ances. once enjoyed the distinction OF

WILL GO TO BAT
WITH PULLMAN CO.

j. Grant Crumley of Tonopah, who
alleges that clothed in the dignity of
a pair of purple patamas he was
forced to abandon a stateroom in a
Pullman on the Tonopah- Goldfield
run several months ago, and march
through the car to another berth, ar
rived from the south last evening pre-
pared to relate his experiences to "a a
special examiner of the interstate
commerce commission who is expect
ed to arrive in Reno today for the
purpose of delying into the propriety
OF such an occurrence
Crumley recently filed suit against
the Pullman company and the rail-
road company for damages in com.
pensation for the indignities and al.
legged breach of contract. This
suit will be tried In the federal court
but in the meantime a complaint is
pending before athe interstate com
merce commission asking a finding
that such a rule or custom is unrea-
sonable and unwarranted. 1t ap-
pears there is a rule of the Pullman
company that when a man takes a
compartment in sleeping car other
than an ordinary berth and he is the
sole occupant, he must be provided
with two railroad tickets It is al
legged that the reason for the rule is
that otherwise exclusive persons
would rent an entire compartment or
section, paying the Pullman com
pany but by that method cutting down
by one the number of persons riding
on the railroad train, thus contrihut-
ing to loss OF efficiency.
George Wingaeld, as the result Of
a somewhat similar experience with
the Pullman company some time ago,
has also fled a complaint with the
Interstate commerce commission and
both complaints will be examined into
while the special examiner is here
At first 1t was arranged that the
hearing be had on December IL, but
Crumley was advised yesterday that
he would be heard today if he could
arrive in Reno in time. Journal

WM. SHORT HAS
Fine CATTLE
30 Head Average 100 Pounds In
Weight At TWO Years
OF AgeS

William S. Short, of Ruby Valley,
is feeding at his Shorthor9 ranch, one
of the incest lunches of cattle ever
seen in the county. In fact. everyone
who has seen them say that they are
the best ever seen. Mr.. Short makes
a speciality of raising Shorthorn cattle
and has taken the premium for fine
cattle several times. However, he
thinks that this herd is the best he
has ever raised. The bunch he is now
fattening, are two-year-old Durhams
and the whole herd of 80 head aver
age HOO pounds. They are all. per-
feet specimens and several, men from
this city who have seen the herd say
that never in their lives have they
seen finer specimens. Mr.. Short is
naturally proud of his stock and never
lets an opportunity slip to add to the
breeding of it.
