Pending the receipt of advice from the

If the various companies will not as
sure the commission that they will
give us free service, we will file
formal complaints against the four 'eX-
press companies, the two telegraph COM
panies, and the transfer company"
said Mr.. Bright, but until 1t Is learned
that the companies will not make con-
cessions voluntarily we will not take
the action. They have twenty days in
which to answer.
"As a private citizen l have been all
through this before and We got free de-
livery by informal action. 1t used to be
that the express companies would make
no deliveries the other side Of the
bridge, but the people of Woodley Park
get the delivery limits extended to
Twenty-ninth and Cathedral avenue.
This was done without formal action.
we hope to do the same thing in the

Resolved, That at this gathering q
Bull Run (the Blue and Gray reunionI,
a most impressive ceremony would be TO
dig a grave, broad and deep, in the soil
Of that battlefield, and thereby publicly
bury the Confederate flag. At such a
ceremony 1t would be just and proper
that the President of the United States
should preside and the commander-in-

ticipate."

nouncing the blending of the two battle
