On Monday a meeting of the Joint Stuck Co. directors declined to accept the Board's offer und passed a resolution calling upon the Board to carry out its agreement and notifying it that if this were not done forth: with that the Co, would proceed with the work und charge it up to the Board When queried regarding the matter, one of the officers of the Company tated' that there was ample sheeting in the old build- ing had it been kept for this purpose as might naturally have been expected.
