Pueblo. Jan. 1.-THE Y VI. c. A
controversy came to a final conclu-
sion tonight when the committee OF
thirty. which raised building fund
OF Sill 900 for the erection OF build
ing, gave formal notice to the old
board OF directors that unless IL re-
voked its former action resembling
resolution by which the members had
agreed 10 resign when the money was
raised. the pledges will be returned
to subscribers not later than Janu-
airy 20.
The old board OF directors promptly
rejected this proposal. and both the
committee of thirty and the old board
left tonight's meeting fully under
standing that unless some unforeseen
circumstance arises the whole thing
will be declared of.
The next move probably will be an
effort by the old board OF directors to
collect on the subscriptions. select
site and erect a building. They have
issued an appeal TO the subscribers
TO pay their money to the treasurer
Of the old board.
The committee OF thirty sets forth
that the old board fully agreed to re-
sign when this committee of thirty
had succeeded in making a success
