dent of the Adams Express Company,
formally took up the reins Of manage
ment to-day. He said to an Evening

Company does not mean a reorganiza-
ton, or change of management in
any particular There will be no re-
moval5 in any department on my &C
count, and things will so on as they
have been going"
The fact that John Hoey, when about
to be forced out of the Company in 1891,
voted for Mr.. Weir for President in
stead of for Mr.. Henry Sanford, the
retiring executive officer. led 10 the ru-
NOR that Mr., Sanford had been turned
down to make room for the late Mr..
Hoey's friend, but Mr.. Sanford put a
quietus upon that rumor by stating that
As a matter of fact. Mr. Weir has been
practically President for two months
past, since he took the place of Vice
President Lovejoy, who Is slowly re-
covering from an attack of paralysis.

MR.. PULLMAN'S LITTLE GAME.

The latest attempt to mask scspe-
goat of the prevalent hard times ia that
Of George M. Pullman, proprietor of the
extensive car works near Chicago at the
town which bears his name, who has
ordered general reduction of the wages
of all his employees. OF Rll men in
America that are entitled to sympathy
OBJ account of the present stsguation in
business generally, this man Pullman is
entitled to the least.
When the worlds fair opened, all the
railway com paaies made reductions Oh
round-trip tickets, to enable people OF
moderate means to attend the fair.
Pullman, on the contrary, knowing
there wac to be q rush, and designing
to take advantage of tina necessities Of
the travelling public, advsnced the rates
of bertha in the sleeping cars nearly 40
per cent. The rate hence to Denver Was

unjust and unfair 0thsr cases of this

these schemers outwit themselves. They
know too much and yet not quite

tsins Pullman car, and that will side
track several thousand sleeping and din
ing cars; and should those cars remain
idle sixty days. the interest account of
the Pullman company is SO enormous
that they would not be able to pay ans
dividends for the year on the business of
the remaining ten months. That Mr.
Pullman has the right to reduce The
number Of his employees. nobody will
pretend to deny, but when a msn builds
houses and forces his employees to rent
OF him or be discharged from work, sc
Mr.. Pullman always has done, he can
not expect much sympathy from any
body.
The Pullman Oar company paid for
1893 the biggest dividends 40 per cent
per snnun) ever paid during the entire
history OF that corporation; and that,
too, after having sustained greater
losses to its rolling stock by reasons of
deiailment and collision than in any
previous year, This great dividend is
the eutgrowth Of the oppressive tax put
upon the travelling public by Pullman
and his fellow directors by an increase OF
charges that we're high enough already.
The colored porters on these ears per-
form an average OF IL hours work per
day for every day that their cars are in
motion; and all the pay they receive
from Pullman ia $40 per month. He
lets the travelling public make up the
deficiency which he pockets, in occs.
sional gratuities, to fair income. Gen
orally We are inclined to deplore strikes
as injuriDg the employer without con-
ferring any real good upon the en-
ployse. But in this case the sympathy
OF the public, if there be any, must 20
out to the strikers, for Pullman and bis
partners ars entitled to none whatever.
