mountains of North Carolina in Mr..
Bragg's automobile, they met with an
accident on the outskirts of Green

oiilcers came up and discovered the

quantity of whiskey. Charges were
made against the men and they were
summoned to apepar in the federal

not been paid. A preleminary was
granted them Wednesday and they
were bound over to the April term of
the federal court.
The affair is very peculiar one i'm
that while the government seems to
nave technically pretty good case

PULLMAN SPHINX
DNUI .GES ALI1TLE
Dictates Terms to Railroads, Has Paid Per Cent Aver
age Cash Dividend, and Increased Value of
Shares Hundredfold
By JUDSoN C. wELLIvER.

The Pullman Company has made a
report to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission 1t is the first ever, and is caus-
ing much discourse among officers of
| the commission.
There is a standard classic about the
sleeping car monopoly. around the F
street offices of the commission. A GER
tain gentleman, now a commission Of
fetal, was employed in the legal depart
ment of an important railroad. He got
interested in the railroads contract with
the Pullmn Company, and decided that
the Pullman outfit was getting all the
profits that ought to go to the rail-
road. He went to the president of the
road.
We're paying more than we ought
TO for the privilege of hauling sleeping
cars over the line he said.
DO you think so?" inquired the rail-
road executive
Sure of it: been looking into the ac-
counts. Can't we start something to
abrogate the contract and get a better
one?"
You interest me-" replied the presi-
dent. What is your plan"
Looked Like Outrage.
The lawyer replied that 1t looked to
him like an outrage for the railroad
actually to pay the Pullman Company
cents per mile for the fun of hauling
sleepers over the road, while the Pull
man people got all the earnings of the
cars.
Il have thought so, too. at times"
admitted the president reminiscently.
Let me tell you about It
Years ago when I first came here I
was enthusiastic, like you. I decided
that we were being robbed by the Pull
man Company. and told the board of
directors so. They listened, but didn't
seem much interested. I urged my
point, and finally the chairman said:
1--WE rather sympathize with your
views, but can't do anything about 1t.
You see, the Pullman Company Is the
biggest stockholder in this railroad
And" continued the president, lit is
still the biggest stockholder in the road,
and II you and 1 start anything 1t will
probably be able to get us fired"
Whereupon that particular reform
campaign was dropped.

claimed that ii was not a railroad:
not a carrier; not subject to Federal
regulation. 1t claimed to be a hotel

wheels. But 1t has finally decided to
tell about Its business, and 1t relates
| some interesting incidents.
The company started nearly fifty
years ago with $1.250,000 capital. II
has never had any new capital paid
| In except from earnings. Stock div
! idends have increased its capital till
1t is now 1920, ,000, 900. A man who
owned $1,000 of its capital in the be-
ginning would have drawn down an
year ever since, and incidentally had
his capital increased to 100000.
Last year the company gathered in
$33, ,334,07S, from the operation of
5.2S3 cars. 1t paid per cent cash
stock. The only roads in whose sleep
ing cars this company has no interest
are the st. Paul. the New Haven, and
the Great Northern. The company
builds its own cars, and many others;
tries.
Vanderbilt Interest Strong.
A steel Pullman OF the most mod
ern type costs $24,124; of the old
wooden type, $14.722. People don't
get telescoped or burned up in the
steel cars, but they come high and
have less of the North German Lloyd
style of ornamentation about them.
There are in operation many Of the
old fashioned Pullmans with solid
black walnut carved woodwork that
could not be duplicated today except
for small fortunes.
The average Pullman earns a profit
per day of $7.62. The report fails to
state anything as to the wages of
porters, or the amount the public pays
them for having its shoes shined.
The New York Central-Vanderbilt
group of capitalists are especially
strong in the Pullman company. This
Is because the New York Central used
to control the Wagner Palace Car
Company. which the Pullman bought.
exchanging $20.000,000 of Pullman
stock for the Wagner business, cars,
plant, etc. This let in the New York
Central crowd, and they have been
strong in Pullman ever since. The
financial concerns of Pullman. how
ever, have been so strong that IT Is
able to defy railway companies, and
makes practically its own terms with
them.
Last year the Interstate Commerce
Commission compelled a reduction of
upper berth rates, which was the first
real evidence the Pullman company
had ever discovered that after all 1t
was merely mortal, and subject TO
disa bilities like other human institu
tions.
