This is the last day which Contrac-
for Fleet Jones has in which to re-
sun,e work on the Elks new theater.
TN to this afternoon he had not re
sumed work and it is probable that he
will not, though he has the rest OF
the day to put in some work.
Mr.. J. A. Thompson. representa-
five of the United States Fidelity and
Guaranty company arrived in the city
this morning and will be on the scene
until some disposition has been made
of the matter or until some course to
he pursued has been adopted.
The proposition is statu quo at
nresent, and the day will have to
mass before anything further is done
in the premises. 1t is one of the
most complicated affairs which could
eyist. The Elks consider the bonding
company absolutely liable to them.
The bonding company, it is under
stood. are non-committal as to their
liability. but maintain that the local
indemnitors, H. c. McGaughy, J. S.
Sanders, John H. Dellmon, jr., and
/. l.. Campbell, are liable if there be
any liability.
1t is not known what mode of pro-
cedure will be adopted tomorrow. Ii

mittee will declare the contract for
feited. Then it will be up to the
bonding company and the local in
demnitors. When it rea ches them it
can not be anticipated what Will be
done
The bond company may take the
contract and finish the building. sub
let the contract or empower the build
work. 1t is very probable that the
bonding company will not put them
selves in any attitude where they shift
any liability which the local indemni
tors may sustain. Their plan for
settling the difficulty, it is understood,
providing Contractor Jones does not
resume work, is to have the local in
demintors to go ahead with the work
and finish it themselves They claim,
it is said, that the local indemnitors
are liable if there be any liability,
and will eventually have to pay for
the work. All being supply men, the
bonding company claims, it is said,
they can complete the work much
cheaper than any one else, and that
it would be money in the pockets OF
the indemnitors for them to take the
contract. There are several different
phases to the unfortunate affair, and
it is to be hoped that some amicable
settlement may be reached.
