The Great Northern passenger train
that was held up by tramps at Anoka
had quite an experience. The tramps
were well acquainted with what to do,
and as the train approached the yard
limits displayed the danger signal and
the train came to standstill. Two
hundred dirty, unkempt, ragamufins
scrambled aboard, and didn't intend to
pay for their fare either. By resolute
stands taken by the trains crew, the
men were finally persuaded to get off,
and board a freight.

ITS CHARTER IN PERIL.
Quo Warranto Proceedings Begun Agsinss
Pullman Company.

Pullman Company.
CHICAGO, Aug. 14.-Saturday after
noon Attorney General Maloney ap-
peared in the office of the circuit clerk
of Cook county and fled q petition
covering sixty pages of typewrit-
ten legal cap for a bill in
equity against the Pullman Pal
ace Car company. calling upon
it to show cause why it should not be
prohibited from furtherdoing business
under the laws Of the state. The petit
ton sets forth that it has violated the
franchises conferred upon it by the
state in numerous particulars and lays
stress upon the fact that it is conduct
ing hotel business and real estate
business at Pullman without warrant
of law. x
The Pullman company is charged
with illegally owning controll-
ing interest in the Allen Paper
Car Wheel company, and with
,vrongfully exercising the pow
ers of . municipal corporation
in furnishing dwellings, light,
water, heatand provisions to the resi-
dents of Pullman. The petition also
charges that in the possession of the
real estate and buildings in Pullman
and Chicago outside its manufacturing
plant, and for other purposes than the
transaction of its lawful chartered
business, it is violating its corporate
rights. The holding Of a majority of
stock inthe Union Foundry and Pull
man Car Wheel company, is made 2
Eparalleleharge TO that in reference to
the Allen Paper Car Wheel company.
The court is informed that the COM
pany has not regarded the limitations
as to it's holding of real estate, but has
usurped the right to buy and own
large tracts in and about Chicago, and
has erected churches, schoolhouses,
theaters, hotels and dwelling houses
and q business block. This prop
erty is being rented for large
sums, the petition recited, and
lit is everred that such holdings and
rentals are violations of the conditions
Of the charter, not being necessary for
the prosecution Of its business.
