GAR COMPANY
!. c. c. Gives Authority to Issue
165, 900 Shares of Stock to
Make Purchase.
BY International News Service.

The Pullman Company was today
granted authority by the Interstate
Commerce Commission to issue 1885,
900 shares of capital stock for the
purpose of acquiring the assets Of the
Haskell & Barker Car Company. of
New York. which operates a plant at
Michigan City, Ind.
The Pullman Company in its petit
don said that an investigation showed
the assets Of the car manufacturing
company to be $1S.615,547. The value
Of the plant and property, at cost,
was listed at $7,277.209. Depreciation
deducted left q net value of $685. 2S.
The net book value Of the property
bought by the Pullman Company, in
GLIDING cash and security items. was
SIC, 90S,528
The Commission, in its decision,
said that objection was made to the
purchase by Los Angeles Cali in
terests on the ground that the money
to be paid for the car company assets
was excessive and that II would result
in higher charges to the public for
Pullman Company service. The COM
mission apparently waived these
objections aside as not having good
basis.
The Pullman Company Informed
the commission that to carry out
the terms of the agreement to pur.
chase 1t proposed to increase its su-
thorized capital stock from $120. 000,-
600 to $135, 1000, 900. The Pullman
Company said that of its authorized
capital stock Of $3.50, 000. 900. there
is q total Of $116,745, 900 outstanding
In the hands Of the public. The re.
mainder Of the stock, the com, any
said, is held in it's treasury. The
Pullman Company's listed assets Of
1888 .24S,000 includes 1850 palace
cars and equipment Of an estimated
value Of $14S, 935, 900.
