Responsible.

Responsible.
Sherman, Texas, December a1.--1t Il
learned that Messrs. N w. Harris & Co OF
Chicago, the firm with whom the city of
Sherman recently closed deal for the sale
Of $4,000 Of the recent $4,000 issue OF
water and sewer hetterment bonds, seeks
to annul the deal and declare It Oh.
A. A, Fielder today. in answer 10 a re
quest for status of the situation, made
this statement: "Messrs Harris & Co
claim to be advised by their attorney Of a
hitch upon which there has been a reverse
ruling in a case heid by them to be a par
allel one Of this Sherman issue. From this
opinion the city OF sherman under legal
advice differs. and shall contend that the
sale Is In fact contaminated and that
MessrE. Harris a. Co. are now debtors OF
the city In the amount Of the purchase price
agreed upon, and shall further contend
that they are responsible in addition for
the interest accruing during the tenure OF
the delay they are causing. That the city
has proceeded In accordance with the plain
letter and spirit OF law, ! haven't the least
doubt, aud the Chicago people will have 10
live MP 70 their COMPACT IL tho law can
compel them to do So
