George NJ. Pullman, millionaire pal
ace car builder and owner of the town
of Pullman, ILL.,, and president of the
company which has a big plant in VII
mington, died this morning at his
handsome residence in Chicago.
His life was one Of the most remark
able of all American geniuses. Born in
central New York in 1881, he grew up
without wealth, was educated without
help, with a widowed mother 10 sup
port, he went to Chicago and at once
engaged in the great enterprise OF rails
ing the houses there from six to four
feet above their level. He made both
reputation and money.
But when he became conscious that
the public must have an improved sys-
tenn of long distance travel was when
he began to grow famous.
In 1857 he made a contract with Gov
ernor Madison for the use of one OF the
old shops of the Chicago and Alton
railroad and began to fit up two pas
senger cars with sleeping accommoda'
tions. Thus in an old workshop h'
completed the first Pullman sleeping
car.
In 1863 he completed the first com
bined parlor and sleeping car and call
ed il the Pioneer. This car was value'
ait $4,000. Then a lease was mad
with the Michigan Central by which al
the trains on that road we're run Pull
man cars. Then it was that the cream
Of travel came toward the Michigan
Central. the Pullman Company wa
formed and long distance railroadlni
was revolutiOnized.
In 1880 he planned more house, -Dullo
ing enterprises and the town OF Pun
man was built.
Mr. pullman was once interviewed b.
a Chicago newspaper upon the suDJec
of poverty and wealth. =,
"Mr Pullman" said the reporter,

when. as a young man, you came nom
all grimy, and. after a bath. roihpe'

were happy days, indeed. Anu uilen

merely out of curiosity. The unfortu-

PITTsBUBeH, Pa, July 2s.-Late yes
terday afternoon the special commit
tee of the mine operators conference
reported the uniformity agreement
with new clauses added by the arbi-
traitors whereupon w. P. Rend, in pre-
senting q minority report, denounced
what he called the "bunco intention"
of the meeting. He said that Gen.
Little had misled him IS to the pur-
pose of the meeting. He then pre-
sented resolutions recibing the ear
nest desire of the operators to bring
the strike to an end, deploring the
poverty and misery of the vast army
of miners and their families, calling
for Joint conference of miners and
employers and proposing an arbitra-
tion tribunal of three United States
judges or three men of national repute
having the country's confidence. The
present uniformity proposition" was
denounced as used to "cloak sham
schemes and transparent frauds" and
honest weights and measures, and
cash payments were called for. FL
na}ly it was declared chat the operators
were willing to advance wages, but
were unable to advance them % per
cent. above prices now paid by one
large coal company which furnished
the chief obstacle to settlement. The
chairman asked to have some parts of
the minority report eliminated, but
Rend refused to agree to this and left
the hall. w. P. DeArmitt said he
wanted 1t distinctly understood that
the call to adopt uniformity did
not have anything to do with the
strike, as he did not propose to
arbitrate anything while under 6re,
nor admit that the operators were
towards. The progress so far is so
little that it is believed that it will be
several weeks before an agreement
satisfactory to 95 per cent. of the
operators of the district, necessary tie
