ITS CHARTER IN PERIL.
QUO warranto Proceedings Begun Against
Pullman Company.

Pullman Company.
CHICAGO, Aug "a Saturday after
noon Attorney General Maloney APP
peared IN the office OF the circuit clerk
OF Cook county and filed petition
covering sixty pages OF typewrit-
ten legal cap for bill in
equity against the Pullman Pal
ace Car company calling upon
IL 10 show cause why il should not be
prohibited from further doing business
under the laws OF the state. The petit
tion sets forth that il has violated the
franchises conferred upon il by the
state in numerous particulars and lays
stress upon the fact that il is conduct
ing hotel business and real estate
business at Pullman without warrant

The Pullman company is charged
with illegally owning a controll-
ing interest in the Allen Paper
Car Wheel company, and with
wrongfully exercising the pow
ers Of municipal corporation
in furnishing dwellings, light,
water, heatand provisions 70 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 in the Union Foundry and Pull
man Car Wheel company, is made a
parallel charge 60 that i'm reference TO
the Allen Paper Car Wheel company.
The court Is informed that the com
pany has not regarded the limitations
as TO its holding OF real estate, but has
usurped the right 20 buy and own
large tracts in and about Chicago, and
has erected churches, schoolhouses,
theaters. hotels and dwelling houses
and business block. This prop
crty Is being rented for large
sums, the petition recited, and
IL is averred that such holdings and
rentals are violations Of the conditions
OF the charter, not being necessary for
the prosecution of its business
