buildings at the Farm, and when the
special bill came up this afternoon
McKesson moved to reinstate the
$100,000 for the Engineering building
and cut out that sum for tho Farm
buildings.
After a long debate tho motion mis
defeated, 11 to 16, and there will bo
no Engineering building, but tho State
Farm will get a total of $150,00 for
new structures.
Although the senate did not make
a direct oppropriatlon for a Univer
sity Engineering building there is a
possibility that money will bo secured
from the mill levy for such a structure.
The fact the $150,000 goes to the State
Farm may all own enough money to be
saved from the regular levy for tho
Engineering building.
Senators McKesson, Burns and
Sackett were active In trying to se
cure an appropriation for tho -University
building yesterday but their ef
forts were in vain against the in
fluence of Senators Aldrlch and Pat
rick who opposed the bill.
