That's the UTF-8 byte order mark. I guess Tika should be able to deal
with that, but AFAICT it currently doesn't. Would you mind filing a
bug report about this?

Hmm, can you verify that the returned input stream actually contains
what you expect it to?
Also, you can check the difference of how Tika detects full files
(with the extra file name hint) and plain byte streams by comparing
the output of the following two commands:
java -jar tika-app-1.1.jar --detect sample_fixed.wde
java -jar tika-app-1.1.jar --detect < sample_fixed.wde
