
CINE was backed to the switch OPP
posite the Miller hotel on lower
Fifth street there to await the ar
rival of another train from the
east. Mr. French did not leave
his seat in the engine but dozed
OH to sleep. How long he slept
he does not know but he was sud-
denly awakened by a tueging at
his watch chain and by the time
he was thoroughly awake he saw
a dirty and coal begrimmed hand
holding onto to the fine time
piece withdrawn from the en-
CINE cab. An alarm was soon
spread among the night employees
in the yard aud soon a bunch of
hoboes was rounded up and each
made to reveal his entire belong
ings. So far all searches have
been fruitless however, and Mr.
French has but little hope of ever
seeing the watch in which he took
SO much pride.
