except that the state of Missouri will be in
cluded in the Department OF the Missouri
instead of in the Department of Texas.
The change will involve a considerable
Encouragement of military commands. and
several major generals now in command of
divisions including two more depart
ments, will command single departments.
That applies to Mai. Gen. Grant, command

tive series were placed on sale ia post

When the stamp windows opened at 6
o clock at the main Office there were many
persons waiting to make purchases. The
man who had the honor of buying the very
first sold in this city was Andrew X. Lynn,
an employee of the stamp division of the
Post Office Department. A colored mes
senger named Patterson made the second
purchase.
In spite of the fact that the new stamps
cally for them, about $3.50 twos and 1900
ones had been sold al the main Office up to
a late hour this afternoon.
The one-cent stamp is green and con-
tains picture of Capt. John Smith In mil
itary garb, with the dates of his birth and
cahontas and Powhatan appear in the
upper corners. The twos are red and show
the landing of the first jamestown settlers
in 1907. The title of the engraving is
Founding of jamestown, 100"
A blue five-cent stamp. with picture Of
Pocahontas, is to be on sale in few days,

DISPUTATION ENDED
COMMISSIONERS TODAY AWARD
CONTRACTS FOR PAVING.

The board of Commissioners settled the
dispute over the contract for laying asphalt
pavements with vitrified brick cutters and
asphalt pavements without the brick gut
tiers today by awarding the contract for the
streets with brick cutters to the Crawford
Paving Company and the contract for
streets without the brick cutters to the
Brennan Construction Company. both of
this city. These contracts amount to S75-
coo.
In awarding these contracts the Commits
sioners contend that they have acted &C
cording to the specifications and have
awarded the work TO the lowest bidders In
each case. About ten days ago when Com
missioner Biddle recommended the award
ing of the contracts in this manner the
Brennan Construction Company protested
on the ground that il was the lowest bid
der for the laying of asphalt pavements re-
gardlesS of the brick cutters. and that in
view of this should be given the entire con-
tract, and that the Crawford Company, the
lowest bidder for the vitrfied brick, should
be given only the laying of the cutters.
In making his final motion upon the case
Commissioner Bidde stated that in award
ing the contracts, as stated the Commits
SionerS are acting in the interest of the Dis
trict and not in the interest of the con-
tractor. He has been backed up in his
position by Commissioner Macfarland. who
believes the work should be divided accord
ing to the specifications and TO the lowest
bidders.
Commissioner West took issue with his
colleagues and contends that the Brennan
Company should} be awarded the contract
for the entire asphalt work. irrespective of
whether the specifications for streets to be
paved called fer vitriiied brick cutters Oh
not.
Commissioner Biddle explains in detail his
action for awarding the contract in the
manner mentioned i'll statement filed with
the papers,
