THAT $4,000 CLAIM.

Dubois & Williams Little Bill viii Come
Before the City Council.
The information in regard to the claim of
Du Bots & Williams, the conduit contract
ors, for $4,000, which was first given to
the public through the columns of The
HERALD, created quite sensation. Tue
contractors and their attorney, Col. Symes,
insist that the changes in plans and mate
rails ordered by City Engineer Doremus
has entailed upon them loss of $4,000
and they promise TO make it interesting for
the corporation before they are through.
The matter will come before the city coun-
Gil at its next meeting. One OF the city
fathers stated to HERALD reporter yes
terday that the contractors would not be
able to realize anything on their claim. He
believed that they had lost considerable
money on their contract, but thought it
was entirely due to the fact that their bid
was TOO low to be profitable by about
$50. 00O

The Confederate Flag Incident at Baird, Texa,

The Confederate Flag Incident at Baird Texas
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-First Assistant
Postmaster General Whitfield has received
from the postmaster at Baird, Allan county,
Texas, an explanation of the confederate
flag incident. He said at the time the
county fair was in progress the citizens
decorated and displayed as many flags as
they could obtain. The supply of United
States flags became exhausted and the
owner of the building in which the post
Office is located procured some bunting and
had his sister make flag. With only i'm
perfect knowledge how the United States
flag is fashioned the result OF her
labor was complete failure, ex-
cept as a display of bunting. Iu-
stead of thirteen stripes her flag had
only three with nine stars in a blue field
but 1t was hoisted over the postoffice build
ing. General Whitfield, however is in
possession of the affidavits of five reput-
able people who declare that on several
specified dates they saw the confederate
flag flying over the postoffce building and
were told by the citizens of the town it was
the confederate flag, but inasmuch as the
postmaster declared the flag was not con-
1ederate flag and not purposely made 10
represent ii, and expresses deep regret he
has done anything that could be construed
as dsloyal act toward the government,
Whitfield is inclined to let the incident
pass.
