Abstract
A MEETING of the members of the Yorkshire College of Science was held on Monday at Leeds. A sum of 56,000l. has now been promised in donations, and the endowments from the Akroyd Foundation, the Clothworkers' Company, and the bequest of the late Mr. Brown would, if capitalised, represent a further sum of about 20,000l. On the question of the proposed new university the committee reported that the college had held friendly communications with the authorities of Owens College, but could not at present make them the subject of a public report. Mr. Baines stated that the number of students this year was 355, as compared with 288 last year.
