PULLMAN CAR PROFITS,
Suit Of the Company Against
the Chicago, Milwaukee
and St. Paul.
There Is an Interesting Controversy
as to the Terms Of
Contract.

CHICAGO, ILL, May 31.-The suit Of
the Pullman Palace Car Company against
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail
road for 100000 came up before Judge
Seaman in the United States Court this
morning.
In 1882 the two companies entered into a
hfteen-year contract, which the road was
privileged to end at the expiration of five
eight or eleven years. The railroad fur.
nlshed $500, 900 and the Pullman Company
100000 for the building and equipment Of
forty-five parlor and sleeping cars, to be
run on the road. The Pullman Company
was to take charge of the operation of the
cars and each year render an accounting
and make division of the profits accord.
ing to the interests of each.
The contract provided that at the end OF
five, eight or eleven years, the railroad
could pay the Pullman Company the sum
OF 500, 600 and become sole owners of the
cars and the service. At the expiration OF
the eight years, in 1890, the railroad gave
notice to the Pullman Company of its in
tention to buy out the latter.
The Pullman Company claimed sos, 200
for their fourth interest, and the
railroad insisted on deducting
several thousand dollars for dam ages
to the cars. This was not
allowed and now the Pullman Company is
suing for 100000 damages, the st. Paul
road being willing to compromise for q
fourteenth of that sum.
In addition to the suit now ON trial there
is one by the railroad company against
the Pullman pending on the chancery
docket, asking for an order compelling the
Pullman Company to render an accounting
for the expenses of operation during the
eight years the contract was in force. The
hearing of the case will probably take a
week or more.

the former was the heaviest to be obtained.
Rainey stood first with forty-five feet and
nine inches to his credit; Broughton sec
ond with forty-one feet; Henderson third,
thirty-eight feet two inches.
In the half-mile scratch bicycle race,
class A, Wade, Eckhardt and Hickory en-
tered. Wade first, 1:12 2-5; Eckhardt
second.
c. R. Broughton, o. P. Giddlngs and
Fayette Birtch competed in the foot race,
22Oyard dash, Broughton coming in first

The last and most important event on
the programme was the bicycle race, five
mile handicap, ]. Eckhardt of Santa Bar
bara and Louis Wade of Ventura being
scratch men, Overaa 220-yard handicap,
and |. Spencer 400 yards. This was closely
contested, Spencer holding the lead till the
fourteenth lap, when Wade caught him.
Meanwhile Eckhardt was trying to over
take Overaa, and at the end of the
eighteenth lap Overaa was thrown vio-
lently from his wheel, breaking his collar
bone. 1t is claimed that Eckhardt crowded
him., an accusation which the latter s
friends deny. Eckhardt won The race in
Ia min. 81 sec.
AT the close o. P. Giddings entertained
the spectators with some clever pole vault
ing, scoring ten feet six inches and beating
the Southern California record by one inch.

Been Sustained.

PHOENIX, ARIz., May 31.-The investi-
CATION of Governor Hughes will close to-
morrow, after a session of thirty days.
Inspector Duncan left tonight for Tuscon,
while Judge Olive will spend Monday at
Tucson, where testimony will be taken for
one day.
Democrats interested claim that every
material charge has been sustained.
Yesterday and to-day Hon. J. C. Herndon,
the Democratic candidate for delegate to
Congress last fall, was before the COM
mittee.
The inquiry has been conducted behind
locked doors, yet much evidence has been
carried out by witnesses who had their
own stenographers present. Some ap.
pointees to-day swore they divided their
salary with John T. Hughes, son of and
private secretary to the Governor. A
speedy removal is expected, for it is cur
rently reported that the inspectors are
satisfied that malfeasance in office and in
fidelity to the Democratic party have been
established.

S1tIuS IultS, ny .. boy

unanimous adoption, after discussion, OF
the following resolutions on the matter OF
consolidating auction sales rooms in East
ern cities:
WHEREAS, We learn that there is movement
on foot to establish rival auction sales room
in the city of New York, thereby perpetuating

Assem- blcd in convention in Yuba City, under
the auspices OF the State Horticultural Society,

call upon fruit-growers and shippers to stand
by the pledge taken at the November conven-
ton, and TO withhold their business and their
support from those engaged in the effort to
defeat the desired end of the fruit-growers.

Packing Sos,onaa Cherries.

HEALDSBURG, CAL, May 81. - The
Russian River Packing-house has COM
menced packing cherries. One hundred
men are at present employed and the force
will be increased as soon as the fruit
ripens. The cherry crop in Sonoma
County is almost total failure and will
not be over tenth as great as last year.
The fruit is bringing cents per pound.
The north wind which has been blowing
the past few days is injuring the crops and
from present indications the output for
the season from Sonoma orchards will be
no greater than last year, with an increase
in area of 1000 acres.
During the past week nineteen carloads
of wine and three carloads of fruit have
been moved from this place. The indica-
tons are that there will be heavy grape
crop. Haying has commenced and the
crop is heavy.
