ing instructed the architects and fav
ored contractors to confer together
and make the usual revisions that
are incident to the letting of the con
tract for any large Structure. The
board will meet akaln In seevral
weeks and confidently expects to let
the contract at that time.
"While the hotel \l.ill cost some
what In excess of the estimate made
last fall, the increase will not be ab
normal, and the men of affairs who
have put a large amount of money
into the company are flrmly com
mitted to carrying out of the project
and will see it through without delay.
None of the bids submitted at the
meeting entailed adding an extra
half million to the cost to the hotel.
"The affairs of the hotel company
