MERGER CASE DECIDED
INJUNCTION AGAINST THE PULLMAN
CAR COMPANY REFUSED.
Judge TuIey of Opinion 1t Did Not
Violate Antitrust Law in Buying
the Wagner Company.

CHICAGO. Jan. 6.-Judge Tuley in the
Circuit Court to-day declined 10 issue the
injunction against the Pullman Palace Car
Company asked for by Truman A. Taylor,
who sought 10 have that company re-
strained from purchasing the stock of the
Wagner Sleeping Car Company with $1,000
shares of Pullman stock.
Mr.. Taylor's attempt TO defeat the
merger took the form of petition
seeking to enjoin the Pullman Palace Car
Company from giving TO stockholders of
the Wagner Company 100000 shares in the
consolidated concern, these being valued
at s2O,OoO,OOO His action was taken follow
ing the meeting of Dec. o. 1S99 when the
Pullman Palace Car Company agreed to
purchase the Wagner Companys entire
equipment and business to change the name
of the expanded corporation to the Pullman
Company and TO increase the stock from
So. .OOO,O 900 to s74.OOO.OOO. So many arguments
were advanced by the petitioner that Judge
Tuiey felt the need of much time 10 prop
erly consider the matter and has devoted
all possible attention TO IL during the past
two years. His decision in almost every
point is against Mr.. Taylor.
Mr.. Taylor alleged that the Pullman peo-
pie had no right. under the law of the Ma
tion and the State, to buy the Wagner
company. he SAID the company was en-
deavoring to create a trust and monopoly
in the sleeping car and parlor car business
OF the country. and preparing TO limit and
reduce the operation and number of cars
and 10 regulate prices. He further alleged
that the Wagner Company had not the
right 20 dispose of its property under the
laws of New York as ii would thus dis
able itself from performing the duties for
which IT was organized.
In regard 10 the antitrust argument
made in the petition and enlarged upon by
counsel, Judge Tuley held that the trans
action by which the two companies became
one was practically analogous to the ordi-
nary business transaction OF one man buy
ing out the business of another

MUST KEEP OFF STREETS
FOREIGN SOLDIERS CANNOT ROAM
AT WILL IN PEKING TODAY.
Will BE Confined to Quarters while
the Court Is Entering the City-Le-
gationers to See the Show.

PEKING, Jan. 6.-The Chinese officials
have requested the ministers Of the powers
to keep the legation guards within their
quarters tomorrow in order to prevent the
possibility OF collision between the Chinese
and foreign troops on the occasion of the
courts return to Peking. The ministers
will comply
The families of the foreign diplomats will
occupy the buildings which the Chinese gov
ernment has rendered them for the purpose
of viewing the parade. There is much crit
icism OF this course among the foreigners
who not satisfied with the fact that the
ministers alone are to remain in the lega-
tIo.... They iefieve the event should be
completely ignored. They say the presence
of any members of the legations will be
construed being a sort of homage to the
court. and will be thus proclaimed among
the people
The foreigners are divided into two fac
tions concerning the future relations of the
diplomats with the court, one holding that
the relations should be limited to the full
fillment of the most formal and obligatory
ceremonies and the other holding that in
official and social relations the ministers
should endeavor to be more intimate with
the court than formerly and should meet all
Chinese advances in the most friendly
spirit
Many foreign soldiers and a few officers
to-day violated the governments request to
keep off the streets which have been cleaned
and decorated for the royal procession
This is likely to create resentment.
