Tint Nrws is happy to stato that tho
opera liouso troubles now scorn in a fair
way toward a sottloinent At an ad
journed mooting of creditors hold last
ovoning which was also attondod by
Messrs A L Wigtouand W II Wig
ton it was decided to place tho house in
tho hands of a board of trustoos who
nro to mauago it until suoh a time as all
local claims against it havo been settled
Tho board of directors was formod as
follows E A Bullock president
Herman Gorecko vico president H B
Wellor secretary Al Degner treas
urer and W II Wigton By stipula
tion among tho parties interested tho
board of directors is to havo full finan
cial ohargo of tho property and all
rovonuo recoivod will bo expended undor
direction of tho board
It was ttecided that tho liouso ought
to bo comploted and it is proposed to do
this and finish furnishing it Tho plan
detormiued upon is to finish and furnish
the liouso complcto in time for another
opouing For this advance seats will
bo sold and a canvass of the city will bo
commenced right away to sue how tho
business men feel in regard to tho mat
tir It was stated by the Messrs Wig
ton thnt if 500 is raised for tho
opening they will then not only bo ablo
to comploto nnd furnish tho liouso but
thoy will bo ablo to to pay every claim
against tho property As soon as tho
canvass which is to bo niado by tho
bonrd of trustees Miows that a sufficient
number of seats havo boon subscribed to
warrant the belief that the oponing will
be libornlly patronized work will bo
commenced at onco to comploto tho
building and furnish it in anappropriato
manner
It is the judgment of The News that
tho Messrs Wigton desiro to do tho fair
thing in regard to tho opora house aud
thoro is no doubt but that they ought to
bo met half way It is not bolioved
that thoy are responsible for tho methods
used by Mr Warrant in tho construc
tion of tho liouso as thoy aro unques
tionably greater sufferers from his work
than tho city Tho city will havo a
first class opera house when a few more
finishing touches aro put upon it and
tho woll known liberality of Norfolks
public spirited men should come to tho
front in tho emergency which now ex
