An Atlanta special says that the Pull
man Company has promised to pay the
bill due the state for sleeping and palace
car business done in Georgia, and for
which Comptroller Wright selzed parlor
car. But that VIII not let the company
off scot free, for it is discovered that ever
since the advent of the cOmpan, into this
State ii has received Sc. per mile from the
numerous lines over which the Pullman
cars run for each car. The railroads, ex-
cept the Central, do not own sleepers. ana
so they have to pay bonus to the Pull
man Company for use of their cars, be-
sides the Pullman Company receiving the
extra charge Tor berths and seats, the
railroads getting only the price of the
regular ticket.
TINS three cents per mile for a goodly
number OF years has netted a very hand
some sum to the Pullman Company. No
return has ever been made to the State OF
these receipts, which are taxable. Comp
trOller Wright, it Is said, is preparing 60
raid the Pullman treasury for the money
so due.
