TOWN OF PULLMAN TO BE SOLD.
Under the Decree of Court the Model
Town VIII Cease to Exist as
Separate MunicipaIity.

Chicago, Ill.,, May 23.-The final de-
cree in the quo warranto proceedings
against the Pullman Palace Car Co.
has been entered in the circuit court
by Judge Baker. By it's terms the
company has five years in which to dis
pose of the $4,000 residences i'll the
''Model Town." the 16 acres of vacant
lots in the town, the so acres of streets,
alleys and parks, the gas, water and
sewer works, the Hotel Florence, two
churches, the Arcade building and the
market hall.
The company is given one year in
which to cease to exercise all munich
pal functions, such as the operating of
water, gas, steam and sewerage plants
Within one year also it must dispose
of the Pullman Iron and Steel Co. The
company will retain its car shops and
surrounding buildings at Michigan ev-
enue and Adams street and 25 acres of
land north of Pullman, held for extern
sion purposes.
The company no longer owns the
brick yard. the Southern Palace Car
Co, the Union Foundry and Wheel Co.
and IT'S acres of land near Lake Calu-
met. The court holds jurisdiction UNI
til the last piece of property has been
sold If any is not disposed of within
the stipulated periods the attorney
general may appear in court and oh
tain an order of sale by the state.
At the end of a year the city of Chi
cago, by the terms of the decree, may
exercise it's municipal functions in
furnishing water and sewerage facili-
ties to the town of Pullman. The gas
plant win be opened by other interests
and the streets and alleys of Pullman
will be free to all. The county board
of assessors will have the privilege of
assessing the property of Pullman in
the regular way instead of enrolling
it as SO many acres of land.
President Robert t. Lincoln says he
does not know when the town proper
ty will be offered for sale, whether in
whole or in part, and that the board of
directors has not even considered the
matter. Plans were prepared some
three months ago for the sale of the
houses to the workmen in the ear
shops, but have not been approved by
the executive committee
