The two big men who head the
Pullman sleeping car company are
sick, so sick they can't think or talk,
so sick they can't come to Chicago
and answer questions before the U. S.
industrial relations commission. That
is what they say. and their doctors
send certificates saying it. The two
men are Robert T. Lincoln, chairman
John S. Runnels, president.
board of directors Pullman Co., and
Chairman Frank P. Walsh of the
commission says it will be decided
today or tomorrow whether the two
multi-millionaires shall be compelled
to come to Chicago. 1t is known that
Lincoln plays golf every day, has at
tended meetings of the Pullman
board of directors the past few years,
draws salary of $1,000 year and
has his brain and tongue in fairly
good shape, so that he can testify if
he wants to. 1t may be inconvenient,
but it is not impossible for him to
come to Chicago and explain why the
son of President Abraham Lincoln is
at the head of corporation that re-
fuses to let the workmen organize.
While the commission is quietly go
ing ahead with real hearing, dig
ging into bottom facts, the Herald,
Tribune and News are all delivering
attacks on Walsh for his lack of Gu
dicial poise" The hearings at Hotel
Sherman are not enough of a polite,

pres. Markham of the Illinois Cen

Nearly all newspapers in that terri

"Pres. Markham was mistaken in
his statement that the grand officers

The men must vote on a strike. In
five of the shopmen's unions their
law is that two-thirds of the men

union requires a three-fourths vote.
